The One Debate Question We'd Like to Ask John Kerry
"Senator Kerry, you've accused the President of lying to or, at the very least, misleading the American public and world leaders in an effort to gain their support for the invasion of Iraq. This is a very a serious accusation and you are a lawyer. When lawyers make such an accusation they are required to prove a motive. What, sir, was the President's motivation for doing such a thing?"
To gain re-election? The President has a pretty direct example in his family that a perceived successful war in Iraq does not ensure re-election.
To prop up his father's reputation? Well, lets see. He went about things pretty differently than his father did and the very fact that he felt the need to take Hussein out is a tacit acceptance of at least some failure on his father's fault... or at least the process his father followed. Hard to see how that reinforces his father. Continued enforcement of the terms of the cease fire would seem to be a better approach.
Oil? That doesn't seem to be happening either. Even so, wouldn't it have been simpler to invade Venezuela?
I would dearly love to see Senator Kerry answer this question. Not only because a sensible answer is impossible, but because the very process of answering it would inevitably group him with the Michael Moore's and Mary Mapes' of this world.
Oh and if I could ask one more question it would be: "Senator, why did you remove links to Joe Wilson's website from your own?"
I'd dearly love to hear the answer to that one. Could the answer be because the Senate Intelligence Report showed that the Iraqis really were seeking enriched uranium?
