"The conservative viewpoint does not tolerate people like
me."
You said a lot more about yourself, Lepi, than you did about
conservatives. As if this website is representative of the
conservative viewpoint. What it is representative of is peo-
ple who are used to having phonies and pretenders show-up
here to play games.
Sorry, but your thread post gives you away. You never voted
for GW Bush and you're here to gather ammunition for your
other forum endeavors or your skin is too thin. I was also
labeled a "troll" when I dropped in to ask a question a
while back about Kerry's 1992 speech when he told the
Senate that Vietnam service (or the lack of) should not
disqualify Clinton from consideration for the presidency.
The fact sKerry is now using his Vietnam service as the
"centerpiece" of campaign should trump healthcare consider-
ations in the mind of anyone with three brain cells to
juggle. The man is a flip-flopping liar and the difference
between you and I is that what people say to or about me
on this or any other forum says nothing about conservatism
or liberalism. Hell, healthcare was an issue when GW ran
against Gore but you still claim to have voted for Bush.
In your case the regulars have reason to be suspect.
Sivad, I think I can respond to you. It's much easier than being expected to respond to a few hundred angry responses all at once.
You are right about one thing. I did not vote for Bush in 2000, even though I had little respect for Al Gore either. But then came September 11. I am enormously grateful to President Bush for how he handled the worst attack on our soil in history. I am not playing games. If I have a hand in removing him from office, it will most definitely not be out of malice.
I think I have more than three brain cells, though I am becoming accustomed to the conservative viewpoint that I am stupid if I don't agree with them. The liberals tell me the same thing. I am stupid if I would even consider voting for Bush. In my view, these are the real games and that is why I remain independent.
I have so much goodwill toward President Bush that all it would take would be for him to confront John Kerry on the issue of healthcare with a realistic proposal and he would have my vote right away. I too am suspicious of John Kerry touting his Vietnam record, but I don't think the man is a liar. He has elected by Americans and I don't believe that Americans are stupid.
Thanks for your response.
