Davtar said:It had better not happen it's always good to see a republican brother in office. People say he is such a bad president, but people also in the past have said that JFK was a good president and that, he was not...can anyone say "Bay of pigs invasion". Everyone today in this day and age go off of public opinion and it pisses me off. Then I hear people say "I watch the news" the news is controlled by democrat scum!
AlphaTemplar said:the idea of impeachment scares, as that means Cheney becomes president if Bush is found guilty. Bush is a manipulatable bimbo. Cheney is a ruthless,intelligent neocon.
SoundMaster said:The idea of the media being dominated by the left is a fallacy born of the conservative media propaganda machine. The radio waves are dominated by right-wing propagandists (Rush, Hannity, Savage, etc); the TV is dominated by Fox (the highest ratings in the US), CNN, which used to be leftist, has moved to the center - it's now moderate fluff news, nothing left at all anymore. The print media is the one area where the left has any voice at all, but for every New York Times, there's a New York Post, etc. At best, it's 50/50. Again, this whole idea is the conservative media attempting to pull the wool over your eyes by proclaiming that the left controls the media - total bullshit. Think about this: who's proclaiming that the media is leftist? The MEDIA!! Obviosly, if it were leftist, they wouldn't go around comdemning themselves with such proclamations!
The fact of the matter is that practically NONE of the media puts Bush to the question. He gets away with murder unschathed. He gets a free pass constantly. Either the media is totally in his back pocket (which is likely) or they simply fear his admin and what these pricks will do to them (ie: Plame/Wilson).
The best example of this is Colin Powell's April 2004 admission that the case for war he brought before the UN and the world was "frought with error" and was "not a legitimate case for war" (paraphrasing). NONE - I repeat none of the major media outlets even gave this a breath! And this was BEFORE the idiots in the Bush admin finally admitted what we all knew in advance - that the possibility of Hussein possessing WMDs with long-range delivery capabilities was HIGHLY unlikely.
Of course, Powell was asked to leave the admin after coming clean with his crime. The burden of guilt was simply too much for him to bear. And the burden of truth is too much for Bu$hCo to bear. So he had to go.
The bottom line is that we're currently experiencing one of the worst presidencies the country has ever known. Bush spits on and pisses all over the constitution at every turn; he'a a religious zealot (much like bin Laden) and he's of sub-par intelligence. And if you dare to question his motives or his competancy, your slandered as being "un American" or some such nonsense.
Davtar said:What about Dan Rather the liberal asshole? The liberals have CBS, What about PBS? I used to watch the news untill everytime I watched it all that was on was some Democrat asshole telling lies and pure shit flowing out of his mouth. And what makes Bush so bad? No one i've ever asked has had a valid reason...al they ever say is "he's an idiot" and "he screwed up the country" never having a reason. I'm not saying he is the best, I just dont believe he is as bad as people make him. I should watch FOX news, I never have, if its right wing than it is a good thing. Because I am sick of hearing all of this democrat shit, you know what? you go be gay and support affirmative blacktion liberal shit.

SoundMaster said:Of course you've not heard about Bush's many failings. Had the media been dominated by liberals, you would have. But since it's not, you've been lead in the dark.
Concerning Bush, let's just take a look at the last 24 months, or so:
- he hates the constitution. He ADMITTED to illegally monitoring people's phone conversations. I'm all for destroying the terrorist element, and of course, he could have done this legally by obtaining a warrant, but fuck law, right? Just piss on all over it. Bush decided that American law is meaningless.
- he's driven the deficit back to riciculous levels....until a democrat gets back in office to fix it (like Clinton did in the 90s).
- he IDIOTICALLY attempted to float social security to the dangers of the stock market, and idea so BAD that even his fellow Republicans condemned him for it.
- his entire administration is based on simply handed UNqualified people high-ranking jobs. Ever hear of the Katrina disaster? Go look up the "credentials" of the man (Brown) Bush appointed to run the disaster relief organization FEMA. Brown's background is in fucking horse-breeding. But he's a buddy, so he gets the job. And we all saw the outcome of that, didn't we?
- he sabotaged and sacrificed American safety and the lives of those sworn to protect us. You see he decided to reveal the name of one of America's secret agents all because her husband had the audacity to critique Bush's policies. If you practice your right to speak, he takes your life in to his hands. Luckily, this woman (Val Plame) wasn't murdered by America's enemies.
- he spits on capitalism. After the invasion of Iraq, contracts to rebuild that nation weren't allowed to go up for BID, allowing the best work at competitive prices (which IS capitalism) because he decided his cronies in Halliburton, etc., should get the job bid-free. Of course, YOU'RE paying for it, so what do you care, right?
- and let's talk about this little country the size of California named Iraq. Well he decided that they had WMDs.....I mean that their leader was a mad man.....I mean that the country needs Democracy....ah what is his current reason for the war these days? Anyone know? Oh, wait a minute....I DO. We're there to safeguard the OIL, rebuild Iraq's oil-producing infrastructure and slowly bring Iraq's oil production and sakes up to pre Gulf War I levels all as an insurance policy against a potential coup against his buddies, America's enemies: the Saudi Royal family.
Of course, when Colin Powell realized that he could no longer support the bullshit, he came clean publicly. We never heard about this, of course, due to the lack of liberal-dominated media, but Bush sure heard about it. Guess who was asked to leave his position in the Bush admin?
And that's just in recent months.
But yes, the liberals have (or HAD) Dan Rather. Big deal.
Anyway, based on the following, which you stated above "...go be gay....I'm sick of all this democrat shit...blacktation liberal shit...", it's obvious that you're an ignoramus, living under a rock, and living in constant fear of the realities of life. Yes, there are gay people in this nation, yes there are blacks in this nation. You fear them both.....that's your problem.
Read it. Believe it. Accept it.
And move on.

Ah, but he DIDN'T do it legally. THAT'S the issue.Davtar said:I see no problem with monitoring peoples phone calls, it will be better in the long run, plus if you arent doing anything illegal then what is wrong with it?
Do you have any understanding of Capitalism and of NAFTA at all?Davtar said:Clinton is a FUCK NUT, sure we have a deficit but all Clinton did is fucking ruin our country by instating the nafta (spelling?) act, allowing companies to ship jobs overseas. erego, in a few years the US will be nonexistant because of this, not only that, but people not buying american products also didnt help. We are going downhill.
LOL! Yep, it make so much sense Bush's own party killed the idea.Davtar said:The social secruity thing, were you talking about his idea to reform it? if so, I thought it was a great idea, everything he said about it made sense.
Davtar said:I REALLY dont like talking about politics
I have a great deal of respect for facts!!! but you don't have to be Einstein to figure out that you just like to hear yourself speak (Or read what you've typed, your choice) It's the most blantantly obvious part of this post...Another wannabe intellectual who chooses to flex his "Mind Muscles" (Hilarious,I know) On the UM board...Instead of a board on politics where at least the people involved on a board like that would A. Want to read a post like that and B. Probably be able to come up with a half decent rebuttal for your argument....I have nothing against you, I have read your posts around UM and there's no doubt that you're cool, excluding your political posts... (I.E. My post isn't supposed to be flaming you in any way...So I hope you're not taking it that way) But you asked me If I disagree and this is my anwser (Long Version)SoundMaster said:I posted facts. Rational people should accept facts.
Do you disagree?
