I wonder if Chris Thomas is a real pilot? Anybody know?

Gentlemen,

I didn't criticize any one of you, I only stated a fact about your
selected
leader. I do not have to list any of Bush's bumblings, he makes a fool
out
of himself everyday. I am fond of only one of his policies and that
concerns abortion. The rest of his decisions (which are probably not his
to
begin with) are terrible.

I am not necessarily fond of Kerry either, and I wouldn't vote for Nader.
What's a shame is that this country can only have two people to choose
from
when it comes time to elect a leader. But I guess that's what happens
when
you live in a false democracy.

Sincerely,
Stan Kapushinski

They say it takes one to know one.

You just don't get it do you? Saying "Bush is an idiot, period" is not an
argument it is a statement by someone who doesn't want an intelligent
discussion. We have had presidents who have pulled some idiotic stunts,
but we
have never had an "idiot" for a president. The fact he completed a
master's
degree should tell you otherwise. He's dyslexic and to have got a 4 year
degree
is very difficult for dyslexic. I ought to know since I am also dyslexic.
If
you and I had met to discuss the election and you started out that way you
would immediately find yourself alone.

Do you refer to his stumbling with words? I do too when public speaking. I
have
done it many times because I simply don't like doing it and I stutter
anyway.

Here, let me try this. In my opinion GW Bush is an idiot! Why? Any man
that tosses his flight training in the trash can, as GW Bush did, must have
a screw loose.

I thought better of you, Del. Whether you
respect a man or not, a comment like this is
just unfathomable.

That is a typical attitude of those on the left, that only they are
capable of having a principled position. Their opposition are either
stupid, or brainwashed tools of their masters. Quite telling, really.


Actually, I'm a republican, and I completely agree with Stan.

I'm sure the republic will get along quite nicely regardless (or
perhaps in spite) of whatever views us skeptics have, but I really
don't think you need to be on the left or on the right to see through
our current political system. Too much money is involved - there is
nothing democratic about it.

Maybe right now there's nothing better anywhere else on the planet,
but I think the founding fathers would be rolling over in their graves
if they knew what our electoral process has mutated into. IMHO, we
aren't the country we used to be, and most people simply just don't
care.

OK. Here we have a guy who received two of his Purple Hearts for self

Yup. Either Kerry told the truth and should be prosecuted for war
crimes, or he lied and should be prosecuted for perjury.

You got a laugh out of me on this one. How true. The problem with
both the Bush baby and Kerry is that they are both pathological liars.
I think Michael Moore is an illiterate, but his fictional movies about
"I hate America" do cause people to enter into dialog and dicuss
important issues. One thing Moore is convinced of is that Bush is
truely a pathological liar. I might have to agree with that, however,
my problem is...that Kerry is too!

I don't think either of these candidates would know the truth if it
bit them in the ass.

Is this the best that my country can offer me as a voter to choose
from? I find it sickening.

Bill Phillips

Bush is an idiot, period.

Stan K.

Yes, Stank, I stand in awe of the profound logic contained within your
rebuttal. I can see the Court TV coverage now:

Judge (to Kerry): On the charges of murder in the first degree, and
the other crimes against humanity, how do you plead?

Attorney for Kerry: Bush is an idiot. The defense rests.

BBBBWWWWAAAAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAA

You crack me up Del. How true!

We only have two people to choose from because the American People have
decided
that is what they want. When they finally get sick of the candidates put
forth
by those two parties, they will finally accept one or more additional
parties.
It is not a false democracy, only what the people are willing to accept.


Bob Reed






I think of it more like a pendulum. After one party is in power for a while,
its activists push its agenda so far in its favorite direction that the people
in the middle get a gut feeling that things have gone too far and they join the
other side to throw the rascals out.

When the opposite party gains power, their activists inevitably push their
agenda so far in the opposite direction that we eventually have to throw them
out. Its a messy business with things getting out of hand about half the time
but with a fairly happy median.

Fortunately the "Ship of State" is so ponderous that things don't get too far
out of hand during any one administration to cause irreversible recovery.

Wait, he's dyslexic? Is that common knowledge? Why hasn't that been
broadly mentioned before in the news media, or has it? I don't know,
I rarely watch network news. But I read the papers and haven't seen
that mentioned anywhere. What's your source?

That would certainly explain why he doesn't read much, like the
Presidential Daily Brief describing the pending attack on the WTC that
he apparently didn't get to because the information was towards the
rear of the brief.

But wait, that doesn't explain his rather ludicrous inability to
speak. Dyslexics speak fine, they just have a hard time reading.,
There must be something else going on besides dyslexia.

We live in a democracy.
We want a pathological liar to be president.
Why else would two pathological liars be running for president?
If the American people wanted an honest person to be president,
they would vote for Nader.

I agree. The amendment which enabled direct election of US senators
by the populace should be repealed.
