John Kerry...
Perhaps this is blogging politics (sorry Luke) but to be honest I don't have a clue about politics at all so it doesn't really count. Was perusing the presidential election pages on the BBC and came across some adverts.
One was George Ws side lambasting Kerry for the way he voted...
OK, so there are two things he did. But what I find more shocking (and the same could be said for this country) is that teenagers even need to have abortions and want to have abortions. It's also shocking that the relationship between Parents and teenagers has disintegrated so shockingly and that secrets as large as that are seen as alright to hide (surely we should only hide what presents we are getting for our parents for Christmas from them) Something which I need to think about just as much as everyone else.
Perhaps the advert should have been lambasting ordinary citizens of America (and most of the western world) who need to get their thinking straight?
Another small point is that the candidates between them have spent over 400 million US dollars between them on their campaigns. Yes, 400 million. Perhaps a little excessive...

Kerry voted against parental notification for teenage abortions.
Kerry voted to allow schools to hand out the morning after pill without
parents knowledge.
