Why are we still talking about things happened 35
years ago?  

Thirty five years ago, Kerry may lie in a battle field
and Bush may avoid the draft, stay home drinking... 
Who cares.

The reason we are talking about it, in my opinion, is
because it's good for Bush.  If we don't talk about
Kerry, people will talk about the Iraq war (200
billion dollars, 5,000 casualties - count the wounded
as well), economy (strong or weak depending on who you
ask), jobs (or lack of), deficit (turn the biggest
surplus into a huge deficit in 4 short years),
spending (this administration spends money like no
tomorrow), poverty (poverty rate rose for a third
straight year)...

I have NOT seen ONE (positive) Bush commercial which
talks about his accomplishments.  The ads are either
about Kerry, or about scaring people (a mother doesn't
have to decide which child to pick up first, sick!),
or about Iraq's soccer team...  

Does this man have anything to show?
