    Kerry was morally unacceptable.

    I would have supported Sean Penn over John Kerry.

    As to George, sure we don't agree on a lot of things, but I find him preferable to John McCain.

    I mean -- Do we really need federally regulated baseball? Is that some reasonable function of government that I missed in the U.S. Constitution?

    Yes that one I would agree with you on totally ;) I'd however take McCain over GWB any day. I'm just saying from the few prospects I have heard about that 'might' be running he would be the person I would support, but yet again I don't support everything about him. Big government, his stance on immigration are just a few I do not agree with.

    I'm a supporter of the war, not of Bush. Kind of ironic but thats the way it is.

    That's easy to understand.

    The end results of winning this total war will be significantly enhanced freedom for a third of the Earths population. To win the total war, we must win the current campaign in Iraq. Winning that campaign will achieve a process goal of significantly enhanced freedom for the people of Iraq.

    On the other hand, President Bush's support for domestic freedom has been meager. :(

    Totally.

    Actually, one of my qualms with Bush is that he wont drop a pair and start standing up to this left wing attack BS.

    That, and he sucks with border control, wont get his ass in gear on SS, sucks with healthcare (gives to those here illegally for free), gives a half ass candidate the chance at the Supreme Court because he is afraid of opposition, I could go on and on.

    Im finding myself to be more and more Conservative these days. Bush is far from a Conservative.

    I actually do agree with both of you. Again my main problem with the war is not the war itself, it is the timing and how Bush went about getting us into it. Using 'terror and 9/11 to put fear into the uninformed american population'

    Again maybe he did it for all the right reasons, I simply do not agree with how he went about it.

    As far as the left wing goes, I actually in some cases see it refreshing to see Bush being called on many items. Some areas they do go to far, but after 9/11 he was given a free pass, anyone who even tried to call him on anything was labeled unamerican, now though I feel people have woken up and see him for what he realy is.

    That might be so, guess we'll have to see. But since we are already there I still hold on to some hope that we can make it better that it was, but also see how it easily could create something much worse than was already in place.

    Who just won the Nobel Peace Prize? That was a strong message.

    Now you have half the administration getting ready to be indicted. I don't know what it takes to show some people that there is something very drastically wrong with US foriegn policy.
    WHIG - conspirators, psychotic, criminals.

    Nothing in US history is as bad as this. I cannot believe how incredibly much criticism and negative news there is over this. I feel less safe about the world than ever in my life. I do not think that Rice, Bush, Rumsfeld, any of those charlatans, have any sense of morality or duty. They are immature teenagers playing with their GI Joe collection - that is about how capable I see them all.

    The soldiers are getting shafted right left, and center, now it is coming out that the 15,000 dollar re-enlistment bonus got cancelled AFTER the soldiers went for another tour. Hundreds of soldiers still haven't gotten reimbursed for the money they had to pay to get decent body armour. Congress has cut billions of dollars and is shortfunding the medical plans for vets.

    It is unreal how disgustingly ingnorant these people are, they have no class or manners.
    US ignored forecasts of Iraqi ethnic turmoil-CIA
