My priorities are different.
This is kerry's 1st 100 Days agenda.
(1) A New National Education Trust Fund
We will propose a National Education Trust Fund to make sure that, for the first time ever, we fully fund our schools so they have the tools to assure our kids can succeed in the 21st century economy. We will make a new deal on education " if Washington is going to mandate something for our schools, then the funding should be mandatory.

BS - every President thinks he/she can do something with education. Leave it to the States to decide, not Federal. Both candidates fail this point. Even
(2) A New Era of National Service
John Kerry will call on Americans of all ages " from students to America"s seniors - to serve in our classrooms, after school programs, nursing homes and nursery schools. We will fight to allow students to earn four years of college tuition in exchange for two years of national service. His plan will require mandatory national service for high school kids and enlist a million Americans in service a year.

I dunno. GW has a track record of no terrorist attacks since 9-11 ... thats pretty good in my book and says whats going on right now is working . Edge - GW
(3) End the "Era of Ashcroft"
John Ashcroft has launched an all-out assault on individual rights, allowing for a wholesale invasion of attorney-client conversations, e-mails and telephone calls. Immediately after the election, John Kerry will name a new Attorney General whose name is not John Ashcroft. We will also fight to protect women"s rights, civil rights and workers rights and enforce anti-trust laws.

Newsflash - they did before Homeland Security too. But that last sentence is Liberal to the core and I despise it. Edge GW
(4) Repeal Bush Assault on the Environment and Make U.S. Energy Independent
We will rollback the George W. Bush assault on clean air and clean water and work to strengthen our nation"s environmental laws. Kerry will also put forward a plan to make the U.S. energy independent of Middle East oil in ten years"and create 500,000 jobs by investing in energy renewable sources, such as ethanol, solar, and wind.

I dunno, another feel good ploy that all Presidents and hopefuls promise and never deliver. I got a feeling Liberals keep us from drilling ANWAR ... so because of that, edge GW
(5) Rejoin the Community of Nations
We will immediately declare the Bush policy of unilateralism over and work to rebuild our shattered alliances all across the globe. We will launch a successful war against terrorism and also restore trust here at home and abroad by making sure that America always tells the whole truth.

Community of Nations ? Screw 'em. I like Isolationism, I also like stepping up to the plate and not being afraid of the pitcher, the pitchers dug out and the hostile away fans - GW did that, he stomped on toes, he did what he said and said what he meant and I'll take that anyday. Edge GW
(6) First Major Legislative Plan: Affordable Health Care
John Kerry"s first major proposal to Congress will be a realistic plan that stops spiraling healthcare costs, covers every child in America, and makes it possible for every American to get the same health care as any Member of Congress.

OMG - another feel good, almost like HillaryCare. Its a pipe dream, not a reality - even
(7) Reward Companies that Create Jobs not Phony Corporate Profit
We will work to reward companies that create jobs by helping with health care costs, a new manufacturing jobs tax credit and new assistance for small businesses. We will also close every single loophole for companies that take jobs offshore and apply new criminal penalties, such as RICO penalties, on companies that defraud their customers and workers.
Lets see, Kerry is going to raise big business taxes - making him enemy #1 for them. But aside from that, I see FEDERAL involvement all over this. Leave the private business sector alone for goodness sake. its bad enough farmers have all but turned into govt employees, lets not escalate this machine any more than the pace its already going at. Edge GW
(8) Create a Middle Class Economy and End the Privileged Class Economy
We will fight to repeal the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans so that we can invest in education and health care. We will also protect middle class tax cuts, such as the child credit and the elimination of the marriage penalty and propose additional tax credits to help middle class families make ends meet.
No. No, no, no,no, no,no, no,no, no. Wealthy people PAY taxes, its their money, let them keep it just like I get to keep mine. Its not fair or sensible to say because you have created a greater wealth than I that I get to keep a tax cut and you don't. And don't be fooled - taxes for everyone WILL GO UP if Kerry is elected. Egde GW
(9) Cut the Deficit in Half in Four Years
We will put forward a budget to restore fiscal sanity, eliminate corporate welfare, and cut the deficit in half in four years. However, we will keep our compact to seniors by securing Medicare and Social Security and protecting our children and veterans.
Blah, blah, blah, blah blah. SS has already failed. Medicare is a disaster. This is to get a few extra old people and veteran votes and nothing new. No, don't believe it, its a lie - Big edge to GW, at least he's FOR privatization of SS
(10) End Influence Peddling and Secret Deals
We will reinstate the five-year ban on lobbying so that government officials - like Bush"s former campaign manager and FEMA director - cannot cash in by peddling influence. We will also shine the light on the secret deals in Washington by requiring every meeting with a lobbyist or any special interest deal inserted into a bill by a lobbyist be made public.
LOL, yeah right. Check his website out ..... even because they ALL DO IT
Bush getting reElected?
