    Default Bush vs Kerry

    Bush has very polarized views on a myriad of issues. He forces us to either love him or hate him, because of his all or nothing standpoint on just about anything.

    Kerry seems just the opposite. He almost never makes a firm stand on any position. Noone loves or hates Kerry, because he gives us nothing to love or hate.

    Who is the lesser of two evils? The man who has massively polarizing oppinions on everything, or the man who has no oppinions on anything?
    Knock yourselves down.

    Can't say because Kerry hasn't been President yet, so I can't really say how he'd do in power.

    I am not against Bush as a person, but his policies are just not making much sense to me. So, I'm voting for Kerry to get something new.

    Take care all.

    I can hate Kerry because he's an enormous jerk. A year ago, I thought, like many, that anyone would be better than Bush. Thanks for proving me wrong, John. :aimsmile:

    I still think he's better than Bush, even though he has no redeeming qualities whatsoever.

    I despise Kerry for his actions after he was discharged from service after Viet Nam.

    Better the evil you know than the evil you don't.

    I'd rather go with the massively polarized views, so long as I agreed with some/most of them. If you have someone who's going to be completely random, then you never know what you're going to end up with. At least you pretty much know what the Bush team is going to do.

    And I tend to believe that everyone DOES have an opinion about things. If you appear not to, either you're an idiot or you're lying.

    Um...


    I don't believe I need to say much

    Seriously though, Kerry looks intelligent to me. And certainly better than Bush.

    I'd rather vote for someone who knows what they're doing, despite the popularity of their decisions, than someone who has a history of flip-flopping decisions. Kerry may say one thing, but he may vote for it or against it, thus lying about what he planned to do. Bush, on the other, will do what he promised, but sometimes, he can't because of heavy oppositions, but that's ok, because that's how our government works.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    Probably Kerry, 'cause I can't stop getting pissed off at Bush for screwing up too many times.

    Bush's continued presidency is one of the few things I'm afraid of. I'm voting Kerry.

    I'd rather not have a president who I can beat in a spelling bee.

    Mr Bush, How do you spell IRAQ

    I'd rather have a President that spends time seriously thinking about important issues and from time to time changes his stance based on principled thought, rather than slavishly following the same line of attack despite it's failure.

    The idea that Kerry will say anything to please anyone is a story being made up by Bush and company. Considering the Bush administration's tenuous hold on the truth...

    We need a President, who, look others have said, will sit and think through something, then make a choice, regardless of whether it fell on party lines or not. I recall that JFK during the Cuban Missile Crisis did just this, and probably helped to avoid a war. Granted, that was about the only time he did that, but it's better than nothing. I'm tired of politics making the policies. Can't we make policies based on REAL ideas for a change and not just because the GOP or Democrats support it?

    Take care all.

    Kerry doesn't get much coverage over here. Still, that doesn't matter to me: I'd rather have a lump of cheese win the next election than have Bush again.

    I can only go on his foreign "policies", but I think Bush's actions have made the world a less safe and worse place to live. But maybe America is a better place to live since Bush came to power (though I doubt it).
