Kerry Tales, Part XLV

Candidate Kerry just performed the biggest flip-flop of them all, on the biggest issue of them all--Iraq:
Staking out new ground on Iraq, Sen. John Kerry said Monday he would not have overthrown Saddam Hussein had he been in the White House. . .

"Saddam Hussein was a brutal dictator who deserves his own special place in hell," he added. "But that was not, in itself, a reason to go to war. The satisfaction we take in his downfall does not hide this fact: We have traded a dictator for a chaos that has left America less secure."
Kerry must presume voters can't remember his opposite approach less than 2 months ago: "Sen. John Kerry said Monday he would have voted to authorize the war in Iraq knowing what he does now."

I shouldn't be surprised anymore. But I thought the height of absurdity was when Navy-in-Vietnam Kerry became the medal-tossing protester, and then transformed into a Swiftboat 'hero' "reporting for duty." Now, just on Iraq alone, Kerry has: Kerry's done more head spins than Linda Blair. He's George McGovern reborn, without principles, spectacularly unnerved by today's media meltdown. None of "the three faces of John" is qualified to be President.
