Description | Kerry Turns Tables, Hits Bush for 'Flips and Flops'
Reuters
Democratic challenger John Kerry, branded a waffler by his Republican opponents, turned the tables on Tuesday, accusing President Bush of "flips and flops" on the economy and national security. The presumptive Democratic presidential nominee charged Bush and his Republican allies with misleading the country on the Iraq war, taxes and jobs. The four-term Massachusetts senator also said they had been dishonest about his record. "You want to talk about flips and flops?" he asked hundreds of supporters at a rally in Cincinnati. "This president said one day Condoleezza Rice is not going to testify and the next day she is going to testify." Kerry also said Bush had flip-flopped on taxes and education, as well as his 2000 election promise to maintain fiscal discipline in Washington. The U.S. budget deficit has now reached a record $500 billion. |
