He is on a speaking tour for publicity because he is a sycophant as most hollywood types are and because he can milk $10G's a pop speaking at universities around our nation. He says that there is no terrorist threat. Really? I can think of over 3,000 families that had loved ones die on 09/11 that would beg to differ. What qualifications does Michael Moore have to comment on security threats to our nation? Is he better qualified to asses a threat than our commander-in-chief? Someone mentioned in a previous reply that George W. Bush allowed 9/11 to happen and used that as an excuse to go war mongering, are you kidding me. It is well documented that Bill CLinton had ample opportunities to obtain Osama Bin Laden, in fact the arabs offered to hand him over to the Clinton administration, but Clinton refused and in case you are wondering about my source, read the Book "The American Prophecies" for some hard facts.
Michael Moore is an opportunist and a fat sloppy one at that. He is not brilliant, or exceptional in any way, he is simply a critic who made a movie with a lot of conjecture and unsubstaintiated opinions disguised as facts.
George W. Bush is not perfect and he has made his share of mistakes along the way, but I believe that while he is not the most eloquent of speakers, he is honest and he wants the best for the people of this nation. Bush doesn't believe that everyone is entitled to something just because they were born here. He believes that if you work hard and pay your dues you can succeed and I believe that too. John Kerry believes that everyone is entitled to something whether they bust their butt or not. With that ideology what is the motivation to work hard, after all even if you are lazy you'll get yours from the government anyway, and you will get yours from the sweat off the backs of people who are motivated and work hard. I for one am tired of paying every lazy man or womans way. I went to college, paid my dues and worked hard to make good money and it took an enormous amount of sacrifice, but it has been worth it. My tax bracket is 40%, John Kerry and his wife paid a tax rate of 12% with an income in excess of $5,000,000, count the zero's folks. Kerry is a hypocrite and condems Bush for giving tax cuts to people like him. He wont get that tax bill repealed either because he will be trying to appeal to a Republican dominated Congress. During Bush's administration we saw the lowest mortgage interest rates in over 50 years which enabled home ownership to be at its highest rate ever. Bush's tax cuts put money in peoples pockets and I for one am for that idea. Kerry talked in his debates about the Bush administration outsourcing jobs, but did you know that john Kerry's family ownes 18 factories that are located outside the United States, talk about outsourcing! He should clean his own house before commenting on the cleanliness of his neighbors. John Kerry is an attorney as is his running mate. Folks,enough said. |
"Dissent is the highest form of patriotism." --Thomas Jefferson, one of the founding fathers of the Constitution.
I don't believe everything Michael Moore or John Kerry say about the Bush Administration. But then again, I don't eat everything the "commander in chief" feeds to the people. Control is this presidential cabinet's first priority. To control the masses is to hold the power, "the will of the people." You don't need much rationale to convince people into thinking that Saddam Hussein is a linked terrorist acomplice, or that the world is submerged in a pool of terrorism hidding in a nearby country, or that the war in Iraq is a just and fair war for the liberation of Iraqis. All you need, in order to convince the "American" people that all of this is true, is use the "values" appeal and people will follow. Values in "America" got Bush re-elected. Values in "America" drives young men to war. Values in "America" drives this country to the point of exploitation of other third world countries. Values in "America" call upon the name of "God" to revolt against the rest of the world, and our neighbors, if they don't agree with what we believe. Values in "America" got thousands killed on 9/11 and in Iraq.
The politically-driven religious right in "America" is going to get us all killed. It is extremist evangelicals that are running this country now and for as long as religion values continue to drive the majority of "America," we will always be in trouble.
So, now the question is, "ask not what your country can do for you, but ask what you can do for your country." -- JFK.
