In this context, "global test" means a universal test where "your people understand fully... and you can prove to the world...."
understood. i do agree with this, i was just looking for clarification on the lie.
I'm a Kerry supporter and there are some things that I criticize him for. For example, when Kerry was asked to give an outline of his plan and a time line, Kerry tried to dodge the question by refering to what Bush is doing rather than what he (Kerry) plans to do. Furthermore, he failed to give any kind of timeline as was asked.
but in fairness, i remember screaming at bush on the television at least once "ANSWER THE F'ING QUESTION!" one of his dodges in particular was spectacular: he was asked about afghanistan, and responded by thanking lehrer, the press, etc, and then talking about iraq.
