Ya ain't votin' for GWB.

Yer votin 'gainst Dean and the Democrat Dwarves, Nader, McKinney, Harry "Its all America's fault" Browne and all the much worse alternatives. Just try imagin' America's response to 911 under Gore. If you think that's bad, imagine Harry Browne's response to 911 (warning: don't try this on a full stomach). Try imaginin' the future of the USA under Dean or Hillary!. Yer votin' for GWB 'cause he's the only one who can keep them out o' the White House.

Yes, it ain't much of a reason, just as GWB ain't much of a conservative, but he beats the heck out of the alternatives. Personally, I'd rather be votin' for Alan Keyes or Steve Forbes, but they'd probably be runnin' 'against a Democrat incumbant. Fer some reason, folks these days don't seem to have the courage for strong medicine.

But, that's entirely the point. Ever since I was old enough to vote, the choice has rarely been for the best candidate, it's been for the lesser of the two evils. That's no choice at all.

Bush has not earned my vote again. He has trampled on my rights under CFR and will negate my rights of citizenship by giving it away to illegals. What's the difference between him or Dean? Both have 4 letters in their names, they just don't use the same 4 letters. Dean is more strident and, like his Democrat colleagues, he is an idiot with lots of idealism and promises that people want to hear. Long ago, politicians learned that it didn't matter WHAT they said, anything that got them elected was fair game. IMO, that's what Bush has done. He told us what we wanted to hear and he wasn't either Al Gore or BJC.

I have seen some of my colleagues on this board being accused of being "one-issue-voters" over the CFR issue. If you want to re-elect Bush solely because of his stance on the war, wouldn't that make you the same thing?

We all pick our battles. I have chosen this one because a man who has been presented as principled and ethical has betrayed the trust that we placed in him.
