To all you people that hate bush.... And didn't vote.?

Question

If you didn't vote its your fault end of story. If everyone in america voted then bush never would have won. So stop complaining.

Answer 1

I heard bush cheated

Answer 2

Wrong.

You obviously haven't read "What Went Wrong in Ohio", which is based on the John Conyers report on election fraud in Ohio during the 2004 election. Yes, there is always SOME election fraud every election, but certainly not this widespread. The truth of the matter is, whether or not you think Bush is a good president (personally, I'd have to say not), the truth is that he stole the election. Oh, wait, he did that the first time, too, didn't he?

The problem is that we can't investigate it because the only two offices that CAN investigate is either Republican controlled (House Judiciary Committee) or actually in on the fraud (Ohio Sec. of State Kenneth Blackwell). So, let's not pretend Bush won fairly, and thus the fault of this is on those who didn't vote.

Answer 3

Bush didn't win either election. In order to win it has to be an honest election. BOTH elections were rigged. In the first election isn't it a coincidence that the state in question his brother was the governor of! The second one there were too many discrepancies that the board of elections couldn't explain. He was not elected, he was selected! And I did vote in both elections! Gore and Kerry! I can complain. Bush has got everything in this country ****** up so bad that I don't see it going back to the prosperous days of Clinton. He does not know his a s s form a hole in the ground and you dumb fu@kers that voted for him the second time don't either!

And to Ron S: Your support of an incompetent president merily shows your own incompetence! Dysfunctional you say? OK if Clinton was so dysfunctional why was social security trillions of dollars in surplus when he left office and was paying for itself in interest alone. NOW 6 years later under the Bush administration they are saying that will be BANKRUPT by 2050 if something is not done. Thats because Bush dipped his hand into the social security funds to fund his tax cuts for the WEALTHY like so many other republicans have been documented for doing. Not to mention the condition the economy is in now compared to how it was booming when Clinton was in office. It was in poor shape before Clinton was in office he got things going really well again, And then W. Bush fu@ked it up again. And the current state of affairs on terrorism? The Clinton administration warned the Bush administration about Bin Laden when they were on there way out and the republicans were on there way in. FACT! And do you know why that is? Because just like you they thought democrats are just a bunch of dumb a sses. If Gore would have gotten into office none of this s h i t would have ever happened because of his prior knowledge. And about the blowjobs, get real! hes just the only one that got caught. It did not affect his ability as president of the USA. He is a multi tasking president. He was bailing social security out of bankruptcy from Bush Sr. with one hand while the other was on the back of Monica Lewinsky's head. Bet you couldn't think that well while getting a b lowjo b! lmao. Pretty talented president if you ask me and many others!

Answer 4

I am 19 and was not old enough to vote at the time but if I could have voted I definetly would not have voted for Bush. I also reserve the right to complain as much as I want about a president who I believe makes rediculous decisions and can not even speak proper english.

Answer 5

You make way too many faulty assumptions.

Including the fact that tens of millions more people could have voted, and not voted for Bush, but if they didn't vote for Kerry their vote would not have made any difference because of the electoral college system. So, don't blame us who couldn't stand voting for either of the two 'major' candidates.

Plus, the problem isn't just Bush. It's the fact that Congress won't impeach someone who has admitted to breaking federal laws, and who has been found by the Supreme Court to have broken federal laws. And unless we speak out, Congress isn't going to do anything about that.

So, voting is just one small part of the solution. Public awareness is the rest. And that requires rational voices raised in opposition to stupidity.

Answer 6

It's probably more true to say, if everyone in America had voted, there's a much greater chance he would have lost. Who knows, many of the people who were too apathetic to vote might have voted for him. It's sad to say that many of those who did not vote, however, were young, and will pay the heaviest price for his administration.

Young people have more at stake in the world's future, if only because they will have longer to survive in it, and will bring their children into it. It behooves them to try to change it for the better, and voting for responsible, appropriate leaders is one of the most important things anyone can do.

As a child, I don't remember my parent ever trying to educate me about politics, or discussing with me or my sibling the importance of voting. I came to the realization on my own, eventually, but did not vote until I was in my 20's, and something happened politically that got me thinking.

I get the sense that many young people today are similarly at sea about politics in general, and know no more about it that what they learn in their high school US government classes, or pick up on the occasional overheard news blurb.

Moreover, to further confuse the issue, there is a continuing sentiment, widely echoed throughtout the years, that the electoral college renders the popular vote irrelevant. That is simply not true. The electors are required to cast their votes 'in good faith.' That means, if the popular vote in the the state the Elector represents clearly selects a winner, the Electors are required to cast their vote for that candidate. If they do not do so, they are voting in bad faith, selecting a winner based upon personal bias rather than doing their duty to the people they represent. Their vote can be set aside. Still, the myth that the popular vote has no bearing on the outcome continues, despite the fact that it is the basis for the entire process. People who are told that early on who believe it simply never bother to educate themselves further.

Young people are called on to fight and die in wrongful wars, and their future is mortgaged to pay for it. The environment they must live their entire lives in is poisoned and dying. They have reason to complain, whether they voted or not.

But, having become aware of what is at stake, if they then continue to abstain from the voting process, then you are correct. They will have no reasonable right to expect anything to change, or to feel cheated when they see their future turning even more bleak.

Answer 7

If I lived in America I would of voted, but I would never live in a nation (no matter how nice) that was run by a moronic prat.

And IF i was a US Citizen and IF I did vote, it wouldn't of made a difference as Bush would of rigged it until he won anyway, so it makes no difference.

Answer 8

I voted. But not for Bush. I don't complain though, I just accept defeat and deal the hard times.

Answer 9

It would not have mattered. Gore actually won the election by popular vote, yet Bush is our president. Wake up and smell the politics.

Answer 10

I have been voting since i became of age and i didn't vote for your president.Bush didn't win the elections, he stole it. Your president is the reason the USA is in the shape it is.Bush is a pour excuse for a president, thousands of lives have been lost since he has been in the office.Should i have to remind you of all of them.And its not just the democrats that i hear complain about him OH yeah i hear republicans complain also..

Answer 11

I can proudly say that I voted for Bush both times and unlike some democrats, I only voted once in each election. I have NEVER voted for a democrat and I never would.

If you liked a dysfunctional president, you will have your chance to vote again in 2008....Her name is Hillary and Bill......remember, all those BJ's that Bill was getting got us the current state of affairs with the terrorists, we need strength in our leadership and not another feel good, wishy washy type.....
