WHY IS BUSH ATTACKING CHENEY'S RECORD?

In the last debate, Bush vehemently attacking Kerry for voting to tax Social Security. But ... he's attacking the very things that Dick Cheney also voted for!

In 1983, Cheney voted for the Social Security Amendments of 1983. The legislation taxed Social Security benefits, increased taxes for those who are self-employed and increased Social Security payroll taxes. [1983 CQ Almanac p. 219; vote #43, 18-H; HR 1900; tax descriptions from the 1983 Congressional Quarterly Almanac]

Wouldn't it help if the man Bush felt was qualified to run the country in his stead didn't have the record he declares is unfit to run the country?

Cheney is unfit to serve as president, in emergency, due to his voting record
Kerry is fit to serve as president, due to voting record

Why, oh why, didn't Kerry point this out in the debates??

Everyone is being unfair to George the Younger. He doesn't know anything other than what Cheney and Karl Rove have told him. Obviously they've been hiding Cheney's secret liberal past.

Note all: The two options are NOT analogous!

1. Cheney is UNFIT
2. Kerry IS fit

Given Bush's statement, on eof these (by formal rules of logic) has to be true.

Either Cheney AND Kerry are unfit (for the stipulated reason) or both *are* fit (if the allegation is the sole criteria).

Sorry, should have made those options more clear.

A vote against Cheney is a vote against Kerry.

A vote for Keryr is a vote for Cheney.

Again, only in regards to the Bush allegation.

I wouldn't be suprised if he started blaming everything on the people around him. He needs good reasons for why he's a faliure so why not blame it on someone else and make it easier on himself.
