that's a RW slur. Kerry is not an ideologue, so he won't always take the position people expect him to take - but I cannot think of any politician whose world view has been as consistent as Kerry's. If you read Albright's latest book, you would have read part of a Kerry speech from 1966, where among other things he spoke of needing to understand the cultures of other places. Albright included this because it fit. That speech hit some of the same point that he spoke of in 2006.

You might also note - that the ONLY real example they had was not a flip flop - it was typical Senate practice where there are multiple versions of bills. The fact was that when Kerry said what he did, he was desputing that he was against funding the war.

Kerry is very consistent for a politician.
