Liberals

I'm tired of hearing all this crap about how Kerry would be so much better as president than Bush. One thing that Kerry has promised to do, if elected, would be to roll back the tax cut that Bush gave us. I don't know about the rest of you, but I definitely don't want that to happen.

I'm reg'd as a Republican. Even though I don't make $200,000+ a year at the moment, I still don't think it is right for him to do that. If Kerry is elected that means he'll be in office for 4 years. Who knows, I might be making that amount of money a yr in the next 4 years. I was talking this over with my dad and found out that he got a tax break of $60,000 because of Bush. I admit, most Americans don't make $200,000+ a year. But let me ask some of you liberals out there, if you were making that much money and some politician wanted to tax you more because some lazy ass people wont get up and do something with their lives, why should we have to give more to the crackheads, prostitutes, welfare greedy people out there when bust our asses?

For all you liberals out there....think about this:

Since just about everyone on this site is/has been in college, lets say you are busting your ass making good grades....got a 3.0 GPA or better. Now lets say all your friends are out there partying their asses off, getting drunk all week long, dont show up to class half the time and never do their homework or study and they are just barely getting by with C and D grades. You, you're never going out...study every night, you even miss some football games inorder to stay ahead in the class and you basically give up any serious social life inorder to do good in college. Now, lets say some politician decides that they're going make sure all students have the same average GPA or better and for those of you who busted your ass, they're going going to take away points from your GPA and give them to those lazy students inorder for everyone to fair well. How would you feel? How would you like it if you were busting ass to get in med school but your GPA was knocked down because some football player had shitty grades or some frat boy got way too drunk his first semester and needed some of your grades so he could stay in school? Well, thats basically how John Kerry feels about the tax cut Bush gave. Seriously, think about it.

I don't know about some of you, but it is my view that the Government's purpose is to protect our people. They're supposed to make sure we have a good military, make sure we have roads, helps us when there are natural disasters, protect our rights and uphold the constitution.

Right now our country is serisously divided in half. John Kerry has made mention doing exactly the opposite of president Bush. He's the most liberal of all the Democrats. He's made mention of investing in science and making advances in technology. Well, do you really think we, as a world, need advances in technology? The last time a bunch of scientist got together and made a forever changing discovery was when we made the Atomic bomb. How many of you think the world is a safer place since nuclear weapons came in to play? There are limits as to how far things should be allowed to go. I'm not saying that we should not look in to finding cures for dieseases like Parkinsons's, Cancer, Alzheimers, etc etc etc. I'm all for it. All I'm saying is that there needs to be a limit set, a threshold that must not be crossed when it comes to science and technology.

Just my political 2 cents for the month.
