Can you tell one from another? Can you tell what party affiliation I am? Neither. I am registered unenrolled (independant). So are most people. I think one of the stongest influences in the undermining of the country would be bias media.

You can assume that I'm a "mindless automatons" because I tend to favor one party over another. You can assume that I'm a parrot, just repeating what I hear from right wing fanatics. You could assume but you'de be wrong.

I have never voted for a democrat. I have once voted for a republican. I have several times voted for an "alternative" party canidate, because I feel that we are in need of more alternatives.

I feel that I've been witness to a trend. A trend that I'm not too happy with. A trend of arrogance and selfrighteousness. A trend of which claims superior intellect are often heard. A trend from a party that I haven't voted for.

This is a trend that I've grown up with living here in MA, where it might be expected. I didn't realize how wide spread it was. Not that it's a majority, but that it's so loud, in your face, hateful, and rude. It's been referred to as the radical left, by even democrats. It appears to me to be quite counterproductive.

Chavez for president may sound totally insane. For some in this country it would be a welcome change. Do these people really realize what they are saying when they praise this dictator of Venezuela? I'm a bit concerned that it's possible for these people to be a majority in this country. That would defy common sense.

 

This begs the question... Do stupid people know that they're stupid people?

I heard part of the speach Chavez made at the church in the Bronx. He was being cheered for attacking our President. WTF? I wasn't particularly proud of Bill Clinton being our President; but, he was. I can say what I want about MY president; but, if someone, from another country, says it, especially to my face... IT'S ON! It's as bad as talking crap about my family. If I do it (and I don't), that doesn't give you license to follow suit.

 

Chavez isn't saying anything the Democrats haven't already said about President Bush.

 

Democrats are supposed to be Americans, too. Regardless of what they say about Bush, it should bother them when a leader from another country comes into ours and speaks so disrespectfully about our president to a gathering of Americans. The ones that cheered him should be ashamed; but, they probably aren't.

 

I agree totally.

 

U.S. dependence on foreign oil. It's a bitch ain't it?

 

You don't think that's why Jimmy Carter gave the last Venezuelan election the big for Chavez, do you?

 

Speaking of Jimmy Carter, can't we run our trucks on peanut oil?

 

Well Chavez hasn't blamed global warming on Bush yet so he can't be as bad as Democrats...

 

Chavez hasn’t screamed like a lunatic like Dean did. Chavez hasn’t grown a beard and went around hugging trees or whining about oil and acting like a nut like Gore has so I guess you could say Chavez is middle of the road liberal nut case and not a left wing extremist nut case.

I believe Chavez would kick Dean’s, Gore’s, Hillary’s, and John F’n Kerry’s *** in a democratic primary election. Many American’s are stupid enough to believe anything Chavez may say so I think the consensus would be that Chavez would have excellent odds at being elected President of the United States and then slaughter all media people, shut down all news papers and kill anybody that runs their mouths thus eliminating the vast majority of liberals who currently run their mouths.

If Chavez were President it could get quite peaceful in America AND we could drive our trucks and SUV'S all we wanted since gas would be about 20 cents a gallon…

 

Global warming is a hoax anyway, and Chavez isn't smart enough to understand it or algore's stunning hypothesis.

 

Other benefits of President Chavez:

EPA = GONE
OSHA = GONE
Unions = GONE
Welfare = GONE
Food Stamps = GONE
Medical and Dental for Welfare people = GONE
Homeless people = GONE
Disability for the useless and lazy = GONE
Law suits against big business = GONE
Liberals having the ability to voice stupid opinions = GONE (Priceless)

 

Well, when you put it that way it doesn't sound all that bad!
