1 - The economy has improved and grown in the face of terrorism. Manufacturing materials are in short supply because of high demand. True, there are few new jobs, but that is primarily due to productivity improvements resulting from the "computer revolution". There are many American companies that have not been affected by imports because they work smarter not harder. There is still a niche for American know-how.
2 - Will Kerry will cave into the unions and institute more protectionist trade policies that will result in a global trade war?? He seems to be hinting at that ... and history has shown global trade wars usually result in world recession.
3 - Caving in to terrorists and tyrants is not the answer. The job in Iraq needs to be finished. Even France's pacivist ways did not prevent kidnapping of their citizens by terrorists. What ever happened to those two French guys?
4 - Who needs two ambulance chasing lawyers in the White House? Tort reform is needed now. The legal system should not be used as a lottery system. I suppose I could have gone to Madison County, Illinois and sued my doctor for an unsuccessful vasectomy and won a few thousand dollars I would not deserve ...
Yes, Bush is not an ideal candidate, but Kerry stands for nothing. He has done nothing in 19 years in the Senate. Do we want a president who is puppeted by a princess whose papa presented her a pureed tomato plantation?

LMAO!! Good one, man! I needed a good laugh.

So did I!
Please post more reasons why we should vote for Bush!
It is a good thing that you are not old enough to vote.

Great logic Jingles. Why not post a coherent rebuttal?
It's a good thing that you don't even know my age, because I'm actually past the age with the right to vote.
Doesn't surprise me that you're one of those morons who judge based on assumptions and not true facts.
And you call youself wise? I've seen Jessica Simpson show a lot more wisdom than that.

Technically, that's an acronym.
And it still lacks a coherent rebuttal, unless "moron" and "Jessica Simpson" are your idea of debate.
Should I be taking this seriously when Bullwinkle has not given any reason whatsoever to have a decent arguement?
If I remember correctly you are physically over 21, but mentally is another story ...
R-E-M-E-M-B-E-R to push the pin completely through the ballot - or is that too complicated for you?
I am still waiting for a coherent response - or is that beyond your mental capacity?

So now your excuse is that I'm mentally under 21? Didn't seem to sound like that when you first said it. Unless you're able to judge someone's age based on pure mental capacity, which I believe you have a lot, don't you?
You seem to be contradicting yourself by telling me that it's good that I'm not able to vote, and now you're telling me to push the pin completely through the ballot.
Tsk, tsk, tsk... And this comes from the same person who calls Kerry a flip-flopper. Better take a look at the mirror next time, dude.

Where is your coherent response? Trouble is - you have nothing to say, and cannot respond rationally to my contentions.

"Why not post a coherent rebuttal?"
Because there isn't one. You don't have anything to rebutt. It's just random made-up remarks.
Bush rapes chickens..
Rebutt that. See--you can't. It's just too absurd.

Ok, what the hell. I'm bored. I'm pissed of at XP Pro so I need a break.
OK, bull. I'm up for a debate. I'll try and rebutt these and we'll see what we can come up with for a discussion.
"1 - The economy has improved and grown in the face of terrorism."
I'm not sure where you've gotten those statistics. I've seen plenty of statistics lately that show any perceived growth is just that...perceived...not real. Of the jobs that we've gained, a vast majority have been paying less than $13,000 a year.
"True, there are few new jobs, but that is primarily due to productivity improvements resulting from the "computer revolution"."
Again, where you are getting these stats? There are plenty of stats that would say the opposite...that the lack of new jobs is due to a large amount of outsourcing...especially 'computer' jobs.
"There are many American companies that have not been affected by imports because they work smarter not harder."
Such as?...
There are plenty of industries being gutted due to overseas slave labor...lumber, textiles, data entry, etc.
"There is still a niche for American know-how."
But not American hard work? That's my beef with that argument. Leave an elite, wealthy 'brain trust' in the US while outsourcing our labor to slave-conditions overseas, letting the rest here fend for themselves as Wal-Mart cashiers. (OK, that's over dramatized just a tad. ;o)
"2 - Will Kerry will cave into the unions and institute more protectionist trade policies that will result in a global trade war?"
Are you anti-union, bull? If so, then I guess there's no point debating that issue with you.
"Caving in to terrorists and tyrants is not the answer."
Terrorists? No, of course not. Is kerry proposing we cave in? No. Of course not. Is either candidate proposing ways to solve the problem at the root level? I haven't heard much from Bush on that.
Tyrants? We do business with them daily. I know this is a point you disagree with, Bull, but that's what we do. We're a rather fickle country when it comes to business. If it makes us rich, we're OK looking a blind eye once in a while.
"The job in Iraq needs to be finished."
Well, it'd help if we had a defined job to begin with. We don't. There really is no 'finish' in site. Unless by 'finish' you mean hand over our checking accounts to Haliburton.
"Even France's pacivist ways did not prevent kidnapping of their citizens by terrorists."
And our bullying and oppressive dominance has not prevented kidnapping of our citizens by terrorists. Interesting.
"Who needs two ambulance chasing lawyers in the White House?"
Well, calling them ambulance chasers is simply you showing your ignorance of the types of cases they handled.
"Tort reform is needed now."
Define that for me. HOW do you propose we reform it?
"The legal system should not be used as a lottery system."
Nope.
"I suppose I could have gone to Madison County, Illinois and sued my doctor for an unsuccessful vasectomy and won a few thousand dollars I would not deserve ..."
You can sue for anything you want to. That's how our system works. It's not perfect. I'm open to hearing alternatives. Denying people the right to hold others accountable is not one of them, though.
"Yes, Bush is not an ideal candidate, but Kerry stands for nothing."
Kerry Stands for a bit more than Bush. I'll admit that we don't have a great selection of options here. I do feel that Kerry is much more supportive of our military. Bush has gutted it. Kerry is at least talking about doing something with our healthcare system. Bush's plan is the smallest proposed plan in some 30 years.
Kerry seems to have a stance on protecting the Environment. He's not a green candidate, by any means, but, granted, compared to Bush, anyone is a tree hugger.
