I'm not really anti-Kerry or anything, these are just funny:

"We make jokes about it but the truth is this presidential election really offers us a choice of two well-informed, opposing positions on every issue. OK, they both belong to John Kerry, but they're still there." —Jay Leno

"John Kerry says the 'W' in George W. Bush stands for 'Wrong.' But he still can't explain what John Kerry stands for." —David Letterman

"Please explain to me why John Kerry sounds more dickish telling the truth than Bush sounds when he's lying. How is that possible?" —Jon Stewart

"Last week, Senator Kerry was eight points behind President Bush, today he is three points ahead. Is this the kind of indecision we want in a president?" --Announcer in a mock Bush-Cheney ad, "Late Show With David Letterman"

"Kerry scored many points with voters and pundits by finally putting to rest criticism that he's a flip-flopper. Kerry said, 'I have one position on Iraq: I'm forgainst it." --Amy Pohler, Saturday Night Live's "Weekend Update"

"You see the pictures in the paper today of John Kerry windsurfing? He's at his home in Nantucket this week, doing his favorite thing, windsurfing. Even his hobby depends on which way the wind blows." —Jay Leno

I'll admit that with one week left, I am still a very undecided voter. The joking and name calling about Kerry "flip-flopping" is in poor judgment though. In the debates, Kerry himself addressed it and made very good points. He explained that a person can be certain (as Bush often is), but can be wrong in their certainty. Many of the issues Kerry is accused of "flip-flopping" on he admits to not originally having all the information. He took a position after utilizing all available information at the time. When new information becomes available it is not weak to change your position if necessary, it is intelligent. For someone to stand by their position in light of new, altering information to suggest a change, is not intelligent, it is ignorant and arrogant. As far as Kerry's position on issues, I may or may not agree on all of them, but I do agree with him "flip-flopping."

I'm not against Kerry either. I'm not even for Bush. Go Nader.
