As I stated to Johnny, I am not basing my vote on Bush's international reputation. I really feel that the terrorists groups want Kerry in office. I know you don't agree and that's fine, but please don't act like I haven't thought about this. I have -- very long and hard. |

All I'm saying is that, we weren't (and still aren't) any safer with him in the White House. If terrorists truly want to cause problems in this country, or any, they will find the ways and means to do so, no matter who's in the White House. Which returns me to my point... we're no safer with Bush as President, no matter how much he and his administration are hoping & praying that we'll believe we are. Quote:
In these times, it's become a political and social necessity. And, i have to add this... because it remains a sticking point for me... I still don't understand why it's believed that Bush has been so effective in regards to the War On Terror, when we STILL do not have the man who masterminded the attacks on American soil which claimed nearly three thousand lives, and when we STILL haven't dismantled the al-Qaeda. All we've managed to do, is to send them deeper into hiding, while effectively helping them to recruit hundreds of thousands of others to their cause.

Bush is most likely going to win in November, because people... even some otherwise intelligent ones... have become convinced that he's the only one who can "save us." So I think it's time for me to just stop caring. We'll have another four years (and with the extremely conservative Federal and Supreme Court judges that he continues to appoint, God knows how many more years beyond that) of his so-called "morals" and "values," and his agendas, and his ineptitude, and his sneering contempt for the American people. We reap what we sew, so God help us all.

No, we have not caught OBL, but we have dismantled the Taliban and caught several high-ranking al-Qaeda members. I agree that the terrorists will want to attack us no matter who is on office, but I think it would be easier for them under Kerry. JMO |

GypsySorcerer,
The terrorists would much rather Bush be re-elected, because it will continue to fuel anti-American sentiment in the western world. This administration has single-handedly taken all the good will from other countries poured over us on 9/11 and crushed it with its iron fist. Also, if, and that's a VERY big if, Bush is re-elected, he will stay in Iraq indefinitely, and plans to draft young Americans (up to the age 26), male and female, in and out of college, into the military to go fight this ungodly war. If Kerry is elected, his first order of duty should (and more than likely will) be to get America out of Iraq. Completely. The terrorists don't want that. They want us to stay in Iraq so they can continue to kidnap and murder American civilians and soldiers, not to mention the countless Italians, Bulgarians, South Koreans, British, and Frenchmen that they have already murdered. Please don't for a second think that the terrorists would rather have Kerry in office. Because that's not the case. |

The Bush administration has a "vision" of bringing "American-style" Democracy to the Mid-East. That's all fine and well but it wasn't okay with the Muslims who live in the Mid-East. It seems to me that Bush is far more concerned with what goes on in the Mid-East than he is in the United States. The amount of money that is being spent on this war and to "rebuild" Iraq is mind-boggling. It is money that could have been better spent shoring up our national defenses. Remember-the terrorists are determined to strike us on our home soil. So why not increase our nation's defense instead of squandering resources in Iraq? Remember also that 15 of the 19 9/11 hijackers were from Saudia Arabia--not Iraq. So how does invading Iraq make us safer from terrorists attack--obviously Saudia Arabia is a breeding ground for terrorists but the U.S. doesn't have a problem with them. It also doesn't have a problem with the genocide that's going on in the Sudan. They have "bad" men in office there too--so what aren't we doing anything to stop the dictators there too? Could it be that there isn't any oil in the Suddan and Bush & his cronies can't make billions there like they are in Iraq? Oh--and that Osama Bin Laden--where is he anyway? I thought we were going to hunt him down and "smoke him out". So why did Bush & Co. wait two months to invade Afghanistan and then only send a handful of troops to do so? That doesn't seem to me to indicate an administration which was determined to hunt down and capture terrorists--particuarly one they knew had masterminded the 9/11 attacks. Instead, this administration had already begun their plans to invade Iraq. |

To answer the original question, getting rid of the unelected fraud is my number one priority this election season. Without that, I fear our republic will meet it's demise. |

The whole Iraqi fiasco is a personal vendetta by the Bush family against Saddam Hussein.
The terrorist attacks on the US ALSO stems from a personal vendetta of Osama Bin Laden against the Bush family in particular and the US in general BECAUSE of the Bush family. You have to remember that Daddy Bush was the head of the CIA under Nixon & Ford...then, even though was Vice President under Reagan, but IMEO, was actually pulling MOST of the strings for more than two terms...from about Reagan's second year in office when his Alzheimer's was starting to kick in, to ALL of Reagan's second term, and then four years of his own term. THAT's where this whole Middle East/"New World Order" started. Then you get Dubya put in office by, what? Election fraud in the state governed by whom? His own damned brother. Gore had the popular votes...we're being governed by a rogue administration. We ALL should be VERY, VERY, VERY scared that Bush doesn't get in for another term. I think we'll learn to empathize with those folks in the Eastern bloc countries of the '50's & '60's. Facism needs to be stamped out...stamped out NOW. And, for those of you who think Nader's an alternative...guess who's secretly financing Nader's campaign...Bush supporters. So, it is not just Democratic propaganda that "A Vote For Nader Is A Vote For Bush".

How many times did foreign terrorists attack us on American soil before Bush became president? Once: The bombing at the World Trade Center, in 1993. (The involvement of foreign terrorists hasn't been proven or disproven in the bombing at the Murrah Building in Oklahoma City, in 1995, so for the sake of argument, I'm not going to include that as an example of terrorism from a foreign source.) So... considering that terrorism from a foreign source and occurring on American soil, has always been extremely rare, is it really that impressive that we haven't had another terrorist attack since 9/11? Food for thought.

Admittedly, I'm frustrated and exasperated by the notion that Bush is doing such an effective job in regards to protecting us, and that he's the only candidate who can... and I let that get the better of me.
