The Republicans cannot be trusted to run the US Government!

Bush has recently said that the Democrats cannot be trusted to run the government. I ask you, can we trust the Republicans to run the government? The War in Iraq has made terrorism worse, spending has gone out of control, they are allowing child sex predators to prey on young boys in the capital, and it goes on from there.

We can no longer allow the Republicans to make America the laughing stock of the world. We need to make a change before it is too late. To save America, vote Democratic this November!

If this wouldn't be the 10th millionth thread like this it might have been worth reading... But okay, and I hardly think this is the place to ask for votes... Especially not when you consider that everybody here either already thinks logically or is so stubborn that they will vote republican no matter what....

docb77
Actually, I agree that the republicans can't be trusted with the govt. Unfortunately I think that the democrats can be trusted even less. Which means that, barring a meaningful independent running, I will be voting republican this year.

L laughing out loud L!!!




People who don't believe in gay marriage, abortion, being soft on crime, raising taxes, big government, or being considerate to a terrorist will of course vote republican.

People who support such ideas will likely vote democrat.

If you really feel that the republicans have got it wrong, go vote.

And try to get others who are tree-huggin hippies to go vote with you.

(based on 2000 and 2004, you'll just lose because there are more of us, but go on and try if it makes you feel better)

But I can tell you this much:

There are over 100 million evangelical Christians in this country, and over 50% of Americans identify themselves as conservative in values....

and despite whatever recent problems that certain republicans may have had, we will never vote for a Democrat.


Liberals had their time, in the 70's and in the 90's.

People are sick of what they did to our country's values and standards.

What you are seeing now in the modern conservative push in America is the backlash of those mistakes.



Oh, and speaking personally as a Bush republican:


Go f*ck yourself.

How about a Conservative Democrat then or a Liberal Republican!

Liberal doesn't always equal Democrat (mostly it does but not allways) its just that in the US we associate those values with our whopping two party system.

Fishy
I really never got conservatives, what good is staying still in time... Republicans destroy all advancement in civilization for what? Outdated ideals and morales and values that the rest of the world has long ago abandoned because they felt it wasn't right...

If conservatives would always have had the power we would still be living in the Dark Ages where woman were worthless we had slaves and every male in their country would pray 7 times a day beat their wives and stone gays....

Conservatives rule big grin

we need someone who's more towards the middle. the farther left/liberal we get, the more like communism we become. the farther right/conservative we get, the more like a dictatorship or a monarchy we become. i think we need a leader who is dead-center between both democratic and republican ideas. until then, we're never going to have a perfect leader, not that anyone is perfect to begin with...

So even if a Democratic candidate's stand on issues happened to fall more in line with yours than the Republican's, you'd still refuse to vote for the Democrat?

Hey Lana.

That's a fair question.


I can say that in that case, I would definately take a look at what it is the Democrat was advocating and offering as a candidate.


I find it highly unlikely however, that a person in the democratic party would be in-line with conservative values.

You may have one or two that support the war in Iraq (like Hillary Clinton or Lieberman) but won't support pro-life, traditional marriages, etc...

so they aren't really the kind of democrat that I would vote for.

And while I don't speak for all conservative feeling people or even all evangelical Christians, I can say with certainty that nobody who leans that way (that I know) would vote for democrats who don't support their positions, just because 1 or 2 republicans have screwed up.

Finally, an American who knows when a political party is lying. You do know that EVERY single Republican (since WW2) has been pretty much the same? Eisenhower, Reagan, Bush I, Bush II, Ford AND Nixon. Evil moronic militants. And you people STILL vote for them???

I've looked at some of the history in the US and it seems that ever since a Republican has been in power, everything has gone down. (And GWB has the record.)

What the hell did Bill Clinton do that was worse than anything Bush and Cheney did ?

1) Bush sent troops to Iraq; he declared war

3) He is responsible for the deaths of thousands of innocent people in Iraq, AND from United States

4) He sent hundreds of people to Death Row when he was Governor of Texas

I'm just shaking my head as I read those last few posts.

