Fox: "Bush, Kerry Trade Shots Ahead of Debate"
"In the past four years, in nearly every decision that he's made, President George W. Bush has chosen the powerful and the well-connected over middle-class Americans," Kerry said. "The only people George Bush's policies are working for are the people that he's chosen to help. They're working for drug companies. They're working for HMOs. And they're certainly working for the big oil companies. The results are clear: 1.6 million private sector jobs have been lost. The cost of health care is up 64 percent."



In Colorado, Bush discussed Kerry's record on national defense during his 20 years in the Senate, including the senator's vote opposing the Persian Gulf War in 1991. "He now says he wants a 'global test' before taking action to defend American security. Think about that: a global test. The problem is he can never pass his own test," Bush said. "If driving Saddam Hussein out of Kuwait with the support of the international community does not meet his test, nothing will, and that's dangerous."



Kerry senior adviser, Michael Meehan, told FOX News: "Senator Kerry says we want to move terrorism down to a level where it doesn’t dominate our lives. John Kerry's made clear he will hunt down and kill terrorists."

But Bush-Cheney campaign spokeswoman Nicole Devenish said the Kerry camp is cornered. "The hyperventilating going on on the Kerry side is because of what this quote reveals," Devenish told FOX News, asking hypothetically when Kerry thought terrorism was a nuisance -- when the USS Cole was bombed in 2000, for example, or when the World Trade Center was attacked in 1993? "He (Kerry) does not understand (the War on Terror) now if those are the times he wants to return to," she said.

1. Oh how we see through the Curtain of OZ....please, Kerry
has repeated emphatically he will hunt down the terrorist and kill them. The Bush/Rove/Cheney/Rice/Hughes/McClennan spins just can't hack that they are LIARS. They've lost all their credibility and now they are desperate LIARS. It's time for a new start, Americans are waking up and America will vote Bush out. Never again will there be a President in office who was voted in by the Supreme Court. Bush is his own MISTAKE! He is America's MISTAKE. He can't think of one mistake he made because he IS the MISTAKE!
