The thing about that isn't just what they support as far as taxes, health care, social security and this big piece of shit someone aptly named a "War on terror".... There is no war on terror. Don't you get it. The Bush administration is a corporation family with ties with the middle east. They go in and bomb "terrorists" (Iraq never tried to terrorize us so I don't know why people are calling them terrorists) and kill for fun and after the game is over they go back and rebuild everything and rebuild oil pipelines... hell, they're even running a new pipeline through there... after all of that they make some bucks, over 1,000 us troops lost their lives (Basically in their case they're saying "Fuck 'em... we made our money, let's retire") over nothing and you end up with a deficit and a downfall on what we had compared four years ago... Now where you draw a line is wether you support gay marraige or not. Also where you draw a line is wether you truly believe in freedom or civil liberty. Now this whole war on terror is supposed to be for the freedom of ourselves... um... as far as I know, Iraq never posed a threat on us... and our civil liberties are kind of being... oh... I don't know, misused by the bush administration and they're being taken away from us... The reason we don't have enough money for social security is that A). They've spent too much damn money... or B). There's too many baby boomers.... And logical sense tells me that for every dollar baby boomers put in there, they'll get it back because they already gave it to the government and they should still have enough money to pay them back since you loaned the government yours. So... picture this, you go into a bank and deposit money in for a retirement fund and it will collect interest after a while. You go in 50 years later to close your account and they tell you they don't have enough money to pay you back... what are you going to do... surely they owe you money... but they also owe other people just as much money and can't pay you back because of it... not to mention the fact that the bank is in a deep debt. I happen to be a promoter for patriotism. There's nothing wrong with patriotism. If you're a republican, conservative, or a Bush supporter and you're reading this... I know what you all are for. You're for patriotism. That's what you want isn't it... freedom? You want to support what this country was founded on when George Washington helped create it with our founding fathers and keep our reputation above our heads.... I believe that this country was founded greatly. By some of the most patriotic, courageous, and maybe the strongest people to ever live. This country was also founded by immagrants as well. People who came from other countries such as Germany, Poland, Ireland, England, Italy, Spain, Mexico, Canada, and France.... not just that, but even Asia in the 1900s... I happen to be a descendent of scotch-irish, english, german, dutch, and Japanese, Italian, and Indonesian immigrants. I'm also a descendent of King Henry VIII. My family has been historically, supporters of the republican party. I've always favored the neutral buffer zone of the Independents. Bascially, what I'm getting down to... our country was founded by Ethnic diversity. I kind of get tired of these people who are always referring to people as "Niggers, Jews, Chinks" etc. etc. I get tired of it. I had a friend who came on this forum and he was speaking on a German part of the forum and saying pro-nazi things and "zeig heil"... etc. I just don't get people like that. They won't support freedom. They won't support diversity. They won't support what this country was founded upon. That is why I support gay marraige and gay rights. Don't worry if you believe "They're going to hell if they do that"... It's not about having sex... it's about love. Love is all you need. If they love one another, is that really your own business of what they think or do in their own spare time. They're not running around chasing you going "Look at me.. I'm gay"... So I have to ask you this... if you're a republican and you believe in what your country was founded upon... a military supporter, a supporter of the constitution and the bill of rights... how can you bring someone down like that just because of what they believe in. We're all one here... and we're all in the same boat. It will always be that way. They tried to change that way in the civil war and they found it that it just won't work or happen that way. It's racism and descrimination that sets us apart. It's a love for freedom that brings us together. It doesn't matter who you're voting for. In 2000, I was a Bush supporter. It didn't take me long to realize that I had made a big mistake by doing that. I had different ideals back then. I