John Kerry lied again last night with his speech, accepting the nomination. He told the country he would "never mislead is into war." He has said this same thing a number of times, claiming that President Bush did just that...tho, all evidence is to the contrary. Bipartisan reports have come out and said that the president did NOT mislead the country. John Kerry KNOWS that UN intel, Russian intel, CIA intel, British MI6 intel, etc. ALL came to the same conclusion- Saddam had WMD. Reports of WMD being moved out of Iraq have been released, and the interim PM of that nation has said this is the case.
PLUS- John Kerry, who had the SAME intel. the president had voted IN SUPPORT of going to war...which means, if President Bush misled the country, Kerry, with his vote, having the same exact intel. also misled the country. John Kerry, the admitted war criminal in Vietnam, would never admit to such misleading, but if he's going to keep claiming that Bush did so, he must take blame as well.
The fact is- no one misled ANYONE. The president's intel (russian, UN, MI6, CIA) told him the same thing it told Kerry. Kerry has been quoted numerous times in the past 3 years saying that Hussein HAD to be removed and that a safe world could not include a Hussein regime. Edwards has said the same thing on numerous occassions. Therefore- Kerry, and maybe Edwards as well, make it obvious- lying is just part of the campaign. Lying is okay with John Kerry, and trying to mislead the American people into thinking the president misled them is okay with the Kerry campaign. Lying like this is not okay with me, tho, and it's not okay with the American people.

Posted by: Upwardspiral at July 30, 2004 10:55 AMi wouldnt say they all lie. it seems that a lot of them do, and right now in 2004, it seems like a lot of this hateful rhetoric, claiming lies, etc. is coming mainly from the left. which is sad, because it puts us all in danger, we should be coming together to fight the evil that threatens us.
