It’s amazing that Kerry doesn’t take the occasion to say that it’s a good thing that America has overthrown tyrannical regimes in Afghanistan and Iraq. He wouldn’t have had to credit President Bush. He could just note that America’s military has actually accomplished something. But only Joe Lieberman has done that here. What would Kerry have lost by doing this? (I don’t think the delegates would have booed.) The Republicans would have to be pretty slow on the draw not to make an issue of this.
