John Kerry for President!!!!!

“What does this have to do with Kerry? Are you trying to spin something here, lapiss?”

“Nope and kindly remove your hook from my mouth, loser.”

“"I don't know if you call it lying, but Kerry voted for the war and then spoke out against it."

This is but one single instance too. I don't think it's the best one to focus on because the bulk of his other voting record (which you posted and got shouted down for) is the really important stuff because it shows how Kerry will be as a pres. And it's scarey as hell.”

“Let us not forget what Bush was like as a politician as those fears came true.

Kerry alone is not the best man for this job. I am hoping that he can pick a person (PLEASE NOT EDWARDS!!) that can make up for his deficits.

It is telling how Kerry is doing well in the polls (I know, I don't get into them, but people watch) against Bush, with no running mate. We've all had many conversations, here and in person with some of ya, we all know that there is a lot of dissatifaction with Bush's performance. 11/04 will be interesting.

Prediction:

Bush will lose by 3 to 1 because of an Al-Queda stirke right around the election. That is how they will defeat Bush. Look at what just happened in Spain, That will happen here.”

“I can't read through all this...but here's my thoughts...for those voting for Kerry for the only reason that he's not bush...beware...I haven't met anyone yet who likes Kerry for his issues (polls suggest this 70%).

ALSO, remember Kerry is the guy who threw away "his" war metals and encouraged other vets to do the same in a protest (yet they wen't actually his...as his are on display in his office today)

And if elected he would be the second richest president in history (next to Washington)

Also, if he's really concerned about keeping jobs here...why does his wife continue to move jobs over seas (something like only 7/37 are still in the US -not exact numbers-sorry)

I can go on...but just a heads up to some of you”

“That could backfire, Q....

Don't underestimate the "rally around the vacuum-head just because he's the president" factor. We saw plenty of that just after 9-11.”

“Bush is a #&%!$ing disaster. Anyone else WOULD be an improvement.

Probably even Sharpton, LMAO”

“Understandable, Tilt, but take a look at it this way:

He's wasted his time on Saddam and claims the world is a safer place. We get hit again and it'sthe straw that broke the camels back.

I think that's the line. The Dems would capitalize as saying Bush has done nothing to make America safer.....terrorist were still allowed to get into our country, on top of everything else.

It's either that, or Al-Queda kills him, which is very possible, thus the "Freedom of Speach Zones". The SS does want to give anyone a head shot, if ya know what I mean.”

“"The SS does want to give ....."

should read:

"The SS DOESN'T want to give....."



Carry on......”

This has been pretty well covered. You obviously have you opinions, and don't want to let the facts get in the way, so feel free to carry on.

I personally wouldn't have voted the way Kerry did. Between my choices in this presidential election, though, he came closest to my position.”

“What facts do I have wrong? Kerry voted for war and then immediately began speaking out against it.”

Socialists Declare Victory in Spanish Elections


Sunday, March 14, 2004

MADRID, Spain — Voters ousted Spain's ruling party in elections Sunday, with many saying they were shaken by bombings in Madrid and furious with the government for backing the Iraq war and making their country a target for Al Qaeda (search).

The Socialist Party declared victory with 79 percent of the votes counted, as results showed it winning 164 seats in the 350-member parliament and the ruling Popular Party taking 147. The latter had 183 seats in the outgoing legislature.

"According to the available data, the Socialist Party has won the general election. It is a clear victory," said Jose Blanco, the party's campaign manager.

Turnout was high at 76 percent. Many voters said Thursday's bombings, which killed 200 people and wounded 1,500, was a decisive factor, along with the government's much-criticized handling of the initial investigation.

"The Popular Party has made me lose faith in politics," said Juan Rigola, 23, a biologist in Barcelona. "It deserves to lose and to see the Spanish people turn against them."

The electorate of 34.5 million included about 1.9 million mostly young voters added to the rolls since the 2000 general election.

