Did you get those off of Rush Limbaugh's site? Or President Bush's?
And may the best candidate win. Remember guys don't take it personal. We are all Americans. At-least those of us who defend our great Nation.

We need someone that stands his ground as a President. Even thought Bush has his problems. Mainly verbally
. I think it wouldn't be in the best interest of the U.S to change President at this time.
. I think it wouldn't be in the best interest of the U.S to change President at this time.Is the irony lost on everyone? Here's a president who led his country into a war based on (I'm assuming he's not a bald faced liar) erroneous intell (The Iraqis have WMDs) and erroneous assumptions (Iraq leadership is connected with Osama). And now he says he's the only one who can lead the country *out* of the war?
Ok so I couldn't watch it cause it was on some time in the veeeeery early morning hours...
But at least we got the "highlights"
on CNN.
They both don't give me the impression of being capable to lead a country!
Bush seemed very nervous and he looked like one of those angry lil midgets
Plus what he was saying sounded like he had reeeeeeeaaaally tried to prepare for the debate. But I think some cow, giving birth on his farm, must have distracted him from preparing. 
Kerry really likes using 2 sentences instead of one. And he makes me feel like I had just taken a sleeping pill. Doesn't seem like he has the neccessary power.
But Kerry seemed more confident about what he was saying and he really had some very good points that always knocked Bush out.
At the end I think this is about voting for the lesser evil.

Since you're "too busy" to back up allegations:
Point 2:
Authorization to use force and actually using it are two different things. The authorization was also voted on based on administration promises of a thorough strategy including exit strategy, garnering UN and NATO support, and having a strong coalition (Poland doesn't count). None of those happened.

The speech made it clear that force, if necessary would be managed with the world body and not alone.
The world body did not and does not support this and the US is alone. Alone in the cost. Alone in the risk. Alone in the deaths. That is Bush's war.
