Reply #62: What bullshit! [View All]

How do you know what his positions were the day before on any of those things? Yet, you are assuming that it was not. And your cannard about the IWR...

First, have you even read the resolution? It isn't exactly sexy reading nor does it condense into 15 second bits. I, for one, had many contradictory thoughts/opinions about the subject at the time. You might call it waffling if you want but for a huge number of people, the issues weren't nearly as black/white as you now contend. In fact, at the time, there was indeed confusion about what the IWR actually allowed.

In addition, if you want Wesley to cheap-shot Lieberman, Kerry, Edwards, and Gephardt over their votes on a rather difficult issue, you will be waiting a long time. He tried, as serious men who aren't pols do, to empathize with the difficulty of the decision without realizing how certain people would run with the comments.

You can call it waffling if you want but I think you are wrong.
