I have reviewed Kerry's web page and the bills he has sponsored. It doesn't strike me that Kerry in 19 years of the Senate has been championing the "fight for the little guy"

http://www.factcheck.org/article134.html

But he has made it abundantly clear his pro-abortion stance.
Only to select pro choice judges to the supreme court. First order of business to reverse the Mexico City Policy.

A few of Bush's accomplishments -
Unemployment is at 5.4% lower than 1996.
Economy has grown 4.8% in the last year.
Everyone including Tim received a tax cut.
Lowest 10% bracket no longer pays any income tax.
Eliminated the marriage penalty.
Created Medicare Prescription Drug Benefit - will go in effect 01/2006
Allowed Federal Funding for Faith Based Charities
Funding for the Department of Education up 58% more in George Bush's 4 years than Clinton's eight.
The Percentage Of Children Who Lack Health Insurance Is At The Lowest Level It Have Been Since These Statistics Began Being Compiled.
Home ownership at an all time high

Cry of the Poor

"How can it be that even today there are still people dying of hunger? Condemned to illiteracy? Lacking the most basic medical care? Without a roof over their heads? . . .

"Christians must learn to make their act of faith in Christ by discerning His voice in the cry for help that rises from this world of poverty."
-- Pope John Paul II
Novo Millennio Ineunte, no. 50
