Why im voting for Kerry

[Kdogg21]

this forum gets stranger all the time. cut n paste,mmmm, ok it i believe about 75% is cut n paste, who cares, its INFORMATION. i am actually honored that you call me cut n paste, its shows i can prove my information and provide my information. im begining to think that no matter what kind of information we post we are still going to stick with the canidates we pick. i notice some people get really testy about other's people opinions. than they 'call you out' or 'slam you', or 'your stupid' and 'you can't come up with your own opinions'. well hell this is a gambling forum and thats what i like to do. I guess some people and I would include myself get a little caught up in this charade game. But i'll be a man about it and apoligize to anybody if i offended them. do i think some people are childish in this whole thing? yes and i think we are all in a way, but some people are more than others. but than i get to thinking, this isn't life or death and i really could care less what people think. plus having a few drinks in ya, doesn't help the cause as well.

Im voting for Kerry because i just don't trust bush. Fair and simple. now everybody can come up with facts, numbers, polls and whatever. Im still going to stick with voting for Kerry. Is he the right man, i dont know, nobody knows, but im going to take my vote and put it in for him. This is a free country. Am I a liberal?? hardly not. i voted for Bush the first time around. I am voting for kerry more based on the fact that i don't trust bush on a few reasons. Now once again, these are opinions...i think he really got us into a mess in Iraq. i admit i was in for invading, but i thought 2 things that i thought was going to happend. 1) we were going to find WMD's and find some kind of link with Saddam and Al Quada. 2) i thought when we invaded we would have more of a coaltion of army,per say more troops provided by other countries. all i see is us and maybe the british, but i see some stats alot that we are about 90% of the whole military there. in my opinion, i just think Bush lies about alot of stuff thats all. if he gets re elected, hey you know what, thats fine, im not going to cry about it, he fought the better fight than kerry. but im not going to cave in and say well hey since everybody is voting for bush, i should to. this is a free country and thats what i like about having choices. I have read alot of what kerry has to say and i have read alot of what bush has to say and to me, i just believe kerry is a bit better and he seems more determined. can kerry catch Osama, can he get our troops out of Iraq, can he stop N Korea and Iran from upgrading their weapons. I don't know, but i sure am willing for this man to give it a shot. I also am worried about our economy as well. Everbody says its gonna be fine, it will go up, but honestly i haven't seen a thing change. hopefully if its either kerry or bush we can get things fixed over seas and at home. i wish really good luck to everybody on their vote and fawk at least we have a choice who to vote for. now you can call me a pussy or whino, really i dont care, its a opinion thats all, there isn't much thats gonna change my mind. if im a loser for choosing kerry than so be it, but hey im sticking to my guns on what i believe in thats all. i mean crap, ive been a die hard Cubs fan for 27 years and look how much pain and torture i go through. 31 days to the election good luck and i better make some fricking money this week as well, i went to a rip off pumpkin patch festival with my daughter yesterday and man, it was like bend over city to buy anything. my daughter had a good time, but crap i thought i was at disneyworld or something. the place was like on farm, not like its a amusement park. i told my wife im gonna make this house haunted and start charging people just to come in, these peole rape you on halloween. good night guys

Kdogg,


I agree with your post in entirity and like you I also voted for Bush in 2000 and I still feel he was the better choice over Gore. Unfortunately after watching this administration lie over and over to the american people I will be following folks like yourself whom will be backing Kerry come election day, the time has come for a change as I dont think we can afford four more years of this administration as the future is looking bleak for the younger genrations. In no way shape or form do I feel Kerry is going to come in and be able to repair much of anything that has been damaged by this administration but at least IMO he will do less damage then four more years of Cheney and Bush! Yes I know that we are being told that if Kerry wins then the terrorist will have a field day but under which administration did 9/11 occur under? Was it not the bush administration? I dont think it will make any difference which party is in control as terror will be with us for the rest of our lives.

Kdogg, I appreciate your post and agree with alot of what you say. I respect your opinions and posts and I for one like to see where some of various ideas are coming from. Seems like each side of this forum is always calling out each other to defend whatever lie. I unlike you though will vote for Bush. Being a small business owner myself and having a BS in Economics and a masters in theology, (well almost, May 2005) I think smaller government is the answer to many of our problems. The economic upturn is cyclical in nature and if you look at history, is is just like anything else, times of expansion and contraction, currently we are in an upturn which would have happened regardless of which president was in office. Their policies do effect that up or downturn to some degree. The war has had a positive effect on our country in defense spending and so on. In fact, countries have gone to war in order to turn their economies around. Maybe Bush pushed more than he should of for this reason among others. I don't believe Bush lied and I do think he is a man of character. I feel he is sincere in wanting what is best for this country and as MC stated, I agree terrorism will be with us the rest of our lives. I also think Bush is better suited to protect us from this threat. One of my bigger fears of Kerry is that I don't think he has the balls to make the tough choices. Over the years the UN has been nothing but talk and has no guts to take a stand or act as in Rwanda for example. I think Kerry would not act and allow the rest of the world to dictate to us. We are the only superpower left in the world and we have a responsibility to all peoples to protect justice and freedom. I am not saying attack everyone, or drop bombs on anyone that doesn't agree with us. Talk is always best but unfortunately, there are some nuts in the world and hot spots that will need to be addressed. Simply feels Bush is better for this situation. Economy will take care of itself although reversing tax cuts will hurt small business and middle class. I may have to let someone go in my small shop of 9 people. You don't trust Bush which I can understand, I really don't trust Kerry to do the job. What we have in common is that we all want what is best for the country, it is just how we go about it. Keep up the good posting.
