Thursday afternoon I had a very nasty near miss, but the type most Americans dream of 
North bound on I-89 in New Hampshire a line of 10 black cars of various shapes and sizes with lights flashing, followed by 2 coaches with blacked otu windows and the words “BUSH CHENEY” written along the sides, followed by about 10 more black vehicles with lights flashing. Not exactly an inconspicuous way of driving the President of the USA around
I hope the pig noticed my British flags 
If it was a near miss, you didn’t try hard enough Pat.
It was probably him who nicked your Union Jack!
He needs all the votes he can get Pat, so does our Tony
God Bless Boris Johnson 
Kerry…who is he…■■
VOTE BUSH, its the ONLY way
Vote libertarian! Vote for the best President the US will never have!
Bush is the reason we now pay so much for fuel Bush thinks nothing of working class people Bush works for the rich
Bush has taken the best ever budget surplace from Bill Clinton and turned it into the biggest budget deffecit in the history of the USA
When Clinton was in power it was $1,37 to the pound, it is now $1.84 to the pound and rising. Oil is priced in Dollars, if this was a democratic country and it was still at the low rate oil would be about $30 a barrel, not $50
Bush is a liar He lied to start a war just to try and gain support from the citizens of this country Bush started a war for the sake of oil
And last but not least Gore won the popular vote, Bush stole the Presidency 
He is not the true president
God Help us all if Gore had been in power when 9/11 came. We would have been attacked at least twice since then.
DEMOCRATS = LILY LIVERS
You won’t find a Kerry supporter in my business, let me tell you that.
God Bless America…God HELP America if Kerry gets in.
Stuart
Of course NOT
You are in the oil trade
Everyone in the gas and oil trade loves George Bush… he’s making them even richer.
And Gore would have handled sept 11 much better… something tells me he wouldn’t have sat on his conservative ■■■ in florida reading ■■■■ and Jane books to 6 year olds when he knew the attacks were going on. The world hates us a whole lot more now that George Bush is in power… and who can blame them.
I don’t wanna argue with you guys. But as far as reading books to 6 year olds in Florida. What was he supposed to do, get up, scream oh my god, and run from the room, upsetting all the kids…■■
Kerry hasn’t got the balls to protect America. I know that I am better of under Bush, he has given me two tax checks in the recent past totally $1000.
Kerry will also affect the right to arm, we will no longer have the right to open, or concealed carry a firearm, ask the NRA, they’ll tell you. I carry concealed and open depending on mood, its one of the reasons we have substatially less firearm related crime in Arizona.
It also, isn’t Bush putting up the prices at the pump, its partly to do with the US Senate. One way or the other they WILL go down after the election.
I have access to Arizona rack fuel prices, and I can tell you, that the majority of these price raises are in response to panic buying and greedy gas station operators. Obviously, the gas companies are going to keep prices at these levels if the supply is meeting the demand, why reduce prices when people are still buying the fuel. I can tell you that there is just as much if not more demand now than there was four years ago when the price was 0.91cents a gallon. People still drive the SUV’s and gas guzzlers, so its partly the people who keep the prices high. Stop buying it for pleasure and the prices will fall.
Thats not Bushs fault.
You know, I was just back home in Edinburgh last week, and I spent a lot of time arguing with the natives about Kerry/Bush, who is better, its getting crazy, but if you don’t live here, you’ll never know.

And the only 2 options were to keep playing kindergarten teacher when the nation is being attacked… or scream & panic like an idiot■■? If those were his only 2 choices then he definitely doesn’t deserve the position… there is such a thing a subtlety…or a calm but rational response… he just doesn’t know that.

Since when does your $1000 tax rebate have anything to do with Kerry protecting America. If you do your homework, you’ll see that he was fighting in Vietnam while George Bush was AWOL from the national guard… don’t insult my intelligence on that one. And you must be in the higher economic group then if you got a rebate… we certainly haven’t seen one.
Kerry will also affect the right to arm, we will no longer have the right to open, or concealed carry a firearm, ask the NRA, they’ll tell you.
The NRA will tell you anything they can to get the legal right for 8 year olds to buy and use oozies… so give me a break. Kerry has no intention of changing any concealed weapons laws… only bringing back the assault weapons ban. Anybody that has a problem with that must be nuts.