supported military and patriotism. But I believe the issues dealing with this "war on terror", abortions, stem cell research, cloning, etc. has brought our country apart. I believe we need to set that straight... like... now... we need to do it now. I have nothing against Mr. Bush's personal life. That's his own business. That's not mine to deal with by judging how he is by what mistakes or things right or wrong he's done in the past. I'm a supporter of patriotism when it comes to true freedom and not for business. If you really supported patriotism and wanted your social security, why would you vote for Bush. It doesn't make any logical sense to me. Republicans are supporters of small business and family businesses... not large corporations. I support Kerry because I'm not a greedy or meterialistic person. It's not going to make or break you over a tax cut. I mean... it's not like you're going to lose your house. But the people running the corporations are the ones doing the most damage and gain to their own wallet. I could see your point if you were a greedy republican business owner. I support religious freedom. That's why I support gay rights. Not that gay rights or gay marraige are any of my business. But religious freedom is my business. Along with any other rights, civil liberties, or guarentees of freedom I do have. Because that just might be the only thing I have. Vote for freedom, 2004. Find the cost of freedom buried in the ground Mother Earth will swallow you, lay your body down ~ George

Operator: "Thank you for calling Pizza Hut. May I have your national ID number?" Customer: "Hi, I'd like to place an order." Operator: "I must have your NIDN first, sir?" Customer: "My National ID Number, yeah, hold on; it's 6102049998-45-54610." Operator: "Thank you, Mr. Sheehan. I see you live at 1742 Meadowland Drive, and the phone number's 494-2366. Your office number over at Lincoln Insurance is 745-2302 and your cell number's 266-2566. Email address is sheehan@home.net. Which number are you calling from, sir?" Customer: "Huh? I'm at home. Where d'ya get all this information?" Operator: "We're wired into the HSS, sir." Customer: "The HSS, what is that?" Operator: "We're wired into the Homeland Security System, sir. This will add only 15 seconds to your ordering time." Customer: (Sighs) "Oh, well, I'd like to order a couple of your All-Meat Special pizzas." Operator: "I don't think that's a good idea, sir." Customer: "Whaddya mean?" Operator: "Sir, your medical records and commode sensors indicate that you've got very high blood pressure and extremely high cholesterol. Your National Health Care provider won't allow such an unhealthy choice." Customer: "What? What do you recommend, then?" Operator: "You might try our low-fat Soybean Pizza. I'm sure you'll like it." Customer: "What makes you think I'd like something like that?" Operator: "Well, you checked out 'Gourmet Soybean Recipes' from your local library last week, sir. That's why I made the suggestion." Customer: "All right, all right. Give me two family-sized ones, then." Operator: "That should be plenty for you, your wife and your four kids, and your 2 dogs can finish the crusts, sir. Your total is $49.99." Customer: "Lemme give you my credit card number." Operator: "I'm sorry sir, but I'm afraid you'll have to pay in cash. Your credit card balance is over its limit." Customer: "I'll run over to the ATM and get some cash before your driver gets here." Operator: "That won't work either, sir. Your checking account's overdrawn also."Customer: "Never mind! Just send the pizzas. I'll have the cash ready. How long will it take?" Operator: "We're running a little behind, sir. It'll be about 45 minutes,sir. If you're in a hurry you might want to pick 'em up while you're out getting the cash, but then, carrying pizzas on a motorcycle can be a little awkward." Customer: "Wait! How do you know I ride a 'cycle?" Operator: "It says here you're in arrears on your car payments, so your car got repo'ed. But your Harley's paid for and you just filled the tank yesterday." Customer: Well I'll be a "@#%/$@&?#!&?#!" Operator: "I'd advise watching your language, sir. You've already got a July 4, 2004 conviction for cussing out a cop and another one I see here in September for contempt at your hearing for cussing at a judge. Oh yes I see here that you just got out from a 90 day stay in the State Correctional Facility. Is this your first pizza since your return to society?" Customer: (Speechless) Operator: "Will there be anything else, sir?" Customer: "Yes, I have a coupon for a free 2 liter of Coke". Operator: "I'm sorry sir, but our ad's exclusionary clause prevents us from offering free soda to diabetics. The New Constitution prohibits this. Thank you for calling Pizza Hut!"
