Watched the debates today. Gah, don't know who to vote for now. So I'm going to lay it out, even though y'all don't care.
Kerry Pro:
He's not Bush!
His VP doesn't look like he's about to keel over.
He wants out of this war in Iraq.
He isn't currently vilified by people in other countries.
Kerry Con:
He wants a government-run health care system.
He voted for the Iraq war, and now claims he'd never vote for it.
He's never in the Senate.
He's never written a piece of legislation.
He evidently feels that taxing someone 60% of their paycheck is okay.
He wants a 'coalition of nations' and would stick with them, but says he'd never trust a foreign nation with our safety. Huh?
Dances around issues like he's at a ball.
Bush Pro:
Has a strong education stance.
Has a strong anti-illegal alien stance.
Has a decent tax plan.
Good sense of humor.
Bush Con:
Can be such a friggin idiot.
Has a VP that looks like he's going to keel over.
Has mucked up this war. Now, when this war started, we all thought Sadam had WMDs in there. That's what he was trying to do. He hoped to scare the US off by his blustering, 'cause he thought that's why we left him alone last time. He just picked the wrong country to bluster - we weren't exactly calm. Of course, there were no WMDs, but just imagine if Sadam had stayed in power. Eventually, he would have died... and his sons would have been in power. *shudder* Hoooooooowerver. Bush really needs to get his act together and get us out of that country, leaving Iraq stable and self-sufficient. And preferably not taken over by the first warlord to raise his head.

Date: 2004-10-15 01:16 am (UTC)Bush: Is passionate for his wife and children, and shows it sincerely. Stands by what he says, even if he is wrong.
Kerry: Brushed off his wife to talk about his mom, not to diss my mom, but, whenever asked about your WIFE, talk about your WIFE. His answers change constantly...flip-flop (And we're not talking about the shoes) city.
Just my opinion, or, if you want, join my opinion...
VOTE FOR ELROND 2004.

Date: 2004-10-15 01:39 am (UTC)Of course, there is the infamous "internets" on the other side...

Date: 2004-10-15 03:55 pm (UTC)Oh yeah, turns out Canada (who are also our allies last time I checked) didn't know anything about that and don't have enough for themselves, let alone us.)
(no subject)
Date: 2004-10-16 01:02 am (UTC)*snarl/mutter* I want Kerry's wife for president. She seems more level-headed. But of course, that'll never happen.
(no subject)
Date: 2004-10-16 03:41 pm (UTC)Actually that's not a half bad idea. Maybe she can chip in and reduce the Bush deficit. You know there's a reason he "glossed over" her and talked about his mom instead. She's already being cast in a "Devil Woman" light ala Hillary by The Other Side and one can just imagine what sort of "ammunition" he'd have provided them if he'd talked about her at all.
Those people, Rove and co, are absolute monsters.

Date: 2004-10-15 10:04 pm (UTC)A comprehensive look at candidates, issues, PACs etc.
Much more sensible than voting "advice" that comes from people who declare accents "liberal".

Date: 2004-10-16 12:58 am (UTC)(no subject)
Date: 2004-10-16 03:38 pm (UTC)If you visit the candidates' websites, read what they say about their own platforms and skip the propoganda about the other side. Read Bush on Bush and Kerry on Kerry. If you feel aligned with a certain special interest, look up what they have to say about each candidate--this is what's so handy about vote-smart.org.
I'll freely admit that there are things I don't like about Kerry . But there are far more things I despise about the Bush administration. I didn't like them going in and they've had four years to win me over. They've only succeeded in making me hate them even more.
