Democratic 2004 primary Debate in Greenville SC Jan 29, 2004

Q: How will you get all of those manufacturing jobs back?

A: I will be a president who's on the side of workers in this country to provide the American worker with a fair playing field, to provide the American worker with a fair shot to be able to compete. Because that's not what they have today. We need a president who's going to fight for trade that's fair. We need a president who's going to close the loopholes of these corporations that have a reward to take the jobs overseas.

Let me make an ovservation or two...

1) Are are not going to be a manufacturing nation forever... some of these jobs are gone and will stay gone and it is up to the loosers of those jobs to go get equipped to operate in the 21st century! What did the buggy-whip makers do?

2) Diddlng laws to create jobs by attempting to juggle fair trade will blow up in our faces. "Fair" in fair trade means JUST THAT.

3) The President does not provide jobs... Jobs are provided by BUSINESS operating in an ENVIRONMENT that enables them to grow and expand... You know, don't tax me to death, let me invest... You know, make jobs nad new products!

4) Overseas jobs won't last forever... They make our products cheaper which is what the consumer wants. If the jobs come back it will be because a) Americans do better at it and b) there is a profit motive.

5) Mr. Bush is right... Enable our people to learn new skills, encourage them to drop the dumb jobs and go for the better ones.

From Mr. Kerry's midnight ride after the convention...

"Worst of all, George Bush misled America when he took us to war in Iraq."

That last line shows his flipping and flooping and position taking to support whatever position he needs at the time.

That specific quote comes from the mouth of the Democratic leadership and I mean Howard Dean/Al Gore/Michael Moore wing of the Democratic party.

Kerry had largely abandoned the "Bush-lied" line of attack since early August. John Edwards's explicit rejection, last year, of the notion that Bush lied to get us into war makes this ticket look a little funny. There is NO CONSISTENCY... I do not know what they stand for!

Let's listen to John Edwards from an October interview with motor-mouth Chris Matthews... And John being a lawyer, we can certainly trust him, right??


"So did I get misled? No. I didn't get misled," Edwards said on Hardball with Chris Matthews on October 13, 2003. The junior senator from North Carolina seemed to place much of the blame on the intelligence community. "I serve on the Senate Intelligence Committee," he said. "So it wasn't just the Bush administration. I sat in meeting after meeting after meeting where we were told about the presence of weapons of mass destruction. There is clearly a disconnect between what we were told and what, in fact, we found there."

Edwards's rhetoric supported the governments position... and the previous governments findings... And those of Russia, England and others.

Mr. Kerry is misleading the American public into thinking he could ever be one tenth the leader Mr. Bush is, could ever represent those of us in the middle class, and that he is a honest man.

Mr. Kerry... Your Goose is cooked!

It is almost inconceivable for me to understand why humans would do to the Russian children what they did? These people are worse than animals and deserve the ultimate fate...Now!

Afer watching the CNN clips, I was proud of the Russian people and espeically the Russian forces and their emergency reponders. Brave souls who in grief moved to save the lives of the children in spite of the danger to themselves. They looked like Americans! Pround of their country... Brave in the face of absolute danger... And caring or one another whether they were acquaintances of not.

Underneath all the hatred and biases it sure appears as though most people are decent human beings. Those people of Russia were brave and proud and now mourning this tragedy along with a lot of Americans and others in the free world.

If I hear him again stay Bush lost the jobs in his first four years I am going to puke little green donuts! Does Mr. Kerry know we are at war and the sneak attack did our economy in... Did that moron expect the job level to stay the same in the wake of the 9/11 disaster?


Kerry ought be ashamed.

But our President gets the last laugh. Read it and weep Lurch:

Sept. 3 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. employers added 144,000 workers to payrolls in August, the most since May and the first acceleration in five months, suggesting the economy is emerging from a midyear lull. The unemployment rate fell to 5.4 percent.

The increase follows a revised gain of 73,000 in July that was more than twice the number estimated last month. Manufacturing employment rose 22,000 and the jobless rate declined from 5.5 percent in July.

From Mr. Cheny's speech...

"And so it is time to set the alternatives squarely before the American people.

