Good observation. I never could fathom that mindset (i.e., the one that you describe, not the one that you have).

No one knows and it would have been unrelated to Kerry getting elected.

Our military would indeed have been virtually dismantled and we would have been a wide open, soft target for our enemies.

Ah, Now here is an example of what we in civilized society refer to as a lie.

Foaming at the mouth. Now I know why you are regarded the way you are here.

Now that you have proven your abject ignorance of much of the social and political history of your own country, as well as of some of the most influential political figures within it, it is once again clear that you are a textbook leftist who cannot be educated, cannot be corrected, and cannot be reasoned with (and how, pray tell, could I lie about what, in my opinion John Kerry would have done or the policies he would have pursued had he been elected?)

John Kerry almost single handedly, during the now notorious agitprop campaign known as the "Winter Soldier" investigation, concocted many of the now legendary deceptions regarding the conduct of the American military and its soldiers in Vietnam that have sense become the cardinal myths of the media and Hollywood regarding that war. He gave aid and comfort to the enemy (the North Vietnamese Communists) by shilling for their views regarding the war and supporting their "peace plan" for the capitulation and surrender of America and the delivering of South Vietnam into their hands (derived from the two, and possibly three visits Kerry made to Paris while American servicemen were still in Vietnam and the South was fighting for its life in which he met with Madame Nguyen Thi, leader of the Viet Cong terrorist organization and other North Vietnamese leaders. Documents since discovered in U.S. archives (including one discovered just in 2004 (the "circular") show that the Paris Peace Talks were used as a communications like between the Hanoi regime and Kerry's anti-war group, Vietnam Veterans Against the War, and that the North Vietnamese Communists were quite pleased with the activities of Kerry and his group over here).

Kerry's own life of lies, deception, and self serving traitorousness just finially caught up with him in 2004.

Also Tarski, if you can possible handle just a little more truth removed from the interior of your simplistic ideological bubble, take a look at the weapons systems Kerry has voted against and opposed over the last 30 years. The list includes almost everything in the present U.S. inventory. Had Kerry had his way, the U.S. would have quite literally gone into the first Gulf War with Vietnam era equipment.

Coggins I believe that if Kerry had won we probably would still have a congress largely controlled by Republicans. Kerry would be to blame for all the current mess (and really, could it be any messier) and could be the scapegoat for Iraq. I see a couple of positives for Republicans if Kerry had won.


Side note. I met Al Gore right after his bid for presidency when he was a visiting professor at the university I attended. He was a very likeable fellow and wasn't at ALL like he had appeared on tv. I find that I'm quite knee jerky in my reaction to some politicians and I must watch myself that I don't adopt much of the spin whether it comes from the left or right and have to check myself often. What I most took from meeting him was the understanding that these men and women we see in sound bites and public appearances have more than the simple façade that is shown to the public. I think in any election the best we can hope for is the best we're given. Lately the pickings have been slim.

Ya sure. And Clinton had Vince Foster killer too.

What a topsy turvy world you live in--still believing lies concocted by other nut jobs during the last election heh?
You prefer silver spooned failed businessmen combat dodger absentee types to war heros I see.
Nice war by the way. Nice going you guys.


Hey Coggin's why don't you write a few more screens full of nonsense and try to shout down anyone who doesn't fall for your bull? Don't forget to throw out a lot of words like "leftist", "arrogant" "masturbation", "traitor", "commie", "pinko". "godless". Just reach for your library (which no doubt consists of nothing but Ann Coulter books).
Don't forget to reference the New world order conspiracy too.

On second thought, just go dig around for some seer stones in your backyard. Maybe there is one underneath the shack were you keep all your secret anti-black-helicopter amo.

There will be no more discussion with this grossly dishonest intellectual hack. As of yet, he has posted not a single shred of evidence supporting the AGW theory. He has engaged in an endless ad hominem smear against any scientist dissenting from his Sierra Club fantasy of capitalist-greed-destroying-the-planet doom fantasy and has equated them with holocaust deniers. Like the typical intellectual Lenninist he is, as he has not a particle of evidence or any rational argument by which to support his assertions, he falls immediately into personal attacks, special pleading, and ideological breast beating.

He has nothing. Nothing whatsoever but his emotion based political hatreds and troglodyte economic superstitions. Tarski is a poster child for the North American Left in all its anti-intellectual, slogan chanting glory.

Tarski is a very good textbook example of just what we face when we face the true believers in AGW. The anti-rational emotional ferver, the blind ideological conformity to political dogma, The 'us against them" mentality that sees even the most reasonable of skeptics as heretics who must either be made to recant or be relegated to the status of near sub-human evil, the detestation of anything smacking of conservatism (limited government, Judeo/Christian moral values, low taxes, free market economics), and the ever present scent of the desire for control over the lives of others-no matter what the cost.

All very, very textbook.
