le Voyageur 72 Posted November 11, 2002 Share Posted November 11, 2002 No way to vote within your parameters so here's the way that I see this guy.. 1. All hat, no cattle 2. Warmonger 3. Xenophobic 5. Party first, country second 6. Lacking a historical perspective 7. Self serving 8. Andrew Jackson reincarnated 9. Needs public speaking lessons 10. Lacking as a Commander in Chief Looking forward to the next election... Link to post Share on other sites
Rooster7 11 Posted November 11, 2002 Share Posted November 11, 2002 Fortunately, most of the country appears to differ with you gentlemen (given the recent elections). Throw all the insults you want, for the time being, sane people control the White House, Senate, and the House of Representatives. Link to post Share on other sites

denver4und@aol.com 10 Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 Wow. Rooster7, go buy a newspaper. "Most" of the country does not disagree with the poster. Neither Bush, nor the current Congress was elected by "most" of anything. Both were elected by razor thin majorities of those who cast votes. Since less than 100% cast votes, and the winners in viturally every race got only 51% of the votes cast, "most" never happened. The poster's point can be ignored, but should not be belittled (after all her 1st Amendment rights are equal to Rooster's). Bush and the current congress do not have a mandate. They barely had enough votes to get into office. They need to be treated with the caution that a marginal candidate(s)in non-definitive races deserve. They do not need to presume that they are God's chosen, 'cause they aren't anymore than the candidate here in Colorado that lost by 122 votes out of 168,000+ cast! Link to post Share on other sites
Rooster7 11 Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 denver4und@aol.com, I do read the papers...and the polls show that President Bush has the support of MOST Americans. In regards to the election results, although I detest this saying - it really is appropriate in this case - "Get over it!". Link to post Share on other sites

berkshirescouter 11 Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 I think there is one thing we can all agree on; The voter turnout in this country stinks and needs to improve. I am not voting here no choices. Link to post Share on other sites
RobK 10 Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 If you think about how the electoral college system in this country works, the popular vote totals become meaningless. For instance, here in Indiana there was no question that George Bush was going to win the state. How many Democrats here didn't vote feeling their vote was worthless? How many Republicans didn't vote feeling their vote was superflous? There's no way to know. But knowing that the majority of voters in the majority of states picked George Bush is good enough for me.

ASM7 10 Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 The POTUS happens to be the Honorary President of the BSA, much more honorary than the previous one. I'm real glad his name won't be on my son's Eagle Certificate. Link to post Share on other sites

denver4und@aol.com 10 Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 Now OldGreyEagle has a complaint! Wonder if the new bureau of politically correct Eagles (that's another thread) can open a sub-department of obtaining signatures from other, more pc presidents? Link to post Share on other sites
hops_scout 9 Posted January 31, 2003 Share Posted January 31, 2003 le Voyageur, I think you are a little mixed up..... everything you just stated is about Bill Clinton not George W Bush. I think Bush is doing a great job. He has my support (though that doesnt really matter since I cant vote ) By the way, what does this have to do with scouting??????????????