The President's opponent is an experienced senator. He speaks often of his service in Vietnam, and we honor him for it. But there is also a record of more than three decades since. And on the question of America's role in the world, the differences between Senator Kerry and President Bush are the sharpest, and the stakes for the country are the highest. History has shown that a strong and purposeful America is vital to preserving freedom and keeping us safe yet time and again Senator Kerry has made the wrong call on national security. Senator Kerry began his political career by saying he would like to see our troops deployed "only at the directive of the United Nations." During the 1980s, Senator Kerry opposed Ronald Reagan's major defense initiatives that brought victory in the Cold War. In 1991, when Saddam Hussein occupied Kuwait and stood poised to dominate the Persian Gulf, Senator Kerry voted against Operation Desert Storm.

Even in this post-9/11 period, Senator Kerry doesn't appear to understand how the world has changed. He talks about leading a "more sensitive war on terror," as though Al Qaeda will be impressed with our softer side. He declared at the Democratic Convention that he will forcefully defend America after we have been attacked. My fellow Americans, we have already been attacked, and faced with an enemy who seeks the deadliest of weapons to use against us, we cannot wait for the next attack. We must do everything we can to prevent it and that includes the use of military force.

Senator Kerry denounces American action when other countries don't approve as if the whole object of our foreign policy were to please a few persistent critics. In fact, in the global war on terror, as in Afghanistan and Iraq, President Bush has brought many allies to our side. But as the President has made very clear, there is a difference between leading a coalition of many, and submitting to the objections of a few. George W. Bush will never seek a permission slip to defend the American people.

Senator Kerry also takes a different view when it comes to supporting our military. Although he voted to authorize force against Saddam Hussein, he then decided he was opposed to the war, and voted against funding for our men and women in the field. He voted against body armor, ammunition, fuel, spare parts, armored vehicles, extra pay for hardship duty, and support for military families. Senator Kerry is campaigning for the position of commander in chief. Yet he does not seem to understand the first obligation of a commander in chief and that is to support American troops in combat.

In his years in Washington, John Kerry has been one of a hundred votes in the United States Senate and very fortunately on matters of national security, his views rarely prevailed. But the presidency is an entirely different proposition. A senator can be wrong for 20 years, without consequence to the nation. But a president a president always casts the deciding vote. And in this time of challenge, America needs and America has a president we can count on to get it right.

On Iraq, Senator Kerry has disagreed with many of his fellow Democrats. But Senator Kerry's liveliest disagreement is with himself. His back-and-forth reflects a habit of indecision, and sends a message of confusion. And it is all part of a pattern. He has, in the last several years, been for the No Child Left Behind Act and against it. He has spoken in favor of the North American Free Trade Agreement and against it. He is for the Patriot Act and against it. Senator Kerry says he sees two Americas. It makes the whole thing mutual America sees two John Kerrys."

So Lurch has a midnight rally. Kerry sounded like a desperate man last night, in his speech immediately after the convention was over. Not to mention that he lied:

“The vice president even called me unfit for office last night.”

Where John? Where did Mr. Cheny say you were UNFIT? You could certainly lead the soldiers... But my guess they would not like it because SPIT BALLS don't work real well!

President Bush didn't go for Kerry's jugular but only an hour after Bush finished, there was John Kerry live at a midnight rally in Ohio, going for the throats of Bush and Cheney himself. Midnight in Ohio. I laughed myself silly when he was dropped by every TV and cable channel in Los Angeles!

I watched until everyone cut for... Well, anything else. Lurch was just rambled and he ought take that skinny little finger of his he waves around like a school teach and stick it where the sun don't normally shine.

Several problems with Lurch's "speech"... (Definition: "The faculty or act of expressing or describing thoughts, feelings, or perceptions by the articulation of words.")... Maybe it was not a speech by that definition? Mr. Kerry can't seem to form a sentence unless it runs o forever... In fact, he sounds like Chris Matthews!

First, Cheney never said half the things he was accused of saying. Second, Kerry sounds rattled, and that's just not a very attractive quality in a presidential candidate or a president. I was expecting the Democratic scream at any moment.

