Kerry's senate record IS NOT "left of liberal". FACTS.

[LynnTheDem]

In fact, he's barely "left of center". Unless CHENEY is "left of liberal" as well, because the areas of Kerry's record that Cheney attacks are the points where Kerry & Cheney VOTED THE SAME DIRECTION.

The problem with progressives; we too often assume people DON'T LIE and actually KNOW what they're talking about, so the rightwingnuttery LIE and say Kerry is a raging liberal.

NO HE IS NOT.

He's not even in the Top 10; neither is Edwards.

DON'T let the rightwingnuttery get away with their LIES!


Next rightwingnuttery lie; Kerry's done nothing in the Senate. EXCUSE ME???!!
