... In george bush's favor.


This shows John Kerry's wishy-washiness again. He humiliated John Edwards for being a rookie. Essentially he called him a n00b. Now he's saying he's ready to be his vice president. John Edwards does seem to be a nice guy, but that doesn't mean I'm going to support him rather than George W. Bush.

Edwards for some reason is popular, though. Kerry made the smart move. I still don't like Edwards.

Virginia, North Carolina, and Tennessee are now in play. George Bush's support of the semiautomatic rifles ban will cost him West Virginia for sure, and Tennessee at this point is leaning towards Kerry for that reason.

Erm.. not just equal rights.. doesnt communism not allow private ownership as well? everything you now own would be the governments..

Pfft, Communism EQUAL RIGHTS my BUTTOCKS!!!

Remember the saying "the rich gets richer and the poor gets poorer"? Well, in the case with Communism, the rich stays rich and the poor stays dirt poor, and the middle class oppresses and manipulates the lower class to try and be rich. If you like that kind of "equality" then by all means, go live in a Communistic country. I speak from experience of living in Vietnam.

Yep, you got it. Because of that there's a lot of bribery and corruption in politics and business.

That's the idea of Communism, sure.

But why would anyone wants to give up wealth and power to be "equal" to those lesser than them?

The poor must hunt for crabs in the water fields to sell 'em for a couple of cents to feed their family, while the rich races in the streets and bribe polices $1000 USD and more if they get caught.

Yup, I read it on the Viet newspaper every other day. Nothing new when you deal with Communists.

That's why I refuse to support anyone who supports Communism, unless they only agree to a certain aspect of it.

Communism isn't all that bad, per se, but there are TOO MANY people who uses it for their own gain. Rotten politicians.

Sorry didn't mean to offend you. I was just trying to say that not all communist beliefs are bad. I don't agree with communist leaders because they are full of bull-poo. and don't follow the communist life-style. I mean those people are greedy.

Yeah. But he thinks he will win the southern states since he has Edwards a person who couldn't even win his own state in the primaries. I think he would've been better off with choosing Sam Nun, Saxby Chambliss(I found outtoday he has prostate cancer), or Max Cleavland(everybody loves a Vietnam veteran who is more experienced also)

Try to be on the receiving end of what's "isn't horrible" and you'll have a different assumption. Of course, then you might like it a little too much since corruption usually bring power and wealth, but I don't know if your conscience will like you too well. Oh I forget, those damn politicians usually don't have a conscience.

I'm sorry, too, for sounding rude. When we talk about Communism, I get hyped up for all the wrong reasons because of my own bad experience with them.

What a cocky son of a gun (excuse me to those Edwards supporters).
