"Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ... He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation ... And now he is miscalculating America's response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction ... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real..." -- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Jan. 23. 2003

 Obama challenges Hillary to release tax returns & other data
By: Lynn SweetSun Times - The Obama campaign Sunday called Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton a "veteran of non-disclosure" and, opening a new front, challenged her to release information about her income taxes, Bill Clinton's foundation and library donors, earmark requests and first lady records. The Clinton team said raising questions about her integrity is a "personal attack."While Clinton and Sen. Barack Obama were cordial when they met on the Senate floor Thursday -- Clinton said they talked about keeping their hotly contested primary fight on the issues -- the top strategists and spokesmen for their respective campaigns in conference calls Sunday were anxious to deal with more contentious matters of ethics and transparency.

By: Lynn SweetSun Times - The Obama campaign Sunday called Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton a "veteran of non-disclosure" and, opening a new front, challenged her to release information about her income taxes, Bill Clinton's foundation and library donors, earmark requests and first lady records. The Clinton team said raising questions about her integrity is a "personal attack."While Clinton and Sen. Barack Obama were cordial when they met on the Senate floor Thursday -- Clinton said they talked about keeping their hotly contested primary fight on the issues -- the top strategists and spokesmen for their respective campaigns in conference calls Sunday were anxious to deal with more contentious matters of ethics and transparency.As I wrote in my Sunday column, Obama's team is finally free to launch an ethics offensive against Clinton because after declining for more than a year, he granted extensive interviews with the Chicago Sun-Times and Chicago Tribune on Friday to discuss his relationship with fund-raiser Tony Rezko, who is on trial in Chicago on federal corruption charges.The Obama team is trying to dilute Clinton's claim that because she and former President Bill Clinton have been investigated through the years -- from Whitewater to impeachment to campaign finance scandals -- she is "fully vetted." David Axelrod, Obama's top strategist, said, "Sen. Clinton and her campaign says she is fully vetted, but the truth is that she is a veteran of non-disclosure. In this campaign, we have set a standard. Sen. Obama has released his tax returns, he has released his earmark requests, and he has been forthcoming on these and other issues."Clinton chief spokesman Howard Wolfson said in reply, "They are running a campaign that is designed to tear down Sen. Clinton's character using Republican talking points." He added that "when you accuse somebody of being disingenuous and question their integrity and their honesty, as they are doing, that constitutes a personal attack."
