i donno who caught it tonight but it was about 9/11 and all that bullexcrement. In the middle of it one of my good friends decided to blurt out something that was quite offensive to my political beliefs so i thought i'd take a poll to see how this community feels.
feel free to get into a political debate about this, its always fun to see the opinions of others.
-
<-- Canadian. I don't have to worry about your president. Just tell him not to invade us and we will chill in our igloos and play some more hockey. =)

First what was blurted out Joe? Make it relevant to the debate. Also you want us to debate but you left out your opinion. :)
As a huge fan of South Park and labeled by others correctly as a 'South Park' Republican by my open minded thinking. I would point out two episodes.
a. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I'm_a_Little_Bit_Country
b. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douche_and_Turd
I have no party affiliation. If you don't lie and stand firm in what I believe is right then you might get a vote. I simply wont vote for strangers.
Do I support the President of the United States? Which one? Depends on the issue and if I agree with it. As an ex-military personal I had sworn to blindly up hold the Constitution and to obey all orders given by the Commander in Chief. Now that I am a civilian I can choose to when and where I believe he is wrong and do something about it.
If you are talking about George W Bush. That depends on the issue.
1. Deregulation of the telecoms was a decision I supported.
2. Going to war with faulty intelligence left over from another administration and hear say evidence from several foreign countries. Several of which were at war with America just within the past 60. Then on top of which having a post invasion strategy is well ehh not so smart. But worse have been done and time has not told its tale yet there. Here are some where time has told us Clinton capitulations on North Korea. George H Bush not finishing off Iraq, Syria and Iran. Now look those states. They are the largest threat to America besides sodas and fastfood.
3. Lifting assult rifle ban. Good idea.
I got more but will lay down now and dream of boning Hillary. Thats a nightmare not dream.
-
George bush is the dumbest mofo on the face of this planet...
-
Wow, loial and I actually have something in common. We refuse to vote, granted, for different reasons.
-
Cola you don't seem to bright yourself with a non productive and immature comment like that. I suppose I could be just as immature and say Queen Elizabeth II is a prehistoric ugly old bat but I won't.
Try offering actual political views rather than ignorant insults to the president of my country The United States of America.
Joe said "feel free to get into a political debate about this" Not a childish name calling session. >:(
-
wtf he is dumb.. he never knows what to say when he gets interviewed and this war should have never taken place... we could have ended it in the beginning instead of sacrificing American lives...
-
I have to agree he is not the best of spokesmen but he sure the heck didn't get to be the president of the United States by being "dumb" and if he did, I'm sure his stupid donkey is laughing all the way to the bank at you. ;D
Unfortunately, the war needed to happen or we would inevitably be sacrificing a lot more American lives than we have. The sad part is the way the Bush administration went about it and I fear that all we've done is postpone our own undoing. I'm sure that is an extreme way to look at it but because of the way the the war was handled in the beginning we have set ourselves up for a no win situation. While they are killing the terrorist, new ones are being born and bred to take their place all over the world. The USA is now frowned upon by more nations than ever before.
Can't pull out right now and win and it doesn't seem that staying will do anything but make matters worse.
There are a ton of pros and cons where Bush is concerned. I'm not real sure I even like him anymore but one thing I am positive of is that this year I will surely vote Republican. I was Democratic for years up until the past several years where all I see EVERYWHERE is members of the Democratic party wasting everybody's time with the ridiculous "blame game" It's ALL they do... I watch the news on many channels as a ritual and ALL I see is Dems blaming the Bush administration for everything bad that has ever happened yet NOT one time in the past few years have I witnessed any of them coming up with any viable solutions for any of the problems. They seem to be professionals at sitting on the sidelines yelling "He Sux He Sux" but all that gains Americans nothing. They add to the problem and contribute nothing to the solution... At least Republicans try...

Sounds like the paintball2 community. Must be full of democrats. :)
-
Aside from his bad decisions, Bush still doesn't even portray a good leader image.
I always watch the press conferences that are from the rose garden, and he's just so bad...he stutters while reading (very often), mixes up words, miswords common expressions when he tries to freestyle it, comments on what everyone is wearing...and somehow manages to laugh and smile while we're at war and he's talking about civilian casualties in Iraq. I'm in awe that what I watch isn't a FOX reality television show, and still can't accept that he hasn't been impeached yet. Curious George also shrugs when asked the most straight forward questions, he needs a better way for people to tell him what to say on the podium before people can take his speeches seriously.

