I agree but....... "wake up" and DO WHAT? What can be done?
A nice Link to Kerry's Voting Record.

When? When Arlen Sphincter tells us who killed JFK? ;-)
I can't believe no one has yet suggested "turn him on to FreeRepublic" so ... turn him on to Free Republic! As Rush says on many occasions, the media is what it is and Hollywood is what it is - we can change neither. But if you shine the light of truth on what is being said, you can make a difference as you have now experienced first-hand.
I still have hope that the people of America will pull out of this hynotic state and reform the Government. I hope that when this happens--not too many lives will be lost. I see hope in the south where people don't roll over for Political Correctness or liberal Speak. I find home in the leathery cowboys of the west who are not convinced of things put into 30 second TV spots. I find hope with the Young People who see through the propaganda fed to them each day by the media and thier Teachers. No, there is cause to find hope even in these desperate times. All we really need is a leader--another Reagan, and the forces of Freedom will once again point the way to greatness.
You know what's odd... you know how Leno and Letterman, etc., make jokes in their monologues of a political nature.... mostly against Bush? Anyhow, I heard this morning that NONE of the late night talk shows have even bothered to tell a joke about Sandy Berger and his escapades. Bergers stuffed pants and socks is PERFECT material for a comedy bit. I don't know if it is true, but if it is that really means that things are bad. "Don't touch the Berger thing, it will make the Dems look bad."
Concerning the movie the MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE: Those on the Left, e.g., Frank Rich, the maker of the film, Liz Smith, are all trying to spin the movie as anti-President Bush. Actually, and most likely not intended, Streep is spot on as Hillary Clinton in her performance as the female senator. In fact, Streep now says (see Smith's gossip column) she based her role on Karen Hughes and Peggy Noonan. Too late, Streep. The damage has been done. See the movie and see who Streep resembles. It's Hillary to a tee. Also, the young and dynamic vice presidential candidate looks a lot more like John Edwards than Dick Cheney.
Little spittle chrissie doesn't shove anyone in our faces cause we dont' watch him.
Thanks. I have also found that the "Swift Boat Vets" story is very effective at changing minds. It is astonishing to find out the percentage of citizens who know NOTHING of the way his fellow soldiers feel about him - "not fit to command". When I have shown this to some folks their ears perked up.
You're right about Streep's act. But check out post # 33. The not-so-subliminal message of the movie is "corporation and capitalism as villain".
I hear you. I just was going to try to tolerate Matthews to see what he was going to say about the 9/11 report. As soon as I saw the ugy countenance of Jamie 'The Wall' Gorelick, I turned it OFF!
I did read it and I meant no offence. Barring W getting caught with kiddie porn on his computer, he will win in November.
LOL! Small chance, not with the very lovely Laura nearby.
A couple of months ago, here on FR, there was a week of, "Bush is no conservative, I voted for smaller govt!" and "He didnt close the borders!" and a whole host of threads and posts where we went back and forth about who was going to sit home, and who was going to hold their nose and vote for Bush. THOSE are the people to worry about. But in their defence, I havent seen much of that since Kerry became the "presumptive nominee.
It's good to hear your words.
Yeh, John-Jaquestrap Effin S.O.B Teresa Winthrop Simoes-Ferreira Al Qerry-Heinz III really brings out the best in us.
;-)
You forgot Jacques Al-Qerry! (Thats my favorite one)
Why is that my job?
Why not post this in a blog instead of under the NEWS?
We're all, most of us, grownups and can deal with most things including if our candidate is not successful and all the tragedy that may befall the country and the world as a result. All the same, we hope the voters are smart and choose to keep this excellent Administration.
