Questions for Howard Dean
Rich Lowry:
...
"-- The U.N. Security Council in November 2002 unanimously passed Resolution 1441, giving Saddam Hussein 'a final opportunity to comply.' How do you interpret the phrase 'final opportunity'?
...
"-- You say the United States shouldn't have fought the Iraq War because Saddam did not present 'an imminent threat' to the United States. Yet you supported wars in the 1990s in Bosnia and Kosovo. How exactly did Slobodan Milosevic pose an imminent threat to the United States?
...
"-- You quit the Episcopal Church because you thought its position on a Burlington, Vt., bike path was 'not very Godlike.' What is God's position on bike paths? Scriptural references would be helpful.
...
"-- You say that Republicans want to end public education. Education spending under Bush has increased 65 percent. How is that consistent with the alleged goal of ending public education?
"-- Did you have any favorite ski spots during the Vietnam War?
"-- In the North Korean crisis, the Bush administration is engaging in intense multilateral diplomacy to make North Korea's neighbors part of any settlement. You advocate that the United States instead cut out other countries to engage in direct talks with Pyongyang. What explains your burst of unilateralism?
...
"-- You say that Bush doesn't understand the needs of middle-class families. Yet your proposed full repeal of the Bush tax cut could, as some of your opponents point out, result in a $2,000 tax increase for a middle-class family of four. What do you understand about middle-class families' hunger for higher taxes that the rest of us don't?"
