This vexes me. I am terribly vexed.

Kerry wants to [essentially] raise taxes by $400 billion by repealing Bush's tax cut. Plus, he wants to somehow magically implement a $900 billion national healthcare system -- where is that money going to come from? Taxes, taxes, taxes.
And it's disingenuous for Bush to just say Kerry is raising our taxes. He is removing irresponsible tax breaks on a very small percentage of the population who should have never received them. A large portion of which was stolen from funding that the middle class paid into SS.

The 900 billion for national health care. Not quite that number . And he isn't really even seriously proposing implementing it right now. Plus most of the money needed in taxation to support it would be the money we are paying in premiums and doctor payments right now, so there will be a negligible effect, if any in taxation, for a national health care system. Hell it will most likely end up being cheaper for us. Health care administration alone, as I have said before, accounts for 4% of this nations GDP. Government agencies operate much more cheaper than that. Individuals will be saving money under national health care.

MoveOn that hosted the Hitler/Bush ads is calling out negative ad campaigns. Honestly. Of course those ads were never paid for by a candidate, granted, thats about as negative a picture you could paint of someone. Ah well, Moving On...
MoveOn hosted it unknowingly. Along with several thousand other 30 second spots. An individual, misguided person, posted it. It never won anything and when it was brought to the attention of the MoveOn organizers it was removed.
