Kerry - live on C-Span2 NOW (4:17 edt) about Iraq
Edited on Thu Apr-06-06 03:26 PM by welshTerrier2
he's responding to the personal attacks Allard made and talking about his plan for Iraq

"anyone who believes it's working over there is living in a fantasyland ..."

"everything we've been told about Iraq has turned out to be false"

"it is now a civil war and our troops can't resolve a civil war"

"companies overbilling us by billions of dollars - Halliburton"

"the absence of legitimate diplomacy is absolutely astounding to me"

3. Allard attacked Kerry's withdrawal plan on the senate floor?
Methinks BushInc must be taking it more seriously than the media is letting on.

7. Have you signed the resolution to withdraw yet?
I posted this in GD but it seems to be sinking like a stone.

9. Wow! That was one really angry Senator
When he finished it was absolute silence. The litany of Bush/Iraq sins was really amazing - I just wish I would have left the tape in from before and would have thought to tape it.

He really looked very emotional when he spoke of the people who died in Vietnam when the government knew the plan wasn't right.

13. Cleland
a Capt. that served in Iraq in 2003. He has those responses on his site. http://www.johnkerry.com/

I agree this is the time to take a stand, what are they waiting for.

14. Great to see liberals Kerry and Feingold supporting one another on Iraq
and censure. Two great leaders for the Democratic party! An awesome interview with Wolfie, whose questions Kerry handled beautifully.
