John Kerry closing debate statement for thursday

[counterattack]

My fellow americans you have a clear choice for President and an important decision to make that will effect your life as well as the lives of your children.

You can choose someone who stays the course no matter what even when it happens to be the wrong course, or you can choose someone who as the president and his team says flip flops as most americans do when they determine that the choice they made may be the wrong one as I hope they will do come election day.

Personally I choose to be a flip flopper you see it is easy to stay the wrong course and put soldiers lives in jeopardy when they are not your kids that you are staying the course with. The problem with idiotlogs I mean idealogs (sorry did'nt mean to call you an idiot you know I can chop the english language up like yourself sometimes) is they are willing to push their beliefs on you the american people no matter what even if they determine that their beliefs were incorrect as is the case with Iraq. Yet they risk nothing for themselves not even holding off a tax cut for the rich that is taking this country into a deeper deficit while paying for a war that was waged on the belief of WMD's.

I say to you the american people that any soldier who has actually been to war would tell you that when the bullets are flying over your head it takes more than a belief that you can win, it TAKES A STRATEGY AND THIS ADMINSTRATION HAS NONE YET HE CALLS HIMSELF A WAR TIME PRESIDENT I SAY IT IS TIME TO GET A PRESIDENT THAT ACTUALLY KNOWS WHAT IT TAKES TO WIN A WAR ON TERRORISM WHILE TAKING CARE OF DOMESTIC ISSUES AT HOME AND DON'T MIND FLIP FLOPPING WHEN HE REALIZES THAT HE HAS MADE A MISTAKE BECAUSE WE ARE HUMAN AND TEND TO MAKE THEM. The choice is clear I John Kerry ask you the american people for your support for president and ask your assistance in helping me move this country that I personally fought and bleed for back in the right direction.

My fellow Americans you have a choice. You can vote for a former crackhead and drunk or you can vote for a real warhero that actually FOUGHT in Vietnam.

You could vote for people that avoided war, like 5 deferments Cheyney. Or, you could vote for a guy that shot and killed commies.

The facts are these. Bush is a pampered brat that has NEVER accomplished a thing. He failed to find oil in Texas. He failed when he ran for Congress. He failed when he owned the Rangers. For Christ sakes, he traded away Sammy Sosa. He failed when he was Governor of Texas. Texas went from surpluses to deficits and crime rose even during an era when crime went down nationally.

My fellow Americans, President Bush is a liar. He lied about winning Florida. He didn't. He lied when he said he would create jobs. He hasn't. He lied about WMDs in Iraq. There aren't. He lied when he implied that Al Qaeda and Iraq were link. They're not. And, he's lied about things getting better in Iraq, when in truth, most of the country is controlled by rebels of one ilk or another.

In fact, I'm here to tell you something you don't want to hear. I'm here to tell you that we've become USED to failure and inured from violence. Today, we get giddy when a jobs report says the economy gained 75,000 jobs. During the Clinton era, it averaged more than 200,000. Today, we shrug off reports of dead solders, as they barely are worthy of a mention in the nightly broadcasts. And, we've become innoculated to feeling anything when yet another American is beheaded.

In closing, I say to you the stakes are high. Higher than they've ever been. You have the choice. You have the power. The chioices are clear. You can vote for the crackhead, or you can vote for me - John F Kerry.

KERRY :D

[Doofus1]

And so my fellow Americans, please vote for John McCain, the only true war hero that follows his convictions.

Hey Doofus, I really think the Dems don't want Kerry to win. My thought, let Bush run another term killing our youth, than come with a surprise attack by letting Hillary run. May sound crazy, but think about it.

[5Reasons]

Rightwingers are so obsessed with Hilliary. Please, turn off your RW talk radio and stop repeating their conspriracy ilk. All Democrats are HIGHLY motivated to get rid of this recovering alcoholic. Nevertheless, I'm glad you made your commments, since you have exposed your own political bias. Now I can ignore you when you start yapping about the arena.

BTW - When will the public hearing be for whether I want MY TAX DOLLARS to go to Zany Dodo?

I don't think I ever heard of a hearing being held....

WOW!

[Portugalian]

REally I think Kerry should step back and let his wife run :D

[tomasso]

Kerry is an idiot.

My vote is for Bush!

[5Reasons]

Did you see last night's debate? Bush is an imbecile. If a black person was as stupid as GW Bush, neocons would be crying about 'affirmative action.'

The fact that someone that stupid could become president does, however, prove that this IS the land of opportunity.

Thank you!

If I felt myself leaning a bit toward Bush of recent (I just am not a big fan of Kerry...I LOVE Hilary), last nights debate and the majority of the "closing statements" here conviced me beyond a doubt that there is no way we can afford four more years of incompetance and lying. I am solid Kerry now (again) and I hate to say this, because of the Electoral College, my vote will count more here in PA where the two are running neck and neck. That doesn't mean you shouldn't vote. If enough Kerry supporters in NJ decided not to vote because Kerry is a shoe-in in the state, I don't need to say what the result would be!

The point that you guys made: it is better to change the course, if you made the wrong choice than to stay the course even if you are wrong made me feel a lot better about Kerry. Staying the course in Iraq is killing our children and taking us further into a situation we just don't need to be in. I agree, Kerry has a plan, which is better than Bush's no plan.

Hope you all have a great weekend!
