Somebody explain this to me, I must be stupid.
Trauma-san:
O.K., somebody explain this to me, I can't get my mind around it.
The presidential election is coming up. I have to vote. O.K., here's my choices.
1. A guy who is bombing the fuck out of all of our enemies in the world, killing them before they get a chance to come over here. Also, he cut taxes, and sent me a check for $500.00. He plans on cutting taxes further, and is expected to create 2.7 million jobs in the next year, and his tax cuts have sparked the fastest growth in the economy in 20 years.
Or.
2. There's several other candidates, all running on the ideas that a., they will immediately stop attacking all of our enemies, and b. they will repeal the tax cuts, raise taxes, and I guess recall the economy?
I'm confused as to why I would vote for #2, what again do they have to offer America?

You consider this a good thing.. ??
Bomb them before they come to America ?
Also, I thought Bush used $XXX million more than planned on the war, but people in U.S. gets a different story maybe ?

No, we get the same story, but the liberal media is suspect sometimes, and should not be listened to.
But war economies do help the country, that's been proven over and over again. Even in the 60's, during Vietnam, we had one of the healthiest economies ever, even with a unpopular war. The only economy that didn't expand during war was George H. W. Bush's because more was lost after the Cold War than was gained with Gulf War I, and that war was a Allied mission, so we didn't spend as much as we did with Gulf War II and the Afganistan War. But the economy growing fast is not good, because it could come down. The largest economy since the 60's was the late 90's. Since then we had seen a huge slide, one that people knew was coming after the economy growing so much, but was not suppose to dip so low. Bush Jr.'s tax cuts did hurt the economy because no one was spendng their money, but instead programs got cut and the debt grew larger after it was planned to be gone in 17 years under the Clinton plan, now we are back to being in debt again.
Though non of the Democrats outside of Edwards really does anything for me. Dean at onetime was my man, but his trying to hard to be the candidate that appeals to everyone, and in turn has said some stupit things that a doctor should not. I would trust him as the Atterney General and deal with health issues, maybe even a plan to get Universal Health Care, but right now, his issues outside of Health Care is not consident, except his opposition of the war.
Don Breezio:
i could give a fuck less how much they raise taxes...we can either not have enough money to live off of...or we can have more and more people die ever day...i choose to live thankyou very much (and before some dumb motherfucker says that im not old enough to pay taxes yes i am and i do thankyou very much)
Don Jacob:
i really don't know who to vote for, at first i was like , hey i might vote for bush, but after we took iraq, i was all hmmmmmm where's the WMD i trusted you man, then i was all dean, dude is fucking cool, then i see him on the news every night looking more dumb than bush comes off to european. so i'm left with crazy black guy with bigger boobs than my mom (sharpton), lurch (kerry) , or tevia lite (liberman)
crazy ass election , crazy ass election, that's all i have to say
