need some help with an idea i have RE; No difference between bush/kerry
I'd like to create a fold out business card sized paper that has all the most important points in how kerry differs from bush. I'd like to be able to fit examples of each point.


This would be something we could all print out and carry ten or so in our walled when we run across someone who is "on the fence" because "what's the difference anyway".



so, let's hear some ideas.

environment
jobs
corporate welfare


not sure what else.. i'm not really all that into kerry, i'm just ABB and thought this would be a good idea.

6. Seeing a doctor isn't current?
Edited on Tue Apr-20-04 06:45 PM by sandnsea
Wow. I'd sure like to be able to see a doctor. And live. That'd be nice.

And I'd sure like to have the reconstruction and governance totally turned over to the UN. And I'd like to have real engagement with the ME to get their support in Iraq. And a NATO umbrella. Some sort of plan to fix that country so we can get the fuck out of there.

And I'd like to have somebody who knows fighting terrorism isn't a military war all over the world. Or creating a clash of cultures. Somebody who works with other nations and puts the entire world in one mindset when it comes to getting terrorim to stop and changing the oppressive regimes, including Saudi Arabia, that breeds terrorists in the first place.

And by the way, Sharon's proposal COULD work and that's all Kerry ever said about it. He supports Bush going forward because it COULD work.

The left wing rhetoric is as rigid as the right. In order to resolve problems, people have to be willing to change their positions. No matter who they are. Change never happens if people just stay stuck in their rigid beliefs. No matter what side of the political spectrum they come from.

On edit:

Oh gosh. Mr. 21 posts again. Should have saved my breath.
