What I don't understand is why the President doesn't turn the tables on Kerry when presented an opportunity. For example: the topic of the assault weapons ban. If it was so important to Kerry, he could have introduced a bill to extend it in the senate, no? (But that would have meant actually doing the job to which he was elected!) Kerry has a distinct record of chronic underachievement and that is extending to his run for the presidency.

He seems to disagree with the Catholic Church's position on divorce as well as abortion and stem cell research.
His cafeteria Catholic tray is looking pretty empty.

The Swifties should make an ad on this. The reason they oppose Kerry:
He exxagerated his accomplishments then and he exaggerates his accomplishments now. 5 bills vs 56 bills. Turning acts of cowardice into acts of heroism, purple hearts, weathering fire from both banks ...
After VN he turned on his fellow soldiers just as he is turning on Bush now. Kerry has been in Washington much longer than Bush yet all these problems apparently cropped up under Bush's watch. Clinton with the strongest economy couldn't to anything to solve these problems but but Bush is a failure because he can't solve them while fighting a war and a recession.

Pathetic legislative record for sure. I lived there. He was a a womanizer before he hooked Teresa. He gave the Senate short shrift. He's a bum.

There isn't much that he does agree on when it comes to traditional Christianity. Objectively speaking, he is living in "mortal sin" as we Catholics call it. In other words, he is dead in his sin; cut off from the living grace of God through his own self-serving behavior and perverted desires.
It really irks me when he reverts to his "cathilic faith" as the basis for anything: as if the Faith was of any import to him. I pray for his conversion of heart and leave him to the mercy of God. But, IMHO, I think his bishop should "... deliver this man to Satan for the destruction of his flesh, so that his spirit may be saved on the day of the Lord.[1 Cor 5:5]" (excommunication)

Another notable is the context of the FIVE bills this worthless lout wrote.
- Amend The Small Business Act With Respect To The Women's Business Center Program.
- Redesignate The Federal Building Located At 380 Trapelo Road In Waltham, Massachusetts, As The "Frederick C. Murphy Federal Center."
- Authorize Appropriations For The Marine Mammal Protection Act Of 1972
- Authorize Appropriations To Carry Out The National Sea Grant College Program Act
- Relief Of Kil Joon Yu Callahan
MINUTIAE!!!!
This is beyond pathetic! He should have been given the boot long long ago.

I know this is perverse, but if all senators managed to be this "unproductive" wouldn't we all be better off? Especially if this yaboo is the most left wing senator, why would we have wanted him to be championing all sorts of "legislation"?

Thanks for the revision. It was 4 resolutions and 1 bill. Not a great record for 20 years of service.

actually they were talking the other day on here that he divorced her and only recently got an annulment so the church would accept Teresa as his wife. Now I think that's what I heard. If not, can someone correct this? But that would go along with his need to cleanse records and get prepared to run for president.

"John Kerry's statement that he passed 56 5 or 6 bills during his 20 years in the senate is a complete and utter falsehood. Kerry passed five bills and four resolutions." Kerry was just misunderstood.Inadvertent mistake, of course!!
What really gets me irate is that the dimwit media will NOT report that Kerry lied when he said '56 bills?' They are quick to report that GWB supposedly lied to the American people about WMD BUT they give Kerry a pass on every lie he tells!!!!
To: CMailBag
That's the way I heard it too - you know, be it resolved that the First of November will be known as "Useful Idiot Day" every Leap Year kind of thing.

To: dennisw
IIRC, Carl Cameron, on FoxNews after the debate, confirmed to Brit that Kerry 'signatured'/sponsored 56 bills that passed both the House and Senate, but only 5 of those were signed into law by a President.
[So, Presidents pocket vetoed 51 of Kerry's bills.]

I too detest people who have such a superficial level of supposed faith. Either you are Catholic/Reformed/Lutheran/whatever or you are not. You can't split the two.
Don't act like one of the elect if you aren't.
(Hope you are well) GC
