Just thought I'd try to make a poll as biased as the one currently up =)

I do not hate Bush because people who hate Bush are GAY.

I eat up every scrap of Bush's dogma because I am a lazy-minded fool who would rather believe that the Republican party has the answer to everthing in their back pocket then look at facts and make an infomred decision."

I do not hate Bush because people who hate Bush are GAY.

not to mention communist, tax-evading liberals. God, to think that someone might QUESTION the government! HORRORS!

Okay I thought I'd make an actually serious post! *Gasp*

Errr actually no I just realized I can't. I do hate Bush. I just hate him less than Kerry.

I'm totally off topic, (and I know this question has been asked many times before), but why is it that we must always choose between bad and worse? Why not good and better?

Speaking on behalf of lazy minded fools everywhere, I think you're selling us short. We don't vote for the Republicans out of brand loyalty, we vote for Republicans for far worse reasons. For example, Bush's daughters are more attractive than Kerry's. Also, Bush comes before Kerry alphabetically.

Well, I agree with his policies on Gun Control and Capital Punishment ("Don't mess with what works" being the unofficial policy on those.) (Well, besides the Assault Weapons act- I think we still need that one.).

Other than that I lean Democrat (Moderate but loud and arrogant, a rarity. I'll be the first to admit the latter two, also...).

I do not hate Bush because Bush really has no power. He is just a front man for corporate interests and it is the corporate tactics that I hate. I feel sorry for Bush because he was born into teh Bush family and therefore he has no choice but to be a heartless pro-corporate/anti-populist cut-throat as that's what he was raised to do.

Your choices for the poll don't really cover me...

They weren't really supposed to darlin, it's called sarcasm. I was just making a point to whoever posted the choices for the "why do you hate Bush?" poll

Dem your poll is more biased than the one currently up. The poll currently up includes the options "Because he's a moron and retarded *insert stupid, self-absorbed, immature chuckle*" and "Because I'm a geopolitical oracle and my ideas are clearly superior to that of Bush's", which allow the polled to chose between admiting they are arrogant and condescending or admiting they are stupid. Your poll only gives the polled the option of admiting they are stupid.

Why do you hate America so much?

I do not hate Bush.

Having said that:

I really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, don’t like him too much!!!!!

How dare you? George W. Bush is the "Conservative Savior" and "Great Liberator" of mankind from the dark blanket of tyranny and oppression. Our "Dear Leader" will kick hanoi Kerry's traitor ass.

Guess I'm better! Ok, no, seriously - the point is that both polls demonstrate absolutely nothing other than the conservative/liberal view of the other side. This is why us centrists are better. ;-)

Besides, wouldn't "My personal God told him to say this, so therefore it is right" be kind of arrogant?

Why do you hate America so much?

Who? Me? I don't hate America, I'm just making a point about biased polls. Of course, I don't like Bush much as a president, but that doesn't make me un-American (despite what he might say).

Besides, wouldn't "My personal God told him to say this, so therefore it is right" be kind of arrogant?It might if that were a poll option, but please reread what the poll option says.

Since everybody who worships a God worships has their own personal viewpoint on the nature of that God, the option pretty much says "Bush gets his orders from my God..."

Since everybody who worships a God worships has their own personal viewpoint on the nature of that God, the option pretty much says "Bush gets his orders from my God..."and not that the orders are right, but that the person must follow Bush. The two phrasologies are not equivalent. In fact in the poll question it is only implied that the polled agree that Bush recieves orders from the polled's G*d. Nope, your poll is more biased than the one it is based, just face up to it, you believe the only reason people can support Bush is Stupidity. The opposing pollster believes the a person can oppose Bush for Stupidity or Arrogance.

As I originally pointed out, I don't believe that people who support Bush or people who do not support him do it only out of stupidity or arrogance. I was simply making a biased poll that contained the "stereotypes" I either have seen from some people or have heard from others (just like the other guy). If you see some sort of pattern in that, fine - no biggie. Just don't make it out to be a direct point, because it isn't. The entire thread is just a joke anyways.

