wow, i dont even remember writing that first post. to tell you the truth i was probably really drunk.
but i still dont want you to vote for bush. and hears my thoughts on why....
Enviroment.
I've just read town books here recently that really attacks Bush's views on the enviroment. it was absolutley distrubing. Personally i dont think my kids are going to have a sustainable world to grow up in. These books were written by some TV show columist, they were wrtten by experts. One with Nineveh was written by paul and anne elrich. this was probably there last book because there like 70 years old or something. they have been studing human ecology for many many years. they were involved with the first international talks of cutting CO2 emmisions in 92 or something in RIO. check that book out, if you want, ill loan it to you. it is a great and in-depth read about sustainable life and politics.
The second book i am reading about this issue, is Robert Kennedy's bookCrimes Against Nature. Now before you go off spewing about Kennedy being a liberal democrat and blah blah blah, this guy is a eviromental lawyer who has seen what Bush has done FIRST HAND. So many of his trials trying to hold BIG BIZ companies accountalble for their pollution have been stopped in dead heat by the Bush administraion. But the even more important issue in that book is how the Bush administration is in this grotesque orgy with all the polluting companies. These corperations have taken over our government. So many of the adminsitraion appointies were former lobbyists for the polluting industries. This book goes into the marrigage of right-wing ideology and BIG BIZ starting with the 1970s after earth day. Thats when Big Biz saw how the green revolution could cut into there profits. They Immediately got together to battle the eviromentalists, starting with Joe Coors and the funding of the heritage foundation. Now it seems they have peaked since they finally paid for there man to be in office. Bush has rolled back over 200 enviorment protection laws because these people will contribute 50 million dollars to his campagn efforts. Oh yeah the mass media is a part of that too. Unfortunately they dont like to educate the citizenry on many of these things. I never heard of the Kyoto Protocol till waaaay after we walked away from it.
Whats so f***ing christian about polluting our natural world just to make a buck?
Abortion
Quit it, stop please im going to scream, this should be a non-issue.
National Security
When al-Queda started to plan the 9/11 attacks way before 2001, there was probably under 500 members as quoted by CIA officals. How many do you think there are now? do you think less? wrong. All this war in Iraq has done is just create more hate for America. Now don't get me wrong Afganistan->good. We should have finished the war there before moving on. Yes saddam gone is good, but come on people, look all over the world people dont agree with us. Now Bush said in the debate, I wont follow popular decision(or something to that extent), BUT ISNT THAT WHAT DEMOCRACY IS>!>?>!>? If we are going to fight a GLOBAL WAR ON TERROR, shouldnt we try and keep the globe involved? Personally i think nationally security is a subset of global security. if the globe is secure then we will be secure.
Taxes and corperate welfare
when i was growing up my dad used to talk to me abbout politics. It was always about Dems and welfare and how there just lazy. Hand outs, pfft he would say. Unfortuantely I dont think he knows the amount of money the government hands out in subsidies every year. What about not allowing the import of drugs?!?!? All these republicans talk about the free Market being a FIX-ALL for any kind of problem. FIX THE f***ING HEALTH CARE COSTS BY ALLOWING A TRUELY FREE MARKET. but yet once again CEO's own our government and perseude the white house to ban import of drugs.
Bush says he cuts taxes for the rich to stimulate jobs and growth. If your giving the OPTION of spending 100 dollars on yourself or giving that to charity or some student orginization, what are you going to choose? s*** i know, im going to take that 100 bucks and go get drunk. Why not just tax the super rich, and then directly put that money into research for improving our technologies, like solar power, better mass transportaion, better health care, EDUCATION (which has also skyrocketed in the last 4 years).
Ok im going to shut the f*** up now and await you replies. please challenge me, becuase politics and the way human society is proceding has consumed my thoughts and actions this summer. i've been training in the off season, now im ready for some action.
