  1. I was going to do the "Uranus" joke but, that would be imature...though funny!

    Didn't Bush talk about going to the moon and Mars again right after all hell broke loose in Iraq and no WMD were being found...a good distraction from the real issues.

    I don't see any reason to spend so much money in going back to the moon and besides, with record deficits under Bush, we Americans can't even come close to affording that right now, i.e., tax cuts, Iraqi war, miscalculation by $133 Billion in Healthcare, etc. This president's incompetencies will hurt all around!

  2. While Bush was out getting drunk and sniffing coke at the age of 27, Kerry was coming back from Vietnam and head of Veterans Against Veitnam, speaking to Congress and getting the attention of Pres. Nixon and other aides.

    He has shown me enough leadership in comparison to the incumbent!

    I think Gen. Clark would have been the best Democratic Candidate. He has a great resume and is an anti-Iraq war voice!

  3. Why I dislike Bush:

    Forced an Iraq war, didn't get enough money or troops

    from abroad, didn't fire Tenet and forgot about Bin Laden.

    Tax cut will do more harm than good.

    Everything is an excuse from 9-11.

    Biggest divider, nationally and internationally.

    Uses faith for judgement, i.e, stem cell, gay marriage, etc.

    Makes the position look dumb by not articulating properly.

    Enviromental sellout for corporate greed/ contributors.

    Got the position for who he is and not what he is.

  4. There's extremism on both sides, the KKK is a Conservative based, Repulican voting organization who happen to be terrorists by striking fear in those who don't fit their specifications of being human...should we call all Republican Conservatives, terrorists and say that they also lack class?

    If you base your argument for one side, at least think it through and be consistent and look within your own party...perhaps in the future, you'll make better decisions!

  5. We cannot afford 4 more years of excuses like:

    The economy's bad...oh, because 9-11.

    We're going to war again with another country...oh, because 9-11.

    We have huge budget deficits...oh, because 9-11.

    But the Saudi's were involved, ...yeah, but they had nothing to do with 9-11, just Iraq and Afganistan???

    The 9-11 excuse has worn thin to a point where they have made it feel like an annoying subject now, and that, in and of itself is a tragedy.

    I know blaming Clinton for everything is the Right's other excuse but, it's time for this president to take responsibility and accountability for what happend under his term...didn't even fire the CIA director, in fact, he praised him! WOW, and you'll call this leadership...

  6. I would like to hear about most of the issues and not just about one.

    This is just another detraction because there is nothing else to talk about under the Bush Regime, at least not positively!

    They want to talk about Bush's leadership during this time, which is strange to me because he never had a plan to finish in Iraq, never was able to get enough money and troops from other countries, he's used up money like it grew on trees, he's an environmental disaster....I just don't see how anyone with a conscious could vote for this clown!

  7. Let's talk about credibility issues:

    - WMD?

    - Mission Accomplished?

    - Greeted as Liberators with flowers and chocolates?

    - Imminent Threat?

    - Saddam and 9-11/Al Qaeda link?

    - Yellow cake from Niger?

    - No new deficits from the wealthy tax cuts?

    - Senior official leak of CIA operative?

    - No child left behind funding?

    - Gay marriage to be left to the state during his campaign?

    - Uniter, not divider?

    - Called remark of war in Middle East as terrorist breeding a "ridiculous notion?"

    - AWOL for a couple of months while Kerry volunteered for Vietnam

    - Cheney and Halliburton ties/ Iraqi loan bidder for high end contracts?

    - No plan for post-war?

    - We pay 90%+ cost of war/ lives and claim to have this huge "coalition of the willing?"

    - Questioned UN credibility for not finding the WMD and now we cannot find?

  8. Thomas Friedman quote:

    "Republicans want to use a hammer for every problem even though every problem is not a nail."

    Today George Bush praised George Tenet after his resignation and was never held accountable or responsible. This administration believed in holding Saddam accountable and responsible, yet they didn't apply that logic across the board. Bush loves to tell us he's Commander-in-Chief, yet he has not held anyone, including himself, responsible for taking us to hell in a handbasket????

    Even more damage to our image abroad from thie administration is that they have been envious of America's hopeful nature, now we have turned hope into fear tactics...paraphrased from T. Friedman.

  9. We come back down to WMD I see. Let's go back and put that logic into perspective anyway.

    We claimed that we were going to for the stock piles that Saddam claimed he no longer had; however, Pyong in N. Korea was letting us know that he could hit California with one of these weapons...and we didn't attack him.

    He even said that he would sell them and we still didn't do anything, is it because there isn't much oil in that region?

    We didn't get rid of torture chambers run by Saddam, we opened them back up, "under new management," quoted by Ted Kennedy.

    Was Iraq like that because of Saddam or Saddam like that because of Iraq. The country has a violent history of overthrowing the govt. and he layed down the law, which almost seems essential in that country, seeing what we're seeing today.

    Black dog,

    You make an excellent observation about people seeing America as a child sees a parent. It's crazy that peope think the U.S. does nothing wrong and it's always the other side...this falls under some type of blind following.

  10. First, Gore is now an absolute nobody. This seems a waste of talent. (It must be absolutely devastating on a personal level.)

    Gore brought it upon himself. He struggled against an inferior minded George W. Bush and he didn't even win his own state of Tennessee. He also goofed by distancing himself from the ol' so popular Bill Clinton.

    This proves to me that he didn't deserve to be anybody...
