11th reason to not vote Kerry--he doesn't know how to operate a football coming or going.

I look at DU occassionally just to see how crazy they are. Lately, they have been so full of hate, I can't see how they can function in normal life. We definitely don't need nutcases like that in charge of our democracy.

Kerry, Kennedy, Klinton, Karter; they're all stupid!

The beneficial accomplishments of these four wouldn't cover a postage stamp! Volumes, however, would be churned out in regards to their sliming of America.

Kerry is a monster and a sociopath.

As are his followers. Just tune into the news this week, and see for yourself. These protesters are downright scary.

Watching these sick wacko's and what they can do is, at first, amusing, and at the same time, disturbing. They make going to a Grateful Dead concert seem like going to Sunday school.

Sorr, but I'm one of those who's not voting against Kerry, I'm voting FOR Bush.

It's the Dems who are voting against; they will vote for anyone but Bush irrespective of their abilitiy to lead. Needing reasons to vote against implies that one's chosen candidate is the lesser of two evils. Not in this case.

Carter was a lousy president but is a great a humanitarian. Can't say much for the others you mentioned.

A "great humanitarian" doesn't play apologist and useful idiot for murderous totalitarian regimes around the world.

How so?

Surely you don't believe this fool digs into his own pockets and distributes largesse to the poor?

Perhaps you're thinking about the Habitat For Humanity, where he drives nails (to promote his legacy) into tar-paper shacks.

Perhaps his humanitarianism became apparent when he left the Baptist Church because of their rigid stance on abortion and homosexual behavior.

He was and is a lousy American.

Oh, I almost forgot the Panama Canal giveaway.

It might make "swing" voters pause, *think* and vote Bush.

Yes, I am referring to Habitat for Humanity. One does not have to use their own money to be a humanitarian.

Too weak on WW IV. Kerry will allow the Islamists sanctuaries and time because he can’t commit a ‘pre-emptive’ attack.

And President Bush has effectively given them sanctuaries in the U.S. by proclaiming this ridiculous notion of Islam being the "religion of peace." Didn't I just read on FR this morning that Bush is reaching out to the Muslim voters in this country?

1. Partial-birth abortion. Kerry says life begins at conception. So, he thinks stem cells are live humans. Yet, Kerry wants to create and kill stem cells for research. Worse, Kerry voted against stopping the barbaric infanticide, partial-birth abortion. Kerry won’t lift a finger, or speak a word, to protect the sanctity of life.

President Bush did well in signing the partial-birth abortion ban, but he's shown himself a bit tepid on the stem cell research issue. While not allowing all fetal stem cell research to proceed, he did, as you remember, allow some limited fetal stem cell research to proceed a couple of years ago.

2. U.S. Supreme Court. Kerry will put more black-robed priest-kings in the judiciary. Kerry may get to nominate four justices to the U.S. Supreme Court. Judicial tyranny will get worse with Kerry. The Constitution will be shredded, perhaps, fatally.

If Bush follows the example of his Republican forebears, he too will appoint such people as Sandra Day O'Connor to the bench to further shred the Constitution. It's already been shredded anyway: The First Amendment by the Campaign Finance Reform Act, the Second by the Assault Weapons Ban which Bush has declared he'll re-sign if given the chance.

3. Taxes. Candidate Clinton promised a tax cut and raised taxes. Here it comes again. Kerry has voted at least 98 times in the Senate to raise taxes. Kerry’s class warfare against the ‘rich’ (excepting his personal billionaire’s tax shelters) will attack most Americans with new taxes.

And Bush has given us built-in future tax increases with his massive spending increases on such boondoggles as the Medicare entitlement and the No Child Left Behind Act.

4. Family and Marriage. Kerry will roll over, smiling, when the courts declare homosexual marriage the ‘law of the land’. Kerry is so extreme he voted against the Defense of Marriage Act (President Clinton signed the bill).

I appreciated Bush's stance against homosexual marriage, but I felt his tack was wrong. The Constitution should instead have been amended to say that the Full Faith and Credit clause shall not apply to marriages, leaving the states to decide the issue for themselves.

5. Social Security. Kerry will not privatize the current Ponzi scheme. The younger generation will pay the bill or break the government promises to the People.

I doubt seriously that I'll ever see a penny of Social Security. It should be dismantled entirely in a gradual but progressive plan for total privatization. Bush is much closer than Kerry on this one, but still hits a bit too short.

6. Illegal Immigration. It’s hard to imagine Kerry being weaker than President Bush on immigration. Yet, he is likely to shove more government programs to support illegal aliens.

Bush is as weak as any President ever has been on immigration. There is no difference whatsoever between Kerry and Bush on this one.

7. Too Liberal. Kerry is rated THE MOST LIBERAL senator by liberal, issue and conservative policy organizations. More liberal than Hillary Clinton. More liberal than Teddy Kennedy. Name your big government nightmare – socialized health care, PC education, quotas, anti-property, anti-individual rights, regulations, etc, - Kerry is for it.

Kerry is too liberal, but some of those same marks of liberalism i.e. socialized health care (think Medicare entitlement) and PC education (think No Child Left Behind) are also hallmarks of President Bush as well.

8. Flip-Flopping. Kerry supported pulling U.S. troops from Europe and Asia on August 1 st. Kerry opposed the same on August 19 th. The list goes on and on.

Kerry is about as bad a flip-flopper as there ever was.

9. Untrustworthy. Kerry spoke often about being in Cambodia on Christmas 1968 when Nixon was President. Nixon wasn’t President until January 1969. Kerry said the memory of being in Cambodia on Christmas was “seared, seared, in memory”. Now, the same people who lied for President Clinton about Monica are out shouting in public for Kerry.

Kerry is indeed untrustworthy. But something happened the other day that raised my eyebrows at Bush. When he decided to sue all the 527s, including the Swiftboat Vets who've been so helpful to him, thereby enforcing his unconstitutional CFR act I lost all my trust in him as well. He'd attack any one of us if it'd help his re-election campaign no matter how much we'd done for him. That makes him untrustworthy in my book. Political expedience at the expense of truth is dishonorable no matter who chooses it.

I choose neither Kerry nor Bush. Peroutka for President 2004!

Besides nailing tarpaper Jiminy certifies crooked marxist elections.

He is a fool who tirelessly works to undermine America and our hemisphere.

Well, Marco, it would seem we're damned if we do and double-damned if we don't.

What's the answer?

Who is going to pop up and save America from leaders who would destroy us?

The only name I can come up with is the current governor of South Carolina, Sanford. He appears, so far, to be a true conservative! That being the case, the entrenched RepublicRATs uniting with their DemocRAT allies across the aisle will crucify a true conservative president.

You would think with all that money she could do something about her looks.

One does not have to use their own money to be a humanitarian.

I overlooked that sentence.

That description aptly fits the demagogic gaggle of congresscritters who serve themselves in Washington.

Habitat for Humanity?
Isn't that where Carter went around the world building palaces for dictators?
