... Well, not really a Republican, but I did vote for Bush in 2000. I'm more politically centered. In 2000 I thought maybe Bush was a smart guy, but it just came across stupid with his speech impedament. I couldn't stand Gore. I found myself cheering on Bush and Bashing Democrats. They all seemed to take on beady eyes.

I supported Bush on 9/11. I thought he did the right thing. He seemed strong and was showing good qualities. I supported the invasion of Afganistan. I'm suprized we couldn't catch Bin Laden, but maybe our tactics weren't very good. Bush supporter still. Then the Idea of giving Saddam an ultimatum came up. I said "ok, but why finish the job ten years later... I guess he could be harboring WMD, but it just doesn't feel right. Something's up.",..

But even with great doubt, I kept my fingers crossed that we would find something. My faith in Bush began to slide... All of a sudden we were "freeing the people of Iraq" so I said BULLSHIT!!! My brothers and sisters are not going over there and dying to free a different culture on the otherside of the world! What happened to WMD? Why the different intentions? Why Bush? Why!!!

I had my doubts before. Now I really had my doubts. What's up with Iraq? Why is Iraq so important? The terrorists are from Saudi Arabia and Afganistan. This war makes no sense... and why the hell are we fighting an unconventional war, conventionally? These people aren't scared of us. They aren't afraid to die. Hell they blow themselves up in the name of religion...

If we fight a battle in the middle east, it's a no win, 1000 year conflict (see Isreal). It makes no sense. These terrorists are everywhere. We can't take on the whole world. We can't police the whole world. The cost is too much. It's not worth my tax dollars!!! Bring on the plane terrorists. I'll educate myself! Next time they pull out boxcutters, I'll risk being cut up and pull out a can of whoop ass to save everyone on the plane. These are mindless barbarians. Educate yourself and defend yourself. It can't be that hard to prevent these goons from doing what they do. Now the Republicans on Fox are developing beady eyes!!!

Of coarse they're pissed our crazy culture in their silly dessert, but that's the chance we have to take as long as there is $$$ in the middle east... I'm ranting now. This is the longest political post I've ever made. I'm voting for Kerry and am going to hope he does a better job than Bush. If not, bring on the next one. We got to start somewhere.
