Yes I'm a die hard Republican - thats why I would have voted for Clinton in 2000... (if I chose to vote and he could run for a third term, I dont vote and I wont vote till watermelon changes - see below)
So no you are wrong in this case, I'm no hard partisan. I'm not even partisan really, I just agree on some issues with the right and others with the left and express that - jarringly at times. However at this time the left pisses me off more, just as the right pissed me off when they were actually trying to impeach a president a few years ago, wtf...
But yea I will agree with you 100% it is the ridiculous nature of partisanship I have noticed I this country as I grew up here that turned me off of politics and made voting seem pointless because it seemed they just attacked each other because of different party system.
As for my comment about box cutters, it's sarcasm - but I do feel honestly that we must make some sacrifices compared to how we were before beacuse the world has changed. So far I personally have not seen the evils of this, CNN even in their constant negativity hasnt shown it to me either and even the nuttiest left wing blowhards on this BBS havent come up with the good either unless it's articles from extremly biased and unreasobale sources like the worl socialist website or something of that sort.
I like Bush because of his handling of 911, I like Bush for taking the big picture approach in Iraq and actually risking something for a long term gain and long term view for the mid-east. I hope it works out well. I like that he cut taxes because I'm a business major and I belive and have studied how lower taxes lead to greater growth and prosparity - it worked for Kennedy (who made a massive massive tax cut), it worked for Reagan and it seems to be working for Bush as recent numbers are very positive.
The Democratic candidates all seem weak and disorganized and basically have no ideas except vague procamtions of impending doom. Just think of it this way - Al Gore said we are less safe than before 911. This means that all the hard work, sacrifice and vigilance by millions of Americans in governemt and service and civil life has been worth nothing, in fact he states it has had a negative impact. He is spitting in all their faces and putting down their work, and why is he doing it? Because its an election year and they (and both parties do this) need issues.
Sorry Creamo, I'm not that simple to paint into a corner as some handy stereotype..
