Owlcroft, if we could elect a regular guy as President that would be great, if we could, it seems that you make more sense than Kerry or Bush. But since we can not elect you, we have to pick one of the Washington insiders here. Let's face it, Bush stole the election, Jim Bakker and the Chenny Gang along with dear old Dad and Brother Jeb floating votes down the river in Florida put brother Geo and Dick in office. Now we have the looting of the government going on for the last 4 years and the complete destruction of America as we know it. We are lucky to even have any free speech left with Ashcroft in power, I would imagine that if these cats get another 4 years we will be no better than the Soviet Union. Right now we do need change before things get a lot worse, no doubt about it, you can not have the rich stealing money from the poor (that is what is happening) and have any sort of security or an economy that gives folks a fair chance to find the so-called American Dream. I know the Bush family has the American Dream, but I am afraid that includes freedom to steal Trillions without getting busted. The truth is, Bush will do anything to get re-elected to keep him and Dick from being investigated and busted. If they lose you can bet they will be looked at.
All of you in California should be aware of the news in this article. Bush and his buddies in Houston nearly drove you all broke in the Enron SCAM, of overcharging Californian's for natural gas. If anything, payback is doublefold, vote against the Houston Oil men. John Edwards is not afraid to tell the truth to the American people, nor am I afraid. ARE YOU? http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&ncid=1963&e=6&u=/ap/20040914/ap_on_el_pr/edwards_3
Important Update Reserve soldiers are locked up and forced to fight in IRAQ, this war must end as we are sending our own men into a war like Vietnam that can not be won. Bush runs from his duty but forces others to fight for Dear Old Dad's Vietnam. http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/nationworld/2002039926_lockdown19.html One way to put an end to this scam war is to vote Bush and his Daddy out of office folks.
Some great and well researched, well thought out points here Owlcroft and AnthonyCEA. Good stuff. Unfortunately I'm not sure how effective reason is. It seems that many voters are driven by ideology. Something to do with the fact that Bush is an evangelical Christian as if that automatically qualifies him to lead the country. Why do you think that people are so religiously into George Bush?
Like the one soldier mentioned, they have no spirit to fight, when you have to lock men up and point guns at their heads to force them to go to Iraq's killing fields you have real problems. We need to force Bush out, that is what needs force, this is nothing more than his fathers failures coming back to haunt this great nation. Down with the Bush family, I have had more than enough of their Bullshit.
I've been keeping track of the vote predictor on http://electoral-vote.com/ It's pretty interesting how the blue states are the ones closest to the rest of the world and the red states are the most sheltered geographically from the rest of the world.
Jebby, thanks for the link, is Jebby male or female? Next, I sure hope your poll is correct, I would sure hate living in America if Bush is elected (or steals another term), I hate the bastards running the show right now.
An interesting observation. At any rate, it's very important to watch that site daily, because shifts of major scope are now coming fast and heavy as the pollsters go into hyperdrive. It's gone from mildly Bush to mildly Kerry to strongly Bush to moderately strong Kerry within a couple of weeks at most. What is especially interesting is the Pentagon closing down the web site that allowed Americans overseas to register online to vote. It is widely believed that the seven million or so Americans overseas would predominantly go for Kerry (whose sister is travelling Europe staging voter-registration rallies). But the Pentagon--our national security source--says it can't keep the site secure. Right. It is very, very hard to say which is the scarier prospect: that they're lying, or that they're telling the truth. . . .
That is just another Jim Bakker, Bush Senior tactic, just like when they got good old Jeb to float the bags of Democratic votes down the river in the last election Owlcroft. Don't forget about the Sheriff's association that kept blacks from the polls by blocking off roads in Florida. The "good old Bush Boy Network" is still in working order, that is why this country is NOT the land of the FREE. We have GOONS running the government, that is why we need to get rid of the Bush family once and for all from American government. The Nixon and Kissinger Gang must be put away. They suck.
on second thoughts, ppul from all over the world should be allowed to vote for the US president .. as he has a huge impact on whats going to happen all over the whole world and which country is going to be attacked next ;-) Maybe a 1:10 value .. 10 non-US votes equals to 1 US vote ..
Then we will get stuck with Kerry if we did that. No thanks, we will vote for our own. Hopefully the military votes don't get blocked like last time.
Debunked even you will be better off under Kerry, you can see that IRAQ is a national disgrace, why do you still support failed policies? The economy is in shambles, the country is Trillions in debt and Bush wants another 3 Trillion that we do NOT HAVE, can you see this light?
I would have thought we could at least have counted on the Republicans to balance a budget once in a while.
In your opinion, Debunked, why do you think Kerry would win if the world voted? Why would the world not vote for Bush? I'm curious as to your thoughts on this.
Because, from this side if the atlantic, all the media portrays Bush as a prat... That's my opinion of the guy anyway... I mean, if you go to a client meeting, to remember their name - I sure as hell do, so why should Bush forget the name of foreign ministers... I mean, come on... my $0.02
If that were Bush's biggest problem SE, I would vote for him, we have life and death issues here for many nations. We need the help of NATO and the UN to solve this IRAQ war, the only thing we can do is send in another 200,000 soldiers or we will lose the war. It is simply a war of trying to hold ground that we are not holding at this time, a royal mess. Plus it will cost Bush his job in the end, you can bet on it. It is really his father's fault if you want a place to put blame.
