Out of context

The Kerry remark "It didn't change me much at all" was the last sentence of a long answer. I have to believe that Mr. Pipes or his associates know that, yet deliberately took the comment out of context.

I would not say that Bush is a Sept. 12 man, as in 2001. I would say he is a May 1, 2003 man, speaking on the USS Lincoln under a banner, later admittedly ordered by the White House, sayihng "MIssion Accomplished.' This reflects the arrogance of this administration, and its single minded "we know the best way and we don't make mistakes" attitude which has put us in such an incredibly untenable situation...
