John Kerry

Started by Linkalicious25 pages

I'm really looking forward to the open debates tonight on television.

I've been a firm Bush supporter all along, primarily because I don't like Kerry's views, but I'm a fair person. If Kerry can impress me with his debating skills...then he may very well sway my opinion.

please dont vote third party.
thats what bush wants you to do.
nader f*** the last election royally.
if he had not run, florida would not have
been an issue. why do you think gov. jeb
pushed so hard to have ralph nader included
on the florida ballot? fair play? i think not...

a vote for nader=a vote for bush

it all matters which state you are in

if you are in texas, voting nader won't really hurt; if you are in Florida, that's a different story

i live in jesey

jesey WILL vote kerry

but im voting anyway, cant be too careful.

i dont love kerry, but i dont think he's a psycotic looney with
a messiah complex like his opponent. kerry just looks like another
plititian to me. i dont like him....but he does not scare the shit out of me,
so he gets my vote....sad huh?

Strap on your seatbelts gentlemen.....another 4 years with Bush is on the way. 😄

i share most of the same views as Mr Kerry

i am determined to help send that "all hat and no cattle" cowboy jerkjob crying back to texas. i would have voted for sharpton if it were necessary to do so.

VOTE KERRY BECAUSE.......😕 well.......he's not bush 💃

I'm definately for Kerry, I just don't share any views with Bush. I'm Pro-Choice and all that liberal stuff; basically teh opposite of the Christian right that Bush has come to enbody

so as two Kerry supporters...can I ask.

What makes you two think Kerry will do any better of a job than Bush did as president?

see, i dont trust polititians, and i dont trust kerry.
i think you have to be crooked and greedy to make it
that far in a presidential election, with our system of
campaigning. garbage in, garbage out.

i dont fall under the dillusion that i am voting for a saint.
but dubya is a chicken hawk, he proclaims himself the voice
of god, he speaks without thinking, and he is a war profiteer.

any ONE of those qualities makes a pres. dangerous.
i dont think kerry is a great buy, but i would sleep much
better at night with him at the wheel.

so, i think that kerry will not spark a jihad in the middle east,
he will not start up a draft and create another vietnam death trap,
he will not alienate all who oppose his point of view and lable them
as 'unamerican'...there are many things kerry wont do.

thats what makes this unique for me. i am voting not on what the candidate
plans on doing, but what he plans on NOT doing....

I think any man that can think would do a better job then Bush. I was voting for Kerry before the debate. After seeing them and how Bush answered his questions I can't imagine how anyone would vote for him. Kerry was well versed and handled himself very professionally. He seemed knowledgeable and ready to lead our nation. Against all those nasty 'folks' that Bush was talking about.

Kerry has a plan; Bush can't even spell it. 🙂

I love how people make fun of bushes speaking habbits.. so he cant pronounce words and he stutters.. does that effect the way he runs this country? no.. so stop being an ignorant moron Zanthor.

Actually, the inability to construct quality and reasonable sentances does indeed effect the way he can run this country. It makes him look stupid and difficult to take seriously.

he does not have a speach impediment,
in which case it would be wrong to laugh.
no kidrock, those pauses and studders are
the sounds of a desperate man reaching for
bullshit. he avoided the important questions
and gave the same tired rhetoric from a year
ago.

and if you are not a believer now, thats fine.
check back here next thursday night, after
dubya recieved the KO punch in the homeland
debate.

bush is going down.
bullshit will only float for so long.

PVS, referring to you saying that a vote for Nader was a vote for Bush, sorry but there are those out there that like neither Bush nor Kerry...and it is fine for them to vote for whomever they want...they wouldn't be voting for Nader if it just helped Bush...so its not helping either candidate in my opinion.

ummm nader is a liberal,
he leans to the far left.
therefore the majority of the votes he takes away
are from the democrats. there are RARE cases to the contrary.

i bet you weren't so open minded when perot ran
and took votes from bush sr.

Kerry's flip flops:

Flip: In December 2002, Kerry said, "We should encourage the measurement of the real value of companies by ending the double taxation of dividends."

Flop: Throughout 2003, Kerry opposed President Bush's tax plan, which, according to Bush, would eliminate the "double taxation on dividends." In May, Kerry voted against the final plan, which cut but didn't eliminate the tax on corporate dividends.

Context: Kerry believed the tax cut would do little to stimulate the economy, considering the deficit and the war in Iraq. In regard to the dividend tax and his position switch, he said, "I don't support [eliminating the dividend tax] now under any circumstances at this moment. I support it in the context of tax reform overall, in which case not doubly taxing income I would think is an important principle."

Flip: In October 2002, Kerry voted for the Iraq war resolution sought by Bush. Kerry voted against an alternative that would have authorized force only if the U.N. Security Council sanctioned it. The resolution Kerry supported stated, "The President is authorized to use the Armed Forces of the United States as he determines to be necessary and appropriate in order to … defend the national security of the United States against the continuing threat posed by Iraq."

Flop: Soon after voting for the resolution, Kerry expressed dismay over the march to war. He said he wouldn't "support the president to proceed unilaterally" and consistently criticized administration policy leading up to the invasion.

Kerry often said Iraq was a looming threat that had to be dealt with. He believed an invasion, done properly, would be sound policy. He insisted that Bush should "exhaust all possible remedies" to avert unilateral war, but he also said, "American security must never be ceded to any institution or to another institution's decision." That was why he voted against the alternative Iraq resolution. In the days leading up to the war, Kerry was unclear as to whether he would support an invasion without a U.N. Security Council resolution.
