Some sensitive democrat supporters got my previous post pulled and I admit I went overboard but I am just so angry at how ridiculous some people get.
The whole Idea that because the republicans haven't done everything you want you want them out and want the democrats in TO SEND A MESSAGE.
The only message it sends is you want Bush impeached or at least a long costly trial that will weaken the US in the world and embolden the terrorists.
You want a much better chance at much higher taxes.
You want a very good chance we cut and run from Iraq and Afghanistan.
Tell me these things won't happen if the dems take over and since when do conservatives want cut and run and higher taxes?
And why do you want the terrorists emboldened by a weakened Bush?
Yes he hasn't been perfect but the alternative is much worse.
The Republican congress under Bush has been both good and bad for conservatives.
But the dems would make it 100 percent bad.
I agree on Bush's immigration bill. But it's much better than anything the dems want and if the dems win that's what will happen.
And another point if a vacancy happens in the SC right now at worst we'd get a middle of the road person if the dems win they'd make the most liberal justice look like Rush in comparison.
Vote republican even if you have to hold your nose and work at getting better candidates in 08.
If you truly believe the dem you'd vote for is better you're probably misled at best but vote for him/her.
But just to send a message don't do it.
It took the dems 12 years to take control if they do in 06. Do you want to wait that long to take control back?
I've been disappointed in Bush myself. But when I think of the alternative I get nightmares literally.
The dems will go for impeachment, higher taxes, cut and run and no immigration laws. They may not get them but its certainly much more likely to happen.
A vote against the republicans either for a dem or in default by not voting period is a vote against anything happening good for the conservative movement.
Maybe I'm different because I'm not 100 percent conservative. Some of my views lean a bit liberal (the biggest is while I'm anti gay marriage I am pro civil unions. By the way many gays agree with me on that including my gay republican cousin). But I'd rather vote for a rep willing to make some compromises than any democrat.
We're never going to get eveyrthing we want. But we're going to get what we have taken away and definitely not anything more with a democrat congress.
And believe me I will need a barf bag and nose clips to vote for Judy Barr Topinka in November. I think I should have an ambulance at the ready in case.
This is the first governor or presidential race I haven't put time into since I was 8 years old. I even go back to before I was able to vote to Ford in 1976 helping stuff envelopes at 8 years old.
Heck I've even voted for a democrat or too WHEN HE WAS THE BETTER CANDIDATE! Not to send a message but because he was the better candidate.
And for those who think I'm a DU in disguise. Read my post history.
Or why the heck do you think I'm ashamed to be from Park Ridge? Dave Butts the Washington Redskins star? No her name rhymes with Sillary Flinton.
I WISH THIS WAS ALL IN CAPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WITH WAY TOO MANY EXCLAMATION POINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ENDING WITH THE WORD 'COINCIDENCE'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LIKE MINE DOES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
COINCIDENCE???????????????????????????
I KNEW I COULD COUNT ON YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!
COINCIDENCE??????????????????
Question: Peeled or sliced?
I think not.
Or so I've been told.
Fear-mongering is not a good election strategy.
Agreed. Ashamed, I know the next few weeks are going to be difficult for you, but be not afraid, it will (probably) be ok in the end. I don't think the demogoguing demorats are going to take ANYTHING. But we can't be letting the linguini-spined pubies know that, nudge, nudge, wink, wink.
In a very polite way, I encourage you to learn how to punctuate your writings correctly, as well as use more proficient grammar-skills. You may get your point across more accurately.
I'm sure there will be a concerted effort by democrats in sheeps clothing to get Republicans to stay home "to send a message".
Please!!!
What do expect? Perfect candidates? Ain't going to happen, bub.
YES, IT'S WORTH YOUR TIME TO GO TO THE POLLS, if you care one whit about the future of your country.
Everyone on that ballot will be a fallible human, and nobody will agree with you on all things. But if you and your ilk wimp out in November, YOU can look in the mirror later and take the blame for whatever chaos and national security nightmare results.
Bush has made mistakes, just like every administration ever elected, but at least he's not a gutless appeasor, and he's trying his darndest to keep our country strong and safe. Keep in mind, please, that the Presidency is not a dictatorship, and that he has to have the support and cooperation of Congress, the judiciary, and foreign allies to get much done.
Your attitude makes you part of the problem.
Did they, like, change the rules around here? Like.
Ashmed is an islamic-style name.
Which proves you are an Islamic terrorist.
Ashmed is an islamic-style name.
COINCIDENCE????????????????
It doesn't hurt to put a little fear into the hearts of GOP policritters, even if we are going to show up at the voting booths (wearing gas masks) and vote for them anyway.
I second what the other guy said about using the primaries to express dissatisfaction.
lol....okay, you got me.
Your willingness to vote for any serpent with an (R) after its name makes you the problem.
a-s-h
