all politicans lie and decieve

yes, however, in this case, this *one* deception and its repurcussions
and the deception it has led to has resulted in the loss of american
soldiers, lots of them, and a lot more after the fighting was "over"
than before that. it has also led to gross (quantitavely, not
qualitatively) negligence and prisoner abuse among other things that
have not only violated the Geneva Convention, but also other
international laws and treaties, but served to distance the United
States from most of our allies world wide.

3rd parities are the only alternative

i still firmly believe that no 3rd party will ever have a signifigant
impact on a national level. as terrible as that is, i think it would
be great of they did, all they serve to do is function as a spoiler,
like in 2000.

theres no difference between bush and kerry

well, there is a tiny little difference, and thats better than no
difference at all, right?

personally, i dont like kerry all that much at all, but hes the only
choice. i said this two years ago, and its still true, this election
is not Bush vs $CANIDATE, its voting for or against Bush.
Unfortunately, thats a 2 way vote, not a 3 way one.
