Too bad the Democrats have this force field made from sheer stupidity and the scalps of babies and puppy tears that prevents the media from actually confronting him about it.

It amazes me that people like Edwards always forget that there is this thing called videotape and that things recorded and said on it can last for years, and be brought back years later so as to remind all of us what someone like Edwards said back then, and compare it to what he is saying NOW. I swear, politicians like Edwards must think we are all idiots and they are all superior intellects!

Actually pilamaye, these Dems don’t “forget”, they know full well what they’re doing… They know the MSM WILL NOT pull these videos out to bust them for their lies and flip-flopping, because the MSM is on their side. So it’s not so much “stupidity” or “forgetfulness”, as it is confidence that their media allies have got their backs. Remember, as big as HotAir is in the blogosphere, it’s still not getting the tens of millions of eyeballs that the network news shows and the nation’s papers get. I wish someone would do a poll to see what percentage of Americans are aware that the Democrats spent 13 years making the “WMDs in Iraq” case right up to the war. I wager it’s less than 20% of the public is aware.

You are missed.

…they still promoted, authorized, supported and funded the war.

Hmmmm, so, if Dems hate W because
he allegedly lied about intel
he promoted the war
he authorized the war
he supported the war
and he called on people like Edwards and Clinton and Kerry to fund the war….

…then how does a Dem excuse voting for a Kerry, an Edwards, or a Clinton?

ABB

It’s ALLLLLLL about partisan Bush hate. If it were about the war, CODE PINK would be protesting Hillary’s events and Edwards’ events.

In other news, I saw my daddy go down to work everyday…at the mill.

Will you miss him when he drops out as much as I will?

Well, yes, if he’d ever drop out of perpetual campaigning. He only won once or twice, but has been campaigning for something all his life.

That clip should be played over and over and over.
1) All democrats supported the war, and
2) Bush didn’t invent WMD. Everyone, including this staunch supporter to remove Saddam seen in the clip, believed he had WMD.

Do the dems really think we’re going to forget about all their previous statements?

Will you miss him when he drops out as much as I will?

I’ve found it tough to care since he dumped Marcotte.

The Day the Comedy Died.

Let me be clear on what the U.S. objectives are: The United States wants Iraq to rejoin the family of nations as a freedom-loving and law-abiding member. This is in our interest and that of our allies within the region.

The United States favors an Iraq that offers its people freedom at home. I categorically reject arguments that this is unattainable due to Iraq’s history or its ethnic or sectarian make-up. Iraqis deserve and desire freedom like everyone else. The United States looks forward to a democratically supported regime that would permit us to enter into a dialogue leading to the reintegration of Iraq into normal international life.

My Administration has pursued, and will continue to pursue, these objectives through active application of all relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions. The evidence is overwhelming that such changes will not happen under the current Iraq leadership.

George H.W. Bush? George W. Bush? Would you believe Bill Clinton? He signed the Iraq Liberation Act of 1998 and put Iraq’s liberation from Saddam Hussein into official U.S. policy. Thank you, Bill. It may be the only thing you did right during your 8 years in office.

Silky seems to.

Forget Edwards.

It’s ALL THE DEMOCRATS.

That’s an excellent/classic video we should all refresh ourselves with a couple of times every year (and there are dozens more quotes where those came from), but I think the difference with Edwards in particular is that when ALL the Dems flipped in late 2003 to the “Bush lied!” line, Edwards, running in the Dem primaries held fast as the ONE pro-war Dem candidate who supported Bush’s action at the UN and in Iraq. The others were busy calling Bush a liar, but not Edwards. NOW, he (and his idiot supporters) claim that he’s the far left most anti-war hero they could hitch their wagons to.

Again, I enjoy checking that video you sent every couple months and everyone should familiarize themselves with the 180 the Dems have done (cuz the media won’t do it for you), but the Edwards thing is a slightly different case, and deserves to be examined separately too.

It’s ALL THE DEMOCRATS.
