Anyone else catch Kerry on the Letterman show?

[Joe Chalupa]

Kerry's "top 10 Bush tax proposals" were:

10. No estate tax for families with at least two U.S. presidents.

9. W-2 Form is now Dubya-2 Form.

8. Under the simplified tax code, your refund cheque goes directly to Halliburton.

7. The reduced earned income tax credit is so unfair, it just makes me want to tear out my lustrous, finely groomed hair.

6. Attorney General (John) Ashcroft gets to write off the entire U.S. Cons ution.

5. Texas Rangers can take a business loss for trading Sammy Sosa.

4. Eliminate all income taxes; just ask Teresa (Heinz Kerry) to cover the whole damn thing.

3. Cheney can claim Bush as a dependent.

2. Hundred-dollar penalty if you pronounce it "nuclear" instead of "nucular."

1. George W. Bush gets a deduction for mortgaging our entire future.

Besides reading his "Top 10" list, Kerry also poked fun at the tedious debate negotiations between the rival campaigns that ended in agreement Monday. Kerry said he wanted running mate John Edwards to stand in the vice presidential debate, but Cheney wanted to sit. "We compromised and now George Bush is going to sit on Cheney's lap," he said.



This is meant to be funny people. No harm intended.

When do equal-time provisions kick in?

Oooohhh..it's that damn liberal media again.

IMO, Kerry definitely a strong showing, and he got a very positive reaction from the crowd.
Honestly, I think this is what he needs to do more. Get on more television shows and just get his face out there. The television news media covers so little of Kerry's actual message that people complain they don't know what he's about.

Unfortunately the majority of Americans get their news from the idiot box. So the more he shows up on it and just speaks his mind, the more he'll convince people that he's a good candidate.