Until the bombing, the conservative Popular Party (search) was projected by most polls to beat the Socialists, although perhaps without retaining their majority in the 350-seat Congress of Deputies (search).

But the disaster, which the government initially blamed on the Basque separatist group ETA (search), threw the election wide open. The attack was followed by emotional rallies across the country.

Critics accused the government, which had trumpeted its crackdown on ETA, of manipulating the investigation for political gain. That struck a chord with voters.

"I didn't intend to vote, but changed my mind," said Javi Martin, 30, who works for a TV station in Madrid. "And not because of the attacks, but because of the responsibility of the Popular Party. They gave out information drop by drop. It would have benefited them if it were ETA."

Some voters were angry at outgoing Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar (search), accusing him of making Spain a target for Islamic extremists because of his support for the Iraq war, despite the opposition of most Spaniards. Aznar sent 1,300 Spanish troops to Iraq after the conflict and 11 have died.

"I wasn't planning to vote, but I am here today because the Popular Party is responsible for murders here and in Iraq," said Ernesto Sanchez-Gey, 48, who voted in Barcelona.

Other voters, however, expressed support for the ruling party precisely because it endorsed the Iraq war, and for its crackdown on ETA.

Mari Carmen Pinadero Martinez, 58, a housewife, said she "voted to help the government end terrorism" as she cast her ballot near the downtown Atocha railway station where trains were bombed.

In El Pozo (search), northeast of Madrid, site of one of the four blasts, a ruined train car was in clear view of the polling station as were flowers for the victims, signs stating "Paz" (Peace) and dozens of lit candles.

Some of the voters, teary-eyed, held onto relatives and friends for support.

The Interior Ministry has announced five arrests in the bombing, including three Moroccans, and discovery of a videotape in which a man speaking Arabic says Usama bin Laden's Al Qaeda network claimed responsibility for the attack.

In Morocco, authorities said one of the five detainees had been under surveillance for months and was suspected of ties to Islamic radicalism.

On Sunday, a Basque-language daily published a statement by ETA in which the group for a second time denied involvement in the attacks.

A handful of young protesters screamed "murderer" at Mariano Rajoy, the ruling party candidate for prime minister, as he cast his vote in an elementary school outside Madrid. "We did not want to go to war!" they shouted.

Rajoy declined to comment on the arrests or videotape. "These elections come at a time of great pain," he said.

As Aznar voted in Madrid, some bystanders cheered him while others shouted, "Manipulator!"

"All Signs Point to Al Qaeda," the country's largest circulation newspaper, El Pais, said in a front-page banner headline Sunday.

The videotape was recovered from a trash basket near a Madrid mosque after an Arabic-speaking man called a Madrid TV station to say it was there, Interior Minister Angel Acebes said.

The political campaign was bitter between Rajoy, 48, a veteran Cabinet minister under Aznar, and Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, 43, a lawyer, member of parliament and the Socialist party's general-secretary.

Before the attacks, polls gave Rajoy's party a 3-5 percentage point lead over the Socialists in the race for the 350-seat Congress of Deputies.

Aznar did not seek re-election, complying with a pledge to not seek a third four-year term.”

“But I want to say a word about a man who is a friend of mine, somebody who I believe has great strength and great courage, my friend Senator John Kerry. He has fought for and will continue to fight for the things that all of us believe in: more jobs, better health care, cleaner air, cleaner water, a safer world. The truth is these are the causes of our party, the Democratic Party. They are the causes of America. And they are the reasons we will prevail, come November, and take back this country.

“JOHN KERRY CAUGHT IN A NEW LIE ... MAKE THAT LIES

This is going to be a common theme throughout this election, and the Bush campaign needs to seize on this right away. Not only does the Democratic nominee for president switch positions as he sees fit, but Senator John Kerry just tells outright lies. That's right; when the truth doesn't suit his purpose, he just concocts something that does. Do you think the mainstream media would let a Republican get away with something like that? Of course not.

