A Point That Kerry Should Have Hit * On.
Whenever Kerry points out the lack of inspections for shipping containers, * loves to come back with, well I've increased spending for that by 3 billion dollars. Why doesn't Kerry say; 3 billion for container inspection when were spending 100+ billion on Iraq... what was more important?" It seems like a slam-dunk to me. Same goes for tax cuts to the rich.

1. another point
Instead of Kerry trying to justify the vote before and after for supplemental funding Kerry should have asked WHY WERE THE TROOPS SENT INTO HARMS WAY WITHOUT THE PROPER ARMAMENT IN THE FIRST PLACE????????


George Bush is a MASTERdeBATER

What on earth is his hand doing? Bad hand - bad!

2. One other point - the 30 billion for homeland defense . . .
When bush said that raised the expenditure for homeland defense from 10 billion to 30 billion Kerry should have jump on it by saying - great - you give Iraq 200 billion to protect their country but only allocate 30 billion to protect our country - where are your priorities Mr. Bush????

4. Let's do the math, there's 290 million Americans and 25 million Iraqis
So that's $8 per Iraqi and 10 cents for each American. bush*s priorities favor Iraq by 8000%!!
