[KMAN]

I took the test and 100% Bush.

I mean really, if you are a man out there and don't like bush, something is wrong with you.

Thanks,
KMAN

 

[Jenna]

Bush all the way, baby.

Even if you're not a man, you should like him.

 

[wilheim]

Sen. John Kerry - D. Mass. Viet Nam vets need to stick together. I know about John McCain, problem is he will never get a chance to run as a Rep. GW stayed in Texas Air National Guard while plenty of guys went to the other side of the world and fought and many died for their country. GW got juiced up to the top of guard list by daddy. Big hero eh.

wil.

 

[radiofreecostarica]

ReElect Nobody.

Voting changes absolutely NOTHING.

if you are a man out there and don't like bush, something is wrong with you.

I would say that if you're really a man, you wouldn't vote Bush. Any man who doesn't serve in the military and then dons a flight suit is not worthy of being called a hypocrite, much less a man.

NO FUKING way I would vote for Dennis - he's not qualified, experienced or respected enough. And I'm not vote for Carol either for the same reasons.

 

[Jazz]

I'm voting for Bush - I said it months ago, no ****ing way I can bring myself to vote for a Democrat.

That's about all I've had worth saying for months. Oh yeah, loved the photo ops for SH's sons.

 

[chonce]

Radio free,
While voting is almost useless, i still think it is worth doing. Go vote for a third party canidate, and hope that maybe in a hundred years or so, this flawed bi-partisan mess we are in will succumb to the need for drastic ideological change. (with an emphasis on resoring our civil liberties) Yeah I know it is naive, and a bit idealistic to think like this, but it is somehing. (although I concur, that after the electorial college, soft money, campaign financing etc...that voting is pretty damn futile)

Sum of our parts? Ive never laughed harder,

[Skyweasel]

Vote for me, I'll clean up this town, er, country, dammit.

 

[johnnie2times]

Any Iraqie will do with the towel waving.

 

[bblight]

Geez, let's add another unbiased question - er, um, let's see:
Vote for the party that wants to be good to everyone and has the best interests of the country at heart and wants everyone to have an apple pie and a smog free automobile - which is the Democrats, or, vote for the very mean and bad party that wants to be selfish and take everything away from everyone and make your children starve while you're working for slave wages in the coal mines and sweat shops that are run by greedy, evil corporations and Nazi sympathizers (the awful Republicans)
