The unmitigated horror of a Kerry Presidency.

Not so much a blog today, but just a few things that need repeating for the general public.

1.) Goodbye tax cuts. The extra $2000 a year base return I get from Bush's cuts will go bye-bye. That is if Kerry doesn't change his current position.

2.) Hello tax increases. As a small business owner, Kerry has promised to target me for a tax increase. I wonder if he cares what thats going to do to my three childrens future? Being a wealthy aristocrat, probably not. Kerry promises to spend, spend and spend. A program for every American that makes under X amount of dollars a year. He promises to fix the national debt. You know who will really fix the national debt and pay for all these promised programs? You and I, the American public. Get your wallets out and get ready for papa Kerry to tell you how to better spend those hard earned dollars, because in his mind, you don't know how to spend your money wisely.

3.) Kiss any hope of election reform goodbye. Kerry whines about the Swift boat vets, but unlike President Bush, doesn't care about killing the 527 groups that support these type of ads. Perhaps it's because he endorses such attacks? Perhaps it's because Soros and his ilk are the only reason Kerry has made it as far as he has politically? Perhaps.

4.) Expect homeland attacks. I was hesitant to write this, but I have yet to find anywhere where Kerry has stated he would do anything other than "respond to an attack", unless, of course, the global community gives the thumbs up first. Knowing that the UN wont even label whats happening in the Sudan as genocide, expect the US military to be sitting around, wondering why President Kerry keeps vetoing funding for them. This reason alone is enough to not vote for the guy next month, unfortunatley too many people have already forgotten that the USA is at war with a global enemy. You don't think Al-Queda and OTHER terrorist organizations are going to just stop trying to kill all of us do you? Oh, thats right, Kerry thinks that Al-Queda is the only terrorist organization around. He must have figured that out in all the free time he had when he wasn't attending National Security meetings.

5.) Forget about global respect. Don't like President Bush's international policy? You'll hate Kerry's, unless your idea of a good foriegn policy is to change positions constantly, insult other world leaders daily, and exclude regional powers from summit talks. All of these are stated Kerry positions, but once again, you never know how he might shift on this.

6.) Watch for more scandals. Did you like how the memogate scandal led back to Lockheart inside the Kerry campaign? Do you enjoy your leaders secretly meeting with Americas enemies as John Kerry did on his honeymoon? Then you'll enjoy a Kerry Presidency; half the reason this guy can't hold a single position is because he can't remember what the truth is.

Personally, I think it's funny that as Kerry rises in the polls the stock market freaks out. It seems that someone understands this guy is bad for business - American business. Few things scare me, but a potential President Kerry scares me to no end. The reasons above are just the tip of the iceburg, but are more than enough to scare any US citizen, liberal or conservative.

Kerry is an aristocrat. He and his wife show no restraint in thinking they know better than the American public. How anyone could hate Bush so much as to vote for this guy amazes me.

It is really, really sad that hatred for Bush would risk putting someone this transparently inept in office. Given the option, people are dwelling on our faults, not the continuous terrorist acts. They are screaming that the economy is ruined when in almost every aspect it is better than Clinton left it.

I really, really don't get it. It reminds me of the latter days of Rome. People living so far back inside their overfed heads that they can no longer relate to reality. They spend all their time pondering vague "truths" and ignore people who are beheading people, blowing up schools. Living on principle is great until someone willing to stoop below your ethics destroys your civilization.

They'd rather lie and endanger their nation that admit that someone like Bush is right. If Kerry wins, I hope they realize we'll be here holding them accountable for their Kerry activism.

The reference to Rome is on target. Aside from holding our hands over our hearts similar to the Romans (were the only two civilizations that have done this - coincidence?), I agree that we are in the final years of a great empire. Hey, at least we have orgies and vomitariums to look forward to.

And Bush is competent? He is nothing more than Rove's puppet.

Ah, Cabbage, the man is much more intelligent than you would give him credit for. Hatred is so unbecoming. Zombie's perception is right on the money and it pains the left so to see it.

Typical. America gets attack ONCE in the last three year all all of a sudden it's "Oh my god, the sky is falling there are terroists everywhere. Build bomb shelter, give up personal freedoms. Now!"

There are countries going through this all the time and they don't go bomb other countries that have nothing to do with the terroist attacks in the first place.

>>>this guy can't hold a single position is because he can't remember what the truth is.>> program for every American that makes under X amount of dollars a year. >>USA is at war with a global enemy.>>Expect homeland attacks.<<<

If you stop pulling the Tiger's tail, maybe it'll stop biting you. Though you should also get out of the enclosure first.

Yes, I agree.

Funny, over 3,000 people are hurt or injured in an attack on US soil by a foreign institution and some people want to wave it off as nothing more than an illegal border crossing. The war with global terrorists is the sum of more than one attack, and I will assume that Toblerone is simply uninformed rather than purposefully disrespectful to the men and women killed in the first trade center bombing, in the bombing of the USS Cole, in the attack of the Jakarta Australian embassy, of the Indonesian nightclubs that have been bombed, of the 300+ Russian children that were killed by terrorists last month. And the list goes on.

There are three sides to this war: Those that will strike the innocent with no regard for human life. Those that will lay down their own life to protect the innocent and uphold the ideals of a greater civilization, and those that will cover their eyes and ears to the truth of a global war, hiding in the dark and taking refuge in ignorance.

