Please go troll another thread. We are comparing Clinton's lies about his affair with an intern, to Foley and his sexual misbehavior. It has nothing to do with Bush, no matter how bad you want it to.

Don't bother with these sheep. Anyone still bitching about Clinton lying about a question he shouldn't even have been asked is a tool.
You really should tone down the rhetoric. Your fellow liberals might be a bit upset, what with their all-encompassing acceptance :laugh:

i am voteing GOP in michigan! because i dont want a damn canadian running my state anymore, because all she and her dem pals have done is loose jobs and remodel there offices(to the tune of millions). she keeps telling us about the " most agressive economic recovery plan" but has yet to make one happen, as the people and jobs keep flowing out of the state like water through the mississippi! (oh, by the way, thats our water) i want someone who is going to run the state like he grew up in it, run it like a business and keep that canadian trash out! (granholm also seems not to mind that canada keeps trucking there trash to our state) Put her out with the rest of the canadian trash!
Sanctity of human life (and urepresented human life at that) is one of the most important issues of our time. If the Republican party dropped sanctity of life issues, then I likely would not vote at all.

Sigh... the saddest thing about American politics today is that it has essentially split solely over an issue of which the federal government has ZERO constitutional jurisdiction. It's a crock. Then both sides dress it up as the most important thing ever so that their partisan faithful vote solely on that issue when there are a multitude of issues which are far more important. IMO, the 2 parties do this to disguise how similar they actually are.

Respectfully, I think you're mistaken if you believe that the Republicans are sincerely interested in overturning Roe v. Wade. As Vic correctly observes, the parties are largely congruent on this issue, and I see no reason to believe that continued Republican control will change the status quo.

I apply this philosophy regardless of partisan affiliation.
I think this election will show that mainstream America is losing faith in both parties. The result IMO will be an overall loss for the Republicans, because they control the federal at this time and thus will (rightly) take the brunt of the people's dissatisfaction, but a meager victory for the Democrats as well. I even think the Dems will face some losses in Democratic strongholds that they have long held power in.
This isn't good guys vs. bad guys here. Perhaps if more of you people lived in a strong Democratic stronghold, as I do, you would see that the Dems are just as corrupt, special interest controlled, and prone to mismanagement as are the Pubs.
I wrote two different senators about the Marriage amendment and I basically got the exact same Democratic Party Line answer back. They could have sent me the same reply.
Mega dittos. Republican is the only way to go. Until they are no longer the right-wing party I'll be voting straight ticket till death do us part.
I dont describe myself as Republican, or Conservative.
Right wing. :thumbsup: Fond of both some neoconservative and paleoconservative views, but mostly neoconservative because I believe the world is best off with us as the dominant power (rather than Islamic Fascism, or China).

Bush is the man for the job. And the Republicans have done as well as possible, given the circumstances. 4.6% unemployment. http://www.bls.gov/ Looks good to me! The economy is right on track and thats the most important thing. Cant feed liberals their free money programs without hard working Republicans to pay for them!
Just what we need right now is socialized healthcare to destroy the USA, mix in a pullout on the War on Terror for even MORE deaths in the mideast (and damage American image and power more than anything else could, yup.. even more than the hated BUSHZORZ) and you have yourself a Democratic/Leftists agenda.
Oh wait, they dont really HAVE an agenda.. not one they want public.. sucks to be a socialist in America.
Doh! The Blame America First, and Hate America Left actually makes a LOT of sense though.
If I were a socialist, taking down the USA would be my main goal to.
PS. Running on a anti-Bush platform wont work. They tried that in '04.
In case you dont remember, Kerry was a miserable failure.
Have a good day!
Everyday PRESIDENT Bush is in office I have a smile on my face. GOD Bless him and God Bless America!

I am a registered independant voter who votes the candidates not the parties. I plan on voting against all incumbents regardless of party. In my mind they're all dirty and the longer they stay in office the dirtier they become.

The Democratic platform is to appease nuclear proliferation as they did in 1994. On that basis alone I cannot vote to spread such policy. My biggest complaint of the Republican party is that they have been too frightened to take the brutal and necessary measures needed to win Iraq, and to kill Iran and North Korea for their blatant war posturing.
Just because the conservatives don?t have the balls to fight the war correctly does not mean I would vote in the true party of doves and appeasers to replace them.
I wish we had more intelligent leaders, I really do, but my view of the ballot box is a choice between bad and worse, then I?m going to grudgingly pick a bad choice knowing it?s the lesser of two evils.
Remember your words. Remember them. In two years, if there's a Democrat elected as the PotUS, I hope you don't change how you feel right now and how bad you percieve the world to be.
abortion!
Nothing gets the nuts out faster than abortion!
If Hitler came back from the dead and were up for election, and he was opposed to abortion, the crackpots and jesus freaks would be out it droves to vote for him.... and these same mental midgets will vote for Bush too.....at any cost.

However, the Democratic voters would vote for him due to his strong gun control. :roll:
Come on. Don't be so immature.

We do we say that people who vote pro-life are nuts? What is wrong with wanting to prevent a baby from being killed before it can be born?
Ps. I am by no means a pro-lifer myself. I am happy with the status quo, althought would like to see partial birth go away and would like to see us put more effort in offering people alternatives to abortion.
Nothing at all, and I'd argue that this isn't a viewpoint monopolized by the pro-life crowd. In fact, I'd argue that many pro-choicers are doing more to help lower the number of abortions than many pro-lifers, who just complain about Roe v. Wade. The pro-life Dems have realized this and are actively working with pro-choice people to help lower the number of abortions in other ways, realizing that fighting Roe v. Wade for 30 years hasn't stopped a single abortion.
What railer was (I assume) saying is that the problem is single-issue pro-life voters (and pro-choice voters for that matter). This is an issue where there is room for all viewpoints in the debate, and while obviously some people feel more strongly one way or another, it seems like the general trend of everyone turning into a screaming, bulgy eyed lunatic over the issue is less than useless. And on the plus side, declining...despite parties that lean either one way or the other, there are many notable Dems and Reps on the "opposite" side of the issue from the majority of their party.
That's probably the best way to have a real impact on the number of abortions...although I hope you realize you're holding the same position as Bill Clinton, who argued that abortions should be "safe, legal and rare"
. Perfectly reasonable, in my opinion, and far more helpful to the issue than pundits screaming at each other about Roe v. Wade.TRENDING THREADS
