Reply to Awarding the final debate to Bush? in Politics JoeUser Forums

Jamie, the first poll taken immediately after the third and final presidential debate (CNN/Gallup/USA Today) shows that Kerry has won by more than 10% points. The poll numbers were announced during "Larry King Live" post debate coverage. You may not be able to find this poll on Gallup's website immediately because CNN has a contract with them for certain polling so CNN gets to announce certain Gallup poll results before anyone else.

Reply to I may not be John Kerry, but I Approve this Message in Politics JoeUser Forums

They don't like John Kerry for the sheer fact that he is the opposition. Some of these people would dislike god himself if he ran against Bush! You can't try to convince the closed mind...only the ones that are open. While there may be no proof that Bush had foreknowledge of the 9/11 attacks...there are plenty of serious and legitimate questions about this that remain to be unanswered as these questions were beyond the scope of the 9/11 C

d3adz0mbie, we are not "afraid" of legitimate discussions on the threats of terrorism nor do we stick our proverbial heads in the sand regarding the real dangers posed by terrorists and/or al Qaeda. What we oppose are the blatant and/or inferred fear mongering tactics by Bush/Cheney in this campaign to get voters scared shitless of voting for anyone other than themselves. Now don't get me wrong, I know that the Dems have their own standard fear tactics to shore up votes, but it just seems to me

Reply to Economist Poll: Most Economists Prefer Kerry Economic Plan in Politics JoeUser Forums

At the risk of repeating a sound-bite, 4 more years of Bush is 4 more years of the same wrong-headed policies. Could you imagine the screams coming from the right if this were say, Clinton's economic record with a Democratic controlled House and Senate? I agree with CripE, there are a lot of fiscal conservatives in Congress who are going through the roof over Bush's spending frenzy while simultaneously cutting taxes, being at war, and running up reco

Reply to Something Cheney would prefer we do not know...... in Politics JoeUser Forums

Drmiller, "Wrong answer jerk" fits right up there with your other standard post response: "ca-ca." And my other personal favorite: "You on the otherhand NEVER have a good thing to say about President Bush." I have yet to see you say anything good about Kerry or Democrats in general and when you really don't have a substantive argument to present, you try to bully the writer into silence via intimidation. Example: the fir

Reply to News Report: American Troops Execute 35 Iraqi Guards in Politics JoeUser Forums

Blogic, thanks for making this news available on the blog site. Despite all the negative feedback...don't get discouraged. There are people here with an open mind and a vocabulary that goes beyond "ca-ca." A lot more people read these blogs than the ones who post responses. It's our duty as citizens to put as much information as possible out there so that people can be truly informed and make their own educated judgments. Keep up the good work! </f

Reply to The American Empire, part.1 in International JoeUser Forums

I thought the whole notion of history was to learn from it's mistakes and not to repeat them? I thought the whole idea behind a "civil society" was to evolve into something better...not to immitate the failures of societies past? But you are right, all empires must fall...the question is what does the world look like when your turn is over? If we only repeat the mistakes of Empires past, have we truly contributed to the advancement of mankind? Whil

Reply to Stem Cell research in Democrat JoeUser Forums

Ziggystyles, what you are experiencing is called a "nuanced" approach to a very complicated issue. Thank God no one is calling you a "flip-fopper" for having the good sense to see that most things in life exist in infinate shades of gray...and that God created all these gray areas. While I respect those who believe that stem cell research is a right-to-life issue, I don't think they have the right to impose their religous views on others especially w

Reply to For all those that thought Saddam was being good. in Politics JoeUser Forums

Maybe if you understood the Security Council process, you would know that the sanctions could not be lifted if the U.S. vetoed. It only takes one veto to kill a resolution no matter how much anyone else cries about it. End of story... And yes, I know that for a fact. Didn't you ever wonder why the Security Council has never been able to force Israel to adhere to the 60 odd resolutions they are in violation of? It's because the U.S. has either threat

Reply to Does my vote count in Politics JoeUser Forums

Wirefree, I think you make some interesting observations about our current political system. To allay your fear that "By the time that California's poles close, half the country has already reported in" I believe that most news agencies have agreed not to predict a winner of the presidential race until all the polls have been closed. Unless, of course the election is such a blow-out before the west coast polls close, that it will make no diference to

Reply to Bush has made the World unsafe with his misguided Policies in Politics JoeUser Forums

Bahu, I think you make a valid point that the Iraq war has made the world less safe and has given other countries an incentive to secure or produce nuclear weapons. Granted that there were enough incentives out there already, but adding to the list of reasons for wanting a nuclear bomb doesn't help to resolve the problem. D3adzOmbie, you are not correct when you say that the Iraqi invasion was legal and I HAVE looked at all the Security Coun

Reply to Bush Should Have No Chance in International JoeUser Forums

Patriot_Flamethrower, resorting to baseless name calling is a true sign that you do not have any winning arguments, based on fact, to make. Your insidious remarks have only lent support to my argument that since you really have nothing substantive to say, you resort to "character assassination" of those who do not share your ideas. Pictoratus, look at Patriot_Flamthrower's post and tell me if this obviously conservative blogger is not eng

Reply to Bush Should Have No Chance in International JoeUser Forums

O G San, I think this is a very insightful article. However, I think there are other reasons why Bush and the GOP in general have been keeping Dems on the defensive. First, they have, thus far, been more media savy and better organized. Secondly, Bush and the GOP in general are very good at character assassination, fact distortion, and then spinning Dem's counterattacks against them while claiming martyr status. Lastly, John Kerry made one huge err

Reply to For all those that thought Saddam was being good. in Politics JoeUser Forums

No one is arguing that Saddam was "good" and you provide no evidence to the contrary. Secondly, unlike your article, which cites a link to a partisan website, other people's articles are based on the ISG report, the Senate Intelligence Committee report, the 9/11 Commission report, as well as mainstream news articles, all of which state that: 1. Iraq posed no imminent threat to the U.S.; 2. Iraq had no connection to 9/11; and 3. Iraq either had no ties