It also, isn’t Bush putting up the prices at the pump, its partly to do with the US Senate. One way or the other they WILL go down after the election.
Will they really? I doubt it. And its Bushes policies that effect that. Not the senate. Oil prices are set in the global market, and his foreign policies have a direct influence on that. I don’t hear people complaining about the taxes they pay on fuel, just the extortionary rate of increase since the entire Iraq situation has started. And the majority of fuel tax is set by the individual states… not the federal government. The federal tax of fuel is minimal.
I can tell you that there is just as much if not more demand now than there was four years ago when the price was 0.91cents a gallon.
Hmmmmm 0.91 cents a gallon 4 years ago… and now its $2.09 per gallon… lets see… what happened 4 years ago that could have increased fuel costs by over 100% … OH YEAH… BUSH was elected… (well… almost elected)…
but if you don’t live here, you’ll never know.
Born and raised American… so save that line for your friends in Edinburgh.
Kate, your turning this into a slinging match, I don’t care to argue with you, I am entitled to my opinion on it. I don’t care for Kerry or any of his lily livered friends, but thats my personal opinion, I don’t try to shove it down anyones throats.
As far as taxes go, those were child rebate and married person rebate checks.
Firearms, I, here in Arizona am entitled to carry whatever I please, this includes an assault weapon, of which mine are an AK-47 and an AR-15, I don’t go out on the streets with them, I am armed 95% of the time with a simple 9mm.
The line “If you don’t live here, you’ll never know” is a line I told me friends in Edinburgh. I used it because people in Edinburgh, I don’t believe, know the full story of life here in America, other than what is broadcast on the nightly news. They obviously don’t care for whoever may be in the White House, if it had been Gore, you would have heard the same thing. My quote was not aimed at you or any other person in the US, it was purely a figure of speech.
You guys in the North East are quite obviously staunch democrats, and thats up to you. Like I said, everyone is entitled to their opinion, not everyone will agree with you and rightly so. This is the land of the free and a good democracy.
SO, like I said, I don’t care to argue, you have your opinions, I have mine, I guess, we will beg to differ.
Stuart
I’m not arguing… just voicing my own opinion, same as you are. And with all due respect, if you aren’t prepared for a political debate, then you should have read the post and restrained from voicing your political opinion to begin with. We all have different issues that matter to us, and apparently you and I are very different… thats what makes the world interesting. And just so you know, New York state, like the majority of the north east, is predominantly republican… I’m a registered independent.
And the only 2 options were to keep playing kindergarten teacher when the nation is being attacked… or scream & panic like an idiot■■? If those were his only 2 choices then he definitely doesn’t deserve the position… there is such a thing a subtlety…or a calm but rational response… he just doesn’t know that.
Kate, most conservatives only see the world in extremes: black/white, right/wrong, for/against, with no middle ground allowed. Our populace is becoming more immature and selfish every day, and this childish mindset appeals to people who have never fully matured. Sad, actually…
BTW, Kate, New York as a whole is predominantly Democrat, and hasn’t gone for a republican in a presidential election since Reagan. Kerry is something like 10% ahead of the dope in NY right now and they’ve conceded the state already.
I know that the New York city metropolitan area and the southern “upstate” region is mostly democratic. County by county, I’m pretty sure republicans out number democrats, but population wise, you’re probably right since the majority of New York citizens are downstate. The majority of northern upstate and the capital district is republican. I couldnt tell you the last local democratic leader up here, and I’ve actually stopped paying attention. Those elections are pointless anyway, cause half the time there’s only one person to vote for. It’s as if the democrats know they’ll be beat, so don’t even bother putting a candidate on the polls. Like I said, I’m neither republican nor democrat… I have conservative views about some things, and liberal views about others… and don’t particularly want to be labeled one or the other. A lot of people seem to pick their political party based on only one issue… for some its gun control, for others its abortion, for some its taxes, or medicare, ect … a lot of times they aren’t looking at the big picture… and I don’t see how anyone can agree on every aspect of either party, since… like you said Alex… everything is NOT black and white.
