13. I'm a male voter
Edited on Fri Apr-30-04 12:40 PM by bigtree
I'm as rough and aggressive as they come. My personal concerns are my living wage, taxes, security, all of the issues that get a lot of heat but very little light. The last thing we need to do is pander to mindless testosterone-laden appeals. We need serious and sensitive examinations of policy and direction of our government. You can't do that with a neanderthal's club, with some beer-boasting, puffed up rhetoric.

Just what is it that appeals to you about Bush and Cheney's "fight" ?!!!! What's "tough" about their deceptions and lies? What nonsense to suggest that anything they have done is manly or mature. What nonsense to suggest we should ape their behavior, like some high school brawling, or some jack-ass argument. If we allow our party to be pulled down into the dumb-ass machoism that is glorified by know-nothing media and ignorant infantiles then we will only have ourselves to blame for the dumbing down of America.
