Looks as though Joe Biden is running for 08.
I saw this and was immediately curious as to what the liberals think of these Biden quotes regarding Hussein and the Iraq war.
"We Know He Continues To Attempt To Gain Access To Additional Capability, Including Nuclear Capability." (NBC's "Meet The Press," 8/4/02)
"Constitutionally, The President Has The Right To Act Preemptively." (CBS' "Face The Nation," 6/16/02)
"Does The President Have The Right To Preemptively Go Strike The Chinese, The Communist Regime? The Answer's No. And So - But With Saddam, There Is--It's Much More Tenuous Because He Has Used Weapons Of Mass Destruction Before. He Has Made Assertions About Intentions To Use These Weapons And, Therefore, It Gives More Credence To The President's Capacity To Be Able To Go Act Preemptively." (CBS' "Face The Nation," 6/16/02)
"[W]hat Makes Saddam Hussein Different Is He Invaded A Country; He Lost A War; The Terms Of Surrender Were Specific Requirements Made And Commitments Made To The United Nations That He Has Violated." (CBS' "Face The Nation," 9/22/02)
"Mr. Ambassador [Richard Butler], I Share Your View That Saddam At All Costs Will Agree To No Inspection That May Cost Him His Weapons Of Mass Destruction." (Sen. Joe Biden, Committee On Foreign Relations, U.S. Senate, Hearing, 7/31/02)
"[i]f Saddam Were Successful In Building An Intermediate-Range Missile Or A Missile That Is Much Further Than 160 Kilometers, And If He Were Able To Provide A Nuclear Warhead On That Missile -- As We All Know, It's A Heck Of A Lot Easier To Put A Chemical Or Biological Warhead, For No Other Reason For The Laymen Out There, Other Than The Pure Weight Of The Object." (Sen. Joe Biden, Committee On Foreign Relations, U.S. Senate, Hearing, 7/31/02)
