Bush supporters give me a break!

I have just read through some of the info on the GOP thread and this will be my first time posting a discussion, so here it goes:

I truly feel like whenever I hear a Bush supporter speak, it is like listening to someone with Stolkholm syndrome, THEY ARE COMPLETELY BRAINWASHED!!! I mean, honestly, unless you are living in a cave (without internet, mind you) there is no way that the Bush supporters do not intake the same news that I do.

HE LIED!!! HE LIED!!! Let this serve as a newsflash to anyone who did not know. THERE ARE NO WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION. IF THERE ARE, HIS DAD SUPPLIED THEM. This is something that they were aware of befor the sent us into Iraq. That is unethical manipulation of your position of power.

For those of you who were just about to argue that we went in for "humanitarian" reasons to collapse the tyranical reign of Saddam, let me just halt you in your tracks. Why are we not in any country in Africa, in which there are civil wars, AIDs epidemics, and feminist repression running rampant due to governmental proceedings? Why are we not in China? Why are we not in Palestine (oh wait, I forgot, we are, sponsering their killing by the Israelis)? Becaus they do not benefit us? So what's the deal, we fight for humanity contigent on how much money we gain from it? Give me a break!

I read another posting about how Republicans are frustrated with the Democrats focus on how George Bush cannot speak. A couple interesting points: It worries us that he cannot speak because you'd think that after a couple years at Yale, the University rated number one on the recently released Princenton Review, that he would be able to process a few words. I guess the fact that he graduated with like a D average just does not count. Additionally, I would just like to call to attention the fact that over and over again science has come to the conclusion that the major difference between humans and the animal kingdom is our ability to speak, and our advanced methods of communication which in turn lead to organization and technology, thus the advancement of the human race. If he cannot speak, then he is getting closer and closer to the animal, right?

Finally, on the GOP thread several posters commented on how although Dems were calling them nervous, they were actually unwaveringly confident. Yeah, I would be too if my party had just rigged the last election!!

People, women, get to the polls!!

Let's make it like father, like son, one term!

Ben Afleck and Bill O'Reilly came up with a sollution to the taxation problem.

On the Federal Income Tax form, they need to include a box that you can check, or an area where you can put in any additional tax dollars you would like to pay to the Federal Government since you are so wealthy.

I think that would be a great idea. Then those that feel they are more fortunate and dont deserve a tax cut could actually give more to the Government. It would also be easier to find out who would be the hypocrite and who would actually do something like that. I know that Massachusetts has this available on their state form.

Massachusetts already has a higher tax bracket people can volunteer for if they want to pay more taxes. John Kerry chooses not to subject himself to it the higher tax.

Lani,

Just look at it this way, he's trying to make up for his failed business attempts. At least now he's gained a lot of respect from the oil companies and those associated with them. And that could benifit us, couldn't it? Oh wait...

Gee Whiz, and Bush is such a champion of higher taxes for rich (I mean his base).
