The problem for our country is 49% do not want what Bush is selling. That has been and is the major problem in America. If Bush moves forward with policies that only satisfy the 51% we are in for a hard four years!

The best snow job is for the people over $50,000 income voting for Bush 56% for Bush and 43% for Kerry. The truth is that the Bush policies do not benefit MOST Americans than earn under $200,000. There were some tax cuts for middle income Americans that have children under 18 or where both adults work (marriage penalty) However, when you consider the totallity of the Bush policies, this economic group is not being helped. First, only the m
WE can not give up! The issues of this campaign will not go away and the American people will need to come to grips with the reality in our nation and the world. We are polarized because of the attitude, "we have won and now we will impose our will on the entire nation" The fact is that 49% do not agree with the policies we are following and the vast majority do not understand the long term outcome of the fiscal policy we are following is financial d
The record of George W is such that he did not deserve another term as President. The job loss, energy costs and our lack of a intelligent energy policy, no action to solve the funding issues of Social Security and Medicare, the lack of funding for some areas of Homeland Defense and education and the deficit that will come back to haunt America with much higher interest expense as far out as the eye can see. Add the way America is looked by the world a
Clinton was a lot closer to the center than Bush.
Bush is a Divider because he failes to meet the needs of anyone that does not agree with him and his associates. He was not elected to be President of the conservatives but All Americans . That includes the moderates (like myself) and the Liberals as well as the conservatives.
Daiwa I pray Bush will put into place the teachings of Jesus, who he professes to turn to for help!
DR. Guy Bush NEVER tired to compermise and move to the center. Everything he and the conservatives have done was what one faction wants. Stay the course is just what Bush will do and the country will suffer and remain divided. Bush lacks the wisdom of someone like Linclon. He is arrogant and self serving. The truth is that most of the people who voted for him will be harmed by his policies. The debt, lack of jobs, energy policy. etc
If Bush wants to follow Jesus, he MUST move toward the center. Time and time again, Jesus told us to love others as yourself. Turning your back on those who need help does not follow the Commandment of Jesus given to ALL Christians, including George W.and his conservative cohorts. He would do well to read, St Luke Chapter 16, verses 20 to 31. That is the one where the rich man and Lazarus, the beggar died. The rich man went to Hell and asked Fathe
The morning after seems to indicate George W. Bush has been re-elected President. Although it may be possible for Senator Kerry to win the popular vote in Ohio and win the Electoral College, it is an uphill battle. It is essential however, to complete the count in Ohio and settle the issue before George W. declares victory! If, after the votes are counte
People are voting for Kerry because of the failure of Bush and his policies. Bush had the advantage of getting his policies inacted into law because the conservatives controlled Congress. Problem is his policies did not benefit the middle income American or the Poor. The debt he is creating will come home to cause problems for all Americans in the form of large increases in the interest we will be required to pay off the top of our tax revenue. Add
I have said in many of by bloggs that Kerry can not start new spending programs (health Care) or change the tax laws without congress. Since the GOP will never allow such changes, taxes and new spending will not change much if at all. Only as a form of compermise will any such changes take place. The Big issue is not to make the tax cuts on for the wealthy permanent! We can not afford that!
First, Kerry will not pass tax increases or new spending as you claim. It is the Congress not the President who makes the laws in our country. The Republicans will not be able to make the tax cuts on he wealthy perminent which will help us move closer to a balanced budget since the GOP will not let Kerry spend this money. If the power remains split as 2011 comes closer, both sides will be required to compermise or the tax rates (all of them) will r
It is growing at almost 1/2 Trillion this year. I can only tell you those are the numbers from President Bush's budget projection. If you add .5 trillion times 4 you get another 2 trillion added to the 7.5 Trillion is close to the Bush projection. The 1/4 trillion number again is the Bush estimate as to what the annual deficit will be as of 2008. When you apply a histioric norm of about 5% to the cost of the national debt we could see betweem

Facts: The reduction in defense started during Bush 41 with Cheney as Sec Def. Clinton continued and expanded the Republican plan to cut military expendatures. Bush campaigned on the fact the Army was Too small. He did nothing to change that is four years while expanding the missions of the military. 60 Minutes this week showed the lack of basic military equipment in the National Guard. Bush sent them into combat WITHO
You got it. If George W. is a looser today, America is the WINNER. If George W. wins today, America is the LOOSER!
Lets look at your three areas. Outsourcing: The major reason why costs are higher in the U.S. is NOT because of legal issues. Our econimic structure is on a footing that has higher costs for labor and the cost to live in America. It is a mature economy and as other nations develop, costs of productuion in those countries increase. We need policies that will help American companies offset some of teh labor cost differences. We n
Bush , if re-elected, will continue with the policies that he has used during the past four years. First, he belives he is right. Second, he is the front for the conservatives in America that have an agenda that they will not change. They do not care that the majority of Americans want something different.

If Kerry broke the law , he would have been charged at the time. Nixon did not like Kerry and would have gone after him had he done anything that was even close to illegel. The issues that we face today are what are important not rehashing 35 years ago. Look at what not providing enough troops in Iraq are doing today--Killing American troops. Today the AP had a article that says 250,000 tons of weapons are missing in Iraq. Bush screwed up big ti
If George W. wins, the bitter feeling will continue, first because Kerry lost and because Bush will most likely continue his policies that only meet the needs of the conservatives. I do not believe Bush has it in him to understand that his views only represent a fraction of the American Public. He has shown during the past four years that he has not acted as "Preside
drmiler If you believe either house of congress controlled by the GOP would pass a rollback of the tax cuts on the wealthy or pass the kerry health plan, you are living in a dream world. The Ads are lies because they say "if Kerry is elected, than taxes will go up and new spending will take place" Not without the GOP changing its spots. The President does not pass laws. What is true is that Kerry would propose such legislation not that by elec
Kerry went to Vietnam Bush hid in Texas during Vietnam Kerry did his duty and Bush disobayed requlations and orders. Although I do not like some of the things Kerry said in 1970-71, he had that right as an American. Remenber the Constitution and there were "some" who did things in Vietnam, that were not right. Our policy was wrong because we did not have the support of the American People nor did we fight the Vitenam War to win.
Our military power is more in the elimination of a opposing force that can be located. Given that condition, no force on earth can withstand our attack. The issue of establishing control of a populated area where many of the population look at you as an invador is another matter. That why the military leadership estimated that it would take 300,000-400,000 boots on the ground to maintain order. Also the fact
