I need help finding the silver lining in Bush's election
so far I've only been able to come up with 3 things
  1. Bush can no longer claim he inherited the problems he actually caused
  2. Cheney could possibly suffer a heart attack, leading bush to suffer his own a heart attack when he realizes there's no one to lead him
  3. If Bush some how avoids destroying the world before the next election, there is little chance people will be dumb enough to elect another Republican for a good long while
    [/list=1]
 
I hope some other country, preferably France, comes to "liberate" us as we did Iraq.

I get really pissed off when Bush's people make derogatory remarks about French people. First of all, I myself am of partially French heritage and such juvenile antics as suggesting that Kerry "looks French" in a derisive way shouldn't be tolerated by anyone of any nationality.

it's not that hard..


  1. Bush can no longer claim he inherited the problems he actually caused

  1. Such as? I'm having a hard time coming up with one problem that he caused that he claims to have inherited...doesn't mean there isn't one, but you make it sound like every problem that exists was caused by him, and he inherited none...but that can't be, because that isn't true, so it's not clear what you mean.

    [*]Cheney could possibly suffer a heart attack, leading bush to suffer his own a heart attack when he realizes there's no one to lead him


    Hmm...last I checked 'twas the other way around. Maybe you haven't been aware that it was Bush we elected...


    [*]If Bush some how avoids destroying the world before the next election, there is little chance people will be dumb enough to elect another Republican for a good long while
    [/list=1]


    You mean like all the new Republicans that just got elected? All the new Governors, Senators, and Congressmen?

    It seems as though you are having problems coming to terms with the fact that the pendulum is swinging back the other way...the Dems/libs been running the show for long enough, and America is tired of it...it's time to try something else.

    Here's some more for you:
    1. We don't have to listen to 'mr war hero' (hehehe) anymore.
    2. We don't have to listen to Momma Ketchup anymore...geez, she's an arrogant,pompous, condescending b*&^h.
    3. We don't have to hear "I have a plan" spoken by someone who hasn't a plan.
    4. The Bush daughters are way cuter than the Mr Ed daughters.
    5. Maybe the left will finally stop spewing so much hate.
    6. Maybe, finally, we won't hear idiots like Janeinne Garofalo (I know it's spelled wrong...) and Al Franken accusing President Bush of not being elected...geez, they all need a group hug or something, so they can move on...sheesh.

Yeah, that's kinda silly....How does someone "look French"? Maybe dress French, speak French. cook French. Look French? Kerry doesn't look like any of the French people I know...but then again, neither do they... :)

  1. hmmm... lets see
    He tried to put the blame for 9/11 on Clinton, as well as the massive job losses.

    Doesn't mean he knows anything about anything
    Cheney has had a larger role in the actions of the Government than nearly any Vice Prez before him

    You mean like all the new Republicans that just got elected? All the new Governors, Senators, and Congressmen?
    Yep, I mean them and Bush. I'm making a prediction that we will come to regret it.

    It seems as though you are having problems coming to terms with the fact that the pendulum is swinging back the other way...the Dems/libs been running the show for long enough, and America is tired of it...it's time to try something else.

    1. We don't have to listen to 'mr war hero' (hehehe) anymore.
    1. Nope, now we got a wanna be cowboy for 4 more years (hehehe)
      [*] We don't have to listen to Momma Ketchup anymore...geez, she's an arrogant,pompous, condescending b*&^h.
      a little jelous I see. It's not like Mrs. Bush has done a damn thing in 4 years
      [*] We don't have to hear "I have a plan" spoken by someone who hasn't a plan.
      your right, I don't think Bush ever so much as suggested he had a plan
      [*] The Bush daughters are way cuter than the Mr Ed daughters.
      you got me there
      [*] Maybe the left will finally stop spewing so much hate.
      Only when the right stops spewing so much BullSh!t
      [*] Maybe, finally, we won't hear idiots like Janeinne Garofalo (I know it's spelled wrong...) and Al Franken accusing President Bush of not being elected...geez, they all need a group hug or something, so they can move on...sheesh.
      Instead you can listen to bimbo Ann Coulter and sexist Bill O'Reilly blame everything on the left even though the Reps are the ones in charge [/list=1] [/B]

I think they went with "he looks French" because their only other option was "he looks Jewish". And only certain Republicans can get away with that

He actually does look Jewish, and is in fact half Czechoslovakian Jewish (the real family name is Kohn, but his grandparents decided to change it to something more Anglican as a precautionary measure against bigotry and also converted to Catholicism).

I know, but for some reason its acceptable to mock someone by saying they look French.
Where as if they had said he looks Jewish it would be all over the papers.

That's what you call thoughtful bigotry
 
Make up your mind please.

You believe Bush is not the one in charge and doesn't know jack.
Fine.

Then how did Bush cause any problems if he doesn't know jack and isn't really in charge?

How is a know-nothing puppet President going to destroy the world? Huge leap there! And Bush the Cowboy caused 9/11 and whatever job losses you are speaking of? I thought he was only the President in name, and Cheney was the true leader of the right wing assault on the left.

a little jelous I see. It's not like Mrs. Bush has done a damn thing in 4 years
This one leaves me almost typeless. Mrs. Bush, whatever she has or has not done in the last four years, reflects on the American electorate how? I don't recall her being elected for anything. WTF have you done in the last damn four years?? Oh thats right, you probably posted comments worldwide on the web without first thinking about how absolutely idiotic you appear to at least half of thinking adults.

