John Kerry
- Thread starter wareagle
- Start date
Yeah, we certainly don't want to replace that intellectual giant of a tenant currently leasing 1600 Pennsylvannia Avenue. Kerry will not invade France. We need Bush to tackle that job.

Ed, if this guy gets in, it might be time to give up our practices and get in line for welfare....might make more $$ that way
Well I can''t see how he would out spend the biggest spender we ever had. And if he wants to nip few of those big dudes up in the millions for a extra 5 bucks who cares. They will never miss it. I mean I dont want it to hurt any of them so they moved more jobs out of the country. Or have to take only 5 vacation trips a year instead of 5.5. Just 5 bucks. Like W Buffet said. He needed a 350 million $ tax break like ahole in the head. I mean he didn't turn it down. But I can see what he meant.
I was sent this link from some friends and thought its worth a post...http://www.sophorist.com/archives/000798.html
I got an Idea, let's change the tax rate to 100% for any money made over $100,000. We will use that money and give it to people who make less than $100,000 and bring them up to that amount. That way everyone would "make" $100,000 a year and no one would have any incentive to work hard...
Chanman Read that when Kerry started his running for office. Have done lots of research since then.
Wait till they unveil what this "HERO" was about. Been waiting for them to drop the load.
Was suspicious intially as I was aware from experience of seeing difference in combat of what enlisted men vs officers have to do to receive citations.
Bottom line on my findings he got 3 purple hearts (auto matic out of Viet Nam) and never spent day in hospital. Quite suspicious?
Received Silver Star for going in hootch after it had been riddlle with over 50 rounds of 50 calibur plus small arms--thats a real threat lol---received bronze star for pulling man from water which could have merited award undrer certain circumstances--will give benefit of doubt
However he is not to be singled out as this was status quo among officers over there--as any grunt will tell you.
----and his association with Jane Fonda and other radicals will turn most vets against him once they unload the goods on him.
I expect to see some that served with him to come forward at later date---makes me want to puke when he salutes in these campaigns--wonder why Jane isn't on stage with him

Edward Explain to us how so many politicians have backround as attorneys.:tongue
Coincidence??? I don't think so!!!!!
Evidently qualifications are similiar
.".. the system produces a set of politicians who are mostly lawyers. In 1972, for example, 70 percent of the senators and 51 percent of the representatives were lawyers, but the situation is about the same for earlier times and in most state legislatures. Of 99S elected governors for all states between 1370 and 1950, 46 percent were practicing lawyers. Twenty-five of the 39 American Presidents have been lawyers.
The large percentage of lawyers in the American poliffcal system is highly atypical when compared with other countries, where only 10-30 percent of legislators have a legal background."

lol...its so sad how these people talk....they have no idea how well communism works yet promote it every day
they think anyone who makes anything of themselves should have to pay in increasing amounts while others who achieve less should get a free ride.....its like they are entitled to peoples $$....
it is flat out communism....an idea which 30-40 years ago was warned against and just 20 years ago exposed for ruining a country, taking down its wealth, and turning the citizenry into robots....yet we ahve people that promote it day in and day out.....
i just don't get it.....the American dream is in serious jeopardy with these anti-success people
From Alexander Tyler. No, he wasn't writing about the United States. This quote is well over one hundred years old. Tyler was writing about the fall of the Athenian Republic.
"A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves money from the public treasure. From that moment on the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most money from the public treasury, with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's great civilizations has been two hundred years. These nations have progressed through the following sequence: from bondage to spiritual faith, from spiritual faith to great courage, from courage to liberty, from liberty to abundance, from abundance to selfishness, from selfishness to complacency from complacency to apathy, from apathy to dependency, from dependency back to bondage."

I guess you guys have been missing the swing to commies type government. One big government program after another last 2/3 years. Even one to keep close watch on all of us so we stay in line. It didn' work for the commies and won't work here either. Only diffearnce here is it's a ploy to buy votes. Over in commie land the votes were not needed. I cant believe what the hell is going on in DC. And I see many consevative congressmen are asking the same questions. About time.

uh no, you must have missed the point of what we are saying...you always seem to think that anyone who is conservative agrees 100% with what the current administration is doing...it is this tunnel vision point of view that skews many of your thought processes
StevieD....no Dr. Freeze and co. believe that the middle class should be allowed to increase their wealth free from plunder from the government....the "middle class" shouldn't be held down in the "middle class"....nor shoudl the "lower class"....rather, we should be free to succeed
right now Dr. Freeze is trying to go from nothing to something and the one thing that migth stop me is Taxation taxation taxation.....
Dr. Freeze and friends do not believe that when one profits, everyone else loses....economics is not a zero sum game....obviously you do not have any idea into how businesses work and how the incentive to produce increases the wealth of the nation across the board....you and your communist friends can go to China as far as I am concerned and take your anti-success ideas with you
