Kerry’s Principles: Another Perspective

I’ve been harshly critical of John Kerry’s opportunistic stance as he plays to the anti-war crowd to reinvigorate his DOA 2008 campaign; nevertheless, a sizeable amount of commenters on the right say I’ve got it exactly wrong, as stated succinctly by Tom Bevan:

Kerry voted in favor of the Iraq war because he felt it was the politically expedient thing to do at the time knowing he was going to run for President. His entire history, from his post-Vietnam protests to his vote against the Gulf War in 1991, demonstrates Mr. Kerry’s principles quite clearly.

Well, the case can certainly be made…

(With apologies to Monty Python) And now, for something completely different:

According to “guerilla poet”, Kerry is nothing but a willing tool of BushCo., promoting “a national hierarchy based on wealth and prestige”.

And now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to go clean out my browser with Pine-Sol.

I almost feel like it is being overdone on JFK, hoping against hope that it will be him or Hillary. The nice thing about moonbats, is that when you tell them not to touch a plate, they stick their tongues to it anyway.
