I dont think your vote will count anyway:

Diebold anyone..

paper trail ?

Hanging chad most likely..

My confidence in the companies making the voting machines has wanned..  From uncertified patches on machines to just blatant holes on how the machines can be exploited.    Dont take my word for it do some research..

I was in broward country first hand and kicker is that im a republican.. (american party first though) (Think im going change to (I) soon)

And remember if you vote kerry your really voting for bush... or his string pullers.. Yale S&B


My 2 cents

prediction : Bush will win by a landslide... and I hope im wrong I really do..

Soon our elections will be like the middleast:  so and so wins by total of 100%

 If they put up Dean he will not need to cheat to win.

Funked

Anyone who desires political office is probably not the right man for the job.

Your right on that but some are worse then others.


Eagler.
 Is there anything this president could do to make you take of the blinders? He improsoned a US citizen with no trial or charges. That should SCARE the **** out of anyone right or left.

Same question for you Yeager.

What a great attitude!  Now you only have to think once every 8 years instead of every 4!

i don't think bush put anyone in prison - i think it was further down the food chain. mistakes happen- anytime,anyplace, I'm not getting my underwear in a knot about it..

I j think he is the right man for the job considering ANY  of the alternatives our political system has sprewed out over the past 10 years. This country was lucky to have him and his admin at the helm since '00.  IMO

 I thought much like you did.

 I agree there is not much else out there.

 But I think we will be paying the price for Bush being the right man for a long time, and I am really not sure the if the price is fair.


He is really going over board on spending.... that in itself is going to hurt us for a very long time.

[lord dolf vader]

dean seems to be the only one saying yea we are gonna have to raise taxes sorry the other guys are lying.

and main priority is health care.


if he  supports the total dismantaling of the patriot act i would vote for him hell id tote a rifle for him.


i figgure we will have to befor we get rid of this regime. bush is sad sick **** i have said it from the beginning.

[mrblack]

Bush is a good commander and cheif.
But his economic advisors must be drunk.
And this deal with the meskins LOL was he stoned when he dreamed that nightmare up?

[midnight Target]

I'm with Charon. McCain is the best Democrat available.

[Eagler]

if he didn't do exactly what he has done, you think the economy would be where it is at today after the 90's bubble burst & 9/11? sitting at almost 10600. I don't. The spending was justified as were the tax cuts.

Luckily for you you're already there.  SirLoin is from Canada.

Wow so much has been covered allready here's my 3 cents:

Economy

-Bush has bailed out everyone from farmers to airlines in order to keep the business going  I dont particularly agree with that in a free society but it is in the long term good for the economy....BTW its on the up as of late

-the tax cuts are working...a robust economy can not be obtained by increasing taxes.  The deficit will be paid down with increase tax revenues once the economy is fully repaired

-were he fails in this matter is he has spent more money on socail programs than any other repub i know

National Security

-I still support the overal decision to invade Iraq...the world is a better place with out him.  If we continue to show strength other evil dictators will crumble as well......See lybia

-I think the patriot act is totally needed but needs to be closely watched to make sure those powers are not abused

-Dept of Homland security is just another huge govt waist of money.  A collection of govt workers doing the same bad job as befor only with a  new name.

Enron

-I honestly think there were as many democrats involved with this scandle as there were rebuplicans....the CEOs will do jailtime so justice is served

immegration issue

-totally against this latest debacle UNLESS.  was thinking today this may just be good polotics.....think about it,  If this bill goes to congress and gets filbustered around than bush has done two things  1. shown that the democrats could care nothing about minoritys 2. possibly gain the latino vote


I'm not a huge fan of Bush but I will vote for him.  The only other guy I'm even closly likeing for the job is Joe Liberman.  I think he is a good man even if he is a libral but he will never win the primary.  Dean on the other hand is a cry baby who hasnt said one inteligent thing i've heard yet.


These are just my opions and you can say anything you want about them but you probably wont change my mind

[Yeager]

Is there anything this president could do to make you take of the blinders? He improsoned a US citizen with no trial or charges. That should SCARE the **** out of anyone right or left.

Bush could get caught doing something illegal.  Thing is, I do not trust ultra-liberals to tell me the truth.  I do not trust the left leaning media to tell me the truth (Yes, in spite of FoxNews, the vast majority of mass media in the western civilized world still leans clearly left, and in many cases far left, IMO).  I try to get as much information from as many different sources as possible (including MSNBC, CNN, ABC CBS and yes, even the BBC) weigh all the information for believability and make as informed a decision as I can.

That being said: Osama knows about the constitution and I can easily see his organization attempting to recruit US citizens and have operatives gain citizenship for the sole purpose of using constitutional protections to aid them in their designs of harming this nation.  Hell, I think its a no brainer.  The man you refer to has been cleared of any wrong doing and I will not second guess the government in time of war on how it deals with such issues.  It appears to have concluded successfully in that mans case.  He can either accept it or revoke his citizenship and leave the country.

Talk about blinders on?  that is so cliche.  Everyone on this board has blinders on to one extent or another.  Everyone I talk to about politics and national-international matters has some sort of blinders on.  You just have to do as good as you can and hope your right.  Be damned sure about it if you can.  I feel like my informed opinions are correct or I wouldnt hold them.

[Kieran]

I cannot in good conscience vote Dean. I honestly do not believe he would do anything but try to be the anti-Bush, and that is just as bad or worse. His public statements of late illustrate this clearly.

[SFRT - Frenchy]

Hey I'm illegal, and trust me it's not by choice.

I got all my second bachelor in USA with all my pilot licences "made in USA". Alas, to obtain a work visa you need to justify that the job requires a bachelor. Pilot is not recognized as a "high skilled job" and does not require a bachelor, thus no way for me to get my papers. (Even if airlines require a bachelor for their pilots).

I'm working for a construction company, I cannot get my papers either because it is not my "education", I didn't go to school for it and justify "special skills".

So I'm stuck, I had to use the backdoor and get marrired to a girl that is making my life a nightmare and I will have to divorce anyway probably loosing my possessions and still have no paper.

Oh ... and I'm paying my taxes, and my car insurance and all the stuff that a citizen have to do.

I tried everything, for his election Bush said "less green cards/work permit for foreigners". Now he's doing a 180 degree turn (Maybe to win states like California/Florida). Whatever, for me it will be an opportunity to be leagal, and afterall for INS to know where I am, what I'm doing.

About homeland security, when the thing will calm down I can tell you some stuning stories that really make you wonder. I see a lot of tight measures taken, and I see them in action everyday, but in the other hand I see wide open cracks that I don't even have to look for.
