Ok.....ok so... does anyone else think its a terrible idea to allow a United Arab Emirates company to take over six major U.S. seaports?  Cause I'm pretty sure thats a fucking TERRIBLE idea, and I'm pretty sure the Bush Administration already gave them the go ahead for the takeover..

Did you know that some of the 911 hijackers used the United Arab

Seriously....how do people still support this administration after all this shit he has pulled... I mean, it's all out on the table and some people still practically worship that asshole... BUT WHY?! He cant even answer questions in a live press conference because he has no idea what the fuck hes talking about.... its PAINFUL watching him try to answer a question on the spot.....its actually embarassing

I'm not spoon fed by my parents or TV. Seriously. My mom is a moderate and my dad is a liberal, and I've chosen to lean towards democrat because I agree with a lot of democratic views. But really, how else can I learn about what's going on in politics if I dont watch TV or read the paper or listen to it on the radio. I get info from different sources and I listen to other peoples opinions but its not going to change my own and I do not support Bush. And Im not saying I wish Kerry would have come through just to get Bush out of office. I considered Kerry's agenda and Bush's and I didn't care for Bush at all. I was pissed off when he was elected, then I got over, and then he started pulling this kind of shit and I think this administration is crooked as hell.

I didn't say YOU in particular were spoon-fed just most of the people in our demographic. That's how you learn, you watch TV, read the paper, listen to the radio but always take what you hear with a grain of salt and try to compare it to other sources to find out the real truth about what's going on. I agree that this administration is pretty messed up, but I think whoever was put in power would be doing some similar things. Politicians do not instill confidence in me, Democrat or Republican

Yeah, I read through as much of that thread as I could but it was fucking long...but anyway I read all those things you pointed out, and I like how someone mentioned "How on earth they thought they could get away with this when they've spent the last few years furiously demonizing muslims is a mystery to me." and then Bush is arguing that "I want those who are questioning it to step up and explain why all of a sudden a Middle Eastern company is held to a different standard than a Great British company." They're all up to no good and a lot of people are buying into everything they are telling them. That really pisses me off....

And yeah maybe another politician put into power would have done the same shit, but that doesn't make it ok for Bush to do it. But whatever. And just because I don't like Bush doesn't mean I won't consider John McCain or other Republicans in other elections, but at this point I really just can't wait for Bush to get the fuck out of office...
