i totally love you inlonelinessidie. I love your topics they rock! Yes, Kerry promises a lot of stuff and I hope that he can fufill them but we CANNOT have another four yrs. with Bush in office. I think Bush has done a lot of things to handicap Kerry, how "unexpecting".

QUOTE(sugarcultluver @ Oct 1 2004, 5:20 PM) cmon you gotta say that Bush rocks way more!! It's not about who rocks way more or who has more facial expressions when they talk. If that's the case why don't we just give the election to any ol' Joe who can act? No, I care about the issues, and by far Bush and I differ on the issues. |

Kerry's shirt: "Oh yea?! Well you're retarded! Who's president now?!" Bush's shirt: "Oh yea?! Well you're ugly! Who's president now?!" |

Wow, it's hard to think some of the people who have posted actually are the future of america. How can we entrust freedom to people who's only arguement to anything is "he just rocks way better." Come on people, that's disgusting. Further more how can your opinion be taken seriously if you refuse to even spell simple words correctly? I'm sorry does anyone else find this disturbing?

oh my god, you people stop posting!! My respect for any of you has just completely been dropped to zero. How low and ignorant is it to make fun of the way someone looks? Especially when the person may be our future president. Honestly stop wasting everyones time with that garbage. It sounds like a bunch of ten year olds "like oh my god... he look sooo bad in that color!" get to the real issues.

Anyways, I say Kerry won the debate, but Bush isn't a strong debator anyways. Let's wait until they have direct questioning. |

QUOTE(BZbodyboarder84 @ Oct 1 2004, 4:58 PM) Kerry did do a good job of the way he answered the questions....Unless of course you wanted him to do a bad job, then he did a bad job of answering the questions...And if you didn't want him to do a good or bad job, you'll be happy to know that none of his answers we're really his but rather a 3rd parties answers that Mr. Kerry decided to give in response to the questions. If you are offended by 3rd parties...... -Basically what Kerry does on everything, but he did do a pretty good job of answering his questions. Bush I think is very respectable in how he brought forward a personal side of both the canidates by thanking Kerry's daughters for being so kind to his own. I'm a Bush dude all the way because I don't like how Kerry flip-flops on every issue (or the majority of them). Bush stands firm on his resolutions and decisions, where as Kerry wavers to what he thinks the voters wants to here...and in some cases, thats how the political system goes...but don't try to appeal to EVERYONE by switching your opinions more than your suits and ties. I also don't apperciate the way Kerry has attempted to use his service in Vietnam as leverage into his election as president. I, for one, don't believe Vietnam is so far in the past that Americans are ready to talk about it and see it the way Kerry is trying to use it. Yea, movies and TV Shows are great, they're entertainment; but it's just that. We're not ready to come in full contact with the horrors of Vietnam, and unfortunatley a lot of people lost respect for Kerry because of how he is going about his campaigning. Just my opinion. i agree with you. ugh. if i felt like typing a million paragraphs... i would. but i don't have time. |

i just thought it was funny that bush asked to extend the question for a rebuttal but instead stood there and said um, only to come up with a completely inane statement. and yes they need to repeat things to enforce their views, but bush didn't even bother to mix up his words. it was (paraphrasing) "'wrong war wrong time wrong place', how can you follow this guy?" 4 or 5 times over with little variation. kerry won.

QUOTE(inlonelinessidie @ Oct 1 2004, 1:52 PM) Actually if you paid attention to what Kerry was saying, he didn't change his mind. He stated that in fact he did agree that Saddam was a threat, but that the President did the wrong thing by waging war. Not hard to understand. Yep. Kerry's been called inconsistent before, and he needed to change that in this debate. He was totally strong on his points and didn't change his mind. Bush, on the other hand...>< But we can never tell who will, in the end, become president. The interesting thing is, for the past 5 presidential campagins, the politicians who "won" the first debate never became president. A sign? A bad omen? You decide. |

Kerry got a manicure before the debate, while Bush went around visiting the hurricane victims.

QUOTE(kryogenix @ Oct 2 2004, 7:50 AM) Kerry got a manicure before the debate, while Bush went around visiting the hurricane victims. And once again another pointless statement. I don't care who got a manicure or not. Bush most likely went to visit the victims because of PUBLICITY. I care about their views on how to make our country better, but most of you on this forum could careless. All you care about is making fun of how our President or Senator Kerry look, act, and/or stutter. Come on people. |