Choose your sides, wars on boys and girls.

I think it is funny that people also pretend that there was no terrorism before 2001. Americans have been targeted and killed Islamic terrorists for decades. Israelis have suffered under this kind of treatment for even longer.

Kerry wants us to return to Carter-era diplomacy. Seeing how badly it botched the world then, I shudder to think of what will happen if we revert back to it.

give me a break... please give some evidence of him being ANYONE' S "puppet"... or is that just more left garbage?

Whose tail, exactly, did we pull? I hope your not talking about 9/11?

Another insightful Zombie.

As Baker states above, a return to Jimmy the peanut head's policies will insure that more americans will suffer.
I remember many acts of terrorism from long before 9/11.

Evidence? Bush's mind is average (even if you think he is intelligent he is still nowhere near Rove) whereas Rove is a genius. Who do you think is going to be calling the shots in that type of relationship? By all means don't take my word for it, do some reading about Rove's and Bush's relationship and their history together. Look at what Rove accomplished before he and Bush got together and compare it to what Bush had accomplished before they got together. Then compare the pre Rove Bush to the post Rove Bush.

i wont, your OPINION means nothing

Look at what Rove accomplished before he and Bush got together and compare it to what Bush had accomplished before they got together.


This has no relevance whatsoever. To say that someone is controlling Bush simply because he accomplished more than Bush did pre-2000 is utterly ridiculous. I said evidence, which means fact, not opinion!

Nooo...evidence does not mean fact.

Definition of evidence: your basis for belief or disbelief; knowledge on which to base belief; "the evidence that smoking causes lung cancer is very compelling")

I have provided you with evidence as you requested.

Well dear Abe by your hypothesis, Bill Clinton was the puppet of James Carville according to your basis for your hypothesis, that if a President is of average intelligence and their Campaigner is of above average intelligence, the President is a puppet of the Campaigner, right?

If Bush is a Chaney or Rove puppet. Thats ok with me. You have said the they are Geniuses.

I would rather have a President having his strings pulled by a genius, then have a President who is an idiot and gets his strings pulled a diffrent way by every opinion poll published to futher his own career at the cost of others.

That's My Two Cents

Riddle me this:

Edwards was talking about Tax Cuts while his partner Kerry was talking about Tax Raises, what is up with that is it a Tax Cut, Tax Raise, or Tax Cut Raise?

Evade and Equate that is the SOP for Democrats and Republicans, thanks for reconfirming it for the Democrats.

Instead of actually talking about, good show Abe your ability to convey thoughts so eloquently has shown through, showing that you yourself are nothing more than a instrument of partisanship than a true non-political partisan human.

Surely you should look further into your political thoughts than to just rebut with an off the cuff remark that has little relevance to the question asked, you could have just answered the difference between the proposed Tax Cut and Tax Raise, like they want to raise Taxes for the Rich while cutting taxes for the lower middle class.

Alas, you chose the way that was the easiest for you to reinforce your partisanship on myself.

Your hypothesis used to reflect Bill Clinton and James Carville.

Clinton's mind is average (even if you think he is intelligent he is still nowhere near Carville) whereas Carville is a genius. Who do you think is going to be calling the shots in that type of relationship? By all means don't take my word for it, do some reading about Carville's and Clinton's relationship and their history together. Look at what Carville accomplished before he and Clinton got together and compare it to what Clinton had accomplished before they got together. Then compare the pre Carville Clinton to the post Carville Clinton.


James Carville was and is a smarter man than Former President William J. Clinton, he was also the Campaigner for Clinton, just as Rove is the Campaigner for Bush, so who is the brains behind Kerry, who is his Chief Smart Man or Woman on his Campaign Staff that is the 'Puppet Master'?

I think if anything, Kerry/Edwards have shown themselves to be people who will say anything to win the election, regardless of whether or not their ideology back up the stance. These are people that consistantly fought tax relief, and constantly voted to raise taxes on the middle class. Now, during the election, they are reversing and pretending that middle class tax relief is the way to go. It's absurd to imagine them with that stance unless you are totally blinded by the need to see them beat Bush in November...

Grim, I was not responding to this. I was responding to your post before this one (# 14). Your reply above is completely nontopical to my assertion that Bush is Rove's puppet.

In response to #21. Clinton is a genius, Bush is not. Clinton accomplished a lot on his own, Bush did not. Rove enlisted Bush whereas Clinton enlisted Carville. As to how long Clinton and Carville have worked together I have no idea. Do you?

Surely you jest, if Clinton was a genius than the Monica Scandal (and others) would have never existed or came to light, right? If you have no idea than your rebuttal that it was not the case with Clinton and Carville as it was with Rove and Bush is wrong. If anything Bush is the puppet of Cheney who is there always with Bush while Rove is off somewhere, or is that the wrong assumption?

You just want a sitting President to be a puppet of their political Campaigner, but have yet to answer the question: Who is Kerry's retainer? Is it Teresa Heinz? Ted Kennedy? Kerry's Campaigner? Koffi Annan? John Edwards? The man is a panderer and would have a retainer just as Bush (which I think IS the puppet of Cheney if he IS a puppet).

"Clinton accomplished a lot on his own, Bush did not."


and all the bad things Clinton accomplished are plusses for Dems now, since they can just blame them on the Bush administration. So I guess if everying is gonna go down the tubes, put it off til the end so that your party can milk it during the next big election...
