FOR GOD'S SAKE WHY IS THIS SO HARD!??!

[complain jane]

Listening to the news pundits analysts reporters blah blah blah Oh my GOD why is this ELECTION SO FRIGGEN COMPLICATED...

It's so freaken simple....

Bush/Cheney want to say we are safer with them yet the worst terrorist attack in the history of the US happened on their watch

They all but abandoned the capture of the man responsible

They dragged us into an unneccessary war in Iraq based on lies

Are we better off now than we were four years ago?

Well, let's see...

Approx. 3,000 dead Americans on 9/11 under Bush/Cheney's watch

Failure to capture man responsible because resources needlessly shifted away from bin Laden's hunt under Bush/Cheney's watch

Bush says capturing man responsible is not a priority (see http://www.idealog.us/2004/09/bush_flipflop_o.html for quote)

Biggest deficit in US history under Bush/Cheney's watch

1,000 dead American soldiers in Iraq under Bush/Cheney's watch

American people lied to about Iraq under Bush/Cheney's watch

American credibility destroyed under Bush/Cheney's watch

Thousands of Iraqis killed by US-Led Coalition Forces under Bush/Cheney's watch

BUSH DRAGGED THE NATION RECKLESSLY INTO A COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY AND UNJUSTIFIED WAR, COST US THOUSANDS OF LIVES, BILLIONS OF DOLLARS- WHAT FRIGGEN MORE DOES THIS COUNTRY NEED TO REALIZE BUSH IS RUINING OUR COUNTRY?!?

How on EARTH can anyone think we are better off than we were four years ago?! What fucking more do these people NEED?!?

Kerry/Edwards needs to slam Bush with this, and hammer it home into the publics' heads!!

1. Yeah, all that is true, but what about Kerry throwing his medals?

And were they really RIBBONS?

[July]

18. True. And he's orange. And he's taking communion.

And he WINDSURFS!!!!!!!!

/boatloads of sarcasm/

[BlueEyedSon]

20. Not to mention.... "French"...

[Demonaut]

21. and he's "LIBERAL"

[northernsoul]

2. all this thinkin', it's hard work... we're workin' hard at it

y'know... coming in on Weekends... ordering lunch in... stayin' late at the office

[Catfight]

6. Yeah, why waste our beautiful minds thinking about dead people? n/t

[LittleClarkie]

7. Yuh, we don't want to send any "mixed messages"

That would be double plus ungood.

[comsymp]

10. ... but we're getting the job done

nt

[npincus]

16. that was the FUNNIEST thing I've seen in a long time..

next to Bill Maher admonishing Iraqis for putting out their severed heads by the roadside on a Wednesday... didn't they know that Tuesday was severed-head pick-up day? Well, Maher continued, if they wanted to sleep late, they could always roll them out on Monday nite!

I nearly cried from laughing- very black humor, but right on in portraying how the obscene has become routine in this hideously absurd bloddy horrible war.

[CrispyQ]

22. Bush won the debate by not losing.

WTF??????? Do people really fall for this line of bull?

[WilliamPitt]

3. I make in my pants sometimes

[Birthmark]

4. The complication?

The media *need* Bush to win. Otherwise, they might have to work for a living. It's hard work being a journalist...when a Democrat is President. ;)

[CrowNotAngelGRL]

24. LOL

Good line and true. ;)

[kimchi]

5. I don't know why it is so hard--probably brainwashing.

I am trying to talk to some creative people on another board and they are just starry eyed Bush lovers. "But Saddam was BAD" is all they can come up with. Pathetic. It is so sad how misinformed people are. One said that Wilson lied to Congress, one said that Bush got a UN vote--they are just clueless, and believe the spin.

So sad.

[LittleClarkie]

9. Sure Saddam was bad

he was bad when we were cuddling up to him too.

[CTyankee]

15. they're wannabes

I'm now convinced that non-rich, non-right wing evangelical,
non-NRAers, people who work for a living and call themselves
Republicans are just wannabes. They think that if they vote
Republican they will magically become rich. They don't know
what a laugh that gives to the REALLY rich and powerful who
don't give a crap about them (but love taking their votes!)

[newyawker99]

28. Hi CTyankee!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[Politicub]

30. Welcome!

Great first post!!

I don't think there is any logical explanation for the log cabin republicans, though.

Again, welcome!

:toast:

[complain jane]

8. drives me NUTS to hear how stupid the bush supporters are

Not to mention the "undecideds"

[King Coal]

11. Every one of you guys forgot about Poland.

[July]

19. Good one! nt

[leftofthedial]

12. because half of likely voting Murkans

are delusional wack jobs

[high density]

13. KERRY IS GOING TO RAISE YOUR TAXES, ESPECIALLY GAS TAXES

and he'll allow WOMEN TO GET ABORTIONS.

AND WATCH OUT FOR THE GAYS GETTING MARRIED WHEN KERRY IS ELECTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SammyWinstonJack]

23. You forgot

Kerry's gonna ban the Bible. :silly:

[CrowNotAngelGRL]

25. LOL

He's a Christian Catholic and is going to ban the Bible. Sure.... :eyes:

[Wednesdays]

14. Amen...but you're preaching to the choir here...

Go forth and find people with "W '04" sticker on their humvees, and ask them!

[tnlefty]

17. I spoke with a woman yesterday who hadn't totally made up her mind to

vote for Kerry until she heard Edwards FULLY explain that Kerry isn't really for gay marriage!!!! I couldn't believe it. After all of the shit this wrecking crew has dumped and this was her only concern!

I was so worked up that I didn't sleep well last night. Just too many times that my spouse and I encounter these nuts.

[4_Legs_Good]

26. Don't forget that 2003 was the worst for terrorist attacks EVER

even though the Administration tried to say it was an improvement over the previous year.

Kerry should be driving this home!

Global terrorism has INCREASED under George Jr.'s watch.

27. God, Guns, and Gays.

Sadly, this is what the idiots in this country care about. They think them damn lie-brals will be stealing their toy killing machines and will make them fuck men (of course, most of the people afraid of the latter are closet cases themselves).

The ignorance in this nation is deep.

[Mountainman]

29. Damn, I thought you took viagra or something!
