GFY TEST VOTE: Bush or Kerry?

it's scary to think there are adult webmasters voting for bush

"I'm not allowed to vote, I'm not an US citizen"

God is my buddy so I'll ask him if I can vote since I'm sexy and skinny.

I thought Lens is voting for him. Or did he changed his opinion again?

you have to vote Kerry if you value your business....

or freedom, or peace, or a $ that's worth a $, or....

Can you imagine? Having more than just one issue that they base their vote on? Weird!

I wonder if the USD will be really worth more if Kerry wins.

I hope so! But I don't believe that an election has the power to make a complete turn around. It's up to the markets.

thats awesome, if it does happen

not if he wins, but if he has people who are better with money... then yes.

Let's face it... putting 80+ billion dollars into sending kids to their death in Iraq... that's not good for the economy.

Kerry duh

sorry....please show me how this is bad for the economy? Where do you think the money is spent exactly?

and if the dollar goes up, that will NOT be the best thing for the US economy.

Have you taken any courses or read any books on economics at all?

just wondering...

IF YOU THINK KERRY IS GOING TO PROTECT YOUR BUSINESS THEN YOU NEED TO THINK AGAIN. A CANDIDATE WILL TELL YOU ANYTHING TO GET ELECTED BUT ONCE IN OFFICE IT ALL BOILS DOWN TO WHAT THE PEOPLE (in our case the bible thumpers) DICTATE TO THEM. LET'S LOOK AT THE REAL ISSUES--

This was written in the Daily Record (Ellensburg's paper) on Wed. Oct. 6, 2004. It was written by Mathew (only one t) Manweller who is a Central Washington University political science professor.

The title of the article was "Election determines fate of nation."

"In that this will be my last column before the presidential election
there will be no sarcasm, no attempts at witty repartee. The topic is too serious, and the stakes are too high. This November we will vote in the only election during our lifetime that will truly matter. Because America is at a once-in-a-generation
crossroads, more than an election hangs in the balance.
Down one path lies retreat, abdication and a reign of ambivalence. Down the other lies a nation that is aware of its past and accepts the daunting obligation its future demands. If we choose poorly, the consequences will echo through the next 50 years of history.
If we, in a spasm of frustration, turn out the current occupant of
the White House, the message to the world and ourselves will be
twofold. First, we will reject the notion that America can do big
things. Once a nation that tamed a frontier, stood down the Nazis and stood upon the moon, we will announce to the world that bringing democracy to the Middle East is too big of a task for us. But more significantly, we will signal to future presidents that as voters, we are unwilling to tackle difficult challenges, preferring caution to boldness, embracing the mediocrity that has characterized other civilizations.
The defeat of President Bush will send a chilling message to future
presidents who may need to make difficult, yet unpopular decisions.
America has always been a nation that rises to the demands of history regardless of the costs or appeal. If we turn away from that legacy, we turn away from who we are.
Second, we inform every terrorist organization on the globe that the lesson of Somalia was well learned. In Somalia we showed terrorists that you don't need to defeat America on the battlefield when you can defeat them in the newsroom. They learned that a wounded America can become a defeated America. Twenty-four-hour news stations and daily tracing polls will do the heavy lifting, turning a cut into a fatal blow. Except that Iraq is Somalia times 10. The election of John Kerry will serve notice to every terrorist in every cave that the soft underbelly of American power is the timidity of American voters. Terrorists will know that a steady stream of grizzly photos for CNN is all you need to break the will of the American people. Our own self-doubt will take it from there. Bin Laden will recognize that he can topple any American administration without setting foot on the homeland.
It is said that America's W.W.II generation is its 'greatest
generation.' But my greatest fear is that it will become known as America's 'last generation.' Born in the bleakness of the Great Depression and hardened in the fire of WW II, they may be the last American generation that understands the meaning of duty, honor and sacrifice. It is difficult to admit, but I know these terms are spoken with only hollow detachment by many (but not all) in my generation. Too many citizens today mistake 'living in America' as 'being an American.' But America has always been more of an idea than a place. When you sign on, you do more than buy real estate. You accept a set of values and responsibilities.
This November, my generation, which has been absent too long, must grasp the obligation that comes with being an American, or fade into the oblivion they may deserve. I believe that 100 years from now historians will look back at the election of 2004 and see it as the decisive election of our century. Depending on the outcome, they will describe it as the moment America joined the ranks of ordinary nations; or they will describe it as the moment the prodigal sons and daughters of the greatest generation accepted their burden as caretakers of the City on the Hill."

Let the wrong guy into office and we will have no business, and a terror ridden country, do NOT forget 9/11. I am not crazy about Bush either, but I FULLY agree with this article.

I still will pick the lesser of two evils.

So I vote Kerry

A lot of money is going into the US economy, but a lot of dollars are sunk in the Iraqi desert. And the high oil prices are not good for the economy. But it is true, a war is responsible for a boom.

Read books? Uhm.. yeah, it was part of the course I took in college.

You?

If bush gets relected again AlQaeda has reached on of their main goals and defeated america again. you wil have an president who tells you for the next 4 years how much you are in danger and can based on this fear do whatever he wants to support his tax cuts for the rich, the billion dollar spending for the military and so on, but no child will left behind...

There are so many credible reports out there that Bush knew before 9/11 and hadn't acted. Isn't it better to prevent then to revenge? But Bush is the strong and forseeing President america needs. What has he achieved in his war against terror in the last two years?

Went to Afghanistan and Bin Laden is still on the run...
Went to Irak and lied to the Americans about the Weapons of Mass Destruction.
Wasn't able to stabilize Irak in a normal amount of time so still american soldiers are dying down there...

Yes and this great "war" president will be the one who is able to protect the american Citizens?

Kermit from the Muppet Show would have done a better job.

yeah, i can imagine. if it's what you do for a living you don't want anyone to fuck with it. what's a fucking tax break going to give you if what you do is illegal anyway?

I'm pretty sure he said he was voting for Kerry, all the "changing his mind" shit after the debates was just to fuck with the stupid people. Do you seriously think someone as smart and successful in this business as Lensman would vote to put himself out of business?

WebHead, go play dominoes with your marielitos friends...

I'm not in the US but I'd vote for Kerry....

KERRY!

kerry

I think anyone who hasn't been subjected to the US propaganda campaign agrees with you. Besides Iran.

"I'm not allowed to vote, I'm not an US citizen"

And who will decide at the end about the winner? The court again?

prob. the 1s that are enjoying the tax cuts
my buddy makes 2MIL/year, loves bush

Yeah no kidding!!! Im surprised at that at well!

To every Bush-Supporter:
Please watch Fahrenheit 9/11 NOW!

"I'm not allowed to vote, I'm not an US citizen"
But my opinion is that bouth of them really sux!

I'm not allowed to vote, I'm not an US citizen

That's only if there's a problem. If it's a tie Congress will decide.