Today's tall tale centers on none other than the brutal communist dictator 90 miles off the Florida coast, Cuban President Fidel Castro. While pandering for Hispanic votes in Sunday's Miami Herald, Kerry said "I'm pretty tough on Castro, because I think he's running one of the last vestiges of a Stalinist secret police government in the world. And I voted for the Helms-Burton legislation to be tough on companies that deal with him" Sounds like pretty much the same thing as President Bush, right? Well, the newspaper did a little digging, and once again, Kerry's past comes back to haunt him.

It turns out that Senator John Kerry actually voted against the Helms-Burton legislation. Never let the facts get in the way of good campaigning, right? Let's just see if the media calls Kerry out on this one at his next press conference.

I doubt it.

Oh ... and while we're at it. Yet another Kerry lie. This one is about that continuing brouhaha over Kerry's statement that he met with foreign leaders who told him that they wanted him to beat Bush. Kerry's statement was recorded --- yes, recorded --- by a Boston Globe reporter handling pool coverage. Well ... this is turning into a problem for Kerry for two reasons. First, nobody seems to remember when he has met with any foreign leaders. Second, he refuses to share with us the names of these foreign leaders he's been talking too.

Now it seems that sKerry wants to change his story. At a recent meeting with campaign donors sKerry was challenged about his statement that he had met with these mysterious foreign leaders. Kerry's respose? "I never said that. What I said was that I have heard from people who are leaders elsewhere in the world who don't appreciate the Bush administration approach and would love to see a change in the leadership of the United States."

Seems like Mr. sKerry has a problem! Here's this tape recording where sKerry clearly says "met," and there's sKerry saying "I never said that!"

AND THIS IS WHY JOHN SKERRY VOTED AGAINST SUPPORT FOR OUR TROOPS?

sKerry seems to be having a rough time 'splaining his no-vote on continuing funding for our troops in Iraq. He's now telling people that he would have voted for the $87 billion funding measure, but decided not to because Bush wouldn't raise taxes on the rich to pay for it. Wow! A presidential candidate saying "If you're not going to raise taxes on rich people, then I'm not going to vote to give our troops what then need in Iraq. So there."

The question is: Which is more important to John Kerry. Supporting our troops in Iraq, or raising taxes on the rich? We now know the answer.

THE FRENCH LOVE KERRY

This should come as no surprise, since John Kerry and the French share the same anti-American, pro-terrorist agenda. It is a bit of a surprise just how popular he is over there.

Apparently, Kerry's face is all over magazines and newspapers on the newsstands of Paris. This quote from a Frenchman says it best: "He is the closest thing that you will have to a French politician, with a certain diplomacy, a certain elegance." He must mean a certain elegance with supporting terrorist regimes sympathetic to Al-Qaeda. He is right about one thing, though. Kerry does look French.

It's a good thing the French can't vote in American elections.”

“it's a good thing that Kerry is going to win the election in November.”

“I just donated some money to the Kerry campaign. First time I ever gave money to a political campaign. I think it is importain that we do all we can to defeat the evil doers (George Bush admin.).”

“yeah, i'm puttin my money where my mouth is too! $100 to Kerry! May the best man win. Kerry for President. Nashville hiker, it's my first time donating money too. Please have good thoughts for my son, he's rotating to Iraq, and my brother is coming home in May from Kuwait! Just heard the news today.”

“I think I am really going to enjoy this election season.

Kerry's repeated gaffes are only going to get worse. I heard someone describe Kerry as being exactly like Howard Dean without the self control.

LOL”

“Hang your hat on that. I'll be laughing at you on November 3rd.”

“that's awesome LaBastillefan!!! Your son and brother are in my prayers. You are right, may the best man win!!”

“The distinguished list of Kerry supporters
Ben Shapiro

While his support among voters dwindles, the John Kerry alliance of elites is growing. Failed Democratic candidates love him. Unnamed European leaders from Kerry's imagination support him. Dictators, socialists and terrorists are hoping for a Kerry victory in November.

