On Flip-Flopping...

Senator Kerry has been accused time and again of "flip-flopping" on a number of campaign issues. In fact, "flip-flopping" is probably the Republican party's favorite catch-phrase (other than "we've turned the corner"). Anyway...what is flip-flopping, really, other than a derogatory term for "changing your mind"? Is changing your mind such a bad thing? If the powers that were would have changed their minds a little sooner about Viet Nam maybe some of the 58,000 Americans that died would be alive today, making valid contributions to society. If the powers that be would change THEIR minds, maybe we'd get the hell out of Iraq and stop getting Americans killed today. Flip-flopping...it's only a negative to bull-headed Texans and VPs getting dual incomes...from the federal government AND Halliburton.
