I can personally think of a dozen reasons to vote for Bush, not every single one of them being he's a darn sight better than Kerry, but then I'd just be blasted by the "objective, balanced left" and I have decided that a battle of wits is pointless against unarmed opponents.

Lmao CWFoster!! Good remark at the end. But seriously, you think people (especially around here) are politically biased? I can't imagine...

By the way, I'm with CWFoster here. There are numerous reasons I will (proudly) vote for Bush again. I'll refrain from posting any though, I'm not in the mood in hearing why they're all wrong.

Sorry Rick, but each to their own.

I think Rick must think its been too quiet out here... not enough political controversy on Cbid in the past few days.

I generally don't start threads like this but it would be interesting if someone was willing to respond to the challenge and have 3 reasons that could be factually substantiated. Oh and yes you can sure bet I'd enjoy challinging. Perhaps peace and quiet is better for the next couple of weeks whild Bush continues to dig his own hole. For now... I think a good Friday night Fuente is in order

Hey JonR,
Thanks for making me a litle more comfortable, in voting for Kerry, the lesser of two evils. This thread was making me feel like a putz, cause the only reasons, I could think of to vote for Kerry, was he wasn't Bush.
Thanks Brother.

Yo Rick:..."you are your source. your personal reasons are your source". john botox kerry are my three main personal reasons for voting for OUR BELOVED PRESIDENT the HONORABLE GEORGE W. BUSH. I guess only your persnal reasons are good enough, huh. OBTW why didn't you ask for personal reasons to vote for kerry, afraid there aren't any or just continuing your whining Bush bashing. JonR

Ahhhhh, master Rick, you asked for ONLY 3 reasons?!

1.Architect behind $600 refund of my own money;
2.Apologizes very well and often;
3.Gave us a larger pool of illegals to choose from for our cheap labor (I've hired one myself- thanks);
4.Buttressed & enlarged the Ponzi scheme so that well-to-do retirees can continue to enjoy their social security checks and better prescription benefits;
5.Sent me and my father (retired Navy captain) autograph pictures thanking us for past $$$ support--my dad ripped his up;
6.Enforced 2 INEPT mandatory sources (GSA & NIB) for most Government small purchases, which is going to cost taxpayers MORE;
7.Protects pharmaceutical companies against "unwarranted" lawsuits when they poison our babies with inoculations laden with mercury;
8.Giving trial lawyers a free ride by not pushing tort reform;
9.Good at initially killing muslim terrorists abroad--just doen't know what to do next;
10.Agonizingly charming when he tries to form cogent thoughts--amazing for a man with degree$$$ from Harvard and Yale.

Hope this helps, Master Rick.

Now, is there anyone that you want your mindless denizens of the Idiotworld to attack next before we scurry back to our caves?
Fart once for CW and twice for JonR. Three times & we'll just assume that you had broccoli.

BTW, JonR, there's no way to confirm the 2nd batch of botox injections--his ass cheeks are covered.

yes your personal reasons are your source, but i don't believe you understand the premise. you gave a reason not to vote for kerry 3 times, because of his name apparently.

let me give you an example. let's assume you drive a ford. if i asked you why that particular brand and you said chevy, chevy, chevy, i still wouldn't know why you you drive a ford.

incidently, i asked about why a person would vote for bush, because, i thought i might get some positive answers. if i had wanted input about kerry or truman, i would have asked about them.

so far no one has mentioned any reason, which i find strange, considering this board appears to have many bush supporters.

1. First and foremost, 9/11 and the war against terror and countries that sponsor, support, and harbor terrorists. John F'ing Kerry is going to fly around the world apologizing to the nations we offended with our unilateral approach to freeing Iraq. These same nations who clearly were "bought off" with oil contracts and the oil for food program... This includes but certainly is not limited to top UN officials who decried our actions...

2. The economy. After Bush inherited the Clinton Gore recession, 9/11, stock market scandals, etc... He took decisive actions and implemented "across the board" tax cuts. I know that chaps the a$$es of many libs on this board, oh you're just giving money to the rich. NEWSFLASH!
2.1 None of your a$$s was ever employed by anyone poor.
2.2 The "rich" pay almost all of the taxes in this country.
2.3 The tax cuts have stimulated the economy like it or not. All indicators are on the hard upswing so it's working.
2.4 If John F'ing Kerry gets in office, he will repeal the cuts and give even more to those who currently don't pay taxes and he will take more people off of the Federal tax role which will increase his constituents. The illusion of his largess is redistribution, rob from the rich, give to the middle class until there are no rich no more. That's not what this country was founded on. It was founded on freedom and yes, that means freedom to make, save, and invest YOUR OWN F'ING MONEY!

