I vote Kerry

Yep, it might be how you read my post but I didn't claim anything of that nature, I simply asked a question, one which no one has challenged or answered! Asking what real difference he can make is not the same as saying in no way can he make a difference!

Hmm, that was how I read your earlier post:

To me, it reads like 'Doesn't matter if Kerry gets in anyway, so you may as well bend over for George and look happy about it'.

At one point yes, but they actually joined up earlier this year after a new agreement with the new governing body for Iraq placed US troops in some sort of legal position that would exclude anything that happened in Iraq. It's worth noting, before others jump in, that just about everyone who did sign up had various conditions and exceptions which basically come down to "if we don't want out people in that court then the IWC can go blow itself". Blunt I know, but true.

Flock, if you have to put me down as one - I'll go Kerry. But only by the most miniscule of differences.

Johnson - Bush

He is the dumbest person ever. He said on TV something like ' These terrorists are going round killing needlessly, and so are we'

What?

This guy cracks me up. He's a laughing stock.

Just an another little discussion point for you and correct me if i'm wrong, but weren't the americans the only ones to veto or not sign up for an international war crimes court, meaning their soldiers are immune from prosecution ?

Can I vote?

Kerry.

Well it's not a claim I've made, I just asked if anyone could come up with any pro points for him that weren't of the "he's not Bush" nature.
