4. Huh? A U.S. Senator only just found out?
What? By October 13, 2003, when Edwards had so much faith in Bush, surely he and his staff had already read everything Kucinich -- ranking Dem on a key subcommittee overseeing intelligence and homeland security -- had to say about Bush's lies. Why did Edwards believe Kay but not Kucinich? Because Kay works for Bush, but Kucinich is just a left-wing nut? Kucinich is a leading member of Edwards' own party for goodness sakes, and was already running against Edwards for President!

There is NO excuse for Edwards flip-flopping DURING this campaign, especially when he's running against Kucinich, who has been leading the charge against Bush's lies from the beginning.

Where was Edwards when Kucinich was sticking his neck out to fight Bush two years ago? Edwards knew darn well where Kucinich and the entire progressive wing of the Democratic party stood, and he knew Kucinich had access to all the intelligence because of Kucinich's committee position. He knew where to find the evidence that Bush had lied -- pick up the phone and call Kucinich. Why didn't he do it? Because he wanted to go to war, that's why. Because he did not want Kucinich to succeed in getting the truth out BEFORE IT WAS TOO LATE>

Now it's too late, so he can just admit he's wrong. For goodness sake, even Bush has admitted he's wrong NOW.

Are you going to excuse Bush for being "wrong" (refusing to see, know, acknowledge the truth) too?
