Maybe the reason he doesn't realize how many Americans are dissatisfied with his policies is because he only reads the part of the paper that gets handed to him and he's not allowed to see the protesters.

Maybe.






Naaaaah!

Why do you defend him so blindly?

Hm. That could be asked of a lot of things when one does not agree with another's views.

1. The President has proven how he will act. He is overall consistent. Kerry, on the other hand, in the ten minutes of one of the debates I saw he had changed his opinion on Iraq so many times my head was spinning and I was yelling at him disproving his warped views.

2. Our President may not have the best military record, but at least he was not like Kerry after Vietnam protesting it, saying it was very wrong, comparing it with Ghengis Khan and then using it as a major campaign!

3. Our President is for morals. He tried to get rid of Partial Birth abortion, which is unecessary to have. If a woman must have an abortion, she can have it before the child is to the point where if only a few more inches were out, it would be murder. He is against homosexual marriage, which will lead to moral and population decline in our country (Arwen's reply to you really showed that even from a nonbiblical viewpoint.).

4. Our President shows what I see has true patriotism. He is willing to do something for the furthering and protecting of our nation despite popular opinion.

Those are just a few. If you call that blindly, then so be it. And, having faith in God (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) has EVERYTHING to do with how one votes, or at least it should, as His Word should have a major influence on how one views things. I will be praying tomorrow, for our nation, for the voters, for the President, even for John Kerry -- that if he becomes President, he will somehow have firm positions all at once.

Look, the entire issue about homosexual marriage was raised in order to get the conservative right to the polls during this election. Bush used to think the states should decide, but he flipflopped over to a constitutional amendment when Karl Rove told him he needed to look staunchly anti-Gay in order to energize that community. It's not about the Bible, it's about scare tactics. If we went to strictly Biblical law, your opinion wouldn't matter because you're female.

The second person to put in arguments on the ballot for Oregon said it so much better than I could:

Most Americans are moderate about abortion -- I also happen to agree that if a woman needs to get an abortion early is better than late (and that a legal abortion is a hard choice but an illegal abortion is a worse one) -- but Bush is pandering to the folks who want to not only take away a woman's right to choose an abortion, they also want to take away her right to choose birth control. And I don't want to go there.

Kerry is capable of being subtle, which is different from contradicting himself. Nuance matters.

And Bush isn't all that moralistic. Watch this:
