Iraq: Why are the Dems rolling over on Negroponte?
Did Bush scratch their bellies with his boot again? I mean, look at this:
"Lack of candor" is rich—could Dodd mean that Negronte was lying?
And if "lack of candor" was the problem with Negroponte then, why is it not a problem now? Especially since the administration lied its way into the war.
Why doesn't Dodd simply opposed Negroponte's nomination? Just was Iraq needs—more death squads, presumably run using mercenaries out of the RNC/CPA "Republican Palace." Yech. Same old, same old.
Sen. Chrisopher J. Dodd, D-Ct., noted differences that he had with Negroponte when the diplomat was ambassador to Honduras in the 1980s.
"Those differences stem largely from a lack of candor about what the U.S. was and wasn't doing in Central America in the conflict at that time," Dodd said. "And although I intend to support and strongly support this nomination when it comes to a vote in this committee, and later on the Senate floor, I want to make one point especially clear: That same issue - candor - in my view, is going to be critical with respect to continued support for U.S. policies in Iraq."
