Drudge’s juicy internal ABC e-mail from weekend Good Morning America boss John Green needs to be put in context. The time stamp is the night of September 30, 2004, which was the first Bush-Kerry presidential debate. Green hated Bush’s “mixed messages” line against his man Kerry. I’d bet it was this line.

My concerns about the senator is that, in the course of this campaign, I’ve been listening very carefully to what he says, and he changes positions on the war in Iraq. He changes positions on something as fundamental as what you believe in your core, in your heart of hearts, is right in Iraq. You cannot lead if you send mixed messages. Mixed messages send the wrong signals to our troops. Mixed messages send the wrong signals to our allies. Mixed messages send the wrong signals to the Iraqi citizens.
