#1 "God's work", like treason, lying, living in a fantasy world, abusing your station in life, marrying for money...

#2 "Even as a supporter of Roe v. Wade, I am compelled to acknowledge that the language both sides use on this subject can be unfortunately misleading and unconstructive. . . . Everyone is worse off for it," the Massachusetts senator said. And he specializes in prevarication, which, i think, is using facny language to cover your lies?

#3 Kerry said although he was raised Catholic, it wasn't until years after the Vietnam War that he came to a deeper understanding about his faith.

He went to Vietnam? Who knew?

#7 I voted against the Catholic faith until I voted for it....

#8 If he doesn't follow the teachings of his Catholic faith, then why is he still a Catholic? There are Protestant denominations that emphasize individual personal faith.

#9 Because he's "Irish".

#10 and he's hoping for a portion of the Catholic vote...

#11 He's come a long way. I remember when he was "fascinated by rap".
Next week he'll be villifying "the religious right". If there's a sane person still left in America that can't see through this guy's bullshit, I'd be amazed.

#14 This democrap is so despirate for a shot at the oval office, he actually has taken a practicle approach. Too bad he doesn't mean it, and his own party will skin him for this.
Let's never forget he is the guy who left VN and stabbed his Navy friends in the back for his own gain.
Once again, he stabs, but this time he stabs the leftists.

#15 told students in a speech at Pepperdine University that "we can take up God's work as our own.

Kerry spoke at Pepperdine? Must have been Pepperdine's attempt at providing a counter perspective to reason and common sense.

#16 Come you knew this was going to happen. Last time they had a “War Hero” candidate and now they have to run a “Religious” candidate. I think Ann Coulter floated this idea during the 2004 season and it seems to be coming true. The dream of the “religious right” turning into the “religious left” and of course that will lead to a Democratic surge. I doubt very much that if someone is Republican and religious will sudden turn to the Democrats because Kerry has finished his “spiritual journey” (?windsurfing?). More likely these attempts will fall short when candidates talk about their favorite Book of Job in the New Testament (Howling Howard Dean).

#17 "For 12 years I wandered in the wilderness, went through a divorce and struggled with questions about my direction. Then suddenly and movingly, I had a revelation about the connection between the work I was doing as a public servant and my formative teachings. Indeed, the scriptures provided a firmer guide about values applied to life," he said.

He read Miachivelli's The Prince. What - you didn't think he was referring to the Bible, did you?

#19 I'm not sure, but I'd bet Tah-ray-za would object to you referring to it as the "wilderness". She probably has it shaved by midget nubian slave girls. :D

#22 lol - fly...he's prolly referring to the first rich wife he fleeced then divorced. By the way, correctamundo! He's not Irish, and has a Jewish background as well. If voting Mormons moved enmasse to the Masshole, I'm sure he could do that one as well...he's a chameleon. A wooden one...with a Lucky Hat™

#23 Indeed, the scriptures provided a firmer guide about values applied to life,"

OK John, "apply" some of these "values" to life, since you're so keen on the scripure lately:

"Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination." Lev. 18:22

"Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed; for in the image of God made he man." Gen. 9:6

"These six things doth the Lord hate; yea, seven are an abomination unto him: A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood," Prov. 6:16-17

"...they have forsaken me, and have desecrated this place, and have burned incense in it unto other gods, whom neither they nor their fathers have known...and have filled this place with the blood of the innocents." Jer. 19:4

"It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones." Lk. 17:2

So, I take it that you're now gonna vote anti-abortion, anti-homosexuality, anti-sexual predator, eh? Good to have you aboard, John.
