Bush or Kerry?
I go to Boston's Craig'slist.com, quite often. I go there almost daily now, because I've taken it upon myself to fight those few there, that regularly post disinformation about Democrats and Kerry. I guess that makes me a Dem because I keep having to back myself up and well, low and behold, I found out that they are a pretty decent party.

Anyway, I ran across one post that may or may not have been by a re puke weasel, but I felt it necessary to rise above the situation, not get mad, and argue my point.

Here it is folks:

There is plenty of evidence on the net and a sliver of Truth in corporate media, to see that the country is in dire straits with Bush as President. Now, wouldn't that alone be enough to get you to vote for a guy that's been in government for about 30 years, has the guts to volunteer his time in a war, and has had experience with foreign relations.

There are good information sources on the net that do report John Kerry's message. Unfortunately the corporate media has chosen not to tell it. You have to look for it on the net at credible news sources. Watch CSPAN. They have shown a number of speeches.

Here's his website: http://www.johnkerry.com

If this isn't enough then just look at what's been going while he has Bush been leader. It's a disaster and most of it was not because of 9-11 alone (He himself publicly acknowledged no connection of 9-11 to Iraq). Most of the current situation has been a result of his inexperience, and determination to find an excuse to invade Iraq. Bush has changed his reasoning for ordering an invasion twice. We are in serious debt from this war, we once had a surplus, he wants to give a insane tax break of 2.4 trillion dollars to the wealthiest while this country is in critical debt, and plans to cut funding for public schools, clinics and yes social security just to pay for the tax cut. These are all things that aid middle and low classes not the rich.

So who does he really work for? Not me that's for sure.

Vote Kerry! He has already stated that he would remove that giant tax cut and remove the last one. That way, especially during the nation building of Iraq (REMEMBER? ) , our unemployed will have some safety net. Kerry will also hold big corporations accountable for outsourcing our jobs. Hopefully he tries to stop monopolization of all corporations. That's the number one issue that is killing this country and starving the poor. We have to stop the insanity.

Anyone that uses an extreme religious point of view to run a country is dangerous. RESEARCH! It's all here on the net.

I know it's hard to believe politicians, especially now, but not believing is also what the bastards want you to do, so that you don't listen to anything the good guys are saying. It's the only way they can win. ANSWER: Just look at the records and educate yourselves on how government works. You should know these things because your paying for it. So research and try to stay away from the media and research for unbiased information. Want to be a patriot... that's how you can start, and then become more involved in the political process. This way you'll know that people like Sean Hannity, Limbaugh, Severin, Dr. Laura and the rest are lying to you daily. They might sound like they know what they are talking about, but they really don't. They do whatever it takes to re-elect Bush.

Be a Patriot and be responsible for your government's actions. Be an American watch dog of government and corporate thieves. There's a bigger war going on and it's here between the corporate America and the working family. Some work for Corporate America but not all.
