The facts are simple. The very positions Kerry puts forward are contradictory. He says, on the one hand, that he is going to put in place policies to create new jobs. Then he states he is going to increase upper-bracket taxes and increase minimum wage, both of which are job killers.
He makes promises for all sorts of government programs, but, apart from the tax raises on upper brackets, he offers little else in ways to pay for those programs. That "tax cut money" certainly isn't going to pay for everything he is proposing.
No government interference in Kerry's health plan? Bush knocked that one out of the park. It might not be in the plans for the government to have too much influence, but socialized programs lead to rationing, which will ultimately lead to heavy government involvement in health care.
His foreign policy plans are all over the place and are hardly even worth the time it would take to analyze them. It's been done already far better than I could ever hope to do.
John Kerry would be a disaster as president. A Kerry presidency will mean fewer jobs, higher taxes, more government influence in our lives, anti-life litmus tests on federal judges, and a host of other problems Americans simply do not want.
As my tag line says, John Kerry is certainly the wrong candidate for the wrong office at the wrong time.
Of course. The mainstream media will never say so. I'm struck at how relaxed and confident President Bush was tonight. Kerry looked like a guy who was in need of sleep. The visual imagery is more striking than the debate and its good to see the President's advisers told him what looked good on TV. The first debate disaster might have been avoided entirely if the President had just been himself. He was himself tonight and I think when it was all over, every one knew he just won his second term.
What do the group of people these networks have in a closed room, say? I think it is MSNBC, or CNBC, have undecideds in a room gather and give there thoughts. After the 2nd debate they had GWB winning.
CBS poll shows Kerry with a pretty big win.
I frankly can't fathom that.
VICTORY! I'm still chewing my fingernails to the bone.
I wish Andrew Mitchell would retire.
BTW: Here in Washington we have a double header. After the Bush debate we have our Gubernatorial debate between Hillary Clone Chris Gregoire and our guy Dino Rossi.
As I said on another thread, I can say how I feel about the debate than Howard Cosell said years ago:
FRAZIER IS DOWN!!! FRAZIER IS DOWN!!! FRAZIER IS DOWN!!!
