ssf,

Kerry said in his speech that Iraq was a mistake. So the 140k troops there are to think what. For the past 6 months he has been saying we need more troops on the ground in Iraq and has proposed 40k which has nothing to do with the 40k he mentioned last night. It helps to tie all his proposals and thoughts together to form a clear picture of what he is saying. taking one speech at a time you would never pick up his cosistant inconsistancy.
