Bush Mocks Kerry for 'Changing Positions' on Iraq

SPRINGFIELD, Ohio (Reuters) - President Bush on Monday mocked his Democratic rival John Kerry for shifting his positions on Iraq so many times he could "debate himself" in this week's face-off between the two candidates.
Bush's ridicule of the Massachusetts senator came as Kerry has been hammering him daily on Iraq, accusing him of mishandling the chaotic aftermath of the 2003 U.S. invasion and giving overly optimistic assessments of conditions there.
The first presidential campaign debate on Thursday in Coral Gables, Fla. will focus on foreign affairs and may be pivotal to the outcome of the Nov. 2 election.
At an Ohio campaign event, Bush referred to his practice sessions for the debate at his Texas ranch over the weekend.
"It's been a little tough to prepare because (Kerry) keeps changing positions on the war on the terror," he joked.
"He voted for the use of force in Iraq and then didn't vote to fund the troops," Bush said. "He complained that we're not spending enough money to help in reconstruction in Iraq and now he's saying we're spending too much. He said it was the right decision to go into Iraq and now he calls it the wrong war.
"He could probably spend 90 minutes debating himself," Bush added to hoots of laughter from his supporters.

Ha.....Ha
Both parties and idealogies can argue about all things, but if watching clips of the "Hannatization of America", listening to some of the 'jokes' by speakers during the RNC including the god awfuil Bush twins material and now reading that little blurb have taught me anything it's this: No matter what else, leave National Security to Conservatives and leave anything that can be remotely construed as 'comedy' to the Liberals.

RE: Dang that dubya's funny
conservatives can be rather stiff/old but try not to generalize too hard there epitome. I mean how funny can you really be when trying to remain 100% politically correct?
"How 'bout this weather eh?"
"ho ho ho!"

I wouldn't mock Bush at all for changing positions on Iraq.

RE: Dang that dubya's funny
I don't really understand chiwas. The reason that the flip-flop charge sticks to kerry is that it's so true. even if you found a few policy changes with bush on something, in general he says what he means and that's about it.
In fact that's one fo the dems' talking points, that he's too stubborn and not "nuanced" enough.

Maybe, but I wouldn't blame Bush if he changes of mind and turns the chaos in Iraq.
