Got tired of hearing about Kerry's plan, his plan, He has not told us what any of them are yet but he has a plan. Is it me or does he turn every question directed toward him into a chance to slam Bush.

Typical Kerry:
KERRY REBUTTAL: "I've never changed my mind about Iraq. I believed Saddam Hussein was a threat... But I would have used that force wisely... Not rushed to war without a plan to win the peace."
THEN KERRY SAYS IRAQ WASN'T A THREAT: Says situation has gotten worse in Iran while Bush was "pre-occupied with Iraq where there wasn't a threat."
Which is it John???

Vote for Kerry if.....
If you support the right of people of the same sex to marry........
(That means your brother can marry another man)
If you support abortion
(AKA Killing babies. He never saw an abortion bill he didn't vote for)
If you want to see our military gutted and rendered impotent........
(He voted against every military arms procurement bill for 20 years. If it were up to him our troops would be shooting at the terrorists with BB guns.)
If you support giving the vote to convicted felons.........
(Why shouldn't murderers and dope pushers be allowed to vote?)
If you like higher taxes.........
(He has promised to rescind the Bush tax cut. In 20 years in the Senate he never voted against a tax increase. He voted 98 times to raise taxes.)
If you liked Hillary Clinton's National Health Plan........
(Free medical treatment for all (you do not have to get a job if you would rather just lay around your house all day and smoke crack) given in Government operated hospitals manned by Government employee doctors (probably GS-7). The estimated cost is $653 billion in ten years. Kerry's plan is based on the Canadian plan where your have to wait four months for an MRI, and three years for routine surgery)
If you want us to cut and run in Iraq.....
(He has a secret plan to get us out of Iraq.)
If you like the idea of our President getting permission from foreign nations (France and Germany) before acting in our own defense..........
(He calls it "the Global Test.")
If you would like our military forces to be under the control of Kofi Annan and the U.N.......
("I will never send our troops into war without the approval of the U.N.")
Then you should vote for JOHN KERRY.
(He really is a very smart man. First he married a millionaire's widow. They had two children, and then he met a billionaire's widow, so he dumped his first wife and married her. Then, although divorced, he solemnly walks to the altar of his Catholic Church every Sunday for communion. Weather you like Catholics or not, don't you think if someone is going to be a Catholic, you should abide by the rules. But then again, he has never had to abide by any rules..)
This is what Kerry is, and what he stands for as far as we can tell today. However, he may change his mind tomorrow, this evening, or next week.
P.S.
M.Hienz Kerry had a prenuptial agreement prior to marrying John Kerry.
If she doesn't trust him with her money, how are we supposed to trust him with ours as well as our country?

Re: Who Is Watching the Debate Right Now??
Hey Sharkey...good points, but Canadians all laugh at the U.S. medical system. It is an urban myth that Canada has a bad health care system. It is actually very good. The waiting you constantly hear about is a joke. Those that do not need immediate treatment must wait, true, but so what? I have not heard of any serious complaints about this. Immediate care needs get immediate care. I walked into a hospital with stomach pains and was transferred to an operating room within twenty minurtes for an emergency appendix removal. my cost was about $10 for this. Major operations cost than than a hundred bucks (governement pays for most of it) compared to hundreds of thousands in the U.S.
Fact: Canada spends about 10% of GDP on health care for everyone, the U.S. spends 14% of GDP on expensive health care for a PORTION of the population. Why is it expensive? Because doctors are terrified of lawsuits hitting them for failing to do every MRI etc. test you could think of. Many are simply not neccesary. According to Bush, the U.S. government pays out 20 billion a year in legal costs for medical malpractive suits.
Kerry and his friends are the problem...it is ILLEGAL to sue a doctor in Canada. Bad doctors in Canada get investigated and kicked out of the profession. It works just fine. Plus there is not the crazy and expensive paperwork trail of health care insurance/claims as in the U.S. No one goes bankrupt over medical costs or insane expensive drug costs. Most Canadians in the U.S. that get seriously ill immediately run back to Canada for quality heath care that won't bankrupt them. Canadians live longer than Americans. I'd take the Canadian medical system here in a minute. But, Canada won't permit FOX news, perferring to broadcast anti U.S. crap, so I think I'll stay here. <gg>
So make your choice..vote democrat so lawyers like the Clintons, Kerry and Edwards can continue to sue doctors and raise medical costs, or vote republican to reallocate the money resources more correctly, and do more needed reforms like portable health insurance etc. Somehow I think you are predisposed to make the right choice. <G>
P.S. several friends of mine are excellent medical specialists in Canada, constantly urged by hospitals in the U.S. to come work for them with bigger paychecks. Once they checked into the medical malpractive insurance costs that DO NOT EXIST in Canada, they determined they would make far LESS in the U.S. NONE will make the move.
