Lets count all the lies and half truths Kerry told during the 2nd Presidential Debate. I am sure the list will be long as usual.
Lies 1 through 189: He said, "I have a plan to...."
put up a seperate site and put all the lies there then send it to all the media outlets...... freep em... rub their nose in it.....
#1 200 not 130!! spent on the war
Easy one how many times did he open his mouth?
Show me the Timeber Farm!
Amen Texas Eagle!!
Thanks for the chuckle!!
As I posted elsewhere: When sKerry was asked to look into the camera and say he would not raise taxes, he began blinking rapidly. That is a sure sign he was LYING!
I met with the security council http://www.prweb.com/releases/2004/8/prweb148423.htm
Our troops don't have armor
I've never changed positions
instead of factcheck, we are FREEPCHECK!!!
The general who was quoted as saying we needed more troops was NOT retired by the white house.
I checked the website and here are the issues he has something to say about. None of them says a word about tort reform.

He said he respects LIFE which is the biggest lie of them all. Remember he voted against the ban on partial birth abortions, and explains that a provision for the mother's health wasn't provided. Now, I wish Sen. Kerry or any liberal can give me one example of where a woman's health can be protected by killing a third trimester baby while it is leaving the birth canal?!?!?! If he respected life, he would vote to put an end to this cruel and vicious practice.
That tedious falsehood about the general that was allegedly retired for saying "we need more troops" -- even CNN has mentioned he ought to be told that one is a lie.
"I am a devout Catholic" when he immediately denies the most sacred tenet of the Catholic church -- the reverence for life.
Marc Racicot, Chairman, Bush-Cheney Campaign, has just said Kerry lied about what he said about the Patriot Act.
He spent the same money from his "tax rollback" about ten times over. That does not work when I try it.
He said he'd lower the punishing medical malpractice rate not by tort reform, but by putting the Jackpot Jury fund onto the back of the taxpayers -- the No Trial Lawyer Left Behind Act?
AND -- he forgot to mention THAT HE SERVED IN VIETNAM! Millions of people were waiting to hear him admit it at last!
What does that sideways number "8" mean? Oh, yeah, infinity.
He kind of sort of mentions it under his health care plan
Here's the text of his health care plan. Where does he kinda sorta mention tort reform?
Affordable, high-quality health care will keep our families healthy, our businesses competitive, and our country strong.
Over the last three years, family premiums have increased by more than $3,512 and prescription drug prices have grown four times faster than inflation. These skyrocketing costs have hurt our economy and forced many families into bankruptcy.
We deserve a president who understands that in America, regular check-ups shouldn't empty family checkbooks - a president who will put people ahead of insurance and drug companies.
John Kerry and John Edwards have a plan to address soaring premiums and cut Americans a break. Their plan will lower family premiums by up to $1,000 a year, cut waste from the system, lower the cost of prescription drugs to provide real relief to seniors, and use targeted tax cuts to extend affordable, high-quality coverage to 95 percent of Americans, including every child. And because John Kerry and John Edwards believe that everyone's health is equally important, they will provide all Americans with access to the same coverage that members of Congress give themselves.
To make affordable health care a right - not a privilege - for every American, John Kerry and John Edwards will:
Cut Your Premiums
John Kerry and John Edwards will cut family premiums by up to $1,000. That's $1,000 in real savings people can use to buy groceries, pay the bills, and save for their children's future. And that will mean more jobs and more competitive American businesses.
Cover All Americans With Quality Care
The Kerry-Edwards plan will give every American access to the range of high-quality, affordable plans available to members of Congress and extend coverage to 95 percent of Americans, including every American child. Their plan will also fight to erase the health disparities that persist along racial and economic lines, ensure that people with HIV and AIDS have the care they need, end discrimination against Americans with disabilities and mental illnesses, and ensure equal treatment for mental illness in our health system.
Cut the Cost of Prescription Drugs
The Kerry-Edwards plan will reduce prescription drug prices by allowing the re-importation of safe prescription drugs from Canada, overhauling the Medicare drug plan, ensuring low-cost drugs, and ending artificial barriers to generic drug competition.
Cut Waste And Inefficiency
Today, approximately 25 percent of health care costs are wasted on paperwork and administrative processing. The Kerry-Edwards plan harnesses American ingenuity to cut waste, save billions, and take new steps to ensure patient privacy.
He did mention being in the military lightly and only once. He was smart enough not to make issue of it.
Talk about unilateral, then in his rebuttal to Bush said that eight nations pulled out of Iraq. So is the coalition at a -7 instead of +30?
