Kerry - In His Own Words George W Bush - Flip Flop Flip Flop Flip Flop

Kerry said that he thought it was the right decision to disarm Saddam
Hussein and that he supported the president when he made the decision
and that he supports the fact that Saddam Hussein was disarmed.

Is that clear enough?


But you somehow assumed that I would be looking towards you of all
people for a clear understanding of Kerry's nature. Why?

Which would be the exact opposite of what he says he'll do, and in fact 
is what Bush has essentially done already anyway.


That's why I'm Kerry's friend. Buish's only friends are the super-rich. 

Kerry's going to raise taxes by a couple of percent on people who can 
{*filter*}y well afford to pay them, and lower them for guys like me who, 
without such cuts, have to go without new shoes for five years.

Oh please! Rich people pay a TINY amount of taxes in proportion to what 
they make. TINY.

You are arguing a minor semantic quibble. The United States is by its 
very nature a Democratic Republic. It is a representative democracy. 
Deal with it.

Quite true.  I just read yesterdays paper here, and the stats show that 
those earning around $35k/year pay around 11.2% of their income to 
taxes, while those earning around $200k/year pay around 5.4% of their 
income to taxes.  Of course $3920 from a $35k income hurts more than a 
$10,800 from a $200k income.

Yet you can not only see people, even in csma, talk about how people who
earn more pay a higher percentage, you can see others try to defend it.
Look at the recent reply to the "Day in the life of a Republican" thread
where it was claimed that people lose incentive to work more because their
tax rate goes up and they earn less... this is complete hogwash and based on
a very, very poor understanding of the tax code.  When I pointed out that
error - and others - I was told it was just meant to make a point and not to
be accurate....

Typical Republican claims: meant to make a point but not be accutate.

That is called a lie...

$200 billion in debt and >1000 more dead servicemen (and >7000 injured 
servicemen). I contest your contention...

SH never had the means to attack us, and the weapons being in Syria is 
just a dream of right wing fools. You have yet to show even one bit of 
evidence that it is so. And, after we finally do leave Iraq, who is to 
say the enemy list may yet increase by one again.

Are those right wing fools?  I'd contend that only a leftwing fool would 
think there's no threat.

The real problem tho, is that the dwindling middle class (below 
$40k/year) has to pay the most in taxes.  For those making under $20k / 
year (pensions and the like) still have to pay, tho not as much, but 
makes it even harder to get by on.  The taxes seem to be laid on the 
backs of those that don't make much.  How come someone making only the 
bare minimum of $650/month has to pay any taxes?  They can't even afford 
it as it is.

Exactly... and when people look at the taxes that people pay on their
income, they tend to only count the "income tax" and not the other taxes.
When I have commented on this, folks like ed have shown they do not even get
that concept and jump to the idea of sales taxes.
