Name one thing that Kerry did after the war that you disagree with

1. Soon as he got back he joined up with Kennedy to start his political career.

2. At that point, it mattered not ONE DAMN to him that there were still soldiers in VN, and that the Viet Cong were using his speeches to hurt American POWs

3. Jane Fonda was financing his little projects.

4. Tossed "his" medals away in protest, only later we find out he lied...they were NOT his, he was holding his in reserve, just in case he needed them to run for office on his war record...hmmmm.

5. Shut down the POW-MIA search by making agreements with the North V.

6. Dukakis right hand man

7. Horrible voting record in the Senate.

8. Did I mention horrible voting record in Senate?

I could go on and on....

Tell me about what part of Kerry's Senate record that you disagree with.

1. On Key Votes, Kerry Voted 100% Of The Time With Senator Kennedy In 2001, 1999, 1998, 1993, 1992, 1989, 1988, 1987, 1986, and 1985. Over the course of his Senate career, Kerry has sided with Senator Kennedy 94% of the time for key votes. (Roll Call Key Votes, oncongress.cq.com, December 2001)

2. Kerry And Kennedy Had Exactly The Same Low Rating From The American Conservative Union In Both 2001 (4%) And 2000 (12%). Kerry’s lifetime rating from the ACU is 5%. (American Conservation Union Website, www.acuratings.org, Accessed December 9, 2002)

3. Kerry Is Against The Death Penalty. “I’m opposed to the death penalty in the criminal justice system because I think it’s applied unfairly . . . .” (NBC’s “Meet The Press,” December 1, 2002) (((UNLESS IT IS A TERRORIST, THEN HE AGREES WITH DEATH PENALTY))) MORE FLIP FLOPPING!!

4. Kerry Is An Extreme Environmentalist Who Voted With The Activist Group, The League Of Conservation Voters, An Average Of 95% Of The Time In The Last Three Congresses. (League Of Conservation Voters Website, www.lcv.org, Accessed December 9, 2002)

There seems to be quite a bit of evidence about Bush's drinking and drug use.

Duh...Bush admitted his drinking and stopped it..period. There is no evidence of any drug abuse, other than in the dreams of you pinheads and your hate sites.
