Bush Opens a Double-Digit Lead!
| Fri, 09-03-2004 - 3:46pm |
New York: For the first time since the Presidential race became a two person contest last spring, there is a clear leader, the latest TIME poll shows. If the 2004 election for President were held today, 52% of likely voters surveyed would vote for President George W. Bush, 41% would vote for Democratic nominee John Kerry, and 3% would vote for Ralph Nader, according to a new TIME poll conducted from Aug. 31 to Sept. 2. Poll results are available on TIME.com and will appear in the upcoming issue of TIME magazine, on newsstands Monday, Sept. 6.

< Perhaps you forgot that when CEO's, CFO's, COO's, step down it is quite common for their buyout package to run for a few years, so the company does not have to come up with the package in one lump sum.>
Hillary must be loving life to see the most "electable" Democrat candidate go down in flames so magnificently this year, clearing the field for her in 2008.
<<-- President Nixon, of course, did not assume office until January of 1969. >>
Yes. I pointed that out and explained that Nixon could still have been making statements about the war and about Cambodia. You don't address that at all. Nixon wouldn't need to "act as President" to merely talk to the press. Are you with me? I also conceed that Kerry may be blurring events together - there was apparently a firefight near the Cambodian border in the early hours of Christmas Eve morning, and then in January and Febuary he ran some missions dropping off special ops in Cambodia.

You mean Kerry didn't jot down US secrets in his diary?!? He didn't carry on his person documents which clearly outlined illegal US military activity? Boy, he sure wasn't thinking ahead to running for President in 2004. Maybe he should have been a little less concerned with safeguarding military secrets in a warzone, and more concerned with his future political career.

SInce O'Neill clearly says that crossing into Cambodia is an offense punishable by court marshal, was he trying to turn himself in when he told President Nixon, at the White House, that "I was in Cambodia"? If only Nixon were paranoid to taperecord all of his conversations, we might know it this claim is true of false. If only...

Of course it's possible that since Kerry was a rising young Navy star, a Yale graduate, and had a TOP SECRET SECURITY CLEARANCE that he was involved in some missions which O'Neill might not be privy too. And I bet that would really, really bother O'Neill. (here's a link to Kerry's Top Secret Clearance http://www.johnkerry.com/about/john_kerry/military_records.html )
"'A cocky feeling of invincibility accompanied us up the Long Tau shipping channel because we hadn't been shot at yet"
...he's talking about himself and the new crew of the PCF-44 as a group. His purple heart was awarded while he was with a smaller crew on a different boat (a "skimmer" called "batman") He's talking about their feeling of invincibility as a group. He's also trying to be a bit poetic about it, which seems to confuse alot of people looking for dirt.
To read this as some sort of legal statement about whether Kerry himself had never been shot at is absurd.
Anyone coming forward about this story says that they were NEVER in Cambodia. Steve Gardner who served as Kerry's foregunner said he was never in Cambodia, and he served on Kerry's boat longer than anyone else during Kerry's time as commander.
Who knows what his reasons were at the time that he did this, as he had to know that eventually the truth would come out, and it could not be coming out at a worse time for him, especially since he is the one that keeps bringing up Vietnam.
Well, there's no doubt he was in the service and he fought in Viet Nam.
How about the Fact that the guy sitting in the oval office today Lied about completing his service in the National Guard. This scandal needs to be very, very thoroughly investigated, because if he continues to Lie about it - it is an impeachable offense. Impeach Bush!
