Last Question

Three instances of your mistakes and how you corrected it:

Emperor says … he has made decisions.

Beat.

Says he’ll take responsibility for tactical problems in war.

On big decisions in Iraq and Afghanistan weren’t mistakes. Trying to trap me into saying it was wrong. Again gets hyper defensive on Iraq. Goes way off on Saddam. And tax cuts.

Made mistakes in appointing people, won’t name names on TV. (?!)

Kerry’s response: Bush made huge mistakes. Look into your hearts: Was war last resort? No plan to win peace. Incompetent in delivery of services. Beyond pitiful and embarrassing. Saddam’s intent is an excuse.

Bush gets defensive on equipment and Iraq. He gets clipped.

Kerry says which is worse, how I talked about $87 billion or invading Iraq? Invokes Halliburton.
