Flip Flopping to the White House

I received a call last night from a friend of mine. Let's just say this guy doesn't exactly have the most conservative ideals. He is probably one of my only (if the only) Left leaning friends I have.
He called me and wanted to discuss the mocumentary "Fahrenheit 9-11." I told him that as of yet I have not seen the movie for two reasons. One: I do not have time to go see movies, although I would love to have two hours to myself to do nothing but veg out. Two: I REFUSE to give my money to anyone who lambastes and smears another's good name for the sake of their own personal gain.
Gary and I started talking about discrepancies in the movie, that I have heard about and read about. I also started talking to him about how John Kerry & Michael Moore like to say that President Bush took too much time to address the nation after the first attacks on the World Trade Center. Did you know that John Kerry admitted himself that he sat silently, inactive for over 30 minutes between the attack on the Towers and the Pentagon. Interesting.
Kerry also has claimed within the recent weeks that, even knowing what we know now about Saddam & WMD's, and various other issues that we went to Iraq over, he still WOULD have voted FOR the resolution to go to war. But he still voted against the money to support our troops after he helped send them there.
Then there is the latest debacle. Kerry's own campaign website touted that he was the VICE CHAIR of the SENATE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE. That was actually Bob Kerrey, of Nebraska. John Kerry was actually absent for 76-78% of the public hearings for the SIC. (Hardly something that is acceptable for a Vice Chair of a committee). Since Kerry is claiming that his eight years of service on the committee is a qualifying factor for holding the highest office in the land, I would suggest that he might want to show up for the hearings, otherwise I am just as qualified to be the POTUS.
As for making erroneous claims of leadership within high ranking Senate Committees, and then taking days to make corrections after you are caught...Probably not such a hot idea.
How can any American, in good conscience, vote for someone who changes their mind so frequently, but does not have the backbone to back up their decisions? Being the MOST liberal voting senator, even ahead of Teddy Kennedy, but pandering to the moderates, the pro-life vote ("I believe life begins at conception, however...), and the anti-war crowd (although it's funny that his newest tag line is "This is John Kerry reporting for duty!") has got to be a hard job to do . No wonder he can't remember who he is, what positions he's held or what experience he has. When you start lying like that all of the time, you are bound to start believing it yourself. You forget what is fact and what is fiction.
I say, stick to the truth, be who you are. Stop pandering. If you are a liberal, pinko commie, be a liberal, pinko commie. If you are a right wing nut job, be a right wing nut job. Have a position, know the facts, stick to it. Even when people don't like what you say, if you know why you believe what you believe, people will listen to your ideas a bit more.
