Often a lot, i run into people who say "I'd rather have Bush over Kerry." as if kerry is the lesser of the two evils. But my question is this. How can you get much worse than Bush? He stole the 2000 election, he conspired with rumsfield and allowed 9/11 to happen so that he could use "terrorism" as a pretext to invade afghanistan thus starting the whole saddam issue of how he is supporting terrorists and such. Using the whole "weapons of mass destruction" ordeal as justification of invading iraq, stealing their oil, and finishing up what daddy didnt finish. HOW CAN KERRY BE WORSE? If anyone has any evidence of how Kerry is worse than bush, please tell me.

I'll tell you how: by administering the same fucked up capitalist system with a slightly more left looking mask to fool workers, minorities and liberals into thinking they're getting a better deal with him in office. That's the role of the democratic party nowadays, right?

I think that Bush was the stupid imperialist who cheated at the election but Kerry is the smart imperialist who will be elected by the American people.

personally I am not voting in the november elections. The system doesn't work and it is absured to pretend it does.

I am also reminded by a quote from the great Gore Vidal

"Any American who is prepared to run for president should automatically, by definition, be disqualified from ever doing so."

I believe it went "Any person capable of getting into office should automatically be disqualified from ever doing so."

I got that quote from the below website

http://www.quotationspage.com/quotes/Gore_Vidal/

http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/g/gore_vidal.html says the same thing. Where did you get your version of the quote comrade?

when it comes to voting Kerry or Bush, it is just another case of "Pepsi or Coke."

How can anyone say that allowing Bush another term means another four more years of war, when Kerry has the same policy on Iraq and Afghanistan as Bush and the Republican Party.

If I am not mistaken, Kerry actually wants to add another 40,000 Us troops in Iraq to deal with the so-called 'terrorists'!

Hardly a leftist or even liberal platform to run on is it?

Remember that the Democratic Party was the party that started Vietnam, Bay of Pigs, invasion of the Dominican Republic is 1965 and a whole host of other atrocities like Somalia, Kosovo and lets not forget the sanctions and bombings of Iraq under Clinton.

Kerry has his base support in the party from the right-wing, Clintonite, neo-liberal wing called the Democratic Leadership Committee (DLC) which is there to ensure that the party stays on a policy course of militarism, imperialism, free market economics and cuts in social welfare for the American people.

Kerry also complains that the Bush regime is NOT DOING ENOUGH to remove the democratic leftist president of Venezuela, Hugo Chavez.

So voting for Kerry means voting for the same things as what Bush and co. stand for if not worse as Kerry vows to 'intensify' the 'war on terror' and come down even harder on nations which refuse to go along with the Us free trade agenda in the Americas.

how do you say kerrys any thing any ways he changes his mind so often about an issue the only thing you can say for certain is if one day the american people decided that they were for all black people wearing purple dildos on there head kerrys stance on the issue would be for it and if the next day the american people wernt well ether would kerry kerrys running purely on the anti bush mobile hes not running on any issues really but abortionand im will to be 95% of you guys wont vote come election time any ways so why dont we have only the people who are going to vote post there opions and i think i have this quote wrong but same meaning che once said that words not backed by deeds have no meaning so unless you personly have done somthing to back your views like served in one the afgan war or iraq war or somthing like that that would back your own views

i read in the morning star that kerry also delibrately overestimated the number of communist guerillas in phillipines while in some goverment ministry, and therefore the u$ basically went nuts.
