>You mentioned you're supporting Kerry. I'm curious as to why someone who claims to be open-minded would do that? He's closer to my values than Bush... that oughta be pretty clear. >He clearly cannot take a stand and has problems with honesty. These, in my mind, are two of the most important attributes of a president, and are the areas in which Bush excels compared to Kerry. Kerry's stands, while not always clear, aren't bad. For instance, I understand what he meant when he said "I voted for thw war before I voted against it." And no, I don't feel that Bush and his administration are honest. I'm not sure how much I trust Kerry's guys either, especially given the fact that he's talking about not increasing taxes on 98% of the populace when I believe that the Bush tax cuts were ludicrous in the first place. >All this talk about 30 years ago is basically immaterial to the decision, IMO. I wish it were... I don't care much about war records, but if the Republicans are running on 9/11, then Kerry's gotta run on the particular defense credential that separates him from Bush. -Z
