Title: The Lesser of 2 Evils
Post by: midnight Target on April 05, 2004, 04:38:51 PM
Bush or Kerry?

This is the poorest choice for President since ...er ....since ....Polk whupped What's-his-name!

Bush squandered a great big pile of good will and money, Kerry is about as exciting as watching Catholic church bingo.

Frankly I'm torn... go figure.

Actually Cobra, Clinton screwed up the economy.


Bush has been bringing it back.


No offense, but ignore the democrats on this issue.


According to them, the unemployment rate is something like 30.4%.

So ......

Since you have said repeatedly that you "held your nose" and chose Bush, and by your above statement you are saying Kerry is better than Gore...... You are gonna vote Kerry?

Welcome to the new world order. Presidential candidates are all lukewarm buckets of jello. The conservatives drift left. The liberals drift right.

Clowns to the left of me... jokers to the right... here I am... :)

Kerry is a perfect example of the Media running this country.

Frankly he was at the bottom of the list IMO.  Would have picked any of the others first.

Yet the Media saw to it that Kerry is geting the nod.

They win either way.

Think about it.

Ever hear of a post turtle?

While suturing a laceration on the hand of a 70-year-old Massachusetts business Tycoon (whose hand had been caught in a fence while working at his country home), a doctor and the old man were talking about Senator John Kerry possibly being in the White House one day. The old Tycoon said, "Well, ya know, Kerry is a 'post turtle'."

Not knowing what the old man meant, the doctor asked him what a post turtle was. The old man said, "When you're driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a post turtle."

The old man saw a puzzled look on the doctor's face, so he continued to explain, "You know he didn't get there by himself, he doesn't belong there, he can't get anything done while he's up there, and you just want to help the poor stupid idiot to get down.

Lol Rip.


The economy isn't where it should be.  But it's nowhere near as bad as the democrats play it off to be.


However, it will be if Kerry gets in office.  I'm not talking about a subjective opinion here.  Everything kerry wants to do is listed in my economics book as something not to do in a recession.

We have just experienced the biggest quarter of economic growth in the last 20 years.  The unemployment % during Bush's administration averaged no higher than that of the last 4 administrations.

Bush inherited a recession brought on by the biggest tax increase ever levied against the middle class.  This tax increase came about during the Clinton administration.  the NASDAQ declined 40% in one year. What year you ask?  The last year the the Clinton administration held office.

So tell me, how did Bush drop the ball?

Kerry is a moron who will damage the economy beyond any hope of foreseeable relief...Maybe if the government would stop using their illegal unified budgeting system and stop using things like the social security fund to attempt to balance the budget, then there would be a chance of ever finally balancing the budget.

Bush is nothing more then a militaristic figurehead who was satisfying a petty family vendetta...Had Saddam been bothering the US directly for the last decade before we went back in? No. Who cares what he does in his own country - the United States should not need to be the adult in the playground of the world. Let other countries solve their own problems.

Bipartisan politics is evil when both sides have no good ideas or ideas that will even pan out. With Kerry, we go broke in 4 years; with Bush we have potentially another Vietnam on our hands.

Bipartisanism accomplishes nothing. This is why I don't vote for any of these morons.

There is your two cents change. Have a nice day.

I think that G.W. Bush has done a  good job with the WOT and I agree with him that the war in Iraq advances that mission.  But, I only give him a 'C' in domestic policy.  The Taxes cuts were a move in the right direction (it's impossible to have a bad tax cut) but for me, it is very important that the size and role of the Federal Government be reduced and the control of peoples lives be returned to the States.   This is not happening.   The size of the Government is growing along with it's influence in the lives of it's citizens.

But, what am I to do?   Vote for John Kerry?   He doesn't even understand the problem!!!   If it wasn't for the threat of Terrorism I'd be voting Libertarian, but for now  I don't have a real option but to stay with the current Administration.

Bush dropped the ball on gun rights.

Bush dropped the ball on ilegals
 
Bush dropped the ball on perscriptions for the edelerly big time.

Bush spend to much money.

Bush made a mistake, I am starting to think in the war on Iraq.

Bush is to christiany for me, not that being christian is bad, but I do not want my government forcing it down my throat.

Kerry is a know liar.

Kerry keeps making an bellybutton of himself.

Kerry does not seem to think Republicans can ask questions, or that they do not have the same right to question him that any other citizen should have.

I believe Kerry came back from the Vietnam war and decided it would be better for his career to be an anti war guy then a war hero and so he joined a group and sold out to further his career.

He lied in front of the senate and said his fellow vet were murderers and rapists, and then had to admit later, he never saw any of it personaly.

He claimed to have thrown his medals away, yet there they are right on his ofice wall.

He is epitimizes all that is wrong with politicans, he is dihonest, he is two faced, he can not make a real stand, he has no spine, he is slime.

Plus he is a dem so I am sure deep down he wants to take the guns from his subjects.

I do not want national health care, I went over 15 years without it having any and never needed it. We are a nation of rutabagas, get a runny nose and have to run to the doc...

I heard he wanted to ad a 50 cent tax on gas, YAY, like that will help our economy.


Bush sucks, but he at least has charecter, or about as much as a politician can have.

Kerry is just scum.

Bush will get my vote, but it will be in protest.

Kerry's economic plan terrifies me. His propsals looom like a textbook case of what not to do in a growing and recovering economy....

And what has Bush's economic plan done? Dont underestimate the economy of the world most powerfull country. I guarantee you it has a resilience of its own. Dont underestimate the country with the worlds largest population either. Anyways, Kerrys economic plan sounds good to me. You just cant come to grips with it because your politics has blinded you.

If Kerry had the econ plan that I wanna see I would have nothing against his econ plan...

He is gonna tax the crap out of business and will make the usa a less favorable envioronment for business, all busness and this will hurt the econ. Oh yes he'll reduce the corporate tax rate a bit, but all the other stuff will more than make up for it.

You are not going to restore the econmy by artifically protecting inefficent business paractices and this exactly what kerry's rules and enticemts aim to do. He is running hard for the midwest manufacturing vote so he has to put in lots of that protections bs..
