286. conyers is forced to work with Kerry cause the guy won't go away...
...and they are in the same party. You really think Conyers would've ROLLED OVER for the neocons had it been HIS PRESIDENCY that they steamrolled??? I don't think so.
We certainly know that if the roles had been reversed that John Kerry wouldn't have stood with Conyers on January 6th, 2005 and demanded a halt to the electoral college....John Kerry already was scheduled for a "john kerry day" on January 6th....not a 'defend the republic' day.

you say: "I would guess you didn't major in history or US Government. And that you never accessed the congressional record available to the public or the National Security Archives." no...but I know a QUITTER when I see one. and you're not going to change my mind or the minds of millions of others by getting us to dust off some congressional records in hopes that erases the painful vision of JOHN KERRY handing over the keys to the White House like the gutless coward he was.....yeah, john kerry did plenty of righteous, liberal things in the Senate.

But when it was time for his PROFILE IN COURAGE....he FAILED US ALL.
HE FAILED US ALL.
which was even more galling considering his mantra in the campaign was some bullshit line about "every vote counted".....
as much as it sucks....the reich wing got that much right -> Kerry = Flip-Flopper.

whoda thunk? we couldn't count on Kerry to do what he said he'd do when we voted for him.
he didn't even get himself elected and he broke campaign promises.....jeez

great points. i'm not saying that Kerry is part of Bushco. he ran a pretty decent campaign and convinced alot of people about the intrinsic EVIL that Bushco IS. judging from the EXIT POLLS, he convinced MILLIONS OF PEOPLE how evil Bushco is....not that it did any good, but he was convincing.

Kerry has ABSOLUTELY NO STANDING with myself, or countless others who saw the Election Fraud of 2004 for what it was and Kerry's lame response (i.e. SURRENDER) for what it was.

Great....big John Kerry is more liberal than Bill Clinton. Congrats you've made your point.

Kerry is more liberal than Bill Clinton.

Bill Clinton became President likely because he wasn't A QUITTER.
Bubba was the 'comeback' kid.....Kerry is none of those things.
Kerry is 'brokeback' when it comes to standing & fighting for democracy....

he should have known that he was committing POLITICAL SUICIDE the moment he SURRENDERED to the neocons.

i guess John John will have to find out the hard way.....he has certainly already reached the highest office he ever will hold. he needs to get out of the way for some new blood, new...less gutless blood that is.
