STAYING ON MESSAGE
So Dean said his truth today in an important speech out here. Sorta my truth too.
"Let me be clear: My position on the war has not changed".
"The difficulties and tragedies we have faced in Iraq show that the administration launched the war in the wrong way, at the wrong time, with inadequate planning, insufficient help, and at unbelievable cost. An administration prepared to work with others in true partnership might have been able, if it found no alternative to Saddam's ouster, to then rebuild Iraq with far less cost and risk".
And true to form, Lieberman and Kerry attacked him for it.
What I like about this guy is that he does not equivocate. He says what he believes. I do not even mind if what he believes changes; the sign of a flexible mind. We do not see much of that around in the Dems (least of all the aforementioned Lieb and Kerry) or the Repubs.
Did you know that George Bush calls him Dean-O? This is a sign that he is strongly on the Bush radar. The White House gang are figuring that he is the one they are going to have to campaign against.
The LA Times says now that 32% of the DNC is for Dean.
I am getting there.
His whole speech is at: THE DEAN FOREIGN POLICY SPEECH 121503
