...Take a look at the 'celebrities' that
came out for Kerry. Moore, Franken, P-Diddy, 50-Cent. Are they
your vision
for
a better America?. I hope not, because you seem far too
intelligent to
think
like that...

One thing that definitely needs to change is the snobbish elite
view that
all
Bush voters are ignorant rubes and yahoos...

Hm.......

What's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander.

Well now, THERE'S a brilliant thesis defense.

That's as silly as anything I've read in this thread. Not all Shrub
voters
are ignorant yahoos, but 75% of them are.

You flatter yourself. You ain't a hair over 43%.

That's the silliest thing I've read in this thread.

If you believe Saddam Hussein
was involved in 9/11 you're so criminally stupid and uninformed you cannot
possibly cast an informed vote.

Saddam Hussien was *not*, I repeat *not* involved in 9/11, and the Cheney quote
that the Dem's were playing ad infinatum was taken out of context. When you
hear the whole conversation, the meaning is quite different. That said, Hussein
was involved in supporting terrorism.

And calling those people stupid
is not arrogant or condescending or elitist, it's just flat out true.

What people are those Ken? And who the **** are you to decide who votes or
doesn't. If your attitude is representative of the Democratic party, and it
doesn't change, you are doomed to a generation of Republican administrations.

I
don't give a **** if you think Lawrence Welk reruns are the only decent
thing on TV and that watching Will & Grace makes hair grow on your palms
but by God if you're gonna vote you have an obligation to be informed.


I didn't care for Lawrence Welk fifty years ago, and certainly wouldn't watch
the reruns. The gay marriage issue is not even on my radar. I couldn't really
care less about a person's sexual orientation, and in fact, I was disgusted
with Kerry and Edwards making the remarks they did regarding Mary Cheney. WTF
was that about?



The one thing that definitely needs to change in this country is that
"liberal" is a dirty word.

Liberal didn't used to be a dirty word. It is the current implementation of
'liberalism' that has tarnished it.

"What's the Matter with Kansas" by Thomas Frank. Give it a read George,
it just might change your mind.

Well, i'll have some time over the winter, so I might do just that.

That is probably Newt's biggest legacy - the knee jerk word association of
liberal with something bad.

From:

On this George is absolutely right. You will never sway voters
to your side by telling them how stupid they were to vote the
other side. You'll simply entrench them even stronger. And, like
it or not, this atitude *is* what the average rural American is
seeing from the "urban intellectual" mouth of the Democratic
party. Do people really want to hear Michael Moore tell them what
idiots they are for electing Bush the first time? If you think
the answer is yes, then the Democrats will lose again fours years
from now..

Thanks Jon. I'm glad somebody gets the message.

If a nuclear bomb ever (probably will, at this rate) goes off
in a US City, you can kiss democracy good bye for ever.
Count on it.

If the Palestinians had followed Ghandi's lead and/or Martin Luther
King's, they would have a homeland by now. But the blame for this
mess is still primarily ours--and England's. We created this mess
in the first place, and then spent a half a century siding always
and unquestioningly with the Israelis. The Palestinians got screwed
from the getgo. The do have reasons for their animosity.

The arab israeli conflict is not the only issue, but it is the primary
issue. The arab israeli conflict is the engine of discontent in the
middle east, and we seem to have no vison, no strategy and no plan
to face up to this.

Expect the worst.
