Election Thread #1 -real version (Let's see how long we can stay on topic)

[ConcreteSchlyrd]

I voted Bush because I see the liberal trend as being chaotic. Go Bush!

Run for the hills! Things might actually change! HOLY SHIT, SOMEONE HOLD ME!

[Hairygroin]

hey Bob...last I heard around 1 thousand soldiers (maybe even less) died in iraq.

Where is this "thousands" number coming from? Maybe you should look at your sources.

There you go again calling me ignorant.

Like I said, I didn't look at the war in Iraq as my primary factor in the election.

1000 deaths in Iraq / 1.3 million abortions each year in the USA

= 0.0007692 = .07692% = around 7/100 %.

This means that the war casualities in Iraq are about 7 hundredths of a single percent of abortion casualties.

Call me blind or not, but that's an awful hard figure to just "ignore". I don't think I'm being ignorant by choosing to not ignore this. This alone is worth my voting for Bush.

Instead, perhaps I should be calling you ignorant? Naw, I won't resort to those tactics.

Everyone, shut the fuck up and make a different thread to scream at each other. Please refer to the initial post in this thread.

And about the gay issue, I already said that I feel uncomfortable with the whole homosexuality issue.

Would I be being fair to myself if I voted against my feelings and conscience? After all, you guys believe that being gay is being true to your feelings and conscience.

Don't you think you are being hypocritical by saying I'm stupid by doing what you say I should be doing?

I was more impressed with Edwards's speech than I was with Kerry's, which is appropriate.

That's the first time Edwards has made the coverage over here. He's quite impressive, something of a young Kennedy about him. Shame he didn't run instead...

[Troll King]

I met a girl the other day. Would it be against your conscience if I eventually married her? Please tell me soon so I'll know not to waste my time with the wooing and courting et cetera.

but it's NOT YOU.. like I said, nobody's asking you to be gay, just give everyone equal rights. If I said I was uncomfortable around blacks, so I want a seperate school and a seperate workplace, is that ok?

EDIT: better yet, I'm gonna vote that blacks can't get married.. seems fair, I'm uncomfortable with blackness.

.

so 100,000 dead iraqis aren't important?

and who would be taking care of those kids? You and I would with our tax dollars.. and their kids, and their kids and the occasional broken window and stolen radio out of your car.

try leaving the wealthy sububs and join the real world once in awhile.

Sorry Vyk, but I can't let this go. I just can't. My head is going to explode if I don't unload on Hairygroin.

Hairy, why is homosexuality more important to you than our economy? Do you like the idea of having higher taxes to pay and fewer good jobs to help you put food on the table? Are you more concerned with getting a "sick feeling in your stomach" than having the rest of the motherfucking globe ready and willing to take a giant shit on you because your president has alienated your country from virtually every last aspect of the international political arena? The war in Iraq wasn't a factor for you, eh? So you're telling me that you don't give a flying fuck that your tax dollars are being pissed away like cheap beer through a binge drinker and people, your countrymen, innocent Iraqi citizens, are dying day in and day out, and all for what? Seriously, tell me what we're accomplishing? Help me to understand what purpose their deaths have served.

Do you know what a p-r-i-o-r-i-t-y is? Honestly, do you? What in the blue fuck is WRONG with the people in my country? I'm flabbergasted. Straight up, I can't even begin to understand how you could have the brain capacity to type a coherent sentence, and yet still vote for George W. Bush. Bullshit "sick feelings in your stomach" aside, common sense, practicality and all things logical in the world don't support a single fucking thing Bush and his administration have done or plan to do.

Wake up and use your goddamn head. Please. PLEASE! There are MUCH more important things to be considering than gay marriage and abortion. Homosexual cocks in homosexual asses aren't going to bring this country to its knees. Letting a woman decide what she wants to do with her body isn't going to land us in a jam we can't get out of. If we let Bush and his administration lie to us, exert military authority whenever and wherever they please, fuck with our economy... all of this without a shred of accountability... my fucking god man, can you NOT see the horrific amount of trouble we're headed for?

<Sigh>
Four more years.

In any case, the election is over, and the direction I wanted to take cogent post-election discussion in is in the other thread (the "Two questions..." thread).

Moderators, this can be closed. It has served its purpose, I hope.

[ConcreteSchlyrd]

Thread closed at the wish of Vyk. - Conc
