The football represents a great issue between the two candidates.  John Kerry is clearly out of touch with the average american.

Maybe if Bush spent less time playing football(the best sport ever) and more time working on his polocies then maybe he whould not have driven our country into the ground.

Would you rather have a person, who as a senator for so many years now, has basically acheived nothing for Massachusettes in the 20 years he's been "serving" them. If he can't do anything for a single state in 20 years, what the hell can he do for an entire country in 4

And what specifically has Kerry done during his terms as Senator that make you think he will be a good leader?  He only shows up to about 24% of his public intelligence hearings. (Source)

What policy/amendment/law has Kerry proposed while being a senator that you feel represents your views?  Anything?  Or are you just always "anti-bush" no matter what the president does.  

It is a sorry excuse (and irresponsible) when you vote for "anyone" that is running agaisnt Bush because you dislike him when you do not know anything about the other candidate.  

Educate yourself on all the candidates and then make a Wise & Responsible vote for the leader of OUR COUNTRY.

I'm anti-Bush because he has done NOTHING that has benifited our country.  I voted for him the first time becauseI bought into his bull shit.  I won't make the same mistake again "fool me once shame on... umm ahhh... well I can't get fooled again".  We already know Bush is a bad leader, and Kerry in the only other viable option and I am confident that he cannot be as bad or worse  that Bush.

what do you m ean by done nothing?  Just cause he didn't propose and ammandment banning gay marriages doesn't mean he didn't do anything.  Speaking of doing nothing, what good has bush done?  

If you want to talk stupid facts how bout the number of vacation days has Bush taken?  Where was he when he should have beed at his post in the national gaurd.  This man doesn't show up for work either.  The only this i like about that is when he doesn't shot up to work he doesn't fuck anything up.


oh, and to whoever commented on my first post, if you couldn't figure it out there are 2 instances where two letters are switched.  It's really not as bad as you're making it out, it's an abvious typo from fast tyoing.

And it's not dumb to vote somebody out of office just to do so.  If you couldn't agree more with the president, then why not vote kerry?  If you don't like your employees work, fire him.  If you'd ratehr have a piece of plastic as president, then why settle with the person who made you feel that way?  Voting isn't just about hiring someone, it's about firing someone as well (if they'er up for reelection)

A photo "captured" at the begining of a ceremony is not quite the same as a "dopey looking" Kerry.  We can all see the Bush photo was snapped seconds before he was to place his hand over his heart. (You really don't think the president forgot where his heart is now do you?) The Kerry photos are taken in his normal flattering posture.  But Hey, I can show some Kerry photos taken out of context as well.....


More photo opps for Kerry

Im just wondering how George Bush messed up this country? I am not seeing it anywhere. Maybe the Bush haters hate Bush because they are told to, I have asked many people why they hate G.W. no one can come up with a reason. So i ask it here, why do the Bush haters hate Bush? It certanly isnt the economy, its booming, unemployment is lower than it has been in decades. Hell when Clinton won reelection he won it on the unemployment numbers which were higher than they are now. Its not taxes, they are lower than they have been for a long time. The war on terror? Well that is a possibility, but i guess 9/11/01 never happened either did it? Find something REAL and ill listen. otherwise you are just blowing smoke.

Since you wanted to talk about employment...

When you are unemployed, you are collecting unemployment checks from the government thus you are part of the 5.4% of the unemployed.  However, when your unemployment runs out, you no longer receive checks from the government, thus, you are NOT part of the 5.4% unemployed.  And you offically dropped out from the workforce.

The problem is that after 9/11 many people was unemployed.  They became unemployed for 6 months to a year and then dropped out from the workforce because they are unable to find a job.

And the thing is that the amount of people in the workforce today was actually less when Bush took office.  The last time when the amount of workforce decreased during a president's administration was Hoover in the 1930's Depression.

dunno what would incline anyone to necessarily to "hate" W.  i am against him yes, but i dont want his head on a stake or something.  yes we all know 9/11 happened so quit putting words in liberal's mouths saying we'd rather do nothing to get revenge on the "terrorists."  the prime argument, of mine anyways, is why sink to their level and kill their civilians as they did to ours (hypocrisy?).  yes i'm pissed as much as you, but any dumbfuck can kill, we need an alternate solution.  out of pure honesty, do you think if osama bin laden is captured or whatever, terrorism will be nonexistant?  i'll agree with you on something tho, ppl should oppose bush on something that makes sense, not just funny pics, etc.

your joking me right???


unemployment is at a low, and the economy is booming?
where are you living right now, cuase that sure as shit isnt the US


yes, 9/11 did happen, but what the fuck does that have to do with anything right now? Afghan is over (well, its not because weve redirected troops, but it should have been) and we got "terrorism" where it struck us from, what else do you want to contribute to 9/11?

stop using 9/11 as an excuse, or a booster for bush, its not gonna fly. yes, we went and got revenge, but the last time i checked, the 9/11 ordeal was over by may 2002
whats come now is a shitstorm, ie, Iraq, which has nothing, 0%, to do with 9/11

thats why people "hate" bush, because hes going out and attacking "anyone who isnt with us" (your either with us or with the terrorists.........remember that speech??)
terrorism is a very broad term, and what bush is trying to do now in the middle east isnt helping the US one fucking bit, its just pissing off more people to join the so called "terrorist cuase"
i find the whole situation hypocritical

the US is noseing around in the middle east where it shouldnt be (well, not just that, but there taking over parts of the middle east to) and "terrorists" (the ones fighting the US army, not the ones contributed to 9/11, theres a difference here) are trying to make the US leave, but we just regard these people as evil doers and keep fighting the "good fight"

well, fuck, werent we the ones that fought the british once they started to fuck with our land to much, what do you call that? patriotism, well then these terrorists are "patriots" too


do you get my point.....9/11 has no connection to what bush is doing now, bush is just pulling reasons out of his ass to attack people, and thats what hes done wrong

that and domestic issues arent being resolved (you know, the issues that really matter, not some fucking war)
