62. I think
The only reason people are holding their noses is because they are people who do not know the facts and are either those guilt ridden victim people that just feel every state/corporation/politician is evil, or they are so upset their candidate didnt get thru, they will do all in their power to make Kerry seem like less than he is.

I am not insulting anyone. I am expressing how I feel. I'm not telling you what to do, I'm letting you know I think it is arrogant and intrusive to tell me how Kerry is "the lesser of two evils".

If the election is about PATRIOT Act, Palestinian murders (who are the good guys because they are 'weaker'), and Iraq, then we're gonna lose.

It isnt. Its holistic.

And dont patronize me. Cognitive dissonance is exactly what is referred to in my posts; a disavowal of reality because it doesnt sync with beliefs held dear.

Reality - Kerry is what you all want
Reality - He won
Belief Held Dear - The system never lets the best man win

QED - Kerry is evil
