#10 didn;t refer to the chart

I should have known, actually reading or comprehending what the topic of the thread is about before you go off on your usual foot stomping tirade against Bush is something you're not very good at. In fact, watching you and your pals going from thread to thread posting your nonsense reminds me of watching one of the Democrat debates

[MJY1288]

Whay else would that question be asked ?

[Peach]

Fantastic post and graphic! Thank you.

[Richard Kimball]

Constitutionally, abortions are none of the court's business. They inserted themselves into it with Roe v. Wade. The congress should write the laws (actually the state legislatures should write the laws). Your statement makes no sense, as the judges currently are overturning laws passed by the elected representatives. Bush wishes to appoint judges that will recognize the constitutional limits on their authority.

[GeronL]

It is amazing that opposing liberal Bush policies is equated to being somehow liberal on this forum

how wacko

[Peach]

I do believe you have nailed it.

Monsieur Jean Kerry

Measure Number: H.R. 3396 (Defense of Marriage Act) Kerry (D-MA), Nay

"I think there has been an exaggeration," Mr. Kerry said when asked whether President Bush has overstated the threat of terrorism.

U.S. Sen. John F. Kerry yesterday said Pope John Paul II ``crossed the line'' by instructing pols to block legalization of gay marriage.

Nobody called you a liberal, what's the matter... you have a guilty conscience?

[Howlin]

Karl Rove and the trolls who are 'running' the Bush re-election 'campaign'..

They run FR, too. Karl Rove gave Jim Robinson a lot of money. Yep, Jim takes his orders from that bad boy now. ;-)

Do you remember when Bush was going to close Military bases and even VA Hospitals??

Bush now wants to build 6 National Cemeteries
: the Veterans Affairs will receive a record budget of $64 billion for the current fiscal year, up $4.2 billion from the previous spending level
: he now wants $28.4 billion for health care, up $2.9 billion from the previous year, and $32.8 billion in benefits programs
: nearly $176 million for health care and other programs to assist homeless veterans, an increase of over $22 million from fiscal year 2002
: $101 million to support state extended-care facilities, $3 million more than last year
: $522 million for construction, plus the authority to transfer another $400 million to health care construction

all of this after he wanted to close VA Hospitals etc.,

It looks like Veterans do vote and I want to see how many of these things happen, if he gets re-elected.

[Jaysun]

My opinions line up with Bush on all of the items here. But what about the other things? UN, environmentalist crap, and so on. I'm hoping HOPING that once he's in his 2nd term and doesn't have to worry about reelection, he'll shut off the valve to the spending pipe.

Tighter Immigration Controls

How Can I trust this?

Got link?

[DestroytheDemocrats]

"It's a fair question though, he just wants to know more about Kerry before he votes for him."

Well here's what we know. Kerry strongly favors partial birth abortion, strongly opposes tax cuts for business and strongly favors raising the minimun wage.

Vote Bush.

[MJY1288]

BTW, isn't their a forum for chronic complainers called Liberty Forum? You should fit right in

Here's where this thing stopped making any sense to me:
