Okay, even though I'm voting for Kerry (lesser of two evils thing: A VOTE FOR NADER IS A VOTE FOR BUSH) Both sides are pissing me off in the general running of the campaign.

Both sides:
Shut the hell up about political records. (now, you can argue the republicans aren't talking about this, but their supporters certainly are) I mean, I don't care if Bush is a draft-dodger, if I had been around back then, and my dad had all the clout Bush's father had. I would have done the same thing. Kerry, I honestly don't care if you're a war hero or not, your political record is enough for me to perfer you over Bush, so focus on that. Isn't that the entire purpose of non-negative campaigning? To actually focus on the things that MATTER. Also, to the swift boat vets. You must be some severe badasses, I mean your getting shot at from all sides and you actually had enough sense of mind to actually know exactly what a man 30 yards away on another boat was doing.

Republicans:
Can you talk about anything OTHER than the war on terror. Every second sentence out of your mouth is about the war on terror. Stop exploiting national travesty for political gain. And yes, you 'liberated' Afganistan and Iraq, but those are just nice little positive side effects to your real purpose. Yes, you caught Hussein, but your own investigation proved that he didn't have shit to do with shit. So where the hell is Bin Laden, I mean we actually KNOW he did something, but we seem to have totally forgotten about him.
Btw, next time I hear 'no child left behind' I will tear out your throats. My mother is a school teacher, and the policy is utter shit. You raise standards without increasing funding. Also, it puts all the responsibility on the teachers. Everyone who's attended a Cub Scout meeting knows that all child activities (including Education) are a partnership between Adult Leaders (or teachers in this case), Children, and Parents. Thats right, teachers can't do shit if the child refuses to learn, and the parents are unwilling to help in any way, and actually encourage the ignorance that plagues our society. Look, just check out my little nation, You'll notice that I don't care about fucking taxes, as long as I get good shit out of it. If it means better education, free healthcare, better everything, go ahead and raise taxes, just don't do it for the sole purpose of military spending.

Democrats:
You're the ones who insist non-negative campaigning in order to focus on the issues, so why the hell aren't you focusing on the issues? If you stuck to your issues you'd never loose. That is your opponents greatest strength as well as their biggest weakness. They stick to their guns, no matter how many people prove them wrong, they keep going right on ahead. Grow a fucking backbone and you'd kick there asses from here to the moon.

Couldn't have said it better myself!

Oh yeah, one more thing (and don't be offended, it's standard in these situations): Will you have my children?

Okay, even though I'm voting for Kerry (lesser of two evils thing: A VOTE FOR NADER IS A VOTE FOR BUSH) A vote for Kerry is a vote for the continuation of the political system that spawned Bush.

Heh, I saw a televised debate in Ohio on CNN. Once the Republican mentioned it, it looked like the audience really was going to rip his throats out.

A vote for Kerry is a vote for the continuation of the political system that spawned Bush.
That's the best thing you've ever posted. I'm going to use that.

Aren't campaigns wonderful? But don't worry when this one ends. It'll be back in four more years.

Depends, are you female and hot?

A vote for Bush is a vote for Bush.
A vote for Nader is a vote for Green Party Policies or a vote for Hell on Earth, which ever description you want to roll with.

Shut the hell up about political records.
Not to be bitchy, but I think you mean "war records".

I would have done the same thing. Kerry, I honestly don't care if you're a war hero or not, your political record is enough for me to perfer you over Bush
I am sure that John Kerry is, at this moment, saying "Whew, that was close. We got the Leetonia vote, we're saved!"

I mean, I don't care if Bush is a draft-dodger
Bill Clinton was a draft dodger, Bush joined the National Guard (or the USAF equivalent). There is a healthy difference. Unless of course you want to say that all members of the National Guard are cowards. In which case I hope that you do so at a Guard meeting and will wish you well on your future recovery.

You must be some severe badasses, I mean your getting shot at from all sides and you actually had enough sense of mind to actually know exactly what a man 30 yards away on another boat was doing.
One might note that some SBV were actually on Kerry's boat.
One might also note that the SBVs claim to have never been "under fire".
One might also note that people can remember alot of things.

And yes, you 'liberated' Afganistan and Iraq, but those are just nice little positive side effects to your real purpose.
The sinister "real purpose." That thing that allows an affirmed hater of anything to dismiss any and all good acts.
"Yes, Dave may have saved all those people, but it was only to further his real purpose."
"And what purpose was that?"
"I don't know, but it was real."

Btw, next time I hear 'no child left behind' I will tear out your throats.
I like it when you talk dirty;)

My mother is a school teacher, and the policy is utter shit. You raise standards without increasing funding. Also, it puts all the responsibility on the teachers.
Oh no! How horrible, horrible, awful, wicked, and mean!
Actual responsibility laid upon teachers!
Vile, evil, disgusting, immoral Republicans.
Deranged perverts who would apply results to actions!

Everyone who's attended a Cub Scout meeting knows that all child activities (including Education) are a partnership between Adult Leaders (or teachers in this case), Children, and Parents.
Cub Scouts is one, maybe two hours a week. School is about 30, quite the difference, no?

Thats right, teachers can't do shit if the child refuses to learn, and the parents are unwilling to help in any way, and actually encourage the ignorance that plagues our society.
Except for the fact that if the kid fails, then they have failed and are punished as such. The parents may have the government looking in on them if their kids make a habit of poor grades and attendance. If a teacher has his/her whole class fail, why should he/she give a flying fuck?

Look, just check out my little nation, You'll notice that I don't care about fucking taxes, as long as I get good shit out of it.
How will adding money to school budgets magically make kids learn?
You still haven't addressed the key issue, you've only thrown money at the problem.

If it means better education, free healthcare, better everything, go ahead and raise taxes, just don't do it for the sole purpose of military spending.
Thats right! Let us all rally now! SAVE THE FREELOADERS!!!!
But oblivion forbid that anyone should want to protect their country.

You're the ones who insist non-negative campaigning in order to focus on the issues, so why the hell aren't you focusing on the issues?
Mayhaps the fact that they don't have any that make sense?
Gay Marriage is about the only place where the DNC position really makes sense, and they only have that one because they have to be the Anti-Republicans.

If you stuck to your issues you'd never loose.
*cough*Dukkakis*cough*

They stick to their guns, no matter how many people prove them wrong, they keep going right on ahead.
One could say that with their continued and irritating insistence on failed policies and social programs, Democrats are readily able to toe the party line despite evidence to the contrary.

Here's a grievance for Independants:

I like the idea of a moderate, yet NADER IS NOT A FRIGGIN ONE!!!

Depends, are you female and hot?
Ummm... No. You see children, it's actually the female that has the children. When a man and a woman really love each other, and they want to- Well, you get the point.

Ummm... No. You see children, it's actually the female that has the children.
Not in the movies.


So get crackin'. You can find a way I know you can.

The independent group isn't a party, it's more a lack of one. Nader decided he didn't want to be associated with the Green party this year, so he ran independent.

Not in the movies.

Yeah, but I think I'll have trouble getting Leetonia to volunteer for an experimental utereal implant.

Bah, just contact the fertility goddess or maybe the missionary of love. I’m sure with such an unusual request she will comply.

Two.
