Why Kerry is -still- a better choice than Bush, was Re:[extropy-chat] Fahrenheit 911 - objective review?

[John K Clark]

I'm (reluctantly) voting for Bush but I think all that swift boat criticism
of Kerry is unfair. Take a look at

http://factcheck.org/article.aspx?docID=231

It's interesting that none of the vets who damn him served on his boat,
while all the men who did serve on it, and presumably know him best, defend
him. If Bush is wise he would drop this issue because whatever the truth one
thing is clear, Kerry's war record is certainly more heroic than Bush's.

I'm voting for Bush despite the Weapons of Mass Destruction fiasco because
Kerry, who was on the Senate intelligence committee, was reading the same
reports the president was and also believed they were in Iraq; and if our
intelligence stinks Kerry is as much to blame as anyone, for 20 years he has
been trying to reduce the budget and place more restrictions on the CIA. But
my main reason for disliking Kerry is economic, I disagree with his idea
that the way to become prosperous is to increase taxes, increase regulation,
increase trade barriers ,  and embrace the hyper expensive and ineffective
Kyoto protocols.
