More on John Kerry's trouble w/ the truth.

FYI, the corrected story of Kerry's foreign/more leaders misquote/quote is now out, complete with a statement from a Kerry spokesperson:

But the campaign said Monday that the Globe's clarification demonstrates some ambiguity about what Kerry meant. His reference to "more leaders," said Kerry's spokeswoman Stephanie Cutter, "could mean anybody." The media's repeated references to "foreign leaders" allowed critics to suggest he was talking about heads of state. "He was misquoted," said Cutter. "Had he not been misquoted, this wouldn't be a story."

If he was misquoted, it was only that one time. Since the 'misquote', he's repeated his 'foreign leaders' statement here and here. But, OK, I'm willing to play along here and believe that in addition to being misquoted the first time, he's simply misspoken the last two times. But his spokesperson's statement, that he 'could mean anybody' is just another Kerry dodge. Answer the damn question.

If it was wrong, and you mispoke, then what the hell did you mean? Who are you talking about. Having your spokesperson talking about ambiguity isn't helping here. When you speak, people need to know what the hell you are trying to say.

So at this point, Kerry won't answer questions about the Iraq war, won't name these foreign leaders, and won't even clarify if he has misspoken - preferring to leave his comments as ambigous (sp) as possible. How is it Kerry expects to win undecided voters when nobody can figure out what the hell his positions are?
