I had the most astonishing thought last Thursday. After a long day of hauling the kids to playdates and ballet, I turned on the news. And there was the president, landing on the deck of the USS Abraham Lincoln, stepping out of a fighter jet in that amazing uniform, looking--how to put it?--really hot. Also presidential, of course. Not to mention credible as commander in chief. But mostly "hot," as in virile, sexy and powerful.

"I still think ( know ! ) that females who vote for a candidate, because they " think he's cute/sexy/a hottie ", shouldn't be allowed to vote. "

And how about people who can't follow an arrow to a hole to punch? How do you feel about dead people voting?

Oh, you mean the little clique, here, who drools and coos over what he wears, even though the shoulders of his suits are too big and he usually wears the same pale blue tie, which he occassionaly replaces with a red one ? That group ?
NO THANKS And as far as " lightening up "; if, again, that means sounding like a middle schooler, whose hormones have just kicked in, so that ANYTHING, sporting a different set of genitals, than mine, is considered to be " a hottie "... NO THANKS ; yet again.

He walks like a duck? I never noticed that, more of a strut or stagger(no not a drunken stagger, a John Wayne Stagger)

"I think he is actually protecting me and my sons, and I find that attractive in a man."There is so much that is attractive about President Bush, but if it takes a flight suit to get some people's attention, so be it.

This is *very* interesting. I sure hadn't thought of it, but Bush looking virile and vital in a flight suit may have won the soccer moms for 2004!

I found it interesting, because I've never heard talk like this out of the West Side either (I live on the East Side, which is a wee bit more conservative). Giuliani pointed out the Upper West Side to Bush in a limo one day, as they (Bush, Giuliani, and Pataki) were headed up the West Side Highway after Bush's visit to Ground Zero. He told him "This is the Upper West Side. You got about four votes here in the election. Don't feel bad, George and I only got about six."
My opinion: The first step in conversion is to create a positive feeling in the conversion target. They might be resistant to the idea of converting, but feelings like gratitude or even simple admiration can later lead to "he's not so bad after all; maybe the New York Times was wrong about him."
And I really don't think it's so much worse than men voting for Gore because they had more respect for the New York Times editorial page than they did for the power of their own brains.
There's a whole lot of people out there who shouldn't be voting, but they DO, so they're a factor.

Sorry that's because there from a Official Navy Website, you can get them yourself by going to the USS Abraham Lincoln Homepage.

I was just kidding, pointing out that there are a lot of problems with the way and reasons people vote.
I think people should at least take a test to show they understand the issues, to be eligible to vote, or at least be able to find the end of an arrow. But of course they would never pass requirements like that, and if they did, some corrupt Democrats would figure out ways around it.
And there are the "single issue" voters, where even if they agree with a person 99% of the time, but if there that one issue, in which the candidate may not be in full agreement, they don't want to vote for him. People were upset with Bush 41, because he didn't keep his word "no new taxes", took revenge by voting for Perot, and we got Clinton.
My point is that if it takes the "socker moms" a Top Gun landing to get their attention and vote for Bush, I am happy to count their votes for Bush, vs. his opponent, because the opponent is "smoother" and lies better and maybe is better looking.

Great pictures!
To: MEG33
Just agree to it, it's OK, you may have to do it a few times, there are several picturs, but it's just an https Navy site, so it's OK.
They are great pix, some I haven't seen elsewhere.

Thanks I relaxed once I knew what the problem was! Victory in 2004!

Women like you don't blush. You know who you are and are very pleased with it.
My wife is a tremendous cook and I'm very very separated! Haha!
