The latest Whispering Campaign smear

[Norquist Nemesis]

:mad: :nuke: :mad :nuke:

Forwarded to me by my dad and several other family members and friends. :mad: I promptly replied to him that he needs to take me off his group email. I'm voting for Kerry.

Note...My dad was not the author, just the blind partisan patsy their using to pass it on to others. And it's working. :(

Here it is... :mad:

Subject: Our future Pres???? Lord save us

I hadn't seen this list printed until today. (So... send it to as many voters as you can!)

He voted to kill the Bradley Fighting Vehicle
He voted to kill the M-1 Abrams Tank
He voted to kill every Aircraft carrier laid down from 1988
He voted to kill the Aegis anti aircraft system
He voted to Kill the F-15 strike eagle
He voted to Kill the Block 60 F-16
He voted to Kill the P-3 Orion upgrade
He voted to Kill the B-1
He voted to Kill the B-2
He voted to Kill the Patriot anti Missile system
He voted to Kill the FA-18
He voted to Kill the B-2
He voted to Kill the F117

In short, he voted to kill every military appropriation for the development and deployment of every weapons systems since 1988 to include the battle armor for our troops. With Kerry as president our Army will l be made up of naked men running around with sticks and clubs.

He also voted to kill all anti terrorism activities of every agency of the U.S. Government and to cut the funding of the FBI by 60%, to cut the funding for the CIA by 80%, and cut the funding for the NSA by 80%. But then he voted to increase OUR funding for U.N operations by 800%!!! Is THIS a President YOU want?

John Kerry actually did each of these things. I checked it on "urban legends" to be sure and was horrified that this person believes that he should be allowed to be President of this Nation. If you feel differently on the subject don't pass this on, otherwise, please pass it on to every voter you know. It's that important.

1. this is so old and has been debunked so many times

In fact I think the reason why the bush crime family has stopped this is because it turns out Cheney was opposed to these things too! no proof yet but I'm sure someone can dig up links about this right now I'm too tired and lazy to do it.

8. Yes, I just didn't have the energy

to do the work for him all over again. It's not going to do any good. I knew right away what the facts and background are but *sigh*

2. My own gentle smear of Republicans and *

Read my post here and keep it kicked, pass it to your republican friends and any teachers you know.

9. Great post! Bookmarked it

for future ammunition. :evilgrin:

3. An easy one, and LOTS of fun to reply to

http://www.snopes.com/politics/kerry/weapons.asp

It's fun to debunk because CHENEY was instrumental in trying to cut funding for those programs.

Have fun replying. I know I do every time!

4. Yes, make sure you hit "REPLY ALL" when you send the snopes link

that's how I got my repub family members to stop sending that crap to me--I'd shoot it down for all their group email list to see.

5. Use the "reply all" option.

That way, everybody that got this lie will get your response. What tickles me the most is the claim that this BS was checked on an urban legends website. Just another lie, and you can prove it.

7. so very dishonest

I noticed that claim about having checked the info on the "urban legends" site, too. Interesting that they didn't give a specific URL, just that "urban legends" site.

Just goes to show that whoever started this email knew exactly what s/he was doing.

10. Thanks! Forwarded to all on the list

with Snopes' comment and "false" right at the front of the message. I posted that it's odd the author says he/she checked Snopes but failed to provide the link...so here it is! BWA HA HA HAAAA!!!

Thanks again!

(He just might remove me from the group per my request after all)

[Ohio Dem]

12. Yep. You might at that.

It's a bad deal, really. Although I don't get any of this shit anymore, I don't get to spread the truth anymore, either. I've decided that it's almost worth the spam to debunk it from time to time.

Oh, well.

6. I heard some of that shyte from a caller on c-span

before I muted it.

11. CSPAN really had the extreme loonies on this morning

from the little that I heard. It's so aggravating to hear the lies that people spew and know that they believe them on face value.

I cancelled my long distance carrier a few months ago and won't waste phone card minutes to be on hold, but I've fired off a few email questions for CSPAN that never seem to get noticed before the guest is gone.
