Why did you vote for Bush?
Why did you not vote for him?

(asking out of curiousity.)

Why did you not vote for him?


Because I'm a stupid foreigner with a midget for a leader.

(asking out of curiousity.)
Primarily because Kerry is a lying, amoral, opportunistic sack of shit! :)

And Bush isn't? Need I remind you that they're both politicians? They make their living being lying, amoral, opportunistic sacks of shit.

Why are there always threads like this? Do you people ever get tired of fighting the same argument with each other?

No.

Quick! Somebody mention Libertarians!

ignore eutrusca he is senile

I voted for Badnarik because both candidates were douchebags and both parties are the devil.

There, I joined the soon to be endless debate.

And you love sandwiches. What's your point?

Now that didn't take long....

And you're an agist bigot. So what's your point?

I read your post and decided to throw it in. :)

Im not from USA either, I just can't understand that they elected Bush... Twice!

Because you are not American and things work differently in our country. If you were born and raised here you might have a better understanding why.

Yeah, Must be something in the education system. ;) Which would explain...

I voted Kerry because I like him better than Bush, and thought he'd do a better job. Happy?

I voted for myself because I am the REAL Bush.

I voted for Bush because he was the lesser of 2 evils. And we have no viable third parties in this country.

I voted Cthulhu. I wanted to vote for Greater Evil.

What kind of propaganda do you have then? "Vote for Bush 'cos he is son of the god!"

I may not like the leader of another nation. In fact, I think he is an ass. But, i do not however question the intelligence of the citizens of said nation because i do not live there. I do not know how they do things. I do not know how they think.

There were more issues at hand than morality in the last election. Some people voted for Bush because they hated Kerry more. They may have voted for Bush because they believe in capitalism rather than socialism. Others voted for Kerry because they thought the opposite.

Noone has ever claimed Bush is the Son of Man. Noone even thinks that (unless they are crazy). More people voted for Bush and they had different reasons. Since you live in another country, you might not understand all of the issues. You just hear what you see on CNN. Learn more before you question.

Kerry a socialist? Dont make me laugh. You don't get american candidates that are socialists. Excpet there maybe a couple minor candidates that are, but I dont know.

We call them socialist for lack of a better term. They are not capitalists and they believe in some social policies.

Fair enough, what are liberals then?

Here or there? Past or present?

Current liberals in America would be seen as slightly conservative or moderate in Western European nations. They believe in a mixture of capitalism and socialism. They are also big on certain civil liberties (the conservatives believe in the others) and are into taxation to fund social programs.

Where I come from Liberals refers to the right wing parties - as well as the color blue

It would have made no difference if Kerry was elected, they both believe the same things.

Basically, just slightly different in some aspects. The media makes it seem like two extremes but that is not true.

Never seen CNN. But I'm sorry if I hurt someones feelings.

I didn't vote for him because I disagree with 85% of his platform, 90% of the way he handled the issues he did manage to address at all, and I can't get excited by his public speaking in the slightest, which means I can't imagine him as a good leader, just a puppet for a cadre of unelected DoD officials with unimaginable power, no scruples, and no accountability.

I voted for Kerry because I think hes much better than Bush. Okay? Fair? Good.

Pratically all major UK political parties then.

In reality, the Republican party is not to far away from this. They believe in different civil liberties but the party still uses socialism mixed with capitalism.

I dare say they do, but what socialism does the Rupublican party have that the Democratic party doesn't?

Well, nothing that they alone have but they share some. Republicans will never get rid of social security, welfare, minimum wage laws, and labor laws. They are not the capitalists that the media and liberals make them out to be.