3. If Bush gets his second term, he won't be concerned about being re-elected. This idea seems to dominate what would otherwise be rational decision making at times. Perhaps we'll see a more fiscally conservative side of our president in his second term because he won't have to worry about the left and Peter F’ing Jennings lining up to gang bang him on ABC world news tonight at the end of each day.

Me too! I see that the liberal left has chosen to take my name in vain in spite of the restraint I've shown.OK here goes...
1)Respect- after eight years of Clinton and his disdain for those stupid enough to make the commitment HE avoided, I see George W. Bush board Marine 1 and then debark, because he forgot to return the salute of a marine he WASN"T REQUIRED TO RETURN THE SALUTE OF! Just because he thinks the young mans commitment rates it!
2)Commitment- He said within days of 9/11, that this was going to be a long haul. He said that we might not see the end of it, but our children or grandchildren might. In spite of the left constantly carping about exit strategy, and cost, and the inconvenience at the airport, he is staying the course!
3)Courage- He hasn't sold out what he beleives to be the right thing to do, just because John Kerry, Ted Kennedy, Hillary Clinton, and RICKAMAVEN think he's wrong (as if he could POSSIBLY do something they would give him any respect for!)

There's your three reasons! Now can YOU give me one reason to vote for Kerry besides the fact that he's not Bush?

I have been trying (operative word) to stay out of the political debates lately. I see them as banging our heads on a wall. We aren't going to convert anyone with our opinions or any facts we may post. People think the way they think.

As I said in another thread, I have no hope of converting Rick, or DB, or Homebrew. I can only hope to sway the fence sitters out there who haven't made up their minds, and have no solid opinions yet to post. If I say nothing, the other side wins by default, and if all that has happened in the past four years is for nothing, then let it be because people are stuipid, and not because they were simply ignorant.

(continued from my previous post--I'm sorry you brought it up Rick)

11.Poses reel purty as a USAF pilot, while he cuts VA benefits;
12.Imitates & gives preferential treatment to corporations. His greedy puppetmasters have taught Pinochio well. Who's getting the bulk of the Government contracts & where's the oil $$$ going? It's going into a protected account for the ungrateful Iraquis, while WE pay for the stinkin' war!
BTW, last I heard, it was SMALL BUSINESSES (100 employees or less) who were paying MOST of the taxes AND employing the MOST people--NOT the filthy, monopolistic corporations that worship the bottom line and who couldn't give a damn about their employees OR their country!!!!!

As an EX John Bircher, Goldwater Republican, "Friend of Dan Quayle", I am alarmed and ASHAMED by the choice of 3 losers before us. This country is headed in the wrong direction. If this man is re-elected, he will pursue a far more dangerous road due to his lack of judgement (research his business bio), and his muddled-headed thinking which tends to be guided by his corporate cronies.

Despite what dubya thinks, this country was NOT founded by business monopolies AND open borders.

I hope to to sway the "fence sitters" into not voting...

There is NO ONE out there for us until we get an honest American who understands the true American spirit which fomented the entrepreneur NOT the entrePOORneur (thanks buddha),and that "patriotic" corporations cannot "outsource" to developing countries just to increase their profit margins!

Yo Rick: My main three reasons for voting for G.W.Bush are...1) john kerry and what he stands for... 2) john kerry and what he dosen't stand for...and 3) john kerry and the flip flopping he does between the things he stands for and the things he dosen't stand for. Your analogy about chevys and fords makes no sense to me as I own an Acura Integra SE. Also..."incidently, i asked about why a person would vote for bush, because, i thought i might get some positive answers. if i had wanted input about kerry or truman, i would have asked about them." are you actually comparing kerry to Harry S. Truman, when I read that sentence I almost peed myself as I was laughing so hard. JonR

Hummm,

I will vote for democrats or republicans as long as they are honest in there beliefs and "make since"...

"I did not have sex with that woman."

"I didn't throw my medals away."

"I don't own an SUV, my wife does."

While I don't agree with everything the Republicans believe, I haven't found a Democrat that I felt had "ethics". At least Bush says what he believes and does it. I am not religious or "rightest", but I respect honesty in any form.

