Kerry's not a liberal? Yeah, sure. And the sun isn't hot, and water isn't wet, and grass ain't green, either.

[T'wit]

>> Its just a viagra surge

If I were married to Teresa Heinz Scumbag Kerry, I'd make a point of leaving Viagra off my shopping list. If I were married to Elizabeth Edwards, I'd flush the Viagra down the toilet and then go pop a bottle of strychnine.

"Speaking last night to 8,000 people on 89-year-old Maggie West’s farm" 8,000, yeah, sure.

LOL!

"I am not a liberal" = "I am not a crook."

YES.

[Casloy]

In Buchanan, a tiny Pike County village, Kerry stopped at the Village Grocery and asked owners Paul and Debra McKnight, "Can I get me a hunting license here?"

What a condescending jerk. If they were black he probably would have said, "Looki hea, Is dis am da place to get dem dar huntin licenses."

[LS]

This is a flat LIE!!! XENIA IS NOT "BUSH COUNTRY." It is a poor, mostly DEM part of Dayton. If Kerry were in "Bush Country," he would be campaigning in WARREN COUNTY or in Cincinnati!!!!!!

[Casloy]

There is no morality in cutting 500,000 children from after-school programs and 390,000 from Medicaid health coverage "so wealthy people get a tax cut," Kerry said.

Proving once again Kerry doesn't understand the difference between morality and public policy. When does a tax cut become moral or immoral? How many kids cut from after school programs is moral versus immoral? What a total fool.

I know liberals that wouldn't bad mouth their fellow soldiers when their fellow soldiers are still fighting a war.

Also I know liberals that don't have to explain everything they say 5 and 6 times because no one can comprehend what they've said.

I know liberals that will not call a guy that after getting caught stealing important 911 documents in his socks a great man, as Kerry did with Sandy Berger.

I know liberals that would never call the president at a time of war a liar, knowing that their statements help the enemy's motivation to kill more of our soldiers!

I think most liberals don't know what "liberal" stands for and we should stick to the issues in specific and stop letting Kerry and these democrats distract voters on the word instead of his record!!!!

Someone with graphics skills: Can't we get a shot of Kerry in an Elmer Fudd costume? "Be vawry vawry quiet!"

Kerry's Show and Tell.........Show him buying license; show him wearing hunting jacket; show him buying gun. Tell: HE tells us that he is a regular guy and not a liberal. Truth is in his POLITICAL motivation.

***Kerry, clad in the barn jacket he wore last winter in Iowa en route to winning the caucuses, sought to connect with socially conservative Ohioans on a bus tour through areas Bush carried in 2000, making several "impromptu" stops thick with symbolism. ***

*** Kerry's Show and Tell.***

Bump!

[Cincinatus' Wife]

***.....While Kerry, in the last debate, embellished his Senate history, the Associated Press examined the record. It found that only eight laws — eight in almost 20 years — had Kerry as lead sponsor. Two were resolutions designating "World Population Awareness Week." Another designated a day to honor the 10th anniversary of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. Another designated a day to honor POWs and MIAs. Another renamed a federal building in Waltham, Mass. Two others related to the fishing industry, and the other provided grants to support small businesses owned by women.

That's the Senate record of accomplishment of a man who offers competence in all matters related to national security and the health care delivery system in the United States. The talk is not supported by the do.

The other concern is that the past is a guide to how Kerry would lead in the war on terrorism. Here his post-Vietnam record is entirely relevant. It is an indicator of how he would perform in the future. Talk doesn't matter. Character does. Kerry's a debate hawk chosen by an anti-war party.

Not surprisingly, when people in military service and their families were asked who they would trust to be the commander in chief, Bush was preferred 69 percent to 24 percent, almost a 3-1 margin.

Talking points and debate style don't matter to potential adversaries nor to those who stand against them. What matters is core convictions and the resolve to abide by promises made.

John Kerry looked his fellow servicemen and women in the eye — and then betrayed them, by misrepresenting their service in a way that helped turn the country against them. That's the record of past behavior. And that is the best predictor of future actions.***

From the local paper, Kerry called his hunting license a "$140 duck".

He's probably after a 16 point DUCK

"Can I get me a hunting license here?"

"How much is the Rich Widow Stamp?"

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Public policy is morality to a LIBERAL - or so they say when they want your vote.

In the real world, Form Follows Function.

Designs based on form always prove unusable and fail.

The Kerry Ohio campaign design is shown to be purely form. It will fail.

Can you imagine the embarassment at being faced with a Presidential candidate buying a nonresident hunting license?

[Edit35]

Yeah he got a hunting license, but it was for gerbils.

[DUMBGRUNT]

He plunked down $140 in cash for a nonresident Ohio hunting license
CASH ?????????

Who hauls wads of cash around anymore?