It was sarcasism, just like your original poll. All of my posts on this thread have been tongue-firmly-in-cheek as I thought your replies were. Now you have to go and take things seriously.

I don't hate Bush because I really don't care about him that much. You have to care about someone first, in order to hate them. I don't know the guy, to start with.

Please show me one thing that Bush has done wrong with undeniable, credible evidence. Then I will disprove it.

For example, Bush's daughters are more attractive than Kerry's. Also, Bush comes before Kerry alphabetically.
I can see Jenna and Barbara as being semi-attractive in a sort of drunken, frat-boy-slut kinda way, but Alexandra and Vanessa have that imperfect rich-girl-next-door vibe going on. So I have to disagree with you.

... and Kerry has five letters to Bush's four. Nyah.

Please show me one thing that Bush has done wrong with undeniable, credible evidence. Then I will disprove it.

Well, this wasn't meant to be a serious thread, but I'll give you this anyways:

http://www.ucsusa.org/global_environment/rsi/page.cfm?pageID=1449

The Union of Concerned Scientists has reported numerous abuses by the Bush administration. Basically, if Bush decides he doesn't like the opinion of a scientific advisor or committee, he just gets rid of them and hires a yes-man with little standing in the scientific community. Most of these focus on environmental issues in which he has done this, but it is also rampant in the biotechnology area. Granted, politics has always *tried* to affect science, but the Bush administration has done this to an unprecedented degree.

So, that's just one of the many things Bush has done wrong.

Bush is in favor of free trade - Kerry is not

Not that I'm voting for either

*waits till this one gets closed too*

I hate George W. Bush because he stole my cat and sacrificed her to Ashtoreth.

:(

Seriously.

:(

You demand undeniable evidence and then you will deny it? You're just 'bout as smart as he is, ain't ya, Sparky?

Bush is not for free trade. Ask any Canadians.

Well, I don't remember the name of the person that reported my thread, but I'm kind of surprised he/she hasn't reported this one. What a hypocrite. So, I took the liberty of doing so. :)

Not that I don't like this thread; I mean, come on, it was just like mine, except opposite views. It's just that I'm kind of angry about mine being censored, so, yeah...

Anyways, I voted for the Kerry being a flip-flopper and Bush never being wrong one, because obviously, based on the facts, it's true. :)

Do I need to repost my link to all the flip flops done by Bush? God forbid Bush is guilty of the exact same thing that you give Kerry such a hard time for.

Wow, did you not catch the sarcasm or something?

Just thought I'd try to make a poll as biased as the one currently up =)
Applause! There's no reason why one would NOT hate Bush anyway. You could have added some real hate options though so I dont have to feel stupid voting for one of the given ones :)

Wow, did you not catch the sarcasm or something?

Sorry, not good at catching sarcasm. Thats why I'm such a staunch supporter of adding a sarcasm key to all existing and future keyboard designs. Would make my life much easier....

What exactly would the sarcasm key look like?

I don't hate Bush because he united the terrorist against America, Created a breeding ground for recruiting troops, stayed true to his woirds about a Uniter of terrorist not a Divider, and made Al-queda the great place it is.
I'm Osama Bin Laden, I approve this message

Lol, okay I got that off Dunesbury a comic but its so true.

You're right, if yours was locked up, this one should be too =) Should I report my own thread? ((How do you report threads anyways??))

i don't hate him for the extensive comedic value of his stupidity. i mean, they even had a serious interview with him and the reporter mentoned how he was riding his bike... and then fell flat on his face.

Well, I went to the moderation forum and reported it, but so far no response except from one person who made some sort of snide comment toward me.

Creating sarcastic polls is fun. I don't understand why anyone would want to close one down in the first place. Of course, now I'm being hypocritical. Oh, well. Maybe I'll call up the Republicans and have them solve everything for me, because I just know they have everything under control, and as a conservative, I'm incapable of making a rational enough decision to solve this matter myself. :D

You post on the "Moderation" board.
