This past Wednesday, President Bush held a rally at an airport about 1/4 mile from here. The only way to obtain a ticket for the event was to sign a paper stating that you supported Bush. Am I the only one here that finds something wrong with that? If I want to go see a sitting president speak, why do I have to support him? There was a lady at the event with a Kerry edwards t-shirt that "was promptly escorted off the grounds by police." I mean when you think about it, do you really blame Bush? He has his supporters, and he doesn't need others making an ass out of him. Maybe his supporters will start to think, hm, maybe this guy really is a dumbass. Sorry for the rant, I just don't understand shit sometimes.

No, his supporters DON'T think Jon. That's the whole problem at hand.

BTW We never had free speech throughout grade school, and now, beucase of our government, we again have barely any free speech.

Who ever said Bush was President of the United States for all Americans? I thought he made it clear early on that if you're not with him, you're against him. If you didn't vote for him, you're un-American and can go to hell.
Heheheheh

Yes Bush is a moron. I thought that Kerry was a bigger one...Lesser of two Weevils??
Not too many people talk about that f@#$ker Clinton and his NAFTA baby. How many of our jobs were sent to those deserving, downtrodden and poor mexicans? Uhhh, we could of used those jobs here.
Don't you love the freedom of speech? Woot!
California still sucks though.

I don't think I'd bash Clinton when it comes to ANYTHING dealing with the economy...

Damn Clinton and his big deficit busting Washington government.
Oh, wait, Clinton reduced the entitlement programs and balanced the national deficit. I must have been thinking of Bush and his new medicare drugs and big government pork deficit spending. Ooops.

I am only referring to NAFTA and sending work elsewhere. I vote both sides of the road...
Lesser of two weevils....
Clinton was president when there was a helluva economy going on. It was the longest run in a long time. Bush got it when it turned to shit..He is still a idiot though.
As for Kerry, he went to Paris(?) and said we were wrong and sorry about Vietnam. They played his tape over and over for the benifit of POWs still there. This comes from a person who was a POW, here where I am. Kerry was a shit for doing that to them. Probably would have pulled out of the middle east and said, so sorry for bothering you. We were bad, keep the bodies.

LOL. Fair enough, who knows. I think Kerry would have gotten us some international help. It's a mess over there and we're all alone just about. Oh well, I suppose my generation will pay.

Kerry would have gotten the international community to help us. As long as he backpeddled out of the middle east. Until Bushy gets out of the Middle East we need someone with some big balls there.
See your sig... it is teh cowboy hat= balls