1- Clinton's affair had nothing to do with his ability to govern, but then again, neither did Cheney's hunting accident.

2- I'd still like someone to explain to me how Bush lied. He told us what he believed to be true. Since when is that a lie? He may have been wrong, but I've always thought that lies were deliberate.

3- As far as whether or not Clinton assaulted a woman... Who knows? What is in evidence is that the Lewinsky thing wasn't the only misconduct he was accused of. Shall we list a few, Flowers, That chick with the nose, then outside of the realm of sexual misconduct we have whitewater, and other such stuff.

yeah, I'm still thinking I trust Bush more than Clinton. That said, I wish he'd stop using the stupid "trust me" line, explain his actions once in a while.

I don't quite understand what you're trying to say...It's not a "What if?", it's fact...

"ARTICLE 3. Japan, Germany, and Italy agree to cooperate in their efforts on aforesaid lines. They further undertake to assist one another with all political, economic and military means if one of the Contracting Powers is attacked by a Power at present not involved in the European War or in the Japanese-Chinese conflict.

I shouldn't be surprised that this thread grew so fast, but I am. I haven't read all of the replies, but I want to know what all of you think.

I believe that the Republicans can no longer be trusted to run the USA's government.

I believe that they are more concerned for the rights of the corporations that donate millions to them over the rights of the poor and middle class citizens.

I believe they would keep US troops in Iraq for years rather than admit that it was a mistake to invade it. Almost 3,000 US soldiers have died so far, and it has made terrorism worse, not better. It reminds me of the Vietnam War.

I am very angry about the mistakes that the Bush Administration has done, and the President's refusal to admit those mistakes.

Republicans get far more corporate donations than Democrats.

If you had to pick one party that cared more for Americans, its the Democrats, because they can't rely on donations from evil corporations like oil companies. Lets be practical here.

No, they just get their donations from other corporations. Add Unions and such to that... They don't care about you or me any more than the Republicans. All either party cares about is getting re-elected.

we are governed by special interests. its all corrupt. only oil is worse, since its dangerous and leads to tens of thousands dead per year and potentially global warming. its all corrupt though. all of it. to paint one side as a saint is incredibly naive.

Right you are.

Indeed, add Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clintion, Sen. Kennedy, and Howard Dean to John Kerry and President Clinton.


All voted for the war in Iraq, all thought (just as Bush did) that based on intel provided, Saddam had WMD.


Democrats (and their supporters) crack me up.

Just because you don't like Bush, he is the liar, while the others were just mistaken?

PVS
what cracks me up is the mentallity of a cult follower. they assume that everyone has the same unconditional trust and adoration for the people who claim to represent their side. this is the basis of their arguments, and why they think they 'win' by pointing out any flaw in the other party.

Is a desire for consistency wrong? Either Clinton and Kerry were lying about WMD's too, or you have to give Bush the benefit of the doubt. That doesn't mean you can't say he bungled it, just that if You're not calling other people on the same "lies" you have to give Bush the same pass.

How does it rectify the dem's crimes?

They share just as much blame, since it was the congress that voted to go to war. The president isn't an emperor, or a king, and quite a few of your beloved democratic leaders were behind him 100%.

They were either mistaken, or they are war criminals. You can decide for yourself.

But to say that Bush lied and is some evil-dictator type is pure rubbish.

He said that he believed Saddam had WMD, and that the intel backed it up.

Clinton said he believed it. (weren't there some targeted missile strikes, Clinton's favorite tool, against Baghdad in the mid-late 90's designed to target warehouses and factories believed to be making chemical and biological weapons?)

Many people looked at the faulty intel and believed it.



It seems as though your logic is flawed here PVS.

You: The president lied about the WMD.

Truth: He went off of faulty intel, and the advice of his cabinet.

You: Its all his fault.

Truth: Many democrats supported the war and the WMD theory and the removal of Saddam Hussein. Their votes for it prove this to be true.

