JOHN KERRY will be only the third Catholic in U.S. history to be nominated for the Presidency by a major party. The other two were Al Smith in 1928, who lost to Herbert Hoover, and John F. Kennedy in 1960, who defeated Richard Nixon. I asked Kerry if sewing up the nomination has any special meaning for him as a Catholic, and he said: “Historically, yes; substantively, no. I subscribe completely to the speech Kennedy made in Houston in 1960 and believe completely in the separation of church and state.” Kennedy’s speech made to the Greater Houston Ministerial Association on...

We Will Beat Bush - Archives The "Mother" of All House Parties The East Bay for Kerry/MoveOn House party on December 7th combined the forces of two grass-roots organizations based in San Francisco East Bay Area. We had 200 guests eating, drinking, and watching the MoveOn Documentary “Uncovered” featuring Joseph Wilson and Rand Beers from the Kerry campaign.When Teresa Heinz-Kerry arrived, she handed me a pin that read in the center: “Asses of Evil” with “Bush”, “Cheney”, “Rumsfeld” and “Ashcroft” surrounding it. She met, greeted and talked to a jam-packed room of Kerry supporters and others who came for...

After spending a long day protesting in New York City, I thought that I would share my experiences with fellow FREepers who unfortunately could not be there. I was thrilled with the turn out, and I was equally appalled with some of the comments I received from people when I was walking around with my Benedict Kerry sign. One woman told me how stupid my sign was and how stupid I was to carry it. Why am I stupid...because you don't want to face the facts that your precious John Kerry is a liar and a traitor? I had another...

NEW YORK - Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry (news - web sites) said radio stations are within their right to pull Howard Stern off the air if they object to the shock jock's racy show. "Howard Stern does have the right to say whatever he wants anywhere, but he doesn't necessarily have the right to say it on that station if the people who run the station don't want him to," Kerry said while campaigning in New York, where Stern's show is broadcast. A questioner at the town hall meeting in Brooklyn asked Kerry to stand up for Stern's right...

While most of the establishment media continue their relentless assault on President Bush's military service and keep ignoring rival Sen. John Kerry's mansion-size closet of skeletons, NBC News is finally reporting at least on Kerry's scandal of special interests. NewsMax today acquired a transcript of Monday's broadcast of "NBC Nightly News," which is creating a buzz among those who have seen it. Reporter Lisa Myers, following up on charges brought by rival candidates John Edwards and Howard Dean, noted that "Kerry now brags about standing up to special interests, he actually has sat down with many of them, inviting a...

EDITORIAL Military One-Upmanship February 13, 2004 Now that the White House has released a copy of a Jan. 6, 1973, dental exam with a chart of President Bush's teeth when he was at the Dannelly Field Air National Guard base in Alabama, it must come as a relief to dentists ? and other Americans ? to learn that Bush was taking good care of his choppers as a young man. This is the so-called best that the still-young presidential race is offering. The White House desperately tries to rebut Democratic charges that the president failed to fulfill his service in...

White House releases Bush's National Guard records Effort to quell election-year controversy WASHINGTON — The White House, facing election-year questions about President Bush’s military service, released pay records and other information Tuesday that it said supports Bush’s assertion that he fulfilled his duty as a member of the Air National Guard during the Vietnam war. The material included annual retirement point summaries and pay records to show that Bush served. “When you serve, you are paid for that service. These documents outline the days on which he was paid. That means he served. And these documents also show he met...

The reporters are belligerently denying the validity of the President's records that now show his service. One mentioned an evaluation where the comment, "He was not observed at this unit" is made by the 2 deceased superior officers. NOT OBSERVED AT THIS UNIT means that his duty performance was not observed for the purpose of evaluation. It doesn't mean that he wasn't there!

"""And so a New Soldier has returned to America, to a nation torn apart by the killing we were asked to do. But, unlike veterans of other wars and some of this one, the New Soldier does not accept the old myths. We will not quickly join those who march on Veterans' Day waving small flags, calling to memory those who died for the "greater glory of the United States." We will not accept the rhetoric. We will not readily join the American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars---in fact, we will find it hard to join anything at...

"Last time I threw some military medals over the White House fence. This time I might as well push the whole thing down." "Little one, you like Bush? You need an excorcist" "Eating meat is so unhealthy." "Sorry, kid, you gotta pay taxes like everybody else." "How strange. A deck with all Jokers." "Why hasn't the 3-d movie started yet?" "Too bright! Those military medals are too shiny! Must throw away!" "Guess what else I can do at the same time!"

Sen. John Kerry and his media boosters are hoping bogus allegations that President Bush went AWOL from the National Guard will catapult him into the White House - but during the 1992 presidential campaign, Kerry angrily denounced Bush's father for raising Bill Clinton's Vietnam draft record. In fact, back then, Kerry called those who wanted to make Vietnam service an issue "cowardly." "I'm here personally to express my anger, as a veteran," Kerry told National Public Radio two months before the 1992 election, "that a president who would stand before this nation in his inaugural address and promise to put...
