Default OT--Another Kerry flip-flop

Carl Rove doesn't need to "out" Kerry's hypocrisy. Kerry words vs. his
voting history are doing that for him.

This is the line Carl Rove wants to get out, and you are doing your part
to help spread it. Flip/flop

Like Bush isn't doing exactly the opposite of what he campaigned to do,
but that's different, right?

Are there two Kerry's running around living lives in parallel universes?

From Sunday's Miami Herald:

''I'm pretty tough on Castro, because I think he's running one of the

last
vestiges of a Stalinist secret police government in the world,'' Kerry

told
WPLG-ABC 10 reporter Michael Putney in an interview to be aired at 11:30
this morning.

Then, reaching back eight years to one of the more significant efforts

to
toughen sanctions on the communist island, Kerry volunteered: ``And I

voted
for the Helms-Burton legislation to be tough on companies that deal with
him.''

It seemed the correct answer in a year in which Democratic strategists

think
they can make a play for at least a portion of the important

Cuban-American
vote -- as they did in 1996 when more than three in 10 backed President
Clinton's reelection after he signed the sanctions measure written by

Sen.
Jesse Helms and Rep. Dan Burton.

There is only one problem: Kerry voted against it.

Asked Friday to explain the discrepancy, Kerry aides said the senator

cast
one of the 22 nays that day in 1996 because he disagreed with some of

the
final technical aspects. But, said spokesman David Wade, Kerry supported

the
legislation in its purer form -- and voted for it months earlier.

------------------------------------------------------

How stupid does one have to be to publicly lie about something that is

one
of the easiest things to verify...namely, how one voted on a particular
issue in the Senate?

Less than 1/4 of the Senate voted against the legislation...and Kerry

was in
that minority. Yet he's stupid enough to claim he voted for it!?!?
