9-11 happened on George (AWOL on terror) Bush's watch. He was warned repeatedly, but did nothing. Our military which took out the Taliban and Saddam was fully trained, equipped and recruited during the Clinton years. Every single weapons system which the Bushies claim Kerry voted against (except the MX missile) Kerry also voted FOR several times. Every single cut in defense and intelligence funding Kerry voted for, Cheney, Bush Sr or top rightwing GOP senators also agreed on. Kerry is a Silver Star winning combat hero volunteer. Bush went AWOL and both he and Cheney pulled special strings to dodge the draft and avoid combat.

The radical right is bad news across the board. The only centrist in this administration is Powell...and he was on the outside looking in. Bush has moved so far to the right that most people in the center will be uncomfortable with him, and that leaves the center for Kerry. The right is trying to paint Kerry as a liberal left person, but the paint won't stick as Kerry is a progressive centrist. Bush lies in his ads about Kerry. Saying that he voted against body armor. That is the biggest lie Bush ever told...reason enough to not vote Bush on it's own. Kerry voted for the $87 billion bill, but he also voted for a tax increase on the richest 2% to pay for that bill. The republicans only wanted to put the cost of the war on the credit card...to be paid later by the next generation. If the war is so important, it ought to be important enough to be paid for...instead of running up the deficit. Kerry said, yes to the funding, but also said yes to paying for the war. Republicans are liars...who are running up the deficit to pay for a war that they have had no plan for. Those of us in the center will be voting for Kerry, because Bush has gone off the right side of the table. Orca