Agreed Tinman... Sadly we didn't have a very good choice for the last presidential election...
When given the choice of poor stage presence along with several bad decisions made by Bush and weighing that against the spineless, dishonest and cowardice ways of Kerry, I'm glad I voted for Bush. If I had to do it all over again I would have voted for Sponge Bob.

So true, as expressed by Zach de la Rocha here: http://youtube.com/watch?v=tPToZBpzf-0
Smokey, Nader wasn't president material either...

3. Lifting assult rifle ban. Good idea.

3. Lifting assult rifle ban. Good idea.
...how?
Wow I feel totally baited, how exciting and new come aboard we have been expecting you!
I can't wait till you put that question into a contextual format in which I will be able to base my reply off of.
As it stands now your question...."how?"
1. How did GWB allow rain to happen when petting his assault rifle?
2. How does the earth turn when assault rifles walk in the oppisite direction?
3. How is lifting an assult rifle ban a good idea?
4. How much sound is heard If an assault rifle falls in a forest but everyone there is deaf?
I hope you ment 3.
Till then I will ponder the maxim 20/30 and ask......
Ok, How is not not a good idea to let americans citzens bear arms. The bad guys will have them legallly or not.
We can start there. :)
-
When they're legal, they're much easier to obtain. Instead of just the really bad guys having them, any bad guy who wants one can pick one up. (Yes, I know there's more to it than that. In some states.) I'd rather have a small percentage of bad guys have assult weapons than all of them.
-
As stated after the Columbine incident, assault rifles aren't used to hunt deer, they're used to kill people...why feed the killing of people? Why the hell do you need an assault rifle to protect your home? If you want to stop the "bad guys", join a military force and gtfo out of America with your stray bullets, if you want to protect your family, buy a handgun and/or a shotgun.
What's next? "5. lifting the weapons of mass destruction ban. Good idea."

Which is why you should not be allowed to vote. Noone cares if you don't like the presidential candidates, but don't make a mockery of our elections.

Fyre who the hell are you to tell me I shouldn't be allowed to vote and for what reasons? I NEVER said I didn't like Bush... And furthermore don't speak to me as if I am a foreigner. I am not making a mockery of our elections by exercising my God given AMERICAN right to voice my opinion and I assure you, you'll NEVER be man enough to take that right away from me
If you had any clue what you were talking about you would have known the last election and the one before it were both made a mockery of because of first Al Gore and the then Kerry both whining like b|tches because they got beat. The vote was rigged!! They cheated!! The machines were wrong Boo Hoo Wah Wah!!
If I'm not mistaken one of the two already had their large legal teams starting legal action before the election was even finished. They made a joke out of the whole system and wasted a heck of a lot of the American publics time.
Although I actually liked Al Gore, he wasted too much time talking about all the things the republican party did wrong rather than talking about all the things he was going to do to make things right for the American people.
Kerry simply needs to be put in front of a firing squad because of his history alone. He spent ALL of his campain as well as the debate between Bush and himself chastising the Republican party and the Bush administration and not once offering a solution for anything.
For the past several years ALL I have seen from leaders of the Democratic party is them using their every waking breath to slam the Bush administration and blame it for everything that has, is, and ever will go wrong with this country or any country. I have not seen them bring one complete workable solution to deal with ANY problem to the table. So many of the things they have said to the media demean all of us as Americans, put our soldiers in danger and make a mockery of everything we as Americans ever stood for.
Don't really want to go into this too deep but out of curiosity who did you vote for in the last election? Out of the choices I had, I voted for the best man but there are a great many things I'm not satisfied with as far as his performance is concerned. I completely believe we're in a whole lot better shape with Bush than we would have been with Kerry though.
Lastly, If you don't vote or didn't vote then you have no right to run at the mouth about anything in the first place.
-
I'm not old enough to vote, grandpa. You Republicans are all the same. YOU have not presented one piece of actual evidence of Kerry/Gore slamming the Bush administration for, as you put it "everything that has, is, and ever will go wrong with this country or any country." When, in reality, Bush and his cabinet of flunkies IS responsible for everything going economically and socially wrong in our country. Your ignorance is astounding.
-
I'm not even going to dignify your illiterate and confused little child's mind with a response Fyre... Good day!
-
Guess you agree that I was right. Appreciate the debate.

Fyre is almost as stupid as Dubya.

TinMan is almost as stupid as Fyre for double posting.
