Now, according to John Kerry, the Democrats are for it, even though they said they were against it.
Kerry accused President Bush of mischaracterizing "what this real debate is about -- and what it is not about."
The debate is not about "an artificial date for withdrawal," Kerry said. For Democrats, it's about "an estimated timetable for success," he said.
No one has ever suggested that we should "run in the face of car bombers or assassins," Kerry said, referring to a line in Bush's speech. "No one is talking about running in face of a challenge; we're talking about how to win, how to succeed, how to best achieve our goals. That's the choice here," Kerry said.
Perhaps someone should introduce him to Nancy Pelosi, who, unlike Kerry, actually holds a leadership position within the Democratic Party.
"I will be supporting the Murtha resolution," Pelosi said of his plan calling for the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq at the earliest practicable date, which he said should be about six months.
In fact, maybe should introduce John Kerry to John Kerry.
Remember this one from last year's presidential campaign?
"It's the wrong war in the wrong place at the wrong time."
