1. Yes, how dare we encourage people of voting age to
exercise their right to vote. Shame on us.

And fuck you, GOP!

10. The GOP doesn't want young people to vote
because they know damn well that most young people are more liberal and vote Democrat. We're going to take back the White House and the GOP knows it.

11. Hey, kids don't want our debt. A lot of them want to stop the theft
Some of the most active workers against Bush in So Cal are kids, who drag their parents along for the ride. The kids are more eager to get rid of Bush than the adults.

15. So it is wrong to teach children how to participate in democracy...
... in a non-partisan fashion?

Thanks, Republican Party, for clearing up where you stand on democracy.

17. I can see them saying "well we all know that minorities are mainly Dems"
Edited on Wed Oct-27-04 03:26 PM by partisan to truth
(and that's why they think the Dem effort is 'partisan')...which only adds to the hypocrisy. Repuke tactic is just the opposite- ::stifle:: democracy by Preventing people from voting. Noble.

21. Uh. Tell the fuckers to look at most of Mark Kennedy's (R) ads.
He uses his children to tell us how great he is all the time. :eyes: And, as does he, the chilluns read off the cue cards very poorly as well. (can't politicians look at the camera and look genuine instead?!)

23. Like Freeper's stuffing kiddies Halloween bags?
with pure bullshit like 'Kerry got a Dishonorable Discharge'?

Puh-lease!


They play this *ATTACK the Dem's but we do WORSE* game ALL the time!
They've even acknowledged what a 'great little racket' it is.

Pure disgustation. And these freaks think they're going to Heaven!

Guess they haven't heard it's a sin to lie!

25. This would have been easier...
to say, "We don't want people to vote. When people vote, we lose."

REPUBS SUCK!

29. Kids? They are old enough
to go to war - they are old enough to vote. That makes them adults as surely as if they were holding a job instead of preparing for a job. It's an old arguement.