No need to be bitter about it, just concede it if you can't argue it.

I'm thinking Operaider meant the Bush administration caused the problems.

If you're going to turn someone's argument around on them, do it right.

Me, I don't know either way. But if we did have a Prez who knew absolutely nothing about the world, and also had control of one of the world's largest militaries and weapons stockpiles, and had the responsibility to keep angry Muslim fundamentalists from attacking, I'd say we would be in deep sh!t. With those kinds of responsibilities and dangers, if he didn't keep up on current events it would be easy for him to screw everything up.

Has Bush started reading newspapers yet, by the way?

I guess we should ask you what you have done in the last four years as well. Oh that's right, you're posting comments on the worldwide web, how silly of me.

Honestly, I really like Mrs. Heinz-Kerry. She's outspoken and direct, and I like that. I'm that way myself.

Nothing wrong with direct honesty.
 
The really bright side of this: after the 4 years are over, Democrats will rule for the next 40 years.

The cognitive dissonance of Bush supporters never ceases to amaze me. How is it, exactly, that you can rationalize saying something like "Maybe the left will stop spewing so much hate" in the middle of a post where you call Kerry "mr war hero," his wife an "arrogant, pompous, condescending b----," their daughters the "Mr. Ed daughters," and people like Franken and Janeane Garofalo "idiots?"

Kinda like how Bush talks about "ending the politics of fear" while at the same time his campaign is telling people that voting for Kerry is inviting more terrorist attacks.

You put it better than me. I would add the whole attack on gay marriage as well. That was based purely on hatred.

Like catching bin Laden?


#2: Has picked up the economy.

The record debt? The deficit?


#3: Is a strong, fearless and intelligent Christian President.

He seemed to be a little fearful of testifying before the 911 Commission. I wonder why?


#4: Will fight for the rights of unborn citizens.

Not really in his power to overturn a Supreme Court decision, so he can say all he wants about it, in the confidence he won't have to do anything himself.


#5: Will combat the forces of secularism and the materialistic agenda.

Yes, heaven knows the wealthy Bush is no materialist.


#6: Will bring Christianity and faith in The Lord Jesus Christ back into our society.

Not part of his job.


#7: Will stop homosexuals from terrorizing the sanctity of marriage.

How exactly do homosexuals "terrorize" marriage?


#8: Has freed nations from terror.
Yes, Iraq is such an idyllic place these days. Minutes go by without a bomb going off and killing civilians.


#9: Has brought strong Christian morals into our government.

Yes, like Cheney's "go f yourself" outburst. Very Christian.


#10: Will never put our security in the hands of foreign nations.
Which is very evident, by the fact that he seems to excel in irritating all the other nations as much as possible.

1) War Hero--Kerry built his campaign on something that he did 30 years ago. While I respect his service, it's irrelevant to the problems of today. His 'heroism' is also obviously in dispute by the very men who he served with. Since he brought it up, it's fair game, is it not? Did you notice that he didn't run on his record in the Senate?

2) arrogant, pompous wife--I have seen nothing to show that this is not true. I think she would have been an absolutely atrocious first lady. It's my opinion of her. If you don't like that, oh well.

3) Mr Ed Daughters--it's a joke, son.

4) Garfalo is an idiot--have you ever listened to her radio show? If you have, you know she's an idiot. She's also very disrespectful and full of hate towards anyone of differing opinion. But if you listened to what she says, you'd know that. I listen to it sometimes just for the comic relief...she says some funny stuff. The sad part is that I'm of the opinion that the humor is unintended.

I'm trying very hard not to put words in your mouth, but you seem to be implying here that President Bush caused 9/11, and he inherited nothing of it from President Clinton.

If that is the case, please explain this, as this is in contradiction to the facts.

If this is not the case, please explain what you do mean, because I'm unable to follow your point.

As far as the massive job losses, were they not mostly due to 9/11? I know that mine was.

It just seems to me that this issue is a little more complex than you wish to make it seem.

Thanks.

Last I checked, Kissinger was still a free man. As is Orlando Bosch, Osama bin Laden, and countless others.

In what possible way? The Clinton years were banner years in the economic department. Granted, things started to slide before Bush was in office, but he hasn't "picked up" the economy in any meaningful way.


#3: Is a strong, fearless and intelligent Christian President.

Well, except for the "strong," "fearless," and "intelligent" parts, I agree.


#4: Will fight for the rights of unborn citizens.

There's no such thing as an unborn citizen.


#5: Will combat the forces of secularism and the materialistic agenda.

#6: Will bring Christianity and faith in The Lord Jesus Christ back into our society.

Yeah, God forbid people worship--or not--the way they see fit and not the way Glorious Leader wants them to.


#7: Will stop homosexuals from terrorizing the sanctity of marriage.

If your marriage has been terrorized by homosexuals, this strikes me as a problem you need to face on your own.


#8: Has freed nations from terror.

Name one. Unless something miraculous has happened in the past 30 seconds since I checked the news, neither of Bush's little military adventures has freed anyone from terror. If anything, Afghanistan and Iraq are seeing more terrorist attacks than they were before.


#9: Has brought strong Christian morals into our government.

Yes, nothing I like better than paying my tax money to fund someone else's religious views.


#10: Will never put our security in the hands of foreign nations.

Yep. He screwed it up all by himself, no help from Europe required.
