Supporters Of Kerry Blindly Support Him, Ignore Reality, Record
The Eureka Reporter ^ | 15 September 2004 | Chris Williams

Posted on 09/17/2004 1:56:55 PM PDT by Space Moose

In the eyes of Democrats, John Kerry can do no wrong. They don't judge him on what he has done, but only on what he promises to do, blindly ignoring reality, his inconsistent record and the hard facts of his 20-year voting history.

He supported ousting Saddam Hussein for years, but ran for office as the antiwar candidate, and now claims he's tough on defense. He was against the war in Iraq, but voted for it, then against the money to fight it with.

He was against gay marriage, then for it, and now censures the San Francisco mayor who sanctioned it. He says he is Catholic, and believes that life begins at conception, but is also pro-abortion, which Catholics oppose.

He claims he served heroically in Vietnam (just check out his home movies), but immediately converted to rabid war protester on his return. Though he accused himself and his fellow servicemen of heinous war crimes, he now claims to be a war hero, and uses the same men he then condemned as character references today. He reportedly threw away his medals in protest, but they now magically adorn his Senate office wall.

He testified before Congress, and elsewhere, that he was in Cambodia on Christmas Eve 1968, which proved false. He also blamed President Richard Nixon for sending him there and lying about it, when LBJ was president at the time.

Kerry claims to be an American patriot, but is honored in the Hanoi War Museum as a foreign activist who helped the communists defeat the U.S. in Vietnam. He has also been officially endorsed by the U.S. Communist Party.

He promises to represent the common man, but has no clue about real life. He was born to wealth and privilege, is worth millions, is married to a billionaire and has no real life experience. He has accepted millions from powerful special-interest groups, and votes consistently against proposals of concern to the middle class.

He hypocritically denounces big corporations that "outsource" their jobs to save on labor costs, while he and his wife are equally guilty – most Heinz ketchup factories are located overseas. He also condemns gas-guzzling vehicles, but drives SUVs and owns yachts and jet planes, all notorious with conservationists.

He preaches against making military service an issue, except for his own, which he's made the centerpiece of his campaign. Now he is trying to silence those 60 pesky eye witnesses and the 254 combat mates who dispute his claims of heroism.

Instead of addressing their allegations, Kerry has now filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission to stifle the swift boat vets' freedom of speech, and has also threatened the publishers of their book and the stations playing their ads with lawsuits.

Kerry claims to be strong on defense, but voted against every major military appropriations bill since 1988, including battle armor for our troops. He pledges to upgrade our intelligence agencies, but voted to kill all antiterrorist activity of every agency of the U.S. government, including slashing funding of the FBI by 60 percent, of the CIA by 80 percent and of the NSA by 80 percent. He promises to be tough on terrorism, but while on the Senate Intelligence Committee he missed almost 80 percent of committee hearings, and is now "too busy" to attend the terrorist-update sessions offered by President George W. Bush.

John Kerry is obviously unqualified to be president, but his supporters are so blinded by fanatic anti-Bush hatred, they have completely lost their objectivity. They overlook the discrepancies between his past votes and present promises, dismiss the contradictions and ignore the lies. Blind faith may have its place, but not in the election for president of the United States.

I do have a problem with a political party that would inflict 4 years of Kerry's droning speech on their own country.

Kerry is still a rich boy looking for an identity. Most of his supporters are only Bush haters. The rest are clueless, or he's the only one we got.

I think Kerry is the only one who actually thinks he could win this election. I know the Clintons don't.

Check out the John F. Kerry Timeline. Email it to your friends.

Actually the rural areas of CA are fairly conservative and Republican. However, the population density is centered in the Bay and LA areas. Alas, if those areas would just slip off into the ocean, this would be a good state.

After spending the first four decades of my life in Berkeley, I am familiar with California and its politics. However, I always thought of Eureka as part of the Humboldt birkenstock/granola cult. Its good to see some sanity there.

Do you remember the guy who talked fast, who did the Micro Machines commercials? We need to get him to read this article (and turn it into a TV commercial). It's just a rapid-fire listing of everything wrong with Kerry.

Welcome to FreeRepublic.com, Space Moose! Good article. Thanks.

He testified before Congress, and elsewhere, that he was in Cambodia on
Christmas Eve 1968, which proved false. He also blamed President Richard
Nixon for sending him there and lying about it, when LBJ was president at
the time.

As Grampa Dave said: "Christmas, 1968: Kerry with his Swift Boat Crew
in Scambodia. Kerry is wearing his CIA hat that came from Richard Nixon
a month before Nixon was sworn in as President."



Kerry is a liar, just like Gunga Dan is! That seems to be a prominent and
common trait amongst LIBERALS.

Just so ya'll will know, I'm ashamed
that Dan Rather is from Texas!

68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub,
could you please direct me to the info that proves bush signed a form 180?

the libs at work keep saying this is a lie and I cannot find confirmation anywhere on the web.

ALl I can find is this in the washington times:

http://www.washingtontimes.com/functions/print.php?StoryID=20040818-121345-3874r

"At the White House, press secretary Scott McClellan said he couldn't say specifically whether Mr. Bush signed Standard Form 180, but the president did request and release his own military records in February.
"I don't believe he signed any form, but he did authorize making his military records available publicly," Mr. McClellan said. "We have released all the records, and reporters were allowed to look at his medical records as well."
