AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted October 1, 2004 Which is worse? Interesting rhetorical strategy by Kerry there. Very good rhetoric from Kerry. Agreed. Unfortunately, Kerry is completely not answering the current question. -=Mike I will agree with you here. Neither man is actually answering the questions.

Guest MikeSC Report post Posted October 1, 2004 WHY was that absurd, Bush? Give examples, SPECIFIC examples. Oh and POLAND is really helping in the War on Terror. Hey, Russia poses NO threat to Poland... Nevermind, different debate. This is going VERY badly for Kerry. -=Mike I wouldn't go quite that far. I don't think it's any sort of trouncing at all. Just referring to the discussion on the coalition. -=Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr. Tyler; Captain America 0 Report post Posted October 1, 2004 Actually, it seems pretty even so far. And Bush framing Iraq as "Us vs. Saddam Loyalists" is STUPID STUPID STUPID. Everyone in the world knows it's al Qaida killing our troops in Iraq. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Everyone in the world knows it's al Qaida killing our troops in Iraq. He was trying to say that Baathists were the early opponents. But, you're right --- he said it VERY poorly. -=Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest BDC Report post Posted October 1, 2004 Kerry, you just pulled that Bush would have still gone in, but you've said in the past that YOU would have gone in too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MikeSC Report post Posted October 1, 2004 Umm, Kerry just totally contradicted himself. -=Mike I didn't catch it, what did he say? Griped that Bush said he'd do the same thing, knowing what we know now and that he (Kerry) wouldn't. Kerry, in August, specifically said he'd do the exact same thing, knowing what we know now. -=Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