Prominent Democrats are rushing to the Kerry bandwagon. On Sunday, Gov. Howard Dean, fresh off his massive Vermont primary victory, endorsed Kerry as someone who would "make a far better president than George Bush." Kerry politely declined Dean's request to "yell with me, Lurch."

On Monday, Rev. Al Sharpton halfheartedly endorsed Kerry, pledging not to attack the Massachusetts milquetoast. Sharpton also pledged to continue his own "urban agenda" campaign until he signs a TV deal. Really. Apparently, part of the "urban agenda" is getting Al Sharpton a multifigure contract in order to raise the average black income. Rumor has it that Sharpton will play Jesus in Black Entertainment Television's remake of "The Passion."

Meanwhile, Kerry continues to beg Al Gore not to endorse him. The only Democratic rival left for Kerry is congressional powerhouse Dennis Kucinich. Both of Kucinich's voters are determined to see a Kucinich victory in the Harvey Milk High School mock election.

But Kerry has bigger game to hunt. According to the candidate, "I've met more leaders who can't go out and say this publicly, but boy, they look at you and say, 'You've got to win this, you've got to beat this guy, we need a new policy,' things like that."

After being challenged by Dick Cheney, Colin Powell and White House spokesman Scott McClellan to name these "foreign leaders," Kerry began backpedaling. "I have had conversations with leaders, yes, recently. That's not your business, it's mine," he told a Pennsylvania audience member. He again refused to name any of the leaders endorsing his candidacy (some sources suggest that Count Chocula supports Kerry -- other sources suggest that Count Chocula is Kerry).

Kerry's supporters do include many well-known foreign leaders. Newly elected Spanish appeaser Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero backs Kerry to the hilt, explaining, "We're aligning ourselves with Kerry. Our alliance will be for peace, against war, no more deaths for oil, and for a dialogue between the government of Spain and the new Kerry administration." Jacques Chirac of France certainly has no great love for President Bush, and neither does Gerhard Schroeder of Germany. Romano Prodi, European Commission president, feels that the Bush "approach itself has not been sufficient to deal with the situation completely. ... Europe's response must be more wide-ranging than the American reaction."

It appears Kim Jong Il of North Korea wants Kerry to divorce the ketchup queen and meet him in San Francisco. His communist-regime newspapers reprint Kerry speeches; his radio mouthpieces broadcast Kerry quotes. Kim told advisers that he would like to see a Kerry administration come 2005.

Kerry desperately continues to take both sides of every issue in an attempt to gain new voters. He voted for authorization to use force in Iraq and then said he was misled. He uses the Patriot Act as ammunition for his stump speeches but voted for it in the Senate. He voted against the Defense of Marriage Act and urged the Massachusetts legislature to stop an anti-gay marriage amendment, but now says he favors such a state amendment.

This is known as "nuance." Nuance in foreign policy was popularized by Bill Clinton, who intimated that his sophisticated knowledge of global affairs meant he could do nothing to stop terrorism for eight years. Nuance was discarded by President Bush, who once remarked, "My job isn't to nuance," and instead focused on killing terrorists.

John Kerry actually attempts to nuance the question of whether he is nuanced. On one hand, he claims that "I refuse ever to accept the notion that anything I've suggested with respect to Iraq was nuanced." On the other, he protests that "Some of these issues are very complicated and deserve more than a simplistic this or that." And that's just one interview with Time Magazine.

"Nuance" may be popular among elites, but it doesn't make for good U.S. policy. It makes for the kind of policy Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero likes. It makes for the kind of policy Kim Jong Il likes. And it makes for the kind of policy Al Qaeda likes.”

Al Jazeera Praises Kerry

Al Jazeera, the Arab news network considered by Westerners to be the voice of al-Qaida, is praising likely Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry as "a popular mainstream Democrat with liberal tendencies, [who] has been widely seen as a good compromise candidate in a divided party."