I have a feeling it's going to be a long couple of months for John Kerry. It will be funny to watch because eventually the common perosn is going to look under Kerry's rug and see his VOTING RECORD... You know, the thing you do in public office... This man is so flamin' liberal and anti strength and pro-United Nations it makes me puke!

We cannot just walk out of the UN but we sure as hell can pay the same lip service to them as they do to us. And what do I hear from this eleitist left-winger weenie... Lets get Germany and france to help! Those poor buggers can't get out of their own way!

Mr. Kerry, stop attempting to be a camelion

Look at Russia and see what "terrorists" do... Children? Why? These evil bastards who did this crime need to be boiled alive in acid. While Russia has not always been in support of the US... And I mean post cold-war... I sure feel for their leader and how he must feel after the senseless killing of children and those aboard the two airliners.

Mr. Kerry, You are such a weenie!

A 25 year old male was carrying a placard that said "No Draft, No Way" outside the RNC Convention. A reporter interviews him with the following result transcribed for your edification and amusement:


Q: “What are you protesting?”
A: “I'm protesting a war we shouldn't be fighting.”

Q: “Are you protesting the Democrats with that sign?”

A: “No, the Republicans.”

Q: “Are you aware that the Democrats are the only ones proposing a reinstatement of the draft?”

A: “Wasn’t that tongue-in-cheek?”

Q: “No.”

A: “Oh. Well, they just gave me the sign at 14th Street (the demonstration's starting point). I don’t really know what it means.”

Professional protestor with real convictions and a mind... No wonder he s a Democrat!

Twenty years of votes can tell you much more about a man than twenty weeks of campaign rhetoric. Campaign talk tells people who you want them to think you are. How you vote tells people who you really are deep inside.
-- Senator Zell Miller (D-GA)

Senator Kerry says he sees two Americas. And that makes the whole thing mutual — America sees two John Kerrys.
-- Vice-President, Dick Cheney

Never in the history of the world has any soldier sacrificed more for the freedom and liberty of total strangers than the American soldier. And, our soldiers don't just give freedom abroad, they preserve it for us here at home.

For it has been said so truthfully that it is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us the freedom of the press.

It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the agitator, who has given us the freedom to protest.

It is the soldier who salutes the flag, serves beneath the flag, whose coffin is draped by the flag who gives that protester the freedom to abuse and burn that flag.
-- Senator Zell Miller (D-GA)

The man could be good but his mouth does him in! Chris Matthews is incapable of asking a question in one sentance... He tambles on answering the question and finally runs out of air... A moment where his interviewee might get a word in edge-wise.

Probably the most incendiary moment in all of the television coverage of the Republican National Convention was the Chris Matthews "interview" with Senator Zell Miller.

I sat and rooted for Zell thinking finally someone telling this dufus to shut the hell up and let someone answer his "question".

Let me be Zell-like for a minute. Chris Matthews, "Shutthe hell up and listen". Not tat I will put you out of business but for the past six months a see him on TV and the auto-channel-flipper goes into overdrive... And I do NOT care who he is "interviewing" becuase the supposed "interviewee" will not be heard over his rambling.

Shut Up!

Mr. Kerry is destructive to my country. His modern liberal view destroying whatever he can to self perpetuate himself makes my blood boil. In 1971 this person said: "We rationalized destroying villages in order to save them," and "We saw American lose her sense of morality as she accepted very coolly a My Lai and refused to give up the image of American soldiers who hand out chocolate bars and chewing gum. We learned the meaning of free fire zones, shooting anything that moves, and we watched while America placed a cheapness on the lives of Orientals."

Mr. Kerry has never repudiated that testimony including the hearsay about Americans cutting off limbs, randomly shooting at civilians, razing villages in a fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan and more).

John Kerry wants us to believe we are a land of racists; a nation that can accept war crimes; a nation that has long since ceased to hand out candy bars. The man must think his constituents are STUPID. Racists? He has got to be kidding... The man should wake up in Japan or Germany or Sundan or Egypt if you want to talk racists!

Kerry's view of our soldiers are his reveling in images from Abu Ghraib and highlighted accusations of harsh treatment at Guantanamo.

