I\'m very much an extremist, so I expect to be countered by 99% of humanity. In fact, if I were to express my true ideology to you, I\'m sure all of you would hate me... Or at least the US citizens.

1) Then what is? Senator? *snorts*
Well, Senator is very much a sibling office to Governor, so no, being a Senator alone doesn\'t make one suited to the task either. I support Kerry because of his career, Bush has had none (other than being his father\'s son, obviously). While I do not support combat in any form, Kerry
did risk his life for the country, which can\'t be said for Bush, who joined the Reserve to dodge the draft, then didn\'t even show up in the first place.

3) That may or may not be true, but it\'s a good point. In my opinion, Iraq is better off without Saddam, so I have no problems with that.
I just don\'t see how we have the right to go in and change another soverign nation, especially one that poses no direct threat to the US. All nations have the same innate right to exist independantly and under their own rule of law.

4) Most people seem to be in support of it; why shouldn\'t he?
The President has a moral right to uphold and defend the constitution, which should be beyond one\'s desire to be reelected. This situation just proves how little respect Bush has for this nation.
As for the condition of the economy, its not terrible, but its not great either. Despite his best, feeble, attempts, Bush has not been able to squeltch this situation. Jobs have actually been
lost under this administration. And as for taxes, the average joe has recieved very little of Bush\'s promises, most of which going to the rich. The rich
don\'t need more money in their coffers.
You people also can\'t be so greedy, you sometimes have to take a hit for the greater good. We as individuals don\'t matter, its the species -- the community -- that matters...
I do agree with you, Venge, the Democrat\'s economy campaign
could backfire on them, but the situation would have to change...
The plain and simple is the United States and everything it stands for disgusts me these days. We\'ve fallen from our old graces on which this nation was founded. The US was founded on the prospects of freedom, yet more and more of our freedoms are taken away... How has our population become so bigoted?
As I forgot to earlier, I should also mention that even more than I hate Bush, I hate Ashcroft, but he\'s very much a product of Bush. The \"Patriot Act\" makes our nation no better than Iraq. I once expressed my views openly, but now I do not for fear of what
they can do to me. If my opinions don\'t coincide with what is \"normal\", or even if they don\'t coincide with Ashcroft, all my freedoms can be taken away for no reason, other than I used the freedoms in the first place. The Patriot Act binds this nation, you call it a Democracy?
If only it was so simple, I\'d move to Canada; now
that\'s a country.
Ah well, that\'s just my 2 cents; not that they\'re worth anything considering inflation...
