Tim Russert whores again
Just said Kerry voted against $87B millitary appropriations bill because of politics, not principle. said Clinton and Biden told him too, but because of Dean in primaries he didn't.

I would like to see some evidence for that, you lying fat bastard.

1. We all know why Kerry voted for the war -- false/falsified evidence...
The reason Kerry voted against the $87 billion is because he had offered an amendment that would raise the taxes of the wealthy to pay for the $87 billion, sparing the less-fortunate taxpayers & future taxpayers the heavy burden.

I heard Tim Russert & Tom Brokaw say Kerry's vote for the war but not the $87 billion would be a big issue during the debates. I don't think so. Just how out of touch is the big media?

2. I am sick of the talking points...
Forget about the votes of the politicians. This country can only fight a war with the permission of its citizens, and once you lose that so you lose the war.... I don't care who voted for what...

3. He did the job G.E. pays him to do by parroting RNC talking points --
I'm sure it's a great life, enjoying millions of G.E. dollars, but it must take some kind of toll on a person, inside, to have sold one's soul.

4. Russert: "Integrity is for paupers!"
Russert sold out long ago to the War Party.

If he wasn't a traitor, I'd feel some sympathy.

5. whore that he most assuredly is, think about it......
Kerry was doing less than well at that point, right, depending on when that vote was, which must have been pretty early in the primary process

it does make sense, and when I heard him say it live, I had to agree, given the circumstances

whether or not he's right, who's to know

what IS true, though, is that he voted for the earlier version, which would have forced a tax hit for the richest of the rich, in order to pay for it

I'm pretty sure they, of course, didn't bother to mention that part of it

6. DO THESE LOW LIFE
WHORES know that Bush was against the first $87 billion bill and Kerry voted for it...Bush was against it because it was to be paid by the most wealthy in the country....

Do these scumbag whores know this and are just ignoring it to make Kerry look bag (i.e., they are whores) or are they just stupid?

If Bush brings this issue up during the debate Kerry will easily smack Bush down on this issue...it will be a dead issue after that....