You: !!!WRONG!!! Teh prezident is TEH EMPoreR1111 all teh decisions were hiz11 He is teh evil haXxorZ111!!!


no



You don't have to like Bush or his policies, but you have to acknowledge that the War against Al-quieda, the war in Iraq, and now with the passing of this bill, the measures that we use to interrogate suspected terrorists....

were ALL supported by republicans and democrats alike.

And they are representative of many more millions of Americans who agree with them.

You can fight this all you wish, and try to distort the issue from the threats that we face and how we should deal with them, but that's your own affair.

I used to consider you a smart, well-informed debater who was a liberal and a democrat, that took several issues to heart and argued for them.

But now with the direct denial of your sides support/accountability for many of the things you are against, with your total blame for "George W. the King", and comments about GOP supporters being " the dumbass tough-talkers who have wet dreams of being teabag recipiants of the neocon agenda"......

I can't take you seriously.

You aren't an accurate representation of most liberals/democrats, you are part of a small minority that is hurt and angry that things beyond your control haven't gone your way, though most agree that the responses were correct.


And its people like you, with your deliberate denial of the way things are in this world, coupled with a support of abortions, gay marriage, porn, christian-bashing, and fairness to suspected terrorists that keeps people voting Republican.

bush/cheney/rove intentionally leaked the i.d. of an undercover c.i.a. operative in order to keep the wmd myth alive, and the bill passed by congress (another "just trust me" blank check_ was under the condition that all diplomatic means would have to be exhausted before a military strike.

you can kick and cheer for sithsaber all you wish but it simply makes you both wrong. cheering for an imaginary argument with imaginary quotes topped with imaginary truths (congress voting for war/regime change: a lie) does not make you right. it just makes 2 foolish voices instead of 1.

I don't care what their arguments are. I don't cheer for any KMC user with the words "Darth," "Sith," or "Lord" in their username. The overall lack of creativeness in selecting a name allows all their posts to blend together and makes them very easy to ignore.

BlackC@ (formerly BlackC@t) once changed her name to Darth Puke or something of that nature, and I went ballistic. Fortunately, she changed it to BlackC@. whew.

I did not paint the Democrats as saints. They are simply less corrupt than the Republicans. Their policies are less destructive to America and the environment. I will take lying under oath about consensual sex v. destroying the planet anyday.

The Democrats do care more for the average American than the Republicans because they have too. They don't have oil company money to rely on.

Well democrats had the house for a lot longer than the seventies and there were a lot more democrats in the senate in the sixties than in the seventies. So I fail to see how the liberals 'had their time' in the 70's and we are talking about democrats, not even real liberals.

No, they do have the drug companies though, and labor unions, and george soros, let's not forget money from outside the US. Yeah they're really forced to rely on the people. roll eyes (sarcastic)

By the way, the drug companies are making more money than the oil companies. Look it up on Forbes.

PVS
regardless, as i said (and agree in part as you can see by reading back) the problem with oil as a special interest is that it not only leads to deliberate fixing of intelligence pertaining to oil-rich countries who do not play ball, along with the casual turning away from connections between saudi arabia and funding for 9/11, its also preventing us from advancing in alternative fuel and technologies related to. sure bush will give the electric car rhetoric with every campaign speech and state of the union address, but the fact stands that he has nothing to face but profit loss and alienated sponsors if he follows through, so its all just lip service

reminds me of vito corleone hypocritically yet truthfully saying "drugs are a dangerous business". some forms of corruption and crime against the people, however evil, are less destructive than others.

Wrong is right. You keep saying the democrats voted to go to war, all they did was vote to give the President the authority to load the gun, not to fire it. That's a power the president has always had on his own. There is a difference.

It authorized him to use force in he couldn't find a reason not to after consulting the United Nations Security Council. He simply ignored their input and constant protests. That's what began the debate in this country about the relevance of the UN in modern world politics. It wasn't a free ticket to do whatever he wanted, he just acted like it was and sold it to the American people.
