Kerry: Wrong Then, Wrong Now

Americans for Peace Through Strength has a new ad out. Go. Watch it. Send its address to all the people in your address book. And when you forward the address to folks, include the address of their analysis of Kerry’s Senate voting record: http://www.thestakesarehigh.org/Kerry/

A few highlights:

  • During his 20-year Senate career, John Kerry has voted to cut the Pentagon’s budget 38 times.
  • Kerry has voted 12 times against providing a pay increase to our military men and women.
  • In 2003, Kerry voted against providing $87 billion in funding for our troops in Iraq.
  • In 2002, Kerry voted six times against President Bush’s proposal to establish a Department of Homeland Security in the aftermath of 9/11.

Luke 16:10

Just consider this,

“He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in what is much; and he who is unfaithful in what is least is unfaithful also in much.” Luke 16:10

Now, just hop on over to Football Fans for Truth and consider yet another (of many, many) example of Jean Fraud sKerry puffing his past (lying) to appeal to voters.

The War On Hibiscus

A cautionary tale…

[Blair] Davis heard a knock on the door. He went to answer, but, as the July 29 Houston Chronicle reports, “he hadn’t even gotten his hand on the doorknob when it flew open and he was looking at the barrel of a pistol.”

Davis’ crime? He was growing Texas Star Hibiscus–an ornamental plant with smoothe dark green leaves and decorative white (or red) “star” flowers—in his front yard. Some “concerned citizen” mistook it for marijuana, the cops were too stupid to check and… manhandling, a thorough search of his home (they also found some bamboo and cantaloupes! Shocking!) and intense questioning “What are you planning on doing with the melons!”—the doofs) resulted.

Idiots.

But, in my own experience, more and more typical of LEOs: assume guilt, especially in absence of any evidence.

Sociopathic Tendencies?

Remember this, from Debate #2?
“I went to meet with the members of the Security Council in the week before we voted. I went to New York. I talked to all of them to find out how serious they were about really holding Saddam Hussein accountable.

I came away convinced that, if we worked at it, if we were ready to work and letting Hans Blix do his job and thoroughly go through the inspections, that if push came to shove, they’d be there with us.”–Jean Fraud sKerry

Turns out, he didn’t really meet with “all of them” at all. Apparently, he thought it was Christmas and had to scurry off to Cambodia…
(H.T. Roger Simon for the “sociopathic tendencies” title… )
