Activists Jeer Clinton Over Iraq Stance

WASHINGTON - Anti-war activists at a liberal gathering booed Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton on Tuesday for opposing a set date for pulling U.S. troops from Iraq. Facing down the jeers, Clinton said Democrats need to have "a difficult conversation" about the war.

Another potential presidential candidate, Sen. John Kerry, spoke to the group later in the day and offered an emphatically anti-war appeal.

"Sometimes this is a difficult conversation, in part because this administration has made our world more dangerous than it should be," Clinton, D-N.Y.

Kerry, who was widely criticized as the party's standard-bearer in 2004 for being too cautious in his criticism of the war, said Tuesday that politicians "cannot have it both ways."

Kerry: "cannot have it both ways?" Mr. FlipFlop has had it both ways his entire career.
