I think he's right on the money on the Kerry issue ... for both of them.

I'm just trying to figure out how John Heinz kept Teresa off camera all those years ...

It's all dependent on whether they are in it or out of it at the time ...

What? So you have some problem with the out-of-mind challenged? We have the right to be as vocal about our insanity as the rest of America does (and is)!

Hello all,sorry,I didn't mean to start such a slobberknocker! I only meant that bush will probably be re-elected due to domestic issues and that the war is not the only issue in this election. I AM a person who "oozes with love and respect" but if YOU had to listen to john kerry and his dead mint broom jockey wife for the past six months see how kind You would feel! (lol) Catwoman,very good post,you have given me some food for thought,although I don't think you fully grasp why many americans feel the way we do about the war in iraq. I live 3 hours drive from new york city and know unless we do something to take out these terrorists and nations that support them it is only a matter of time before a nuke goes off in times square. I am 19 and honestly dont think i'll live to see my 21st birthday. I would probably be in iraq now myself if health problems hadn't kept me out of the military.( I tried to enlist on sept.12,2001.,but was turned down) war is an awful thing that no one wants,but many americans feel we are in this for our very survival. sadly,I think it will happen here no matter what we do,there are just too many of the terrorists out there to stop them all.

Hello all
this is a first for me this tin-ta-net(brit joke) thing can be a very good read when working night, Right off we go!!!!!!
I need to put a arm around bobfromamerica and tell him that its OK everything will be allright, done watch tv for a week and the world is a better place belive me (yes i now i cant spell im dyslexic) and iraq has nothing to do with Terrorists, we had terrorists at one point called the IRA. they bombed manchester my brother and sister where living they at the time, shit happens (as you lot say) dont let it run your life. bush will have you thinking that around every corner some evildoer is waiting! dont go laying down your life because some bloke in a funny hat and grey beard is pissed off, let face it theres no Terrorists breaking down your door bob! and if you think about it bob, the word terror is what they are trying to do, scare you with terror and it sounds like they are wining. your going to live to be a old man bob because the socalled terrorists dont what you they what your goverment.So you have 2 choices Laugh or Cry its up to you. one last thing Catwoman sound a bit of a brainbox if you aks me!!
