NEW YORK voted for Kerry. New York, obviously the state most impacted by 9/11, obviously would be the most concerned for their safety, the state that would obviously choose the candidate who would be better suited for protecting them...chose Kerry.
That tells you that either 1. New York isn't scared of shit, or that 2. New York knows Bush is a turd, and they'd rather have Kerry leading them than a ****ing turd.
I love my state.

Or that New york is just a democrat state. Which it has always been. How about looking at it as the country was the most effected by 9/11, and together the country decides the president, i mean isnt that the point of voting.
Ahh yes, New York was the state that was directly attacked, and even we don't want Bush in office. That says something, no matter how you look at it.
Sure, the other states can speculate what we went through, but they'll never know what it was like. It was the most ****ed up thing I had ever seen.
And I still want Kerry in office. Bush is a ****tard who doesn't have a clue on what he is doing. Kerry may be a flip-flopper, and a pussy ***** who only does what the people want...BUT THAT'S THE WHOLE ****ING POINT OF A DEMOCRACY. It's what the PEOPLE want.
I agree that New York wouldv'e went to Kerry with or without 9/11. New York is a liberal state, just the way it is.
And I guess I can't say overall whether the war in Iraq will be worth it because it isn't over yet, but I can say that so far, they have already taken the man in question out of power and things don't seem to be getting better and I don't think it was worth it. My opinion is that Bush went into Iraq as a diversion, so people wouldn't say he wasn't doing anything to fight terror. I think he knew he probably wasn't going to be able to capture Bin Laden so he invaded Iraq to compensate for the failure of the war in Afghanistan. That's just my opinion. I can't see any other logical explanation on why he would take us into such a serious war against a country that had nothing to do with 9/11.
saying what the people want to hear and doing what the people want are to totally different things man. Just because new york's state was slated more twords kerry doesnt mean shit. What about the other half that voted for Bush? it isnt a state wide election, it is a nation wide election. bottom lineis that neigther Kerry or Bush is going to do damn thing to make this country better or safer, Kerry will just raise taxes and give us shitty healthcare.
I'm not a Bush supporter, but I'm going to have to disagree there. People seem to forget that when Bush got into office Clinton's economy was already going down the drain, and a year after he was elected the world trade centers blew up. Bush was given a shitty hand of cards when it comes to economy, and the within the last year the economy has been recovering rapidly. You either have to blame Bush for 9/11, or you can't fairly use those numbers. I do think in a way 9/11 could've been prevented if both Bush and Clinton payed a little bit closer attention.
