Kerry's Positions...

That's very true Rev. There is a distinct difference between Bush & Kerry. They still dressed alike, but the differences showed in their demeanor and policies. One must remember Bush has the ace in the hole... Osama. I keep waiting for him to be traipsed out in front of the electorate. I predicted late September, early October so I was wrong there. Somehow, I keep expecting it to happen.

True Rev but the debate rules that the candidates agreed to set it up that way and if you don't like it you get arrested. I expect Usama to show up on the Zaskar mountains with a cute little bow tie. Even if he doesn't show up in the next 14 days it won't mean much he is one man the resistance will florish PNAC will ensure that.

George Bush isn't a warrior though Godz...he's a coward who got his daddy to keep him out of battle, then proved incapable of even putting in the time required to fulfill that alternate "responsibility." The man is a shirker and a weasel.
Kerry, on the other hand, fulfilled his responsibility to his country to go to war, then came home and fulfilled his personal responsibility to speak out against that war. Those are the actions of a brave man.

Good one, Avro.
I still doubt that Bush has a sure thing. The polls are close, but when things are divided up into the electoral college votes, they do show Kerry ahead. It's not a sure thing either way.
There is also another wild card forming up. There are massive voting drives going on. Some are partisan and some aren't; but they target minorities, single women, and young people. All of those demographics historically go Democrat. Nobody knows how successful the drives will ultimately be, but with the polarisation of the US electorate they could bring in a lot of new voters.

Kerry didn't debate McCain, he debated Bush. Those who live by the sword will die by the sword you can't be the war president and be the peace president at the same time. His incompetence has a legacy that only the ignorant could possibly endorse even his own troops think he blew it. Colonel Douglas Macgregor, PhD.

Our friends in Egypt and Jordan along with our British and Italian Allies watched in disbelief through the summer and fall of 2003 as our strategy of indecision on the ground in Iraq produced inaction against known pockets of resistance on the one hand and, on the other, humiliated, killed or incarcerated thousands of Iraqi Arabs without trial, the vast majority of which were not the enemy. The result was: we nurtured the insurgency.We cannot change the past, so we must confront the present and act decisively or face the possibility that our perceived failure to control Iraq seduces millions of poor, hopeless Arabs from Morocco to the Persian Gulf to join forces with our enemies throughout the Islamic World. Keep in mind that our enemies do not have to defeat us in the conventional sense to achieve their strategic aims now or in the future. They simply have to create conditions similar to those we see today in Iraq on a wider regional level. We must face facts. Saudi Arabia may be reaching the end of its fragile existence. Iran is in a race to develop and field nuclear warheads for its already impressive arsenal of theater ballistic missiles and cruise missiles in the hope that it will be positioned to pick up the pieces if we just leave. A nuclear-armed Pakistan could lurch openly into the Islamist camp on very short notice.
Oh, no, we're not going to have any casualties.

I don't understand why you linked to a teen site Godz, I mean ...are they even eligible to vote?
Zenfisher @ Fri Oct 22, 2004 1:43 am
Yes..but you have to be eighteen to vote. If they are not eighteen they don't vote. They can have an opinion...but it is not a vote. That's why polls list ...likely voters... as a qualifier to results.

What he's doing is taking my words out of context. Just to make things clear, I said,
$1:
There are massive voting drives going on. Some are partisan and some aren't; but they target minorities, single women, and young people. All of those demographics historically go Democrat.
Check the history, Godz. All of those demographics do historically go Democrat.
By young people I also meant 18-25...college-age people who are eligible to vote. They have historically voted Democrat and are the demographic most likely to be against the Iraq war, especially since the rumours of a draft started. Now you can go search out the Young Republicans site if you want, Godz, you can jump up and down and yell and scream too. Hell, you can stand on your head and spin like a top...I really don't give a flying f*** because, no matter how you try to twist words and spin things, you cannot change history.
To paraphrase Avro...Have a hate-filled day, buddy.
