<p>yeah hey....even liberals who can't stand his policies and would never vote for him admit he's very very intelligent. I realized this after listening to Teri Moran speak once, he's the White House correspondent on ABC nightly, and very liberal (to the point where he can't hide it)---but he travels with the pres all the time because of press conferences and stuff, and he's said somethign about the fact that Bush is a man that definitely knows waht he's doing and where he's going. (he has said this outside the news of course)</p>
<p>filmxoxo: thats a good "or" </p>
<p>mind if i steal it?</p>
<p>go ahead.

<p>of COURSE he <em>IS</em> dangerous... especially to liberals like you. You should fear him. He's made Demcorats seem so much weaker in teh eyes of the American public. </p>
<p>liberals fear him to death because he's been able to motivate so many more Republicans to vote and become active in the political arena (ie: CHristians that didn't vote inthe last election) and so liberals spread all this crap about having a theocracy...when really americans are just sick of having secular/anti-God people shove down THEIR views down everyone else's throat. </p>
<p>he's been able to attract a lot more Hispanic votes and a lot more Asian votes. My mom is Korean and says we need Bush because of North Korea and the fact that he doesn't put up with the same ***** the Clinton administration did---also, the South Korean President is a corrupt dumba*s </p>
<p>Osama Bin Laden fears for his life, and the terrorists hate Bush's guts. Saddam Hussein sits in a jail cell, I doubt he will be very defiant in the presence of our President.</p>
<p>wow okay that post might hav been a little overboard, i sound so angry...LoL.</p>
<p>but yeah i do get really mad when people ahve the nerve to compare someone liek Bush to a dangerous dictator....yet they'd rather have someone liek Saddam stay in power? </p>
<p>It's all too hypocritical and sad. While we are in Afghanistan, American troops haven't exactly been ordered to force everyoen to practice Christianity and do everything the way Americans do it....They ahve promoted freedom and wnat to prove that it is adaptable even in an Islamic country.</p>
<p>fire and brimstone, here we come! george will sentence me to eternal damnation, because i am a godless liberal. get real.</p>
<p>hey plenty of atheists voted for Bush too...it has nothing to do with your faith or lack thereof. it may not be your fault, but very prominent liberal organizations such as the ACLU have put off an image of "tolerance for everything not Christian"</p>
<p>Ok. Pixie. Guess what. 20% of America doesn't believe in a God, and every single President has been religious, so quit it with the "seculars pouring their anti-God views down our throats" because we have always been in the minority.</p>
<p>Bush is creating a theocracy. Whether or not you want to believe it, it is happening. If you watched the RNC and Bush's speech, his backdrop, which included American Flags, also contained inladen crosses. Take a look if you don't believe me. His born-again Christian values actually bother me, and if you didn't like secular views being shoved down your throat, then don't return the favor by shoving your views down mine and making my atheism seem un-American. </p>
<p>The Democrats do need some backbone, and they are going to finally get some. After experiencing the wrath of Bush front groups like Swift Boat and other attack ads, the Democrats finally realize that politics is not just a place where one can state the truth and get elected. We now need to demonize the other candidate, which is sad, but it is the new lay of the land.</p>
<p>As I posted on the liberal forum, an independent study has confirmed that Iraq is now the world's largest breeding ground for this and the next generation of terrorists. So I guess us going in really didn't stop terrorism...but furthered its expansion...and all of us critics of the war now say with one resounding voice...TOLD YA SO!!!</p>
<p>what are you talking about? you dont even know me... i actually am a practicing christian, pixie, so i dont know where you're going with this. you see, my previous post was sarcastic. sound it out... sarcastic. and i dont belong to the aclu and i dont represent everyone with liberal opinions. sonow you know and next time you pass judgement on me, it will be a little more accurate.</p>
<p>i am sorry for assuming you were atheist. no, not all liberals are athiests. John Kerry was a practicing Catholic etc....</p>
<p>But i was jsut expanding on my post about why "Bush might seem dangerous" to liberals (even though i knwo you mean dangerous in different ways) i was saying, yes actually he IS dangerous---and it's becuase he's leader during what seemsl iek a modern-day religious revival in the country. And lucky for him, he has the support of the Christian right, who are stimulated by everything going on in the country and that's why Republicans have been successful in keeping majorities in Congress etc... because their views are more in line with the religious right...while the image a lot of major left wing people put on is one of utter rejection for religion esp Christianity.</p>
<p>Ok. Pixie. Guess what. 20% of America doesn't believe in a God, and every single President has been religious, so quit it with the "seculars pouring their anti-God views down our throats" because we have always been in the minority.</p>
<p>yeah but a very powerful minority...and i'm not referring to people liek you. unless you were one of the people that wanted to take out the microscopic crucifix that appears in teh LA County Seal. Even though it only symbolizes the fact taht Los Angeles was founded by a bunch of missionaries. The ACLU started a case against it saying the "tiny cross" is discriminatory, and the California Supreme Court judges agreed...and so now the county seal, which has been ours for years and years is completely different. </p>
<p>There's no crucifix, and the goddess Pomona, who was the center of the seal is taken out and replaced by a native american wearing a toga. there is no moer cross, it's a sun ors omething now. </p>
<p>I find that ridiculous, and it's just these little things and ways these peopel want to erase every Christian reference, even if it's within a HISTORICAL context. </p>
<p>so yeah secularists are in hte minority...but they have a lot of power, esp. in our state and national courts.</p>
<p>i liek the way this article puts it:</p>
<p>In affirming the traditional definition of marriage
in 11 state referenda, from darkest Mississippi to progressive enlightened
Kerry-supporting Oregon, the American people were not expressing their
"gay-loathin' ", so much as declining to go the Kelly route and have
their betters tell them what they can think. They're not going to have
marriage redefined by four Massachusetts judges and a couple of activist mayors. That doesn't make them Bush theo-zombies marching in lockstep to the
gay lynching, just freeborn citizens asserting their right to dissent from
today's established church - the stifling coercive theology of
political correctness enforced by a secular episcopate.</p>
