28. hypocrisy (#1 IMO)
Edited on Wed Aug-18-04 04:11 AM by fujiyama
Ranting about freedom, yet having no problem in restricting any freedom and then claiming it's for national security purposes...or better yet, as long as the freedom doesn't offend their religious sensibilities. Or freedom is good, only if it's in the form of tax cuts!

#2 Greed

"OMG the democrats are going to raise taxes!!!"

religious fanaticism

"Gays will move into my neighborhood and try to convert my kids to their depraved lifestyle"

stupidity

Some people ultimately vote for the stupidest reasons:

"I don't like Kerry's hair"

"Kerry looks too much like the guy from the Adam's family"

"Kerry looks French"

"Kerry's too rich"

"I don't like his wife - she's too foreign. She's too rich. She has an accent"

Bush's BS masculinity

Bush is strong on terror (nevermind he's given Pakistan and SA a free pass on everything and they are the two greatest sponsors of terrorism).

I think I've heard a variation of the above.
