Angry Kerry vows to be tough on terroism??

Sen. John Kerry Democrat from Massachusetts says he is strongest
Presidential Candidate on National Defense !
He said Check the Record..

We Did !

Here is what we learned.

He voted to kill the Bradley Fighting Vehicle

He voted to kill the M-1 Abrams Tank

He voted to kill every Aircraft carrier laid down from 1988

He voted to kill the Aegis anti aircraft system

He voted to Kill the F-15 strike eagle

He voted to Kill the Block 60 F-16

He voted to Kill the P-3 Orion upgrade

He voted to Kill the B-1

He voted to Kill the B-2

He voted to Kill the Patriot anti Missile system

He voted to Kill the FA-18

He voted to Kill the B-2

He voted to Kill the F117

He voted to kill every military appropriation for the development and
deployment of every weapons systems since 1988, inc luding a bill for
battle armor for our troops.

It is most likely, with Sen. John Kerry as President and Commander in !
Chief of our Armed Services, that they will cease to function making
it impossible for our country to protect itself


Jo hn Kerry voted to kill all anti-terrorism activities of each and
every agency of the U.S. Government.

He voted to cut the funding of the FBI by 60%,

He voted to cut the funding for the CIA by 80%,

He voted to cut the funding for the NSA by 80%.

THEN, and this is abhorant to almost every American Voter be you
Democrat, Republican or Independent

He voted to increase OUR funding for UN operations by 800% !!

Ask yourself

Is THIS a the person you want as President of these United States
providing for the Common Defense of the Nation and be the Leader of the
Free World ?
>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Voting history can be accessed through Senate voting records

The above is an accurate summary.

We need a strong America !!! Kerry and his wife will be worse than Bill and Hillary!

Been down this road w/Snopes before. Read the article. They don't deny the article in priciple. They deny it in that exact form. They provide zero proof to the contrary.

With the way appropriation bills are created today, I'd like to know what else was in the bill that made him vote against it. There is no black and white with those bills as people put all kinds of unrelated crap into them. For example, in the last appropriations bill, Senator Brownback added a clause that would increase FCC fines. Please tell me how that relates to defense spending?

But Neil:

Don't you realize that complex issues have simple solutions?

(once again, tongue firmly in cheek)

If you tell the same lie often enough and with enough sincerity, it ultimately becomes the truth. Seems American politicians have become quite adept at this.

Do you know how long the report would have been to refute all those simplistic statements? Probably 40-50 pages.

If you do any research on Snopes, you'll find they are non-partisan. Truth is, if you can't trust Snopes, you can't trust anyone.

But if you prefer to believe a totally undocumented chain letter over an independent research entity, I guess that's your right.

Being strong is not to be equated with being wise.

Let's put it this way. If your ultra modern tank is infiltrated by a swarm of angry wasps, that 155 mm cannon ain't gonna do you much good, whereas a swatter and a can of raid might just do the trick....
