I guess it would only be fair to now ask "How many vacation days has Bush taken?".

Hmmm...more than your average Frenchman it would appear.
Hardly the paragon of the American Work Ethic is our Prez, eh?

Good thing he&#39;s never had a real job, it&#39;d kill him.

The president can do his job almost from anywhere, this arguments irrelevant and is a weak attempt to rationalize missing senate votes he has sworn to cast when elected. There&#39;s no absentee ballots for the senate and his actions are a gross dereliction of duty.


Sorry, I can&#39;t give it a rest. If you or I decided to look for a new job while still employed and just ignored 80 % of our current job we would be fired. Kerry (and most other politicians) feed at the public trough and it&#39;s absolutely wrong to ignore your jobs civil service duty&#39;s you promised your constituents you would perform to the best of your abilities.

Does that mean Bush should have been sacked as Governor of Texas when he was Campaigning? I dont think so.

The same reasoning means he shouldnt stand for President a 2nd term, as he cant do 2 full time jobs at the same time... again, I&#39;d disagree.

Its par for the course for politics.

In an election year, many are campaigning either for themselves or others.


If your running for President, you have to campaign for Primaries followed by the main event.

Im quite sure that he, like the others, would keep upto date with how the numbers are looking for those votes, and would turn up when required.



I dont know how it works in the USA, but its common practice in the UK to find someone that is going to vote the other way and then arrange for both to be absent on the day of the vote...so cancelling each others vote out anyway.

Its an exercise that works for both main Parties, and so neither has ever attempted to stop this unofficial practise.

Kerry Touts &#39;Rolls-Royce&#39;...

So it was a little strange that the campaign picked as its press-pass logo for its Motor City tour the gleaming showcase car of a foreign auto company — Rolls-Royce — that makes cars priced far outside the financial reach of any middle-class voter.

Sam Burwell from Corunna, Mich.,


"That&#39;s an insult to the auto worker, it&#39;s an insult to the American worker, it&#39;s an insult to mainstream America," said Sam Burwell from Corunna, Mich., a third-generation auto worker for General Motors. "It also shows who he&#39;s really in touch with: his European, elitist French friends and not Americans like me. A Rolls-Royce, for cryin&#39; out loud."

For someone pertaining to know what he&#39;s talking about, you&#39;d think that Sam Burwell would know that the French have absolutely nothing to do with Rolls Royce.

Its a British Car, the Brand being owned by BMW, a German Company.

The Largest Single Shareholder (not the owner) of BMW is... General Motors, the company he works for.



Seems like an excuse for Racism, nothing more.

Lets blame the French for everything... d&#39;oh


You do know that the European Car Industry is virtually owned excusively between Ford, General Motors and the Japanese companies dont you?

When you buy a Jaguar (another "Elitist" brand) your actually buying Ford etc...

Its one of the things that make us laugh when they tell you they cant produce more economical engines for your cars.... they do in Europe, they dont even have to develop them, they already have here....and are continuing to improve them all the time.

Here&#39;s what the real war hero&#39;s
think of your war hero

Kerry attended Yale University.
Before graduating in
1966, he tried to defer his draft
status for a year by writing to
his local recruitment board seeking permission
to spend a further
12 months studying in Paris,
according to The Harvard
Crimson newspaper, which had
followed a youthful Mr. Kerry in
Boston as he campaigned for
Congress in 1970.

Kerry postpones his service for a year to study, then goes to win three purple harts.
Bush dodges the draft altogether, then hardly bothers to show up for his guard service.

MY GOD, now I&#39;m sure I&#39;d vote for Bush &#33;

Kerry &#39;Flips Off&#39; Vietnam Vet

Conveniently failing to mention that this &#39;vet&#39; is a paranoid fraud who was harrasing Kerry - to top it of, it&#39;s not even certain the incident ever happened.

Why would their political opinions be any more valid than anyone else&#39;s?

Being a Vietnam vet hardly qualifies one as a political expert does it?

Kerry&#39;s service record is not disputable, unlike Bush&#39;s.
