Kerry's GMA Interview with Diane Sawyer
According to ABC's The Note, this is one line from Kerry's interview with Diane Sawyer that aired Sept 29:
JOHN KERRY: We should not have gone to war knowing the information that we know today.
Talk about 20/20 hindsight!
Any idiot can second guess any decision based on information that becomes available after the fact. The point is, Senator, that Presidents have to act on the information they have available at the time. At the time, the CIA, France, Germany, Russia, Egypt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia were all saying, among other things, that Saddam had stockpiles of WMD.
Be careful what you wish for, Senator Kerry. If you are elected (an event which I fervently pray will not happen) I strongly suspect you'll find it much more difficult to make the hard decisions than it is to criticize someone else from the sidelines.
