The Case for Kerry

[onthebottom]

1. Kerry will begin trying to find a solution to the mess in Iraq.

2. Kerry will fight a smarter war on terror.

3. Kerry will bring the US back to the international table.

4. Kerry will begin to create a more equitable tax system.

5. Kerry will begin to create a more equitable health system.

6. Kerry will be more likely to enforce corporate regulation.

That's all I can muster right now. Personally, I side with The Economist: between betting on a man whose policies might be incoherent, and a man whose policies have been unquestionably incompetent - well, that's a no brainer, isn't it?

Hey, whoa, not so many details, I was hoping for more meaningless generalities. I hear he'll be nicer to cats too.

How unusually petty, OTB. Why bother asking a question if you won't be satisfied with any answer? Personally, lacking clarvoiant abilities, I can only endorse Kerry based on his platform, the outline of which I've given - I was too lazy to do otherwise - and which is readily available in some detail on the web. As I've said before, Bush is a tax-cut-and-spend conservative. Kerry's plan includes something in the way of moderation:

From the Washington Post
The largest domestic policy initiative by far is Kerry's health insurance package, estimated to cost between $653 billion and $950 billion over 10 years. It would provide coverage for an additional 27 million people and have the federal government take over a share of the most expensive, or "catastrophic," illnesses for businesses.

Bush has committed even more money -- about $990 billion over a decade -- for making permanent the array of tax cuts enacted in 2001 and 2003. His more modest ideas for expanding health coverage through tax credits and personal savings accounts would cover about 2.5 million people at a cost of $90 billion.

Under Bush we will continue to see a deficit balloon with no discernable benefit returning to the people who are financing this debt. Committing so much money to tax-cuts while the government remains in debt is plain folly. Kerry's plan is moderately priced - especially once the most unnecessary of Bush's tax-cuts are repealed - and would enact real, though modest, change within a system that needs it. That Kerry will manage the international stage more adroitly goes, I hope, without saying.

Oh, and don't think I didn't notice that you managed to side-step the fact that your favourite magazine has endorsed Kerry. Could your rather unusual expression of disdain be a defense-mechanism against the creeping realisation that your conscience won't forgive you for voting Bush?

OK that was a joke OTB. HAHAHA!

Seriously though here is what you are looking for and it comes from a source you trust and is very close to your conservative heart, so you can now see the light as you vote for the next President of the USA John F. Kerry:

..the case for Kerry is simple, his Grandfather was not a money launderer for Hitler, he does not use smear campaigns to win, he is not a religious nut, he is not a compulsive liar. In fact if you pick up a book by Al Martin called " The Conspirators", the Bush family is one of the biggest crime families in the US. They had a big part in the huge fraud called " The Savings and Loan" crisis back in the 80's, especially Neil Bush.

Case for Kerry

Kerry promised to stop the Toronto garbage going to Michigan.

Kerry promised to stop Hollywood’s practice of filming movies in Toronto.

Kerry promised to go back to the table and re-negotiate NAFTA.

Kerry promised to give tax penalties to corporations who own foreign subsidiaries and send jobs out of the US to countries like Canada.

Go Kerry!

Oh, and I almost forgot, Kerry wants our cheap precription drugs.
