  1. Or maybe they are trying to suppress the vote by trying to insuiate that the spread is insurmountable.... These spreads are not as big as Gore had in 2000... What say we wait until the voting is done and the votes are counted....
  2. The fact that noone knows what Kerry will do is scary... I have a strong idea of what he would do based on his abysmal record in the Senate for the last 20 years. Kerry has a track record of saying what it takes to be elected. He voting record contradicts half of what he says.... We had a very good idea of what GWB would do based on his limited time as governor of Texas.. Seems he continued to do those things he said he would do.. I have voted for democrats, idependendants and republicans in my life for many different offices.... I have voted predominately for republicans for president as I have believed they best represented my views. Bush was a better candidate than Gore and I am glad I voted for GWB then.... Thank God Gore was not President when 911 happened.. Bush was and is the right guy for this time,... even staunch democrats like Ed Koch believes this ..... and he doesn't agree with most of what GWB does but he agrees with him on the primary reason he should be president.... the war on terror.... every other issue is meaningless if we don't get thta right... Koch has said.... ""However, you are misinformed on my position as to why I support President Bush for reelection. I support him because of the Bush Doctrine, "we will go after the terrorists and the countries that harbor them." He has demonstrated that he means it by invading Afghanistan and Iraq, both threats to their regions and to the U.S. I do not believe that the Democratic Party, which is now dominated by those who preferred Governor Dean for president, but decided he could not win, has the stomach to take on worldwide terrorism. Indeed, a New York Times-CBS poll of the delegates at the Boston Convention demonstrated their opposition to John Kerry's position which is not to get out of Iraq now. It is the party activists who the candidate has to rely on to get elected and whose positions generally prevail. "I have held public office for 23 years. I was elected five times as Congressman and three times as Mayor with super majorities after the first election for each office. New Yorkers trusted my insights and common sense, and I believe they still do. The Islamic terrorists, in the words of Lee Hamilton, "want to kill us," and there are hundreds of millions of them. I want a President who is willing to go after them before they have the chance to kill us. "There is nothing wrong with American Jews, concerned for the safety of all Americans, to be grateful that President Bush supports the State of Israel when European states in fear of terrorism capitulate to the demands of the terrorists and are hostile to Israel." http://www.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2...11/145903.shtml
  3. not unlike the media's attempt to call florida before the polls closed in western fla in 2000
  4. One last time..... What is it about... "I continue to vote for someone who represents my interests... sometimes that person doesn't win... but I never vote for someone who I don't know what they will do just because he is running against someone I don't like... Thats just stupid!"... that you don't understand? I think you have issues to deal with... earlier you said.. "We don't know what Kerry is going to do. We do know what Bush is going to do. A lot of people hate the way the country is going, so it is "anyone but Bush". Remember, I said in the example it is your opinion that those things have been wrong, please don't respond that Bush didn't do these things. " So by your own words you are voting for someone who you don't know what they are going to do? That's smart.... Don't try to project your inadequaties on me.. I think I have been pretty clear on what I said..
  5. Once again... What is it about... "I continue to vote for someone who represents my interests... sometimes that person doesn't win... but I never vote for someone who I don't know what they will do just because he is running against someone I don't like... Thats just stupid!"... that you don't understand? who said anything about a non-vote? You do understand the theory of checks and balance don't you? There are Local, State and Federal offices at stake that act to "Check & Balance" anything the president could do and visa versa.... No president has carte blanche.. I rather cast my vote to support someone than to simply vote for anyone but... thats a slippery slope.. Have you ever thought for one second that your vote for anybody but Bush could lead to severe consequencies for the U.S.?
  6. You could also argue that maybe this is what happened to Germany in the 1930's and we all know how that turned out...
  7. What is it about... "I continue to vote for someone who represents my interests... sometimes that person doesn't win... but I never vote for someone who I don't know what they will do just because he is running against someone I don't like... Thats just stupid!"... that you don't understand?
  8. Thank God we don't live in that fantasy.. GWB did something about the war on terror.. GWB lowered my taxes.. GWB has not had an opportunity to appoint a new member to Supreme Court... GWB believes that Marriage is between a man and a woman...so do I.. not against some sort of civil union,,,,but not the same as marriage.. GWB does not try to be best friends with those whose interest are against the US interest... He was elected to represent the US... not corrupt government overseas. I continue to vote for someone who represents my interests... sometimes that person doesn't win... but I never vote for someone who I don't know what they will do just because he is running against someone I don't like... Thats just stupid! Fortunately I have always been able to vote for someone based on thier record... Problem with Kerry is he only has a record of saying whatever he he thinks people want to hear... all sides of all issues... has no real principles except to blame america first.... He is the perfect Monday morning QB.. can tell you all the things that went wrong but can offer any suggestions how to fix things.... oh I forgot He has a PLAN!! What was that Plan again? I think everyone should vote for someone they believe in...
  9. no I can't.... product of liberal education... dumbed down testing etc... thanks for the help though!!
  10. So how many eskimo's can one get into a moderatley constructed igloo?
  11. Well Now I've heard everything... The problem with your argument is that 80-90% of Bush voters strongly support thier candidate and believe the country is on the right path.... and yes we do know what Bush will do... thats why we are voting for him Kerry voters are about 40% behind their candidate... the rest are anti-bush.... You don't know what Kerry will do and yet you blindly follow him? Those who don't know were they are going will never get there.. You blame Bush for everything and say he lies.... but when your candidate say the same things you overlook what he said... Ahh but ignorance is bliss isn't it?
  12. Probaly a better reason to vote than the anybody but Bush mentality... at least he was voting for a product they like...
  13. Have you watched Peter Jennings? Remember what he said before president addressed the nation after 911.. "no matter what you believe... he is still our president" Stephanopolis (sp)? Clinton's advisor.... Have your heard about ABC's political director, Mark Halperin and his instruction to be more critical of the President? Fair & Balanced? Keep drinking the Kool-aid... Outside of George Will.....
  14. Wow... this is scary I just started a similar thread....
  15. the woman probably doesn't like the truth because it hurts her cause..
  16. So since Women won the right to vote over 84 years ago, the average age of those who remember not being able to vote would be 102 (84+18).. What precint to you vote in? Must have excellent health care!
  17. Or... it could be market forces at work with supply catching up witth demand.
  18. Yeah like CBS & ABC are so quick to retract their known lies and distortion... Rather & Jennings what jokes...
  19. If you smell fear... Tell your liberal Dem friends to take a bath... this is not France or Spain!!
  20. Diplomat dad says the only way out fast is to get 3 purple hearts.... don't have to be enemy inflicted wounds either....
  21. My daughter was off today for parent teacher conference.. Took her to the polls were I make my usual joke to the poll worker about returning in a couple of hours to vote again.... mentioned we lived in Chicago for a while and that is how we voted..... my daughter asked if it was like the fast pass system at disney world... we you get to cut in line...LOL Anyway brought her into the booth and showed her how we vote.... she asked why I didn't vote straight across... it was a little confusing to her but she figured it out when she aligned the columns.... too bad they can't figure that out in FLA...LOL When we left my daughter said "see you in a few hours to the poll workers" as she let out a little giggle.... God was I proud....
