"Both", wow, really going out on a limb there. What do you like about Kerry? I think Kerry makes Clinton seem honorable and GWB sound articulate. Why not Lieberman? Gephardt? Kerry's right down there with Dean and Sharpton, possibly Kucinich.

I agree Ily. Why not Lieberman? Why not Biden? Kerry's a bush leaguer compared to those two.

No, I do not like Kerry. I do like Leiberman, McCain and, of course, Rudy.
Most of all, I DO NOT LIKE POLITICS!

I don't dislike Kerry, I just don't think he is qualified to be President. Months ago I started a thread, "Why Kerry", many of the post were based on the anybody but President Bush theory and bashed President Bush,few provided positive reasons to vote for Kerry.

Only with massive funding increases can science hope to develop machines sensitive enough to measure the respect I have for your opinion.

Notehead,

I've tried to give you some clearance to voice your opnion believing you had something to offer.

After 3 days we can conclude this. You have spent your time fishing the internet for quotes attributed to Bush that he never said. You've been fooled into believing everything on the internet is real.

Now, you post some list that looks as if it were drawn up by a 4th grader. On top of that you take offense when the list is mocked for its stupidity.

you're too sensitive a person to be taken seriously

Aww... who's sensitive?

Just about every quote has the specific time and place noted, and often the event. They are verifiable. Most can be actually viewed on video clips - bandwidth limitations prevent me from posting them, but they're a hoot!

Your boy is dumb as a lump of slag.

Righties have accused lefties of not giving any reasons for actually liking Kerry. I gave some of mine. You don't like them; I don't care.

You mock his list, but saw the need to address every single one of his points? Obviously whatever he has to offer is worthy of your time...
