Myths and Legends about John Kerry: True or False? A compilation! [View All]

Myth: John Kerry is a DLC candidate
Verdict: FALSE, Kerry was seen as far too liberal by the DLC. Joe Lieberman, Howard Dean, and Edwards are present/past members though. Kerry's voting record on issues other than the original IWR vote, is one of the most liberal. Who beats him on the socially liberal scale? Edwards, who also voted for the IWR.... go figure! (EDIT: I forgot the ultra-lib Kucinich... Liberal Master of the Universe... sorry Kucinich backers!)

Myth: If Kerry wins Dean fans will revolt and vote for the World Socialist Candidate, Ralph Nader, Lyndon Larouche, or Hamm.
Verdict: TRUE & FALSE, most will vote for Kerry while some will raise a stink, hopefully it doesn't hand Bush the White House visa vie the 2000 election. We can only hope not!

Myth: John Kerry is a Skull & Bonesman
Verdict: TRUE, yes John Kerry joined a secret society during his junior year at Yale. After running around naked, repeating weird chants, and sitting in a coffin for a few hours... John Kerry announced he had seen George W Bush naked and something must be done to stop a man with such a small... well, you know.

Myth: John Kerry recently had botox injections to prep up his sagging face.
Verdict: TRUE, and good for him. Seriously, would you prefer for him to let his face sag to the floor... or go metrosexual and fix himself up!

Myth: John Kerry's victories in Iowa and NH are part of a largescale conspiracy to hold back "non" establishment candidates.
Verdict: FALSE, the voters have spoken and the picked Kerry because they believed he has the best chance of defeating Bush. That being said, lets see how Feb. 3rd goes.... and hope for record turnout! Yeehaw!

Myth: John Kerry threw fake Vietnam medals over the white house fence.
Verdict: TRUE, but he earned the real medals in the Nam, unlike everyone else except for Clark. And don't you forget it! Dean was busy skiing. Edwards was too young. Kucinich was too young. Lieberman was, well, who the hell knows what Lieberman was doing!

Myth: The Republicans fear John Kerry.
Verdict: FALSE, although they're downright mad at not getting Howard Dean, they can still pin a ton of "NE Liberal" on our Mr. Kerry. But he is a formidable candidate. Put John Kerry on the stage with 100 firefighters from the firefighters union and tell me he's weak. I beg to differ.



NOTE: I'm backing Edwards, but I'll be happy with Kerry. Even though I think Edwards is about to lay the smackdown in Oklahoma, South Carolina and maybe Missouri.
