will you be thinking of 9-11 when you vote? |

Edited on Thu Oct-28-04 08:06 AM by mopaul
how much of a factor is the nine eleven attacks in your vote? it's almost as if the incident were forgotten by the media. bush only exploits it, and no one wants to discuss it. how much will it affect your vote?
who really did it? do you buy the official story? why did bush stall the investigation and threaten daschle? did bushkkko allow it, or orchestrate it? is osama still out there plotting a worse one? are we safer or not? will president kerry be subjected to another bushkkko attack? are you scared yet?
will anyone be thinking about how it has, or has not changed everything?

THAT is what I would be thinking, too. 9-11 did not make Bush any kind of a hero in my book. What did he do? Just photo op on top of photo op. Big deal. Then went out and attacked the wrong country and got over a thousand of OUR troops killed and thousands of theirs! Yes, a great president.

That ANYone -- I mean ANY one -- can even THINK that Bush is a decent man, let alone a president. He hails from Nazi-lover stock and is a warmonger who is afraid of his shadow (in that he would not actually fight in a war - just push buttons)... and yet, people say they want to retain THAT in the white house! It is a lust for power is all it can be... as long as the Repubs can pull the chains and make the rich richer, they want to hold that power no matter WHAT sit sin the oval office chair. It is maddening to REAL Americans.

10. I think most/all Americans will be thinking of 9/11. |
|
And I think contrary to Bush's hijacking of the day as a political tool, it's going to backfire on him in a major way. Sometimes I wonder if Rove really thought that through. I mean, did he really want the majority of Americans to make the association: 9/11 = Bush?

12. I've been voting against Bush for a long time... |
|
As a Texan, I'd already done it twice before 2000.
9/11 is just another reason not to vote for him. Before the attack, criminal negligence is the most charitable term one could use. On the morning of 9/11 we saw craven incompetence. But he's been using that dreadful crime ever since as the reason to vote for him. And the reason to pass the Patriot Act. And the reason to start two wars.

13. When voting in 2001 - 2 smoking towers. Coming out - only one left |
|
(a neighbor's comment: "Woah! Your vote sure counts!) I'll think of 911 every time I vote for the rest of my life!

15. Yes, I will think of 9/11 |
|
and then I will think about this administration's response to it. That is one of the major reasons I'm voting for Kerry--he'll show up for work.

"Further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event- like a new Pearl Harbor."
I'm not saying they did it. I'm not saying they knew about it. All I'm saying is that they knew that they needed something like it to happen.
I'm all for changing our world for the better. But I'd rather not leave that giant(and most likely impossible) task up to military war gamers/theorists, multi-national defense contractors, trans-national corporations in general, and empire builders.

18. It will be a factor because * and OBL are two of a kind. |

Both are madmen who killed thousands of people because God told them to.
