WHY doesn't Kerry simply use the Bush 41 State of the Union Speech to debunk these claims against his voting record?!?! No freeper in the world can refute the words of Bush Sr. himself on national television!!! Let me give you an example of the ammo we can use from that speech:

After completing 20 planes for which we have begun procurement, we will shut down production of the B-2 bomber. We will cancel the ICBM program. We will cease production of new warheads for our sea-based missiles. We will stop all production of the peacekeeper missile. And we will not purchase any more advanced cruise missiles.

MY GOD!!! Here we are letting Freepers claim that Kerry voted against the B-2 Bomber and BUSH HIMSELF announced his administration is doing so..PROUDLY! And ZigZag mentioned the MX missle in the Tweety interview did he not?! LOOK at the other missle Bush had on the chopping block! But it gets EVEN BETTER...

The Secretary of defense recommended these cuts after consultation with the joint chiefs of staff. And I make them with confidence. But do not misunderstand me: The reductions I have approved will save us an additional $50 billion over the next five years. By 1997 we will have cut defense by 30 percent since I took office.

GUESS WHO THE SECRETARY OF DEFENSE WAS THAT RECOMMENDED THESE CUTS?! DICK CHENEY!!! So here we have Bush Sr, saying he is making cuts recommended by DICK CHENEY in CONFIDENCE..cuts which will amount to a 30% cut in defense by 1997!!!!!!

If anyone has video of the Bush 92 State of the Union I sure would like to use it!!!
