To Dean’s following, the moment he stood out from the pack is when he stood up against the war. Opposition to the war in Iraq seems every bit as important to Dean’s campaign as opposition to the Vietnam War was to George McGovern’s successful bid for the Democratic nomination in 1972.
Isn’t it just about time that the left was asked what its plans are for combating terrorism?
The left doesn’t want us in Iraq, where we are bringing the fight right to the terrorists’ own backyard? Okay – what’s their plan?
There’s never a word from the left about how to fight terrorism. They can’t get enough of saying Iraq wasn’t “imminently” going to attack us. (I guess if Iraq was going to help nuke us in a couple of months we were supposed to leave Hussein in peace.) They can’t get enough of complaining that Bin Laden hasn’t been caught yet. Etc. etc. Okay—what’s their plan? How would they fight terrorism? What would they do to prevent another 9-11?
Why is it the left never gets questioned on this? Is it possible that no reporter on earth can imagine asking Dean or Kerry this question?
