He did say he wasnt going to raise taxes

He has said a lot of things; truth is, he voted to raise taxes IIRC 92 times. He said he wouldn't raise taxes on those that makes under 200k/year. That means my parents, small business owners, WILL have increased taxes. This means they won't hire as many people and can't expand their business as fast as they have the past four years... see where I'm going with this?

Also, if he doesn't raise taxes, and only cuts 30bil from defense, how is he going to lower the deficit AND increase social programs by 200+ billion... his positions sound GREAT on paper, but money is limited and doesn't just show up out of nowhere.

If Kerry would just admit that he was going to raise taxes, I might like him a little better for at least being honest. Last night was ridiculous. He was asked point blank if he supported abortion. His reply; "I'm catholic, and I have beliefs, but I don't want to infringe my beliefs on others through legislation." ... so, does that mean you support abortion or oppose it? He can't answer a direct question with a direct answer.

As for being funny looking, I'm still waiting for his face to simply slide off his skull...
