Do you believe Kerry is teling the truth? Do you believe he supports Bush's operation of the Battle of Iraq?

Do I believe he's telling the truth? Not necessarily. But that's not relevant to my point, which is: I'm tired of being told I "parrot" Kerry and Edwards - - when they're talking like you about Iraq, not like me.

Andrew Sullivan is being duplicitous.

He's for the Two Johns for one reason: they are pro-homosexual marriage.

Period.

The problem is cognitive dissonance. Kerry and his VP say one thing while the base of their party has other views. See excerpt from an article below.

It shows in startling clarity when you ask: What do Democrats really believe? The answer for the activist heart of the party is suggested by a Boston Globe poll of a cross section of 400 delegates. As the Globe reported, 80 percent of them say they opposed the decision to start the war in Iraq and 95 percent oppose it now. Unlike Kerry, 62 percent support gay and lesbian marriage. Almost nine out of 10 describe themselves as supporters of gun control

Do you believe any politician, other than a handful, tells the truth? I don't. Heck, Dubya said he was for small government and *domestic* spending has skyrocketed during his administration. Watch what they say not what they do.

That's watch what they do not what they say.
