"bush may not be a smart guy, but he's a good christian cuz he says so." "FOX news says that kerry is a traitor. Why would the media lie?" "The US PATRIOT ACT is for your own protection. There's an unsubstatiated terrorist attack. We don't know where, how, when, but we do know that you should be scared, but prepared. We're doing a great job." Does that sound like intelligence? The majority of people I know fall into on of those categories. It's quite sad, really. ah wilks, to be young and naive. if you have so much faith in the american people, why all the reality shows? tv reflex the minds of people. guess what? the majority of people don’t care about politics. they depend on the government, the media or their religion to make up their minds. “bush may not be a smart guy, but he’s a good christian cuz he says so.” “FOX news says that kerry is a traitor.

Nor does Rudy, the former mayor of the biggest city in the coutry. Rudy...mayor..so what. Schwarzenegger...terminator...gropenator? The actor? oh yeah...real impressive. So the voters in CA are concentrated in the area of no thinking...SoCal. They recongnized a name on the ballot. Big deal. Jerry Falwall and Robertson little power in the Repub party? Where do you live? The president speaks to jesus and god and Pat and Jerry don't have any power??? Right! Delay is just a crook...fits right in with any Neocon looking for power.

You're are so far left....I don't think so. I think most of the people who post on this site are only out for a chatty argument. There is no decision from where I stand. Either you are for totalitarianism i.e Bush et al or are you want a choice. Kerry at least offers some sanity. Your so far to the left, Marc, that you’d make Lenin blush.

I just dont think we should get rid of every department of goverment, education, health care, and basic security should really be run by the goverment. But either way, its about control. Dems and Reps to an extent want goverment to control you, while Libs and Reps also want businesses to control you. And I love Libertarians.

(You noticed that both Barack Obama as well as John Kerry himself struck a very moderate note. We didn't hear any of the usual class warfare nonsense.) I think I know how you feel about the Republicans, but what about the Libertarian Party? On many of the issues you feel strongly about (ex: crimes involving personal freedoms) both the Democrats and the Republicans are more or less in the same boat--albeit for different reasons. For example: it has been said that Republicans want prostitution to be illegal because it involves sex, while Democrats want it to be illegal because it involves money. But they both want to legislate their own interpretation of public morality. Neither of the major parties seems to be standing up concerning the decriminalization of personal freedoms. The Libertarians are the only ones making definitive statements in this area. (The Libertarians also stand up for economic freedom, while the Dems think your income should be automatically earmarked for government distribution.) Marc:
