Kerry flip flopped in the debate

In this first quote Kerry is basically saying he's not a flip flopper, and he has always believed and still believes Saddam was a threat.

In the second quote Kerry is speaking about the threat posed by Iran. Saying basically Iran's threat has grown while Bush was preoccupied with Iraq, where there was no threat.

And what's interesting is, it's a threat that has grown while the president has been preoccupied with Iraq, where there wasn't a threat.B]
He can't even keep his contradictory positions straight in one debate. What a joke. I hope the press realize this and call him on it. I can't be the only person in the world that caught that.
