wasn't even sure she had arthritis. And, he doesn't know anything about his
dog's "arthritis".

Election Day is ticking away. E-mail this to as many people as possible or we
will be living in an Al Gore fantasyland.



I am a canadian and I am getting scared if he gete elected.
 
Hi Bob, I am a Texan & the thought of Shrub being in the White House scares me more. George can't even put 6 words together in a sentence & has no concept of global politics. The thought of him sitting down at a table with any world leaders is a joke. He isn't even sure WHO most of the world leaders are. There isn't a politician in the world who doesn't lie. Bush has consistently lied about his military service, his past drug use, he may have a Hispanic sister in law, but he is as white as they come. The only thing Bush has done while governor of Texas is sign the concealed handgun bill & oppose laws that will help keep guns out of the hands of crazy people & kids. He is in the pocket of oil & the NRA, gas prices will never go down with him in office. The President of the US is supposedly the mostpowerful person in the world, I think we need someone who can at least put a sentence together. Bush's performance in the debate was disgraceful. He had no facts or data on anything & spent the evening attacking Gore. As someone who has watched Bush for several years, he is not Presidential material, he is barely gubernatorial material. I would rather keep him in Texas than inflict him on the rest of the world. As bad as Gore is, he at least has some experience on the world stage.
 
Well ebign truthful, I dont like the thought of either one of them in office.

I don't see wither one of them with the ability to not screwing it up royally. I cringe at the thought for the sake of the world. If I had to choose the lesser of two evils, this is a case I could not choose. thats why I like the 4 or 5 party system up here. At least with 4 or 5 there is some small hope that one is an inkling better than the rest.

Sorry If I insulted your partisan ship i meant no harm I am merely an outsider looking in. Again I apologize before any insult is take accidentally.
 
I say vote for Bush as the lesser of two evils and then hope for a heart attack since Dick Cheney is "on deck" and can supply integrity and some brains.

Does anyone else think that George Sr. talked Cheney into being his running mate so "Dubya" would have some adult supervision?
 
I was thinking that Expertise, but I didn't want to see a presumptuous outsider
 
Tongue firmly in cheek

Since whoever the guy is, he becomes the "Leader of the Free World"...... how come we don't get a vote BT? Fucking selfish yanks.;)
 
It doesn't matter its all a conspiracy by the pharmacetitcals. they will control us all, its only a matter of time.
 
Not to worry, bobtoad, I am not real thrilled with either of them myself. Who is elected President affects all people, not just those of us in the US. A lot of people in Texas feel that Cheney is a babysitter to the Shrub, but a lot of others in Texas have little use for Cheney. He helped close a lot of military bases & the economy of several Texas cities was adversely affected. Because of what happened to my son, I have serious concerns with Bush's attitudes toward gun violence, as a woman, I have concerns with his stand on women's rights in many areas. This is another one of those elections where you have to go for the lesser of 2 evils. I think it was Siren who said voters should look to who the next President will nominate to the Supreme Court. That is where the true power is & the thought of some good ole bubba of a judge being a part of the SC is scary.

Judge Cletus T. Redneck presiding...

The SC is huge I realize.

Its hard to say which is scarier though.

Judge Cletus "Oral Roberts knows best" Redneck or Phineas T. "Hug a tree" Environut.
 
well the question then becomes if your afraid of bubba, what is to make gores man any better? Dont answer that I don't want to start a political fight

now that has got to be worthy of a debate in and of itself.
 
Bobtoad, Expertise!! What the hell do you two care about American politics for? You live in Canada for christ sakes!! Worry about your own political future instead of ours!! Personally I think I may forget to vote because i dont want to be responsible for putting either loser in office thank you!!
 
Why the Hell do I care about the American President, Cause if you don't realize every single freaking thing the good ole US of A does has its reprecusions felt in canada.

why the hell do you think our dollar is worth shit? you take 100$ across to the USA you have 54$ you bring a hundred dollars from USA to CAnada you have 162$

Anything that happens in the USa affects Canada, as Expertise said we candians should have a vote in the election.
 
NH America is the epitomization of the phrase "think localy act globaly". Even if it is not the way it was originaly intended

Whatever America does effects in no small way the entire world and to a far larger extent Canada. Period. Thus our interest and concern.

I don't want or expect a vote or a say in who sits in the Oval office. But I sure as fuck am interested.

Its is small minded and provincial thinking like that which ensures the survival of term "the ugly american".

Sorry NH, but that was just dumb.
 
Yo ok dont come down on me because I asked a question for christ's sake. Thats all it was. Damn next time i wont get into a serious conversation I always seem to get crap for it.
 
My appologies NH. Your statement (not a question) just sounded like a slap at me and BT. A slap may have been warranted at one of us (sorry BT your on your own) but I didn't feel I deserved one just because of my interest.

Anyway that is what I was calling dumb. If you didn't mean it that way, my bad.
 
The only reason i even posted on this thread was because I asked Mr. Toad about his interest in American politics off the board and I got ignored whatever hes a fuckhead he thinks im only good for one thing getting him off and i havent done that in weeks his damn loss.
 
Naked Hunny,

I am sorry for acting irresponsible here on this thread, I wish that I had not to worry about the outcome of your elcetion, but it goes further than the borders as Expertise. Again I apologize. feel free to slap me about the face with a trout if you wish, I didn't want this thread to become a fight.
 
I'm as big a fan of Lesley Gore as anyone, but I can't understand how singing 'It's My Party' and 'It's Judy's Turn To Cry' qualified her to be president.
 
Weren't those both Top 10 Singles? Maybe that's why.

I'm weird, but I'd rather have an "environut" in the White House than a "gun nut" or an "anti-choice" nut any day. And I like my nuts with a little sense in them. Gore may make commercials with Bush's flubs, but can you imagine what the rest of the world would do with them? Like it or not, public speaking is a big part of being President. We all may find Bush's malaprophisms and blunders "cute" and "approachable", but the rest of the world will see it as ignorant.

As far as Gore's "lies", it's been shown by many investigations that much of that is is Republican party propaganda. As stated on an article posted on another thread, Gore never claimed to have invented the Internet. He never even used that word. And his contribution TO the Internet has been publicly praised by the men who DID basically "invent" the Net. I won't paraphrase the whole article...here's a link to the that.

Bush has done his share of "lying". The problem is that Gore, in an effort to shed his Wooden Man image, has been bending over backwards not to attack Bush personally. However, instead of coming across as the gentleman, he comes across as though he has something to hide. I think he would have done better if he'd answered Bush's charges from Day One and fired back with a few of his own - on his oil ties, his NRA ties (remember that tape back a few months ago showing the NRA president talking about how if Bush won he'd be living out of the Oval Office? remember that scandal? short memories we all have, don't we?)

If Bush wins, it won't be because he's the better candidate. In fact, I think he's one of the worst candidates for President in my short life as a voter. He's inarticulate, unaware of foreign policy, deep in the pocket of the Oil industry and the gun lobby, and basically steered around by his handlers. He'll win because the Gore campaign has blundered, "big time".
 
OMG i agree with Ramlick

:p
