Or, god forbid, he's actually being honest unlike Cheney who wasn't
born with that ability.


U'm not a particular fan of either GW or Cheney so it doens't make
any difference to me...or for that matter, Bill Clinton..I'm gonna
jump on the Ralph Nader bandwagon...

Well, that really was just a vote for the Bushco crowd last time.



No it was a vote for Nader. What is with Democrats saying that they
didn't
so much lose to Bush as get screwed bby Nader. If the Dems could have
gotten
a good strong candidate then they would have won the election.
Instead they
choose these non-threatening kind of wussy little guys. Americans
don't like
that. Americans like tough guys. As much of an Environmentalist as I
am I
could not bring myself to vote for Kerry. He is too much of a giant
"V" for
me. I don't think I am alone in this thinking. Democrats like that
sort of
guy and so I will never be a Democrat.


What we really need to do is ditch the 2 party system...I say go back
to a Parliament...with a Prime minister rather than a President...gets
rid of the whole popular vite vs electoral college vote dillema and
makes it so that other opinions can be heard in government..also allows
for the common man to have a chance to stand for his cimmunity...we'd
have to ditch the House of Lords concept and keep the Senate intact but
change the way the House functions..



I don't think I like this idea... you're right about the 2-party
system... we just need reasonable 3rd party candidates... Nader wasn't
one, and in my opinion it was a throw-away vote. I don't know if it
would have made a difference in the last pres. election, but it didn't
help and look who we got. I voted for Kerry/Edwards, but was never
highly impressed with Kerry. The lesser of two evils was my reasoning.
However, now we have a chance to vote for Hillary or McCain. I don't
think Obama is quite ready yet... another 8 years, then.... g


I don't like McCain..he'a an angry person and tires to rule by
intimidation...I do like Giuliani...if you can make sense out of that
hash called New York, you can make sewnse out of almost anything...as
much as I would like to see a woman in the WHite House, as President and
not as bed wench, Hillary just deosn't do it for me...I like listening to
er and think she is an intelligent person and on the private sector, if
we met I would probably like her..i do not like her politics, though...I
liked Joe Lieberman before they made a mess of him but this country would
never vote for a Jew for President...and at this point, that would just
inflame the Arabs to the point of total uncontrol...Edwards is too much
in the hands of money...the guy I really liked won't run...Mark Warner...



She's very middle of the road these days and very pro-military.

I never liked Liberman, and I thought Gore made a mistake picking him as
a running mate. He's too much of a follower in his politics.


"these days"...that's my problem with her..she waffles...




As opposed to Bush? As opposed to Lieberman who ran on Gore's liberal
ticket? Almost all politicians waffle.


Like I've said before, I am not a fan of GW Bish...Gore needed
Liebermann on his ticket becasue he (Gore) is so liberal that moderate
Dems needed something to convince them of the ticket...it wasn't enough
and look what happened..Gore is way, way too liberal....
