Quote from TM_Direct:
Ok Bung, are you and i going to fight all day or what????
Let's be realistic: You and the other posters hate GWB and his party...that is fine, but PLEASE don't pretend that you a) actually care where he is b) are concerned about how he preforms his vp duties..LOL....cmon guys, tell me what all the past VP's did that you can remember???? Gore invented the internet , Quayle entered spelling bees and fought with Murphy Brown, GW dodged the limelight of Iran contra....do you really care what cheney's is doing or are you just wanting to pound on the political ground?
That is a great question, TM, and I'm up for "fighting" as long as you want.

I may be totally wrong on all of this, and if I were to pray for something, it would be that I AM wrong about it, because what I see makes me extremely angry at a government that is supposed to be guarding my rights as a citizen (civil rights, the right to make alot of money, and the right to be pretty safe). All I've seen from the Bush administration is a serious jeopardization of all three of those rights that I care so much about.
I thought it was implied that I actually believe in what I am posting. To me, I see this huge fraud perpetuated upon the American people by a dishonest leader, and I see alot of Americans who seem to be trusting this administration blindly.
That last part about blind trust (or faith) is what troubles me so much. While people were "trusting" Reagan, we had S&L scandals and the Iran-contra affair. And while people were "trusting" Clinton, we had the Lewinsky bullshit (which I personally don't care about, but I think it has a place here) and God knows what else.
The whole play by Bush to the religious right doesn't smell right to me. When you have a politician trying to appeal to the religious emotions of the voters, something is usually wrong (case in point: Bin Laden).
And the obvious disappearance of Cheney, combined with the HAL contract (before the war is even over), combined with HAL not disclosing how much the contract was worth, nor disclosing precisely WHAT Cheney's involvement was with this contract simply does not smell right to me.
THAT is why I am so interested in where Cheney is --- because I want to know WHAT THE HELL HE HAS BEEN DOING FOR THE LAST 2 YEARS???????????
In 2005, when we have a different president, rest assured that I will openly criticize anything about him/her that I think is not right.
