Kerry's past voting record may hurt him

How does this guy have absolutely any credibility left?


"In the stump speech he delivers virtually every day, Sen. John Kerry stirs the Democratic faithful by railing against trade practices and slamming President Bush?s policies on education, civil liberties and Iraq.

But what the Democratic front-runner does not mention is how he, as senator, supported the president on all four issues, helping cement in law what he often describes as flawed government policies."

What libs?

And, btw, Rip, those "charges" were responded to over FOUR MONTHS AGO. It must be hard for you type what with all that sneezing you're doing from shaking the dust off of those old articles you keep dredging up.
 
Damn Rip, THREE seperate threads about Kerry's voting record today?!? We're going to need to cut you off as you've clearly surpassed the limit.

:roll:

I have a response.
#1 Kerry is a Senator, Bush is the President
#2 As a result, Kerry would be classified under the Legislative branch and Bush under the Executive
#3 I believe that Kerry supported, NOT BUSH, but rather the legislative pieces that were passed
#4 It was Bush's job to act on those promises and Kerry is criticizing how Bush went about implementing the laws.

" Kerry faults the president on the ?implementation? of the laws governing education, trade, civil liberties and the military operation in Iraq. Kerry complains Bush underfunded the No Child Left Behind education law; abused the search and seizure powers of the USA Patriot Act; rushed to war once granted congressional authorization and failed to crack down on abuses by U.S. trading partners.

?This is the biggest say-one-thing-do-another administration in the modern history of our country,? Kerry said. He stood by his votes, but blasted Bush for the way he implemented the new laws."

Fin.

I don't really understand Rip what you don't understand about conjur's statement.

So where are the responses to the charges?

Did you check out the researchers at factcheck.org?

I like this one:

Seth Goldman
Researcher, Annenberg Political Fact Check

Seth Goldman earned his B.A. in political communication at George Washington University. He joined the Annenberg Public Policy Center in June, 2004 with previous experience as journalist, press relations assistant, and media researcher. He has worked at the Committee for a Democratic Majority and at Sen. Edward M. Kennedy's campaign committee. At GWU he founded and edited Sticks & Stones, an independent, student-run progressive newsmagazine.

Ah, a former Ted Kennedy staffer. I'm sure he's unbiased!

Brooks Jackson
Director, Annenberg Political Fact Check

Brooks Jackson is a journalist who covered Washington and national politics for 32 years, reporting in turn for The Associated Press, the Wall Street Journal and CNN. At CNN he pioneered the "adwatch" and "factcheck" form of stories debunking false and misleading political statements starting with the Presidential election of 1992. His investigative reporting for The AP and the Journal won several national awards. He is the author of two books: Honest Graft: Big Money and the American Political Process (Knopf, 1988) and Broken Promise: Why the Federal Election Commission Failed (Twentieth Century Fund: 1990).

Worked for news organizations that YOU quote from all the time.
 
This would mean that everything you have quoted from a journalistic item means nothing because they bash someone else in one way or another?
 
Go read the articles at http://www.factcheck.org to save yourself from embarrassing yourself further.

They criticize both campaigns.

Then do some research (which you seem to be so adept at doing - but only at right-wing sites) at the other two links provided for you.
 
When your barameter is centered at Hannity, Coulter and Savage, everything looks and smells liberal. There is no argueing with people that just attack the messenger and ignore the message. These forums would be great if it were not ruined by extremist who just call names and ignore facts.
 
Interestingly enough, the Bush campaign has been harping on Kerry's voting record for months now. During that time Bush's popularity has been dropping. Seems to me Kerry's voting record is not as harmful as many had hoped.
