Vagabond Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 Well, the first presidential debate concluded a couple hours ago. Who does everyone think won? Did the outcome of the debate change anyone's mind? Me? I think Kerry cleaned Bush's clock. That may not be an elegant way to phrase it, but Bush looked like he had to use the men's room, the way he kept squirming up on the podium - as if he wanted to be anywhere but there. In my opinion, Kerry's delivery and message was on target and cut like a laser through Bush's tired, repetitive, bumbling delivery. I mean, whether you like Bush or Kerry or neither, regardless of what you think of the positions outlined by the candidates, Kerry was by far the better debater, and appeared much more presidential than W.
mr.piercy Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 >>> I'm from downunder so i dont know, but i hope that kerry guy wont start wars<<<<<
Vagabond Posted October 1, 2004 Author Posted October 1, 2004 That's probably a safe hope, regardless of who becomes president
swphreak Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 Kerry opened a can of whoopass on Bush. I'm really not anti-bush or pro-kerry, but I do think Bush is an idiot.
Rogue15 Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 if Kerry wins, i'm fleeing the country. that's all i have to say about that.
Lynk Former Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 I'm glad I don't live in your country in the first place, that's all I have to say about that.
Vagabond Posted October 1, 2004 Author Posted October 1, 2004 Rogue15, you might want to leave the country of W wins too. His little escapade in Iraq has done nothing but act as recruiting tool that exceeds Bin Laden's wildest dreams, making America much less safe than had Bush finished the job in Afganistan, where the real terrorists are. If Bush gets reelected, I wouldn't be surprised to see a small ship sneak a nuke into New York habor and detonate it, courtesy of Bush's misguided crusade against Sadam, who didn't disarm his WMDs for the inspectors because he no longer had any. Four more years of Bush = time to run to the hills.
Lynk Former Posted October 2, 2004 Posted October 2, 2004 Bush's little escapade has made Australia a bigger target too because of John Howard sucking up to Bush. I don't think economic stability is worth it when you sacrifice world relations, especially to the folks up north from us.
Darth333 Posted October 2, 2004 Posted October 2, 2004 Originally posted by Lynk Former Bush's little escapade has made Australia a bigger target too ... In fact, not only Australia but the whole world. And now the Bush administration wants to force us Canadians to accept the planned ballistic missile shield otherwise we will be excluded from the "defence architecture of North America" as they say ( I think Australia is involved too)...as Vagabond says, Bush is carrying on a crusade...I wish the world had evolved a bit more since the Medieval times...really I hope Bush is not reelected. He is the worst thing that can happen to the world in terms of stability and safety.

Sabretooth Posted October 2, 2004 Posted October 2, 2004 Well, I'm not American, but If I were, I would be with Kerry.
Vagabond Posted October 2, 2004 Author Posted October 2, 2004 And regarding Bush's fantasy missile shield, the thing is going to cost hundreds of billions of dollars, for an embryonic system that they tested in highly artificial scenarios, where the target is unrealistically broadcasting its position. And despite all this, the missile shield still has an abysmal success rate. So, not only is this so-called shield a huge waste of money, but it scarcely even works, and at the same time has gotten everyone all worked up. At least of the thing worked, I could sort of see the justification. But as it stands now, it's just another colossal error in judgment.
Vagabond Posted October 3, 2004 Author Posted October 3, 2004 Don't let the door hit you on the way out Just kidding
Ranre Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 If Bush wins I'm staying in Hawaii. They dont really change us so why move:D . But America is in $900,000,000,000,000 in dept. and yes that is the correct amount of 0's. So if bush come prepare for a draft, if Kerry comes get out your blaster and defend you home. Even though I'm being Very optimistic, that's what I've heard from my good friend Senatorial District 5 Don Couch.
Lieutenant_kettch Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 both of em are against the draft... it's congress that is trying to bring it back... and i don't know where you got your info, but the us debt is roughly 7,441,614,011,731, and that is similar to most gov't sites Edit: heyyy, if we do have to defend our own homes, at least we have assault weapons to do it with:D
Lynk Former Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 Originally posted by Lieutenant_kettch Edit: heyyy, if we do have to defend our own homes, at least we have assault weapons to do it with:D First time there was a gun incident down here in Australia everyone freaked and gun laws became tight as all hell, the government even had this buy back scheme where the government BOUGHT the guns from people so they could all be destroyed.
Lieutenant_kettch Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 then good for australia, at least you guys don't have to worry about getting shot at or something... and in australia, i think banning guns or whatever the details of what is done down there is perfectly acceptable. However, in america, if our founding fathers wanted guns, i want guns

abcd1234 Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 Originally posted by Lieutenant_kettch heyyy, if we do have to defend our own homes, at least we have assault weapons to do it with:D That is a bad thing. The ban on assault rifles should have been held up. There is absolutely no reason that a person needs to own a gun of that power. I think it is just asking for trouble.
