The Edwards and Kerry Liberal Agenda is Out of Touch with America

THE EDWARDS AND KERRY LIBERAL AGENDA IS OUT OF TOUCH WITH AMERICA -- (House of Representatives - July 08, 2004)

(Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)

Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, on Tuesday the most liberal Member of the Senate chose the fourth most liberal Member of the Senate to become his running mate for Presidency of the United States.

It is important for Americans to know the truth about JOHN EDWARDS' liberal voting record that is out of touch with the mainstream values of America. JOHN EDWARDS voted twice against President Bush's tax relief that has lifted the economy and helped create 1.5 million new jobs since August. JOHN EDWARDS voted twice against the new prescription drug benefit added to Medicare that will help seniors live longer at reduced cost. JOHN EDWARDS has voted against banning partial birth abortions. JOHN EDWARDS has said he is against the Defense of Marriage Act. JOHN EDWARDS has voted to cut billions from our military. JOHN EDWARDS has also voted six times against President Bush's plan for the new Department of Homeland Security.

JOHN EDWARDS is the same as JOHN KERRY, a liberal Senator that does not represent the mainstream values of America.

In conclusion, may God bless our troops, and we will never forget September 11.
