points well taken- here's my rebuttal:

- when I was criticizing my father's attitude about foreign affairs, I was not attacking his stance on the issues- instead, I was saying that he refuses to believe anything he doesn't want to believe. ie, he refuses to believe that Bush went golfing after sept 11 (per fah. 911); he refuses to entertain the idea that any other course could have been taken by Bush; he listens to pretty much everything oreilly says.

- as far as Kerry goes, I thought that he did give a pretty good plan, including specifics. He DID say that he would be raising taxes for those people with incomes higher than $200000. Furthermore, he explained how he would stimulate growth- by ending outsourcing, tax cuts, and big-business favoritism. Yes, he did try to appeal to the middle class, which is entirely hypocritical, BUT that was the vote he needed to get- I thought that in this case, he said what he needed to say. Bush has NOT in ANY way won back international support... and (if i read correctly in the paper today) the security alerts we've been getting in the past year are years old- - - why? i couldn't tell you! In all, everything Kerry said made sense- the skeleton of a plan is clear, and I for one, am going to take his advice and read more about the specifics online.
