Alright here we go.
First of all, there is absolutely no reason for me to believe that Senator Frist did not say those words. I heard this from a good friend of mine who is a Republican and firmly believes in the statement. Why would she lie about that?
If you consider thinking things through before acting, then call Kerry weak by all means. Honestly, the President of the United States isn't supposed to be stubborn and insist on following their first impulses and fail to admit any failure. Kerry is none of those and I would feel comfortable with him in the White House because I would know that he is seriously thinking about all the issues.
I viewed all of the Kerry ads that you provided. I did not see any reference to President Bush as a Nazi or communist or terrible person. What I did see was a review of the facts and the Bush record of lost jobs, a failed strategy in Iraq, and a record deficit. The one ad that I do have a problem with is the whole ad that advocated those wonderful conspiracy theories that liberals have concerning President Bush and Haliburton, etc. Frankly, we need to drop that. Halliburtion's business is designed for Iraqi reconstruction, so of course they received millions of dollars in contracts.
Meanwhile President Bush has shown ads that say that John Kerry has changed positions on everything under the sun, which is an absolute stretch of the truth and missrepresentation of the facts. I remember an ad that was run against John McCain in 2000 that said that he opposed research funding for cancer treatment because he voted against a large spending bill that was over a thousand pages long. President Bush can say that we do not need to internationalize as Senator Kerry suggests. He can say that we do not need to repeal the tax cuts, etc. What we do not need is a ridiculous debate on what John Kerry did twelve years ago when he voted for a thousand page bill.
As a sidenote, Barbara Streisand is not my poster girl. My poster girl is Diane Finstein and Mary Landreiu thank you very much (not sure about their spellings, but their political records are tremendous).
