214. Well, my reply's right in this thread....
but here's what I wrote:

Unfortunately, I missed MTP here as I was at Church but there is nothing he could say on there that will give me what I'm looking for.

I understand from Edwards supporters on these boards that Edwards is well aware of the reaction to his unfortunate remarks regarding Iran and that he's doing what he can to appease us. I'm not looking for spin or damage control or appeasement.

I am looking for a consistent set of remarks before that conference and the hubbub it created that show me he is profoundly and deeply opposed to war with Iran and, as I said, I need to see remarks he's made to audiences that wouldn't want to hear them and how he's not backed down when confronted with disagreement to those remarks. Otherwise, based on what I've heard from him, although I don't think he's actively looking for war with Iran, I cannot get the impression that he's profoundly and deeply opposed.

And, as I also said, even if he does have a long series of consistent remarks against attacking Iran, I still have a major problem with the very poor judgment he showed in speaking as he did to the audience at that conference. I'm not sure what would be able to help me with that.


You keep talking about the totality of his remarks....I need to see some of these remarks. For you to have this impression that he's deeply and prfoundly against war with Iran, he must have said something to that effect BEFORE the conference, no? Otherwise, how do you get that impression?

I'm looking for those remarks. Surely, considering you have Clark interviews easily at hand, you must know where to find some of these remarks of Edwards you are always referring to, no?

I may still have a problem with the god-awful judgment he showed in addressing that conference but I'd at least be able to see how profoundly and deeply he is against was with Iran, right?

Thanks again!
