Has anybody seen this?I was in total shock!It was a shock to see how much of a trader our president really is!Not to mention a liar & a cheat!I am so disgusted in him!I cant believe that some ppl have the nerve to say that democrats are always up to their dirty tricks! Ha! Those of you that think that really need to rent the video Fahrenheit 9/11.Sad that I had to wait for it to come out on video because the REPUBLICANS did not want the truth to be known in the theaters!God help this world!Because our politicians aren't!

Uhm, but do you read stuff that is balanced too? I told what news sources I get information from and what shows I watch dealing with news and politics. I know I don't watch Fox news. I watch MSNBC, CNN, Daily Show and Tough Crowd. How do you know we don't read stuff that isn't challenged? I read lots of stuff (many of it thanks to this board) before I made up my mind for voting for President. I'm for Kerry mainly because of seperation of Church and State (how it should be!), enviornment, education, economy, health care and pro-choice. What has Bush done for the enviornment, the religion issue(and this is not a Christian country), health care, pro-choice? All those women who did women rights are getting a slap in the face now with Bush and all his banning abortion. Yes, safety is an issue and the Iraq problem, but I'm more worried about HERE and what is Bush going to do for ME as a citizen of the United States. I want to be sure I have a job when I get out of college in 2-4 years. Instead of bringing up 9/11 all the time or attacking Kerry, why doesn't he try bringing up the other issues? Instead of saying "I know it's hard work" or "he has a record, he can't be trusted" why doesn't he get to his point and state what his place is on issues that matter? Why doesn't he know that people here in the United States aren't all Christians and deserve to have better choices in dealing with abortion and gay rights, etc.

"Uhm, but do you read stuff that is balanced too? "

Um, yes. As I have already stated.

"I want to be sure I have a job when I get out of college in 2-4 years."

I'm sorry, but not even John Kerry can guarantee you that. If you think he can, you will doubtless be sorely disappointed if he is elected.

I don't know who said Bush can guarantee *anyone* a job. I never heard anyone say that myself. But anyone who puts that much blind faith in ANY candidate has their head in the clouds (or someplace else I can't mention here with so many young'uns about).

Thank you for your excellent analysis of Michael Moore's movie. It is full of deception and deceit. The worst part of the movie is saying that the Iraqi people did not suffer under Saddam. My husband served in the Gulf and was in Kuwait. The dead bodies and the brutality of this monster are horrendous. The rape camps which should have the feminists up in arms seems not to bother them. There is a double standard going on and people had better wake up.

John Kerry might have been in Viet Nam but he lied about his service. He was never in Cambodia on Christmas Eve, he wrote his parents a letter stating he dreamed of sugarplums dancing in his head. When the swift boat in front of Kerry was blown out of the water Kerry fled and Rasmussen fell out. He ran away. The incedent about the 5 Vietnamese in the boat a mother, father, and children was not true the gunner saw a father and a son. Thinking the americans were going to fire the father drew a gun, the boy stepped in the line of fire and the gunner shot him in self defense. There is a book John Kerry wrote The New Soldier that Kerry does not want anyone to see. It is all there. Kerry wrote it. Remember this is all about trust, can you trust Kerry?

When you pass a taxcut that you claim will create 5 million jobs, that's close enough.

Who would have thought these people would pocket their cash and not hire more?

Apparently he didn't run very far. He was still there first to pull Rasmussen out of the water. So your account of that incident is very biased, leaving out the part about coming back to get him, & getting to him before any of the other boats that didn't run away. I don't mind hearing your point of view, but reading something that biased is a waste of my time & it shows you are not being reasonable.

I don't think she saw the movie.

During the VietNam war the movie M*A*S*H came out. It was antiwar in a very different way than Farenheit 9/11 is. M*A*S*H was very funny too, along with sad of course.

People who supported that war spoke out against the M*A*S*H movie without seeing it. But they say Iraq & VietNam are different.

Exactly. They were being shot at and wasn't he under water and tried to make it back to them? Nobody was going over to him but Kerry took a chance and went for him and they pulled him up into the boat. Try watching the movie "Going UpRiver" (thekerrymovie.com) where Rasmussen is talking about it. Even on a special feature on Kerry's website has him talking about Kerry saving his life.