The horse crap around the Patriot Act wildly exaggerated threats to civil liberties at home and then saying we went to war for oil?

Bush administration's vulgar motives for taking the nation to war. As for the good

John Kerry played a leading role in curdling this country's self-image. He doesn't do his Senate job rarely voting to defend the country. I often wonder how a person like this... Self aggrandizing (ie To enlarge or amplify unduly or improperly) individual makes me want to puke.

Joe Lieberman is honorable but beyond him I can't think of another Democrat I could begin to line up behind.

Mr. Kerry, shame shame on you!

Yeah... I stooped to read his writing in USA Today! This guys could not find a fact if it hit him in the baseball cap... Gawd, can't we donate money to get him a proper shave?

He speaks of "liberal issues", let us review...

"Most don't want America to be the world's police officer and prefer peace to war." - AMEN but when 3000 of our citizens are murdered, war might be an answer. I believe i lessons from WWII where the weenies (read France and others) throught they could negotiate with Hitler... They learned.

"They [Republicans] applaud civil rights..." - Damn right we do, civil rights are not for blacks or gays... it is for EVRYBODY you fool!

"[They] believe all Americans should have health insurance" - We believe people out take responsibility for themselves and get health insurance... I do not owe the lazy bastard down the street health insurance because he is too lazy to get a job, go to school and improve himself... that's his choice. We take care of the infirmed, the disabled, but the lazy... that's going too far!

"[They] think assault weapons should be banned" - Who does not? I have guns but I sure do not need an AK47 to protecty myself.

"they usually don't think the government has the right to tell a women what to do with her body" - Right, some of us do not like this plank but we do not have to join the Democrats who appear to be a collection of fringe groups stuck together by lezzies and gays and ultra-liberals... who want to redistribute the wealth.

Sorry my friend... Believe what you want... Ths is a land of opportunity and you MAKE YOUR OPPORTUNITY... the only gift we get is FREEDOM to pursue opportunities! I am tired, no, I am sick of weenie Democrats giving everything away to the undeserving. If you want universal health care, move your happy ass to another country. I can think of France and Germany and Spain as three good places to go!

Mr. Moore... Join the real world and leave Fantasyland for the kids!

Finally, someone from Hollywierd who can speakup.




Rean more about Ron Silver.

I want to thank the President and the Republican Party for holding this event in my hometown, my father's hometown, my grandfather's and great grandfather's birthplace. Just over 1,000 days ago, 2,605 of my neighbors were murdered at the World Trade Center -- men, women and children -- as they began their day on a brilliantly clear New York autumn morning, less than four miles from where I am now standing. We will never forgive. Never forget. Never excuse! At the end of World War II, General Douglas MacArthur, Supreme Allied Commander of the South Pacific, said: "It is my earnest hope - indeed the hope of all mankind - that from this solemn occasion a better world shall emerge out of the blood and carnage of the past, a world found upon faith and understanding, a world dedicated to the dignity of man and the fulfillment of his most cherished wish for freedom, tolerance and justice." The hope he expressed then remains relevant today. We are again engaged in a war that will define the future of humankind. Responding to attacks on our soil, America has led a coalition of countries against extremists who want to destroy our way of life and our values. This is a war we did not seek. This is a war waged against us. This is a war to which we had to respond. History shows that we are not imperialists . . . but we are fighters for freedom and democracy. Even though I am a well-recognized liberal on many issues confronting our society today, I find it ironic that many human rights advocates and outspoken members of my own entertainment community are often on the front lines to protest repression, for which I applaud them but they are usually the first ones to oppose any use of force to take care of these horrors that they catalogue repeatedly. Under the unwavering leadership of President Bush, the cause of freedom and democracy is being advanced by the courageous men and women serving in our Armed Services. The President is doing exactly the right thing. That is why we need this President at this time! I am grateful for the chance to speak tonight to express my support for our Commander-in-Chief, for our brave troops, and for the vital cause which they have undertaken. General Dwight Eisenhower's statement of 60 years ago is true today . . . "United in this determination and with unshakable faith in the cause for which we fight, we will, with God's help, go forward to our greatest victory." Thank you.
