Meet the Press, 9.19.04
MR. THUNE: Didn't Senator Kerry vote against $87 million for aid to the troops?No, Mr. Daschle, John Kerry did not vote against aiding our troops. John Kerry voted FOR aiding our troops. That's the simple answer. Did the legislation he voted for get passed? No it didn't. That's because a majority of Republicans VOTED AGAINST aiding our troops, and voted AGAINST the package John Kerry voted for. Jesus people, why has NO ONE pulled up that other bill and argued that the GOP Senators voted AGAINST aiding our troops? In fact, I'm doing it right now. See the next post above (shortly).
SEN. DASCHLE: He did. I disagree with that.
