Thread: We'd have been better off if Kerry had been elected

I've been stating that subject statement ever since Bush got elected to his second term, and I truly believe it today.

Just sit back, close your eyes, and think about how much different things would be today if that distasteful event had occurred.

Perhaps there would have been a call to make mortgages available to people who could not afford them? We know the Liberals would have pushed hard for this, and a liberal President would surely have wanted it as well.

Perhaps there would have been MASSIVE spending under President Kerry. After all, Democrats love to spend and spend. Maybe there would have been a huge transportation bill with big juicy piles of pork in it. Liberals love pork.

Perhaps, being a super-Liberal, Kerry would have pushed for an ultra-expensive health plan....maybe something along the lines of a prescription drug program.

And most importantly, we KNOW that Kerry would have pushed for Amnesty - hard. He might have even talked about Family Values not ending at the Rio Grande, or how the people here illegaly are still God's Children. Liberals like to tug at our heartstrings with sayings like that.

What about the war? Iraq is a nonissue as long as our ports and borders are wide open to anyone with a suitcase nuke.

Say now! Didn't all of these things actually happen under the watch of a "conservative Republican"? Go figure.

But consider this: had Kerry proposed these Liberal agendas, I can GAURANTEE you that the Republican-led congress would have stood firm and united against each and every one. Maybe not all...but it is still nice to IMAGINE Chris Cannon or Graham pounding the podium while speaking out against Illegal Immigration.

I firmly believe that the country would be just as screwed as it is today under Kerry, but I also firmly believe the 2008 Republican party would be united and strong, with a candidate worthy of our vote. Not the pandering liberal they have today. And Sarah Palin? They won't even let her voice an opinion on immigration, assuming she has one. It sickens me to read how many blindly support her as VP without knowing where she stands.

The only thing worse for Republicans than a Democrat President is a Republican President that drives a wedge between members of his own party at every opportunity. And McCain only promises to do that even more than Bush did.

The day Bush first floated Amnesty was the day I left the Republican Party. I knew he would never stop pushing it, and sadly I was right.

So what's my point? Promise yourself that starting this election, you won't vote by letter, but instead by issue. When Hannity, Medved, and Hewitt try to scare you by asking how you'll feel if "you wake up and hear <Fill in the name> is Predisent, or Speaker of the House, or Senate Majority Leader", just shake your head and laugh at your radio. Turn off those miserable RINO suck-ups and see what Numbers USA has to say about all of the candidates who want your vote. Where do they stand on the single most important issue facing our country today? Are they a (D)? An (I)? Who cares? Vote for them. Do they stand a chance of winning? Who cares? Vote for them.

I'm bloody sick to death of hearing the supposed conservatives piss and moan about how liebral McCain was and how they would never vote for him, only to hear them now talking about "holding their nose". I get the dry heaves listening to Coulter talk about how McCain is the better candidate, when she promised to vote for Hillary if McCain got the nod.

Folks, why do we constantly pick the shiniest turd in the bowl?

I don't care if the only candidate that promises to fix Illegal Immigration the way it needs to be fixed is a gay abortionist with 10 DUIs. That person will get my vote. I'm proud to say I am color-blind, party-blind, abortion-blind, pick your topic - I'm blind to it. There is but one litmus test these days - Immigration. I have two 5 year old children whose futures are riding on this, and I'll be damned if they're going to grow up seeing their country slowly turned into a third world nation.

The Republican party needs to reboot. It needs to get the good spanking it deserves. They've betrayed us, but good.

We all know most of the people on this forum are disgruntled conservatives. Grow a pair and refuse to hold your nose. Vote for or write in any candidate that shares your belief on this critical topic.

La Raza and Juan Hernandez smiles every time you vote for a RINO.

Incredible writing. I kept looking for John Lilpop's signature at the bottom of this one.

I remember that Amnesty speech too... That was the day I also left the Republican party!

I agree. I just don't understand this voting for the lesser of the two evils crap. Voting for the lesser of the two evils is what has gotten us into this mess in the first place. I wouldn't vote for these two candidates if both of them promised me 10 million dollars. I sure as hell am not going to compromise my beliefs to put an R or a D in office just because they are an R or a D.

I'm so sick of hearing just imagine how awful it would be if Obama wins. Listen, I don't care. I don't care if George Soros won, I still will not vote for McCain. I will not vote for a RINO sellout and I don't care if the third party guy I vote for doesn't win. At least I didn't waste my vote on a sellout traitor.

This party loyalty crap is just plain garbage. Too many stupid people in this country vote for the party no matter what as if the party really cares about them. Most of these idiots have no clue who they are voting for. I guarantee you most people voting for McCain or Obama have no idea who they are or even who their running mates are. Heck I bet they wouldn't even know who Dick Cheney is let alone Sarah Palin. That's what our country has turned into, a lazy, braindead, pansy, shell of it's former self.

So what's my point? Promise yourself that starting this election, you won't vote by letter, but instead by issue.

I don't know about the other two, but Hannity is the worst. He talks about being intellectually honest and yet he has never seen a RINO he doesn't like or wouldn't suck up to. I won't even listen to him anymore. He is nothing more than a RNC bootlicker. Even Rush is better at telling the truth then Hannity is.

Amen. I just stood in line for 2 hours for early voting to vote for Chuck Baldwin.

But it is that important that we have a conservative rather than dumb and dumber on the ballot next time. The Democrats did not learn, they put someone even more liberal and out there than John Kerry. Hopefully, the Republicans will take heed or Main Street will take notice of another alternative.

Outstanding post SealTheBorder1! I despise Kerry, as much as I despise McCain, so I can't really wish he'd been elected, but your points are well taken, especially concerning the response of the Republican-controlled Congress.

I sent in my Colorado mail-in ballot last week, and voted for Alan Keyes for Prez.

I don't know that I agree. Kerry and Bush are kin (cousins) and the way Kerry suddenly appeared the demo nominee when all odds were againt him was miraculous to say the least. Much like McCain coming out of nowhere, primarily hated by registered republicans. The two cousins, Kerry and Bush are both part of the same skull and crossbones fraternity. Of course their kinship was never reported on the Communist News Network (CNN) or the Mighty Socialist Network of Bull Chit (MSNBC) .

All his awards and citations in a combat zone are fake and fraud.
He as a leader/member of the Veterans Aginst the Vietnam war
voted to kill U.S. Senators and Congressmen.
He lied under oath about me, my friends, the men who fought there,
and lied about those who died there serveing and protecting you.
Kerry and the likes of him is how our country won a war and then
had lies and fraud loose it after the fact.

Any one who says they would vote for traitors and scum like Kerry
I will call out and just as low.

Now ban me from this site

Thank you very much
Some of will NEVER FORGET
