Default Who should I vote for?

I thought this was funny. Regardless of who you are voting for you have to appreciate the irony of it all. Please note, these are not my words.


================================================== ========
I'm confused This was passed on to me, but I can't understand it.
Maybe you can.

I'm trying to get all this political stuff
straightened out in my head so I'll know how to vote come November. Right now, we have one guy saying one thing. Then the other guy says something else.
Who to believe. Lemme see; have I got this straight?

Clinton awards Halliburton no-bid contract in Yugoslavia - good...
Bush awards Halliburton no-bid contract in Iraq - bad...

Clinton spends 77 billion on war in Serbia - good...
Bush spends 87 billion in Iraq - bad...

Ahh, it's so confusing!

Every year an independent tax watchdog group analyzes the
average tax burden on Americans, and then calculates the
"Tax Freedom Day".

This is the day after which the money you earn goes to you, not the government. This year, tax freedom day was April 11th. That's the earliest it has been since 1991.
It's latest day ever was May 2nd, which occurred in
2000. Notice anything special about those dates?

Recently, John Kerry gave a speech in which he claimed
Americans are actually paying more taxes under Bush, despite the tax cuts. He gave no explanation and provided no data for this claim.

Another interesting fact: Both George Bush and John
Kerry are wealthy men. Bush owns only one home, his ranch in Texas. Kerry owns 4 mansions, all worth several million dollars. (His ski resort home in Idaho is an old barn
brought over from Europe in pieces. Not your average
A-frame).

Bush paid $250,000 in taxes this year; Kerry paid
$90,000 (yet earned 66 million last year).
Does that sound right? The man who wants to raise your
taxes obviously has figured out a way to avoid paying his own.
