Kerry sounded authoritative in the first debate, but what is he an athority on? How many bills on the war on terrorism did John Kerry author? How many did he sponsor or co-sponsor. How many homeland security bills or amendments did he author, how many did he sponsor or co-sponsor? How many speeches did he give on the senate floor regarding foreign policy? What significant impact did he have on any foreign policy issues?
Well, I guess he was just saving up all his great ideas for when he ran for president, because I believe the answer to all these questions is zero!
The RNC must expose this fraud for what he is, a windbag with zero accomplishments to back up his ideas.
By the way, the same arguement goes for education and the economy.
We're less than a month out from the election and John Kerry has still managed to avoid talking about his record. Really quite amazing if you ask me.
The Swift Boat Vets are the only ones who are telling the truth about the kind of man Kerry is. Give as much money as you can to them.
He should also sign that 180 and release his medical records. The lying POS.
Why won't John Fraud Kerry sign the SF-180?
I love the Swift Boat Vets. They have been so discredited by the media, Fox included, they have lost much credibility. I wish that wasn't the case.
People are tuning out the Vietnam stuff coming from both sides. I could be wrong.
Absolutely amazing. We need to move beyond the Vietnam stuff. Yes, it's important. But, Kerry's Senate record is crucial. I doubt more than 20% of the electorate know that Kerry has passed fewer than 10 bills in 20 years---and most of those ten bills are ceremonial. All Kerry has done in 20 years is vote "no" to every bill not sponsored by the far left.
He favored cut and run in Vietnam and he would cut and run in Iraq. That is why his Vietnam record is still important.
We need Hillary to come to the rescue pretty darn soon.
George Bush needs to point out to the public the percentage of times Kerry has failed to show for his Intelligence briefings, as well as the number of times Kerry has refused a terror briefing from the WH. The "I just haven't had the time" line comes to mind, so perhaps he was windsurfing rather than interested in the state of the our country.
Bush MUST bring Kerry's record into the open if the moderator wont to it. Ignore the question and attack Kerry's record, it has GOT to come out. Kerry SAYS what he'll do, but the record reflects his true actions.
I even tried to call the RNC this weekend, but found nobody home on the weekends.. stupid move. Bush campaigns on weekend; this weekend would've been the perfect time to highlight Kerry's no-show record, and lack of concern about terror threats inside the US. Kerry no only doesn't get it about Iraq, but he doesn't seem to understand WE do not want this war on our soil again. We have already been attacked, Bin Laden declared war on us, CLINTON did NOTHING about it, and turned down Bin Laden at least 3 times, and it won't be over till we wipe out those that want to kill us. We did not start this, but we'll have to finish it.
Further, to echo other posts here, Bush should ask Kerry to sign the 180.......at least ask the question in the interest of FULL DISCLOSURE AS PROMISED. I'm beginning to believe the rumor that Kerry was dishonorably discharged to avoid charges of treason..

Email them!
My take on this is that Dick Cheney will be covering this in the VP debates. Bush tried to remain "above the fray" the first time and has two opportunities left if it is needed. I think and hope Cheney will cover it quite well.
Done !! :)
Two decades in the U.S. Senate and virtually no significant accomplishments! This, and his far left voting record (the only thing he's consistent on) are Kerry's biggest vulnerabilities. What kind of wake up call does it take to get the Bush campaign to focus on Kerry's dismal record?
I, too, think Dick Cheney will do an excellent job of pointing out the many shortcomings of John Kerry's record. This by itself, however, will not be enough. The President needs to go after Kerry's record aggressively as well. I agree with the points made by JessJane in Post # 11. If the moderator won't go into Kerry's record, then Bush needs to to take the debate in that direction himself. During the first debate, which was supposed to focus on Foreign Policy and Homeland Security, Kerry still managed to get in a couple of comments about "tax cuts for the rich". To Hell with the format. Bush needs to go all-out.
