Kerry?

Not trying to be a smart ass but why should I vote for Kerry? Please leave
emotional BS and, "It's not Bush", as an answer. What has he accomplished
in 20 years in the senate? I recently retired after 20+ in the AF and I
never saw squat from him supporting the military during that time and I feel
our country is still at war and am afraid all he would do is lead by opinion
polls like another president that thought terrorism is a crime and not a
war.
Thanks,
GMAN

Vote for anyone you want. Your justification in any regard, is
about your personal future needs and goals, and which candidate
will form a cabinet and administration that closely aligns with these.

Perhaps it isn't so much what Kerry has done, but what he will not
do, and that is make all the serious mistakes that Bush has made.
At least Kerry will probably be able to read the intelligence reports
(rather ignoring terrorist warnings), and be able to tell which
country is which on the other side of world (so he wouldn't have
invaded Iraq by mistake), nor will Kerry allow the US people to
suffer in the worst depression in the past 80 years while our jobs
are moving overseas. If you are conservative economically, then
Kerry should be your choice -- Democrats traditionally increase
jobs and decrease the defecit. Liberals like Bush are trying to
spend the country into oblivion and our grandchildren will still
be paying for W's extravagent spending if we don't stop him now.

We're now in the worst depresion since 1924? Things are worse now than
during the Great Depression?

Why is that? Kerry isn't an economic conservative?



Democrats traditionally increase jobs and decrease the defecit.


Traditionally? When has that EVER been true?



Liberals like Bush are trying to
spend the country into oblivion and our grandchildren will still
be paying for W's extravagent spending if we don't stop him now.


So vote for someone more liberal than Bush?

What a truly silly assertion.

while our jobs are moving overseas.

You need to check actual fact: "outsourcing" works both ways, and we
have more pay gained from jobs moved to the U.S. than lost to moving
other jobs offshore.

Great. Now tell that to the people in the midwest where entire
cities are folding up and blowing away due to job loss. Tell
that to the long term unemployeed who have lost thier jobs,
their unemployment has run out, and now have lost their healthcare.
Data out yesterday proves the point that almost 2-million more
people live in poverty today than when W took office. Now tell
me that it is good for the economy.

And it started long before GWB came to be president.

Think Steel mills....
