I got this from military.com At the bottom is a link to the congressional record to check these votes for yourself, if so inclined.

HE SAID TO CHECK THE RECORD......WE DID

Sen. John Kerry Democrat from Massachusetts says he is strongest
Presidential Ca! ndidate on National Defense !
He said Check the Record..

We Did !

Here is what we learned.

He voted to kill the Bradley Fighting Vehicle

He voted to kill the M-1 Abrams Tank

He voted to kill every Aircraft carrier laid down from 1988

He voted to kill the Aegis anti aircraft system

He voted to Kill the F-15 strike eagle

He voted to Kill the Block 60 F-16

He voted to Kill the P-3 Orion upgrade

He voted to Kill the B-1

He voted to Kill the B-2

He! voted to Kill the Patriot anti Missile system

He voted to Kill the FA-18

He voted to Kill the B-2

He voted to Kill the F117

He voted to kill every military appropriation for the development and
deployment of every weapons systems since 1988, inc luding a bill for
battle armor for our troops.

It is most likely, with Sen. John Kerry as President and Commander in !
Chief of our Armed Services, that they will cease to function making
it impossible for our country to protect itself


John Kerry voted to kill all anti-terrorism activities of each and
every agency of the U.S. Government.

He voted to cut the funding of the FBI by 60%,



He voted to cut the funding for the CIA by 80%,

He voted to cut the funding for the NSA by 80%.

THEN, and this is abhorrent to almost every American Voter be you
Democrat, Republican or Independent

He voted to increase OUR funding for UN operations by 800% !!

Ask yourself

Is THIS a the person you want as President of these United States
providing for the Common Defense of the Nation and be the Leader of the
Free World?

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction"

Ronald Reagan

Old stuff. But no matter. This guy is the media darling and its not likely any derogatory revelations of his life will have any effect on his campaign. Hasnt so far anyway. The unmitigated hate for Bush of about 1/2 the population and combined with growing fears(much less if anything detrimental takes place) on Iraq, on the economy or on terroism in general should be enough to propell Kerry into the White House. Not to mention a good segment of the population sees Kerry as uhasuhasuhas "president" as a way of keeping Hillary out in 2008. LOLGod help us all!!!!!!!!!!!!LOL

Heres the Real John Kerry:

Mr. Kerry stated there were “war crimes committed in Southeast Asia...not isolated incidents but crimes committed on a day-today basis with the full awareness of officers at all levels of command. They relived the absolute horror of what this country, in a sense, made them do.” Then Mr. Kerry got specific:

“They had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged the countryside of South Vietnam...we are more guilty than any other body of violations of those Geneva Conventions; in the use of free-fire zones, harassment interdiction fire, search-and-destroy missions, the bombings, the torture of prisoners, all accepted policy by many units in South Vietnam.”


Heres a whole bunch of stuff but like I said the the media isnt interested:

http://www.kerrycountry.org/

This guy is a horror story but nothing has yet to stick. But then IMHO our entire media and a good chunk of our population is a horror story. Prediction: Things will get far worse before they get better.

In defense of DICK(it sickens me to do, but it is the truth), the White House of Bush Sr. was under IMMENSE pressure from the left and the media(big surprise) to provide us with a 'peace dividend'.

Hey morons, the peace dividend is PEACE.

The left makes my head hurt...

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction"

Ronald Reagan

Well get used to the headaches for another 4-16 years. First KJ and tThen HC. LOL And if anyone thinks Im an A-hole(in the seriously derogatory sense of the term. Just wait to those two and their entourages get through with us. Fifty percent of your earnings if not more will go directly to Wsahington. To provide cradle to grave security. Similar to European plans but of course "Americanised" to include anyone from the rest of the world who chooses it. Of course they wont have to contribute, just take. And what about capital gains you ask? All goes to the federal government of course. You cant be trusted with that kind of money.

Of course when they find the proverbial "Golden Goose" dead. Youll get the blame and your whole family goes to prison. For your and their own good ya know.

Of course by then it wont matter for anybody because we will be under a "World Government". It basically in place now. All they have to do now is start tightening the screws or much easier get JK to just "sign zee paper old man".

Now my head hurts. LOL Thx Sniper.LOL

HC is an overblown threat IMO. The woman is utterly reviled- even by many on the left.

I cannot possibly imagine Americans being stupid enough to give her 270 electoral votes.

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction"

Ronald Reagan

Wish I was as optomistic. And look at Kerry or go back and look at little Billy himself. People say they revile them and then go out and vote for them anyway. Mostly because they hate Bush. And in any event the media controls things they slipped up on the last election dont look for it to happen again.This woman is hungry for power and looks to stop at nothing to get it. First Ive heard that anyone on the left does anything but bow and scrape before her. But then again maybe some are getting a hint of her insatiable power hunger. Doubt it though because thats what they are after too. Time tells all things.

PART OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY LOVES HER,BUT ALOT OF THEM WISH SHE WOULD FALL OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH.

WE'LL HAVE A WOMAN PRES IN OUR LIFE TIMES BUT IT WONT BE HER.

CHENEY I DOMT THINK HAS EVER BEEN PRESSURED AND YOU GOT TO REMEMBER WHO WAS THE ONE WHO KEYED THE PHRASE (BUSH SENIOR)
"NEW WORLD ORDER"?
"WHO PUT US TROOPS UNDER UN CONTROLL"?

CHENEY DOES WHAT CHENEY WANTS AND WHATS GOOD FOR CHENEY.

IF THE REPUBLICANS GET HIM OFF THE TICKET THE RACE WOULD CHANGE QUICKLY.

Well he's been president of the united states in a time of war for almost 4 years now.

I'd say he's qualified to do the job he's already doing.

I guess it would have to depend on who you talk to....

Smitty

I suppose so... plus Goose and I probly speak to far different (personality, age, and such) people, so the avg. opinions of said people would be fairly different.... I don't think Goose is a professional pollster and I KNOW I'm not.... I'm not impartial enough
