What will you do if Bush wins?
| Fri, 08-20-2004 - 12:02pm |
I would like to know what you all will do if Bush wins? I don't know if I can handle another 4 years. Any ideas of how to reclaim our country and restore democracy and freedom? I'm worried that another 4 years will increase the authoritariansm and absolute power that Bush has come to claim and further trample on our constitution and individual liberties. I'm truly frightened.

Second, nothing has been "taken away" from you. Abortion is still legal as far as I know, and gays are fighting for rights they did not have to begin with.
Just wanted to clarify. Semantics are important in a debate.

Second, while I am basically pro-choice myself, I am cautious about categorizing abortion as a "women's right," since so many women are opposed to abortion and are offended by such a categorization. The right to vote, the right to work, the right to pursue happiness ... sure, these are women's rights. The right to abortion? Not quite so. And I think if the Democratic Party wants to broaden its base of appeal to women voters, they're going to have to start offering them more than the right to have an abortion, which the majority of women won't use.

I bet you love the fact that Michael Moore and others have begged Ralph Nader to withdraw from the race.
What is wrong with having another person. Obviously there are people that dont want to vote for Bush, but cannot stand the thought of voting for Kerry either.

But the question is why didn' t gays have that right to begin with? They are Americans too, they have the right to all the benefits and protections of any other American. There is nothing about gay marriage that will hurt heterosexual marriage, it can only be good for us all, creating stable unions which are good for the economy and good for raising children.

Because a woman may choose not to use a right she has does not mean it is a right that is not important to have. Women fought long and hard ( some died)

If you read my post before answering it you will find the answer to your question is there. Youre selective reading will not force me to continually repeat myself.
