You are correct. Predicting what would have happened in this scenario definitely contains a level of speculation. I will give you that. My intent was truly to focus on Kerry's rhetoric. He slings these grand statements around about how he would have done things differently and how Bush has screwed things up. The problem is that his own positions and statement from the past taken with what we now know to be the facts of the situation in Iraq do not remotely support his assertions. Like a peacock, he is prancing around like he is the grand solution with plenty of "I told you so's". The problem is that he didn't tell him so....He wouldn't have been able to do things differently....and he doesn't have a viable solution to this quandry we're in over there.

As usual, he is talking out of his A$$....and he's being allowed to do so unchecked by the media.
