The first on is right on. The Democrats lost because all they did was oppose Bush rather than propose alternatives to his plans. One doesn't win an election with opposition alone.

Sadly they almost didn't lose.(The Democrats and their we attack Bush because our canidate has the personality of a dead log)

My God this election was perhaps the saddest joke of all...given that they showed to the average moron popular vote means shit and truly your president is voted in by electoral college.

sadder still very few will remember this fact.

Very true...very true.

This election was a how low can you go?

One side: no personality, no charisma...perhaps a small nuget of intelligence

other: a rock painted up real shiny like

Apparently the rock won...sigh

Bush is not that bad of a guy(dum yes but not bad). It could be worse, we could have had Gore.

Nah... Gore wouldn't be that bad compared to Bush. At least Gore had a functioning brain.

Yeah to bad he was using it to try and remove all the rights we have

More gun laws (laws only work for the people who wish to follow them, last time I checked bad guys do not)
More taxes
less personal freedoms

Last time I checked most of the bad guys aquired their guns from one of two sources:

a) Legal purchase - this would of course be done before they obtain a criminal record.

b) Theft from legal gun owners - which isn't possible if there are no legal gun owners.

More taxes = a budget that actually works.

Less personal freedoms compared to Mr. "Let's take away everyone's rights in the name of national security"?

And let's not forget that Bush is the one who throws away our hard earned cash on that idiotic missle defense program which doesn't work, isn't going to work, and is just going to piss everyone else off. Nor let us forget that Bush's idea of foriegn relations is to whine and carry a big stick. Nor let us forget that Bush is a Gay-bashing, right wing racist loudmouth. While Shep might consider that to be a good thing, I do not.

Too bad he had it firmly lodged up his ass. No wonder he had a stiff neck.

A. Yeah, its alway's better to do away with the peoples right to buy and keep a legal object rather than punish the ones who misuse it. If one guy can't play nicely, then you are all grounded! :roll:

B. See above.

More taxes=balanced budget? Why don't they work on eliminating the billions wasted every year before they ask for more money.

Missile defense? Why not?

Foriegn relations? In the last year, people all over the world have cried out that Bush should not do anything unilaterlly and get the worlds permission to do whatever. So the "go it alone" type guy Bush is just went out and got the worlds permission. Your argument is a non issue, every time detractors say that he wants to go it alone, he goes and asks the UN, or consults with allies, ect... And does he carry a big stick, how many conflict did we get into with the Democratic leader in the last decade? So far the US has only waged war with Afganistan, who housed and supported the people who killed three thousand civilians in NY.

Right wing? Sure. Loudmouth? Where do you get that? Racist? WTF.

A) You think criminals actually purchase all their firearms before obtaining a criminal record? There is a very strong flow of guns on he black market that supplies most of your heavily armed criminals. Heavens also knows that the average citizen shouldn't have the right to own a weapon to defend against those criminals.

B) So the second amendment doesn't exist?

C) More taxes = a balanced budget? Where did you get this silly idea? A balanced budget is a matter of understanding and eliminating unnccesary programs from consideration which tends to be hard when Congressmen are paid to bring pork back to their constituents however the smaller your government the less you have to spend and the elss you have to tax. In this mater Republicans tend to hold the ebst as the less government view is inevitably cheaper, the common Democratic theme is to have the voers pay for social weelfare prgrams...do you want to pay to rehabilitate midwestern farmers who lost 1/4 of their crop but still made money this year?

D) There is a reason why Congress and the Judiciary exists, any Presidnet would probably have taken similair measures to what he did but now they are finally turning the corner and realizing they can't invade the average American's life like they had planned to.

E) Missile Defense, it has worked just not always, it can work, it'll just be expensive, and if used as a defensive measure only is unlikely to precipitate much hate if thoutfully coordinated with a unilaterally disarmament of more of our nuclear weapons.

F) The gay-bashing racists, etc crap: Where'd you get this?

Okay... so my "defense" of Al Gore was toally illogical and irrational. Sometimes I need to be beaten over the head with it. Thank you.
