Kerry flip-flop on Cuba

Interesting fact brought to light over on the DGCI website. From a press interview with The Miami Herald: bq. John Kerry had just pumped up a huge crowd in downtown West Palm Beach, promising to make the state a battleground for his quest to oust President Bush, when a local television journalist posed the question that any candidate with Florida ambitions should expect: bq. What will you do about Cuba? An excerpt of Kerry's reply is this: bq. Kerry volunteered: "And I voted for the Helms-Burton legislation to be tough on companies that deal with him.'' Only problem is this: bq. There is only one problem: Kerry voted against it. Kerry should have known this sort of question would be asked in Miami and he should have remembered critical facts. To be mistaken about something is one thing but to outright lie is another. Presidential material for sure... Posted by DaveH at March 14, 2004 6:25 PM
