uhhh stem cell research wasnt around 30 years ago MORON ;)

I\'m voting for Bush but I don\'t care who wins.  I know it\'s bad, but I don\'t want to see the jobless tree-hugging liberal type to start rubbing Kerry\'s win in republicans\' faces and to start thnking everything\'s gonna be all fine n dandy now that Bush is out of office (it won\'t), so that\'s my main incentive. :p

To be honest America is a conservative nation.  We don\'t like change and in the big scheme of things these candidates aren\'t that much different.  I find extremists on both sides really boring and useless.

I thought "dumb ass" was either one word or hyphenated :confused:

Hmm..

I think I prefer the position that Australia\'s government is in at the moment.  For the last 8 years we\'ve had an extremely successful government/Prime Minister who, despite some policies many people may have disagreed with (introducing a 10%GST and raising pretty much every other tax to be the top of the list - highest taxing government in our history), have looked after our country and economy (turned a large deficit into a major surplus) extremely well. Now, the opposition finally has an extremely strong leader who looks as though he is seriously in it to make our country a better place and has put forth a lot of strong policies and offering an arguably better alternative.

Plus, with the new found competition, the governments latest budget and policies have been much better (though, mainly if you\'re wealthy..), as they know that they could lose power.  As far as I\'m concerned it\'s win - win.

Not that anyone cares about my little country. :(

lol... I\'ve seen that commercial before.

I heard that Bush didn\'t make out too well with the United Nations a few days ago.  He basically told him that we\'re the most powerful country and just to listen to us.

That\'s great, last thing we need to do is burn our bridges with the UN.  Ya know, it\'s good to have people are our side.

Politicians can be such dumbasses.
