] Washington -- President Bush portrays his position on
] Iraq as steady and unwavering as he represents Sen. John
] Kerry's stance as ambiguous and vacillating.
]
] "Mixed signals are the wrong signals,'' Bush said last
] week during a campaign stop in Bangor, Maine. "I will
] continue to lead with clarity, and when I say something,
] I'll mean what I say.''
]
] Yet, heading into the first presidential debate Thursday,
] which will focus on foreign affairs, there is much in the
] public record to suggest that Bush's words on Iraq have
] evolved -- or, in the parlance his campaign often uses to
] describe Kerry, flip-flopped.
]
] An examination of more than 150 of Bush's speeches, radio
] addresses and responses to reporters' questions reveal a
] steady progression of language, mostly to reflect
] changing circumstances such as the failure to discover
] weapons of mass destruction, the lack of ties between
] Iraq and the al Qaeda terrorist network and the growing
] violence of Iraqi insurgents.

] Compared with Kerry, George W. Bush is a coward. This is
] not a reference to their respective activities during
] Vietnam. It refers to the current election campaign. Bush
] happily benefits from the slime his supporters are
] spreading but refuses to take responsibility for it or to
] call point-blank for it to stop. He got away with this
] when the prime mover was the shadowy Swift boats group.
] Will he get away with it when the accusers are his own
] vice president, high officials of his own administration
] (Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage) and members
] of Congress from his own party (House Speaker J. Dennis
] Hastert or Sen. Orrin Hatch)? The answer is yes: Based on
] recent experience, he probably will get away with it.
