You tried to FIX the bad behaviour? By voting for KERRY? Good ing job mate, you really did your homework. :rolleyes:
Funny how two-faced you're being on this issue - getting upset because of the apology in this thread and then coming to us apologizing for your country's behaviour with the "but I didn't vote for him" tacked on. You've just done EXACTLY the same thing that the thread starter did, except that you sided with the Democrats instead of the Republicans. Guess what buddy, not ALL of us want to hear half-baked apologies for a president that we think is far more qualified to run the country than his braindead competitor would have been. Honestly you sound like a ing Canadian apologizing for this nonsense - act American and show some damn patriotism!
And you know, you're entitled to your opinion, especially being an American since you live the policies that your leader makes every day. The only thing I find disturbing is that a lot of the Kerry voters consider themselves national heroes or moral superiors to the Bush voters, and that's precisely how the democratic process ISN'T supposed to work.
You folks can be cranks all you want, but history will record the truth, just as it did for Truman and Reagan. Personally, I'm thankful that Americans in general were smart enough not to elect Kerry, because the U.S. economy would have gone down the crapper, the relevance of which to me is that the Canadian economy would have followed it down there, as would most of the world's economy. |
i say we have a revolution and put me as a dictator in power of all of north america. itll be a in free for all.i cant promise u too much politically. but i can say this, "abortions drugs sex and money for everyone" |

Uh... it already DID... not much room for it to go anywhere BUT up from where it was. |

Trust me, there was plenty of room. It was down, but not nearly down the crapper.
Kerry wanted to model health care after Canada's system... brilliant plan. :rolleyes: He would have bankrupted half the country in no time flat. Bush isn't doing so great either but that's mainly because he's not sticking to the Republican agenda like he should be. |

| It wasn't the exact same idea as Canada's system. But you're absolutely right that Kerry was a weak candidate. I'm still of the opinion that he could have done at least no worse than Bush, and probably slightly better. |

But how could you know whether or not that's true, when Kerry couldn't seem to make up his mind on anything?
A candidate like that is showing only one thing: that he panders and caves in easily under pressure. I personally feel that Canada's economy (not to mention our civil rights) have been wrecked by politicians caving into special interest groups. Bush had the balls to say "no" to half the people and make some enemies in the process and take all the slings and arrows, and when the country is divided you need that kind of leadership, otherwise it will fall apart. |

| I didn't have any problems understanding Kerry's stances on anything. He didn't keep changing his mind according to the many MANY news-briefs I saw that "explained" some of his "flip-flops" and how the Reps were spinning things out of context. But there was plenty of that going on on both sides of the fence. |

That is 100% Grade A Baloney. The "explanations" made no sense and were pretty typical of the Liberal media - mainly, all they said was "don't worry about it, he's a Democrat so it's okay".
I should find that sound file with all his totally conflicting statements. If you can find me any examples of Bush flip-flopping, go right ahead and post them - I've challenged several people to do that and so far nobody's taken me up on it. |

I have one off the top of my head... His being AGAINST the 9/11 comission, then changing his mind as soon as the public began to demand it. I know there are a few lists around that show his flip-flopping agenda, and I can't remember any of it. If I find it I'll post up and let you defend it :)
I could also use the cheap-shot flip-flop... where he claimed he wanted to deal with Iraq diplomaticaly, then got impatient, changed his mind and started a war when he didn't have to. But it could be argued he didn't really want to deal with things diplomaticaly in the first place, so technicaly he was LYING not flip-flopping... but that's ok, he's a politician! :rolleyes: |

ok then I will...Most of the terrorists that flew the planes INTO the World Trade Center we're Saudis and NOT Iraqis...Osama Bin Ladin (A Saudi)was the mastermind behind THOSE attacks and was living in the area of the Afguan/Pakistan border BUT Bush invaded Iraq....That to me is the HUGEST "flip Flop" of all time...
If I was President I think I would go after the one who was responsible for killing over 3000 innocent people & not brainwash an entire nation into thinking that attacking another country that had NOTHING to do with 9/11 was justified.
Yes Sadam was an but was SOO much under a microscope (I.E: Air & Satelite servailance, no-fly zones...)that it was very hard for him to do anything AND that he was the kind of bull headed dictator that he wanted NO terrorist (like Bin Laden) living in his country for fear of being overthrown himself by a terrorist group.He ruled with an iron fist along with his 2 sons. |

oh come on Iraq is alot better off without Saddam he was a bad leader etc etc :rolleyes:
seriously when will some people going to stop saying that ?How long are the Americans going to use that same wmd,terrorism excuse over and over for destroying lives of the millions of Iraqi's?
Iraq now is a country filled with Americans occupiers with no law and order in place with a popet government running the country.
Iraqi people must be thankful and happy everyday for what Bush has done to their country. I mean who wouldnt be ?
Thank you Mr. Bush thank you.:whip: :whip:
p.s My heart goes to all those Iraqis and their never ending fight against the Americans. Hopefully one day Iraq will truly be free.:) |
