Diskussion:Annäherungen (T)
Der Empfang im Projektraum ist gut... :-)
Allerdings sind die Beiträge und Fragen der KollegInnen nicht bzw. schwer hörbar. Könnten Sie bitte die Frage, auf die Sie eingehen, wiederholen?
Danke, die Kollegen des Projektraumes
Nur eine Anregung zum Thema: ist es möglich, ein zweites, nämlich Raum-Mikro aufzustellen?
Hier der relevante Text der Boxer-Rice-Debatte (Transkript abc7news):
Boxer attacked Rice over statements she and Bush made about Hussein's nuclear weapons capability. Boxer displayed an enlarged quote from Rice: "He's trying to acquire nuclear weapons. Nobody ever said that it was going to be in the next year ..."
Boxer then cited an earlier quote from Bush saying that if Hussein acquired uranium he could have a nuclear weapon within a year, and a similar quote from Rice.
"It's hard to even ask you a question about this because you are on the record basically taking two sides of an issue," Boxer said.
"Senator, that was just a question of pointing out to people that there was an uncertainty, that no one was saying that he would have to have a weapon within a year for it to be worth it to go to war," Rice replied.
"Well, if you can't admit to this mistake, I hope that you'll rethink it," Boxer said.
"Senator we can have this discussion in any way that you would like, but I really hope that you will refrain from impugning my integrity," Rice interjected.
"I'm not, I'm just quoting what you said," Boxer shot back. "You contradicted the president and you contradicted yourself."
"Senator, I'm happy to continue the discussion but I really hope that you will not imply that I take the truth lightly," Rice said, concluding the exchange.
