John Kerry is continuing to play both sides of the Iraq argument. Kerry recently told reporters in Arizona that he would like George Bush to answer a few questions about Iraq.

"My question to President Bush is why did he rush to war without a plan to win the peace?" Kerry asked. "Why did he rush to war on faulty intelligence and not do the hard work necessary to give America the truth?

"Why did he mislead America about how he would go to war? Why has he not brought other countries to the table in order to support American troops in the way that we deserve it and relieve a pressure from the American people?

"There are four, not hypothetical questions like the president's, but real questions that matter to Americans," Kerry said. "And I hope you'll get the answers to those questions because the American people deserve them."

Kerry has been hammering away at Bush about bad intelligence, rushing to war, no WMD, no exit strategy. But when asked if he would have changed his vote, Kerry said he is standing by his 'yes' vote on the war in Iraq. (He's also standing by his 'no' vote to deny funding for our troops.)

Kerry thinks Bush should be held accountable for his decision on the war (that Kerry authorized), but don't you dare hold Kerry up to that same standard. Adding another flip-flop, Kerry said he would either reduce or increase the number of troops in Iraq.

Kerry said his goal would be to reduce the number of American troops in Iraq within six months of taking office, but he said he would put more troops into the country "if the commanders ask for it."

Now that's leadership. NOT.
