I tend to think that the prolbem with Bush is that so many people hate him, not that he’s doing *that* bad of a job, when you think about the last 4 people in office..

But I cant vote for Kerry, I’m scared to death that if lying sob wins, we will pull out of Iraq his second day in office saying “well, sorry we made a mess of things.. uhh.. later” good grief, if you think we have a terrorist problem now.. If I’m not mistaken we have done this so many times before thats a big reason why the world hates us.

What happned to Lieberman, is it too late to change our minds?

I also agree that we’ve done this way too many times in the past, and that this is a large part of the reason the rest of the world doesn’t trust us. However, I don’t have any worries that Kerry will do this. He says he won’t, and I believe him. He seems like he’d be a “status quo” sort of President–won’t do anything really bad, but won’t do anything really good either. The way I look at it, if we can find a new President who doesn’t do anything really bad, that gives us four more years to find the next one. As per the opening sentence, I’ll be waiting with baited breath.

It seems to me that the dems constituency is basically teachers, lawyers, and sexual deviants. My kids will suffer greatly and more immediatly (on the homefront) if these forces are allowed free reign as they had during the Clinton administrations.

There are alternatives to the ‘lesser of two weevils’ as you may be aware. Why would you not vote for a Libertarian?

Pending the resolution of litigation, I will be a congressional candidate this year. The fact that the political cartel of the two weevils have conspired to deprive you of alternatives may help explain why you are conflicted.

I support the free software movement and I appreciate your efforts. Yes, I use THAT awful OS also, but I keep my really important stuff on a linux system. No matter which way you decide to vote, keep going to make freedom software.

::sigh :: These people are lunatics and its almost imposable to have a political conversation with them.. There are many legitimate reasons for not supporting Bush (such as the Patriot Act or Immigration) but Doris.. my gawd… get a free-kin clue.
