Kerry and Obama: Then and Now

Hypocrisy: its all a personal power game of politics, not integrity of principles and values.

"Sept. 2, 2012YORK, Pa. (AP) — Vice President Joe Biden said Sunday that Republican rival Mitt Romney is “ready to go to war in Syria and Iran” while hurting the middle class.

Bush Lied, People Died---Capturing Saddam Was Not a Justifiable Humanitarian Endeavour, but Riding Assad Is?

Quote:

Finally, recall that Kerry confidently calls it “undeniable” that the Syria government used chemical weapons. He cites various intelligence sources. Yet, Kerry, when running for president in 2004, accused George W. Bush of a “rush to war” on “faulty intelligence.”

Bush relied on the 2002 National Intelligence Estimate. All 16 of the U.S. agencies involved in intelligence gathering and analysis reported “with the highest probability” that Iraq ruler Saddam Hussein possessed stockpiles of chemical and biological weapons of mass destruction....

Nor, when the stockpiles failed to materialize, did Bush’s critics thank him for ridding Iraq of the humanitarian disaster represented by Saddam Hussein. Now Bush did not sell the war as a humanitarian mission. Nor should he have. But reportedly in Syria, more than 100,000 people have died in the current conflict. In Saddam’s Iraq, human rights groups estimate that Saddam Hussein murdered, on the low side, as many as 300,000 people. Some put the number at over one million.
