Kerry picks Edwards

[MattTheSkywalker]

Edwards was the biggest ass-kisser at all the debates...you really want a sycophant one bullet away from the White House?

he's well-spoken and telegenic, sure, but it must always be remembered that he made his wealth by using the machinery of government to take it from other peoeple, not through entrepreurship or wealth creation.

Populism is the wrong mentality for leadership.

Kerry is richer than GWB, and Edwards is like 3x richer than GWB.

Something you missed on the news in the past few days? Or were you too busy trying out those rose colored glasses to tune in?

Come again?

I cant wait for the debates. Edwards can acutally talk, not like that boring ass lieberman, that guy put me to sleep.
The thing I like about edwards is he was born low income. So what if he's a rich trial lawyer, he worked his way up, its the american way right? Plus he was sticking it to the HMO's, those cheap bastards will let you die if in a second if they can get away with it.

Add to the mix that there is no way in hell two rich guys are gonna give the "blue collar" workers a tax break at the expense of the rich (them).

Thats my biggest beaf with Dems, is they play the "blue collar" card but never deliver.

Contrary to some (rightwing) opinions, some people put the good of the country before themselves.
Ever think that Kerry and Edwards could have enough money to be comfortable and not try to milk the country for more?

Kerry's is inherited / marriage, so he probably does not think about it very much. Has Kerry ever had a job? (in the private sector)

Edwards - populist - scary. He amassed his fortune through using the machinery of government (not the market) to transfer wealth to himself.

So basically, you have two rich guys running for President who have never earned a dollar though the typical creation of wealth mechanisms of the private sector.

Does that mean anything to you? To me it means they don't understand working to create wealth, and that usually means an administration that countenances things like higher taxes and other redistributive programs.

Makes me want to hide under a desk.