Cheers

no, i was not comparing kerry to anyone. i just liked the movie.

let me fix my analogy for you, you seem too literal to deal with it as is.

if i asked you why you own an acura, and you told me why you didn't own a kaiser, i still would not know why you own an acura.

kaisers were made a few years ago. the paint faded on the way home from the dealership. the car was a piece of junk.

for some reason kaiser, former builder of liberty ships, whose decks were known to split, went out of the car business in a few years.

Rick,Rick,Rick; First of all Kaiser automobile also makers of the Henry J automobile went out of business in 1955 not as you said a few years ago. Second I already told you I own an Acura. Why would I tell you I don't own a Kaiser, if I was going to tell you I don't own an automobile it would be a BMW or a Corvette not a crappy Kaiser, think class Rick. OBTW something for you to try next time, before you type or speak try to get your facts straight I know it's hard for you to do ( all those apologises tsh tsh ) but I have faith in you little buddy.

you've missed the point twice. instead of telling me why you will vote for little w, you gave the answer that you wouldn't vote for kerry. i can't make the analogy any clearer.

1955 was a few years ago. i believe i was either stationed on guam or had just returned to the states.

now if you want to talk about a long time ago, in 1949 i owned my first car, a 1930 model A that cost me $100.00. it came equiped with a crank start.

the kaisers had a self start as i recall. i used to drive my old man's buick roadmaster when i had the chance until he found "pecker tracks" on the back seat and i had to use my own car after that.

i'll see if i can find a picture of a roadmaster and post it for you.

Hey JonR,
Just wanted to remind you, I AM NOT LIBERAL. I voted for GWB, the first time around, but he is ruining the country. We are about to see the highest inflation, since Nixon. Any savings, on taxes, will be eaten up, with the devalued dollar.

If want to give your cigar allowance to the government vote for Kerry. He's never met a tax hike he didn't like.

Three reasons to vote for Bush:
1. Integrity
2. Willing to make tough decisions and STICK to them.
3. He's not an f'ing rich preppy boy from
Tassachusettes. There is no way Kerry can relate to the average guy when he's worth a biilion dollars. Bush works on his own ranch and gets his hands dirty. Kerry spends $1000 to have his hair dresser flown i to comb his hair.

If you've seen the crazy ass judicial decisions that have recently come down and you like it then vote for Kerry so we can have more idiotic liberal judges.

Rick,

I've given this some thought, and although I will not vote for w, I try to be objective with these types of questions. So I thought what were his strong suits that others would say. So here it goes:

1) He says he is going to do something and he sets out to do it irregardless.

2) He has created believers of his tax cuts and their effectiveness.

3) His use of the military is a boon for hawks.

1) His fiscal policies have stimulated the economy and brought us out of recession. (I see proof of this daily. I am an insurance worker's compensation auditor and see at least 30 company payrolls per week).

2) He has balls. He doesn't allow other country's to dictate what our policy should be. He seeks their cooperations, approval and involvement... but if he feels the country's best interest is served in acting in a unilateral manner, he does so.

3) He proudly admits that he owns motor vehicles... something his competition seems to have trouble with. ;)

if i may respond? thanks you

1. integrity? have your forgotten the man who owned a very small piece of the texas rangers and through political influence got the city to condem property where the real owners wanted to build the stadium. using emminent domain he managed to screw a bunch of people and as his reward was given a "higher pie" when he was bought out.

2. "Willing to make tough decisions and STICK to them." that is sometimes refered to as stubborn, or inability to absorb new input, or in some cases just plain stupid. as i recall he graduated college with a 2.0 GPA. even if he had not lost his license because of at least one dui, he wouldn't qualify for a good student discount on his car insurance.

"3. He's not an f'ing rich preppy boy from
Tassachusettes. There is no way Kerry can relate to the average guy when he's worth a biilion dollars. Bush works on his own ranch and gets his hands dirty. Kerry spends $1000 to have his hair dresser flown i to comb his hair."

when your right, you're right. he is a f'ing preppy boy from New Haven, Connecticut and raised in, well he never had a proper upbringing, so it would be hard to say he was brunged up in Midland and Houston, Texas.

Yo Rick:..."just a minute. does owning a car qualify someone to be a president?"...It is truly amazing that you Rick can remember your first automobile, (a 1930 Model A that you bought in 1949 for a $100.00) but that clown (kerry) who wants to be President can't even remember what type of vehicles he and his immediate family that share his home own in 2004. Maybe because their gas guzzling SUVs, huh. JonR
