Perfect Example

And this is a perfect example of someone who has taken a little time to look at the issues and understand the politics of an election. To believe one side's ads are true and the other's aren't is just naive and ridiculous. It is even more annoying to have someone "rooting" for a candidate who obviously is just parroting the views of someone else. It is far more honest to say I don't like either of them, but would choose one over the other for some valid reason.
I Love You Too! But most of all, I love how politics gets everyone's panties in a wad. No one ever comments on my journal, but until I hit a touchy subject like politics, everyone minds their own business. If Kerry wins, our country is going to hell.
My doctor's ex-husband was a lobbyist and my doctor has met him and his wife. She has had to bump elbows with them MANY times...She says that they're the shittiest people known to mankind! She says he is just a complete womanizing asshole and his wife is a B.I.T.C.H + some more!! She says that if we thought Clinton with Monica was bad...we'd better be prepared for an even better one!

Senator Kerry won both Presidential debates, the Vice-Presidential Debate was a tie. Under Bush... we have lost over a million jobs, we're spending over $100 billion dollars in the war in Iraq (with over 1000 dead soldiers and another 4000+ wounded in combat), the costs of healthcare have risen dramatically (17% I believe, but don't quote me on that)... I can keep going if you'd like, or I can just make the point that in 4 years, he has not helped, nor has he proved he could do any better in the next 4 years. Why oh why would you vote for him? It just doesn't make sense. We can go for a man whose ideas have not worked in 4 years and who has no intention of changing any of those ideas, or make a change with Kerry, who has well thought out and developed plans of action both domestically and in foreign policy. Wow, it doesn't seem like that difficult of a choice to me. Of course, we never really elected Bush in 2000 (he lost the popular vote by over 500,000), so lets cut our losses and hope to repair our economy, and our image around the

Frankly, I don't care what facts you have to throw in my face. Yes, George Bush may have not made the best decisions on some issues, but at least he's not a douchebag like Kerry. John Kerry doesn't even have the decency to leave personal business of his opponents out of the media. That was evident when he made the snide little comment about Dick Cheney's lesbian daughter when asked what he thought about marriage. Oh and what the hell was that comparison he made of George Bush to Tony Soprano?? Who might I add doesn't even exist! Why would anyone in their right mind use that kind of comparison on national television? Much less, it was during one of the most crucial debates of his campaign! Most people are only on Kerry's side because they don't like Bush. What kind of support is that? He doesn't know what the hell he's talking about, and I still fully agree that this country will go to hell if he wins the election.

Haha wow, I don't know who in the world you think those "points" make sense to, but it's sure as hell not me. Ok, so it's ok for Bush to make mistakes as president, but not ok for Kerry to make mistakes in his remarks (might I add, Bush has made a few over the past few years). It's ironic that Kerry was declared the winner of both of the Presidential debates and you have the audacity to say he doesn't know what he's talking about. With 4 more years of Bush, noone* will have healthcare, noone* will have a proper education (thanks to his No Child Left Behind, which he refuses to fund), and the rest of the world will hate us even more, but in a republican mind, thats all ok. I guess you havn't heard of universal healthcare (which ever industrialized democracy in the world has except us), adequate public education, or the idea of interdependence... Wow. Go Bush.
