I think items 11 & 12 are the real reason for your post.

America does not want Kerry.

Why?

Well he commited war crimes in Viet Nam, he did not support Viet Nam vets or the Viet Nam people.


He has historiclly voted down defence, Viet Nam Vets pay, Social Security while taking a ton of money from Corporations.

He flips and flops on all issues depending on who he is addressing

John Kerry would declare himself a cannibal tomorrow if he thought it would garner him more votes. He is no different than any other slobbering demagogue the Democrats have thrown into the political arena during the last 50 years or so.

You would do well to disbelieve at least 95% of what John Kerry says, promises, or otherwise spews out of his long wrinkly face. Trust me on this, I have seen this all before, too many times before actually.

I urge you to vote for George Bush. John Kerry will be a disaster. We need four more years of Bush. Trust me on this also.

You're right, Bush hasn't quite finished destroying schools with 'Leave No Child Behind'. I'm still amazed that he stands up and acts like this is a good project, when any reasonably aware parent or teacher has discovered that it is not.

Unless of course your goal is to destroy public education in America, then it's great.

Is public education working in America? My understanding and I'm sure you know more about it than I do is that US students competency has been in decline for quite some time. Is this wrong or perhaps the wrong way to look at it?

[/ QUOTE ]

Get real. I didn't know government agents were making house calls these days to ensure people weren't shagging the neighbor's dog. Anyone reading this could be spanking it in about 2 clicks and 30 seconds. Unless you mean you don't want the government to try and catch pedophiles. Excepting this, please give an example as to how the government is in YOUR bedroom (I'll save you some time - please don't cite the recent Texas sodomy law. Law enforcement agents were on the premises for a completely different reason - not to see if two men were poking each other. They just happened to catch them in the act and made a poor decision in arresting them.).

By the way, I wish every judge in America was a clone of Antonin Scalia. No one in any part of the political spectrum has anything to fear from a man like this, as he simply reads the Constitution for what it is and rules accordingly. Liberal activist judges such as Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who like to legislate their personal views from the bench, are contributing to the eventual fall of our Republic more than anything else in America today.
