What Kerry Said

John Kerry may botch a joke from time to time, but this phrasing of the issue is the best I've seen to date: "we support the troops by getting the policy right." Damn straight.

Whatever else one might say about the Supplemental that Congress is sending to Bush, it doesn't get the policy right. It's likely that it's not possible to get the policy right in Iraq with Bush as President, but I wish the Democrats had tried a little harder. I don't think the leadership really understands how unpopular Bush is and how much America hates this war.
