During the recent Presidential Debate, John Kerry stated that if he becomes president, he will see to it that EVERY American receives exactly the same healthcare program as the members of the House of Representatives and the Senate now enjoy. This has to be the largest whopper he has told to date. The healthcare program enjoyed by members of congress and their families is totally free and covers everything. While Kerry's other campaign promises have been predicted to cost multiplied trillions of dollars, this particular one by itself would bankrupt the country!
he will lose
What`s amazing to me is how this guy can BS every single day and the press never calls him on it (no liberal media?). He could say "I just swam across the Atlantic" and all these idiots would nod their heads in agreeement. Once a day this guy tells a whopper and it`s just ignored, the latest being Bush is at fault for high gas prices because of his "buddies in the oil business"..Anyone ask sKerry for proof of that? Nope.
The reason that Kerry can get away with it in most areas of the country, not here, is that most people don't listen, don't care, if they do care, they don't check up on anything, and the MSM certainly isn't going to balance anything.
Sorry, but that DEMANDED repeating. Tis a universal truth. I'm slack-jawed by the imbalance in the MSM this election cycle. Kerry gets a pass on EVERYTHING: gaffes in debates (such as OGBYN, Treblinka), lies on the campaign trail (see ABCNews' memo, $200 billion on Iraq, net millions of jobs lost), chronic vagueness of "I have a plan..." DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN SPECIFICS MATTERED?
Instead of talking about Kerry taking something from his pocket, in absolute violation of the rules, we're talking about what caused the wrinkle in Bush's suit!
Instead of talking about Kerry's elitist economic profiling, saying "Saddam was absolutely a threat" to saying "Iraq was not a threat" IN THE SAME DEBATE, we're talking about Kerry's lead in phony online polling.
Instead of the separation of church & state crusaders, the ACLU, suing when Kerry, Sharpton & Jackson go into black churches and SCARE-MONGER, and CAMPAIGN, we hear the MSM repeat the big lie that "over 1 million African Americans were disenfranchised in 2000."
Oh, did I mention Kerry saying he can't legislate an "article of faith" for those who don't share it? Um... Senator, government (especially one headed by you) does that ALL THE TIME, just ask the Christian Fundamentalists, the FAITHFUL Catholics, the Orthodox Jews... WHAT A MORON.
One could spend an entire day going through the hypocrisy, calling the MSM on the free-pass given Kerry, Edwards idiocy on the Sunday Shows... in which have a first-term absentee Senator, an untested VP candidate who CHANNELED dead fetuses to line his pocket with MILLIONS.
Makes you want to scream some balance back into things, sometimes.
I have resorted to wearing leather belts around my head to keep my head from exploding..
In another thread, a "true Conservative" is saying that conservatives shouldn't be voting for Bush...I went for another belt..
Re #6--fantastic post!
The one problem nobody seems to pay attention to is that Congress has to approve all these promises Kerry is spotting off. And Congress is a a majoriity Repulian.
Excellent!
Tell the Bush Campaign.
