Prez nominess
I know, I know, this blog is getting too political, but now that I have more time to update my blog, I'll just make another commentary about 2004
I'll go over what I think the weakness and strenghts are in those running for Prez in 2004! Those weakness and strengths are measured by what I think make or dont make a candidate one that I would vote for!
1) John Kerry
Strength : military service, risked his life in Vietnam, pro-choice
Weakness: confuses the public over whether he's for or against the war on Iraq! A man like that has no business running for President! Take a stand or get out of the way!
Kerry is also elitist who can't relate to the regular man, and a gun control fanatic!
2) Dean Gephardt
Strength : willing to get tough on Saddam, can relate to the working class types
Weakness: his anti-trade agenda does more harm than good
3) Howard Dean
Strength : though considered left, he has been able to relate to private sector types, entrepreneurs, etc. Allowed for civil unions for same-sex couples. Also, willing to let states decide their own gun laws, whereas previous Dems wanted the Feds to force excessive gun laws on all of us. Also, pro-Balanced Budgets, not afraid to cut spending when gov. of Vermont. Also, not afraid to criticize the so-called partial birth abotion bans.
Weakness : A HUGE ONE is his lack of enthusiasm for the capture of Saddam and the deserved death of Saddam's sons! A man like that has NO bizness being Prez! Plus, his idiotic comment on the Confederate flag, which patronizes Southern whites and alienates blacks.
4) Joe Lieberman
Strength : tough on Saddam, pro-welfare reform, pro-private sector
Weakness : holier than thou attitude, whines excessively about violent and sexual entertainment, flip-flopped on affirmative action due to political convenience.
5) Al Sharpton
Strength: someone who can put white liberals on the defensive, especially when white liberals claim to sympathize with non-whites, when what they do is patronize. Can relate to ghetto residents and has experience empowering them. Stood up to excessive police brutality and racial violence
Weakness:THE HUGE ONE is his statement on Bill O'Reilly's show 2 MONTHS B4 9/11, when Sharpton said there was no threat to national security. A person who says that at any time has NO BIZNESS being Prez. Also, supports affirmative discrimination AND has abused the race card. Plus, his big government proposals will break the bank!
6) Dennis Kucinnich
Strength : has came to campaign in Hawaii whereas most candidates ignore it. That shows his humility and respect.
Weakness: soft on America's enemies, excessively socialist proposals on health care, education, etc. will bankrupt the nation without improving anything! Also, changed his stance on abortion JUST WHEN HE DECIDED TO RUN FOR THE DEMOCRAT NOMINATION!

7) Carol Mosley-Braun
Strength: an alternative to Sharpton, forcing Sharpton to not to take blacks for granted. Only woman running!
Weakness: too cozy with ex-dictator of Nigeria, corruption charges, couldn't win re-election for Senate
8) Wesley Clark
Strength: military career, giving Dems a tougher image without compromising Democrat positions on issues, fought against genocide in Bosnia and Kosovo, though wasn't for war on Iraq, at least he had more enthusiasm for Saddam's capture than Howard Dean
Weakness: Was at a GOP fundraiser in 2001, and now he wants to be a Democrat? Yet he expects to be taken seriously?
9) John Edwards
Strength: stood up to Howard Dean on the Confederate flag comment, demands that coastal elites respect the South and the Heartland
Weakness: too cozy with trial lawyers who put out frivolous lawsuits!
10) George W. Bush
Couldn't leave out the Republicans
Strength: tough on Saddam and Al Quaida, allowed concealed weapons when gov. of Texas, not willing to the politically correct fanatics when it comes to foreign policy and the environment
Weakness: claims to be for smaller government while increasing spending on everything, unwilling to end an excessively punitive drug war policy, Ashcroft's hatred of civil liberites, too cozy with the Religious Right, too-anti-abortion!

The Bike-Path Left
Saddam? Osama? Whatever, dude!
BY MARK STEYN

Like Susan Lucci at the Emmys, Howard Dean is getting better at putting a brave face on things. When Saddam Hussein fell from power, the Vermonter said churlishly, "I suppose that's a good thing." When Uday and Qusay bit the dust, the governor announced that "the ends do not justify the means."
So what does get the Dean juices going? A few days later, the governor was on CNN and Judy Woodruff asked him about his admission that he'd left the Episcopal Church and become a Congregationalist because "I had a big fight with a local Episcopal church over the bike path."
And that's our pugnacious little Democrat. On Osama bin Laden, he's Mister Insouciant. But he gets mad about bike paths. Destroy the World Trade Center and he's languid and laconic and blasé. Obstruct plans to convert the ravaged site into a memorial bike path and he'll hunt you down wherever you are.
That's what Howard Dean represents--the passion of the Bike-Path Left.
Vermonters marked the end of the Dean era by electing a Republican governor and a Republican House. To Democratic primary voters across the land, Vermont is a shining, rigorously zoned, mandatory-recycling city on a hill. And the only way up the hill is by the bike path.
A little over an hour north of that Burlington bike path is Montreal, the visits to which (for kids' hockey fixtures and his appearances on a Canadian TV show) Dr. Dean cites, seriously, as his main foreign-policy experience. Montreal is home to North America's largest Iraqi émigré community and on Sunday night the streets were full of honking horns celebrating Saddam's downfall. You don't have to go far to see the world beyond the good doctor's bike-path parochialism, but it's farther than most Dems are willing to go.
My commentary : If Dean wins the Democrat nomination, he WILL NOT win the general election, regardless of whatever flaws George W. Bush has! All Bush has to do is show commercials with Dean's comments on Hussein's capture saying in a sarcastic manner "I suppose that's a good thing." Then the commercial will say "Suppose?" and a few more comments, and that's it! Dean will be finished!
It will implicitly say that Dean appeases dictators and terrorists, just like Bush Senior's ads saying Dukasis coddles violent felons.
The only way Dean will win is if W. Bush doesn't make that ad and doesn't remind people of what Dean has said!

Howard Dean shoots himself in the foot
Dean's biggest weakness in 2004 elections (if he wins the Democrat nomination) is NOT his support of gay civil-unions. It will NOT be because of his lefty image, since he's not as far left on issues like guns and balanced budgets. It will be because lack of enthusiasm for the capture of Saddam and the death of his sons! It WILL haunt him come Nov. 2004. That will be like what Willie Horton was to Michael Dukasis. (and to you race card abusers - IT DOESNT MATTER if Willie Horton and Hussein are non-whites! They're dangerous scumbags, plain and simple!)
And though Lieberman is a longshot for the Democrat nomination, I would say he's WAY MORE SERIOUS on the issue of the Islamic terror than Dean is!

SADDAM' S CAPTURED! -TIME TO PARTY!
Now that Saddam is captured, we should pray for his torture. We already know that he is guilty for crimes against humanity, what more proof do we need!
We ought to be celebrating this, as one tyrant has fell! Next is bin Laden!
President Bush ought to order assinations of Kim Jong Il, Fidel Castro, Robert Mugabe, Muamar Qadafi and other tyrants to show the world we wont tolerate that kind of crap! All poltical correctness goes out the window when dealing with punks like them!
