I want change and I support Bush. Here are some changes I want to see:

I want less dependence on foreign oil, so I support the candidate who has called for tax credits for biodiesel, ethanol and other alternative fuels - George W. Bush. I support the candidate who developed an energy policy that included conservation and new production at home - George W. Bush.

I want an end to the unconstitutional filibuster of judicial nominees. Something that has only happened once in all of American history. In 1998 Democrat Senatory Patrick Leahy said, "I would object and fight against any filibuster on a judge, whether it is somebody I opposed or supported." After Bush was elected, Leahy joined wholeheartedly in filbustering judicial nominees. I want to see that changed and that means voting out 5 Democrat Senators.

I want a change in domestic spending - I want less of it. Kerry has proposed some 2 trillion dollars and counting in new domestic spending. That certainly won't help the deficit either, though frankly the deficit is low relative to GDP in historical terms especially for wartime.

I want a change in Iraq and the war on terror. I want to send terrorists the message that America will not back down, that we will not shift in our positions based on casualties we see on TV, that we have the guts to see this thing through. That if we commit troops to battle, we will support them once they are there. That once the American people vote to fund the troops they won't vote against it. The best way to send terrorists that message - re-elect George W. Bush.

From what you have stated, you sound like you want Kerry.

Reply By: Patriot_Flamethrower(Anonymous User)Posted: Friday, October 08, 2004Well, "COL Gene", so much of what you have stated is FLAWED, that I really don't know where to start.

Well, I could write a BOOK on all of the errors and lies and political rhetoric and half-truths that you spewed in your RANT, but I am not going to waste any more of MY time on you. It wouldn't do any good anyway, because you are just a typical leftie SHEEP, too lazy to spend the time seeking the TRUTH, and too unintelligent to understand the big picture

sounds like the right's getting a little worried and defensive... if people are so comfortable in their political position, why must they rag on the other parties...are they afraid someone might like what the other parties say?

Excuse me the *left* is NO better!

Excuse me the *left* is NO better!

LoL...I didn't say it was. But you don't find many of the "left" bloggers on here calling people boogers and such, as Patriot has. *rolling eyes* this election has gotten way out of hand.

I believe I will be disenfranchised, and vote for a third party. Then I don't have to worry about being labeled left or right, as I am finding them both to be disgraceful.

I love the statistics that come out every presidential election regardless of whose running. It’s always the same thing, see how many poor we have without jobs, see how the economy has grown, but clearly not enough to supply jobs for everyone. Its facts of life people, its human nature to better oneself, and as it is with every developed nation, and every developing nation, and most of the others too, one does that through $$. Even if we split everything we have evenly, even if there weren’t greedy and needy, even if we got rid of all the people who would take advantage of situation, everyone would have to do without. It’s sad but true. I'm not saying this in defense of Bush, though I admit he's currently my candidate, I say it because to think everything is going to be peachy keen is just silly and juvenile.

If things were really bad (and they’re not, things are really pretty good relatively and comparatively speaking), and you can point out exact reasons why such things are a presidents fault, then by all means vote against him. Remember hind sight is 20/20 though, its easy to point fingers after the fact, and its easy to listen to the flowering speeches of others of how they could do better, but unless I've been living in a perfect world, and haven’t known it, things don’t always work out the way we plan, just look at Kerry, how many of his bills have made it into law.

I personally think Kerry is an over-inflated bag waiting to pop. He makes promise after promise, half of which contradict previous statements, and seems to be living in a reality of his own. Dealing with real problems if he were to be president is an entirely different matter, he’s going to have to deal with a government that is going to oppose him frequently, he’s going to have to deal with unforeseen circumstances, and he’s not going to be able to deliver everything he’s promised. That’s just the way it is, with every president.

I think Kerry is going to win, and that’s all right, even if we had a great president the wrong circumstances could deal out a horrible four years, and the opposite is true for Kerry. When someone gives me a crystal ball then I'll spew out prophecies of a bleak or prosperous future, but until then, all values out the window, I’m going to vote for the person I think interferes with my life directly and indirectly the least. Last 4 years have been great, and with the way things are going the future is only brighter.

"Hey Bakerstreet, you just proved all my points. Not necessary, but thanks I guess. And yes I am very well informed thank you. That a problem for you?"

Pfft. You made the point that people who disagree with you are misled, brainwashed, ignorant, get all their information from TV yap, yap, yap.

Fine, you pick then. You're either paranoid or intolerably egotistical. You either believe that somehow you are better than 50% of the nation in that you weren't brainwashed, or somehow the dark, brainwashing conspiracy didn't get around to you.

I think if you open your eyes you'll see a LOT of very noteworthy people who are vastly well educated and well informed support Bush. When you come here and pretend that people vote Bush because they are ignorant or brainwashed you just turn scrutiny toward your small-mindedness...

Sandy 2 The things you say you want will never come about with Bush

I know... who said I ever wanted Bush?