"A decorated war hero, Kerry supported the attack on Iraq and wants to see a strong U.S. military," notes al Jazeera in a candidate profile on its Web site. "But that hawkish stance is balanced by his promotion of healthcare coverage, workers' rights and environment-friendly practices."

The network favored by Osama bin Laden as the chief venue for his propaganda tapes stressed that although Kerry initially supported the Iraq war, "he has suggested Bush's handling of the campaign is 'f****ed up.'"

Dwelling on Kerry's criticism of the White House, al Jazeera cites his complaints that "Bush misled Americans on the degree Iraq posed a threat," along with accusations from the Massachusetts Democrat that Bush isn't "working closely enough with the wider international community."

The al-Qaida-friendly network also notes, "[Kerry] says excluding France and Germany from rebuilding Iraq was 'dumb and insulting'" - and spotlighted Kerry's charge that the Bush Justice Department has stigmatized "innocent Muslims and Arabs who pose no danger."

Calling Kerry "a relatively liberal senator," al Jazeera explained that he "made a name for himself on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, where he ... exposed the role of President Ronald Reagan's aide Colonel Oliver North in smuggling guns to the Contra rebels in Nicaragua."

Stopping just short of an endorsement, al Jazeera concludes: "Kerry is well placed politically between his party's radical left and arch conservatives. And he has the funds to last the whole season if necessary."”

“Nahville, I do, also. I've gotten seven undecided people here at work to agree to vote for Kerry.

Most of my friends are already liberal (most more than me). The ones that aren't, are so staunchly conservative that they won't vote for him. Most of them have told me they won't vote in this election.”

“It has become even more clear that the Islamo-fascist movement has scored a tremendous strategic victory with its attacks last week in Spain. Dutch economist Bernard Walschots nails it: "Al Qaeda or its affiliates have toppled a democratic government for the first time. This may have dramatic implications for the Western democracies." Did you get that the first time around? The Islamic Jihadists have just toppled the government of a major Western nation. Socialists have taken over in Spain. Islamic terrorists like socialists ... they're brothers under the skin.

This morning we learn that CNN has discovered an Al Qaeda document which set forth a plan to get Spain to pull its troops out of Iraq. Apparently the document was posted on a computer bulletin board some months ago. This document talked about developing a strategy to force the conservative government of Spain out of office and elect socialists. And just how was that going to be done? Terrorist attacks, that's how. So, the plan was formulated, then implemented, and proof of success came quickly. The people of Spain fell into line immediately and voted out a government unfriendly to terrorism, and voted a more friendly one in.

Now Spain is loudly touting its plans to become one of the Axis of Weasels, joining Germany, France, Belgium and other Euroweenie countries in a program of appeasement toward Islamic Jihadists. How weak are the Europeans? Well, let's take this comment from Romano Prodi, the President of the European Commission. Prodi says: "It is clear that using force is not the answer to resolving the conflict with terrorists ... terrorism is infinitely more powerful than a year ago."

Force isn't the answer? If not force, what? Appeasement? Doesn't Prodi remind you of Chamberlain prior to World War II? Read your history. Terrorism always works against the appeasers.

What's next? How about England? Intelligence officials are already suggesting that Great Britain will be next in the Islamic campaign of terrorism. Then ... the United States. The Wall Street Journal editorial this morning says that the U.S. must brace itself for the next wave of attacks. They worked in Spain ... so Al Qaeda must be thinking that they can work as well in America.

This election year just got a whole lot more interesting ... and dangerous.

Spain is surrendering ... but World War IV continues.”

“it's not going to take baseball bats to convince republicans that Bush is no good for this country. Bush is doing all the convincing himself with his stupid remarks, lies, evildoings, murderous rampages, and failed policies. It doesn't take much to see that sky o'er America is darker than it was before Bush took office. Anyone that can't see that has their head up their a$$.”

“Well, the economy was going down when Bush took office. Now it is going up.”
