Other - Politics & Government - July 2006

I have to ask this question just because of some of the answers on Yahoo and people I meet. Someone asked what a word meant and sure enough a liberal had to take a cheap shot at GWB. The question had nothing to do with politics but this individual had to make a political statement even though it had no place.

Why?

I once got in a discussion with a liberal who was argueing that GWB was responsible for the tsunami that hit SE Asia. Can you believe that?

Why are liberals so angry? You would think GWB went into thier homes and took a dump on thier living room floor with some of the hateful things people say.

Now, these guys have every right to voice thier views and I will be the first to defend that right for them, but can't we be more constructive?

you feel that the elder Bush should have done this job, but didn't... and now you feel like you should correct past mistakes...

I don't know if I've ever heard anyone say this personally... I was just thinking about it the other day....

frankly... this is the most logical and sensible reason I've thought/ heard to support the war.... and I could almost understand it...

what do you guys think?

I have noticed, when I listen to political conversations recently, it seems that a lot of people involved in those discussions are tired of destructive partisan politics and that they would like to see more consensus, rather than a "partisan" position from the parties.
Therefore the question evolved: What IS partisan ?

Is it their smell? Their attitudes? The fact that they were humping Saddam before the war? What?

With our nations political capital squandered, Our war chest waisted, Our allies alienated, Our military buried in a quagmire, how can we now deal with real threats like the nuclear ambitions of Iran and N Korea?

I see oh so often healthy Americans that are unemployed due to sheer lack of ambition. They bum off of family and any government aid they can get (which the squander on booze and smokes). They are a waste of space.

I think there should be some sort of law enacted to force these people off of the couches and out into society. Maybe then there wouldn't be all the jobs for all the immigrants that come into our country illegally

Even though there are lots of people who disagree and stop at nothing to talk crap about him, the fact still remains that he is a good moral man who volunteered for this job, got elected and is actually standing up for America.

And to all of you who will respond to this question stating how he has sold america out for money and how he lies nonstop because he is a loser, and that he sells drugs to kids, and that he is a cheater and ignorant, grow up. We all know that there are many Americans who take all these lies from the media and exaggerate them just to make George Bush look like the devil in disguise.

I am glad we finally have a president who is workinf hard for this country and trying to do his best at his job. I support him 100% and I always will.

I hear this all the time on here... and granted, Bush and Republicans won the election and congress... but the NATIONAL presidential election was 51 percent to 48 percent... that's far from a "vast majority" that you keep talking about... that's a VERY slim majoirty... against KERRY, a candidate most of us would probably agree is weak...

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/politics/elections/2004/

when I think vast majority... I think 75 percent...

I was a suporter of the war based on information given at the start of the war. but after billions of our dollars and hundreds of troops I am questioning my own thinking at the start of the war. So this is what I have came up with: The billions of dollars we have invested in the war on terror I belived could have been more usefully spent on developing not only an alternate fuel source but also the an affordable coversion kit for automobiles currently on the road. This would stop two things first it would stop the rollercoaster of gas prices, afuel made in america for americans would not be subject to outside influences on price andit would not be as easy to manipulate the market as oil is today. This would help ease our pain at the pump. The spin off would be even better for America than the gas savings, oil is the life blood of terorism, with out it it dies. So here is the question, could an alt. fuel end a majority of terrorism? And no I am not a liberal, just a thinker....

arguing with liberals: what are some good points to shut up liberals when they argue with you. whenever i give them a great point they just dont get it and say that i am wrong when it is simple to see that i am right. i need something that really gets them good, i will take anything.

and I admit - it does come from ignorance. But I believe alot of us are ignorant of this subject. North Korea. Why is it - back years ago we KNEW what Hitler was doing all the time and what was going on in Germany and the dictator of North Korea has kept their people under wraps completely? We have SO much technology now (compared to then). How SMART is this dictator? How MANY weapons does he have that he can afford to test and still have some left? Why would he aim at California? Why don't we, as a nation, know enough about him or the country? We don't know and that is sparking fear in people (I'm in Florida so I'm not writing because I'm afraid he is going to bomb California or West Coast - although I would be EXTREMELY upset if that happened - don't get me wrong please). Why don't we know enough? If you are knowledgeable about him or his country, please share your thoughts. Again, I apologize for my ignorance on this subject.

Hate monger Ann Coulter has taken verbal potshots at almost everybody.. I'm not sure if she's attacked the pope and Billy Graham yet.
If she's rakin' in the big dough from plagerism and hate..... then let's all hate each other and get rich!

Oh wait, we already do.

In these extreme times, I see more and more people from both sides attacking each other. The conservatives, the Republicans, the ones who approve of President Bush call the ones on the opposite side idiots, bad Americans and a lot worse. Those on the left do almost the same. I believe that both sides are educated and research their facts, yet they are interpreted differently.Will there ever be a time where both sides will stop fighting against each other and work together for a more positive future? (I'm a leftie!)

after George Bush, he's/she's going to have to clean up a lot of crap and it's going to be tough on whoever it is. Do you think we (and the rest of the world) can be patient enough to wait?? It's going to be a horrible job and everything isn't going to be fixed overnight. What do you think the next president can do that would make the rest of the world respect us again (in a short period of time)????

It appears the "White House leak" to the Times (and was printed) scandal has withered away. This is getting to be a habit with the Bush/Cheney gang. So far, they've "rallied" around... flag burning, gay marriage, abortion and WMD's and haven't really produced many results.
Where's president BBBrain's "political capital", he intended on using so profoundly.

Then why in the world is the US wanting to stop Iran and North Korea from getting nuclear weapons when they will not get rid of those weapons. Do keep one thing in mind, the US is the only country in the world that was barbaric and cowardly enough to actually use nuclear weapons in time of war.
