KERRY SEZ REPUBLICANS CAN'T ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT HIS MILITARY SERVICE AND VOTING RECORD

Kerry said. "He will not allow questions to be raised about his commitment to defense by the Republicans who never fought in a war".

What is the expression? Turn about is fair play. If the Republicans can't ask him questions because they lack an experience he claims, then he loses his right to ask Bush and the Republicans questions about the President's performance since Kerry has never held the job. More to follow...

EDWARDS' RESORT TO DNC PLAYBOOK RESULTS IN
FOREIGN POLICY COMMENT FAUX PAX


Message 19840516

In a session with reporters after an event at a Manhattan UNITE union hall here today, Edwards was unaware of a contentious dispute between the United States and the European Union, which has threatened to impose retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods in March if Congress does not repeal a corporate tax credit that the World Trade Organization has ruled amounts to an illegal trade subsidy.

"I'm not sure I even know what you're talking about," Edwards said when asked whether he supports the corporate tax credits that lie at the heart of the dispute. "If I understand what you're asking, and I'm not sure I do ... I'm opposed to us using our tax system to give tax breaks to American companies who are shipping jobs overseas."

But the issue doesn't involve outsourcing jobs. The issue revolves around the Foreign Sales Corporation provision that grants federal tax credits to corporations that export good overseas
