If you are worried about the animals or environment than Bush is probably not your guy. There are some good 3rd party candidates that may fill that need for you, though. Both Bush and Kerry are hunters. http://www.all-creatures.org/cash/cc2004-su-bush.html "They say that Bush is an avid fisherman and hunter who picked up the “sports” from his father. On New Year's Day, he went quail hunting with George H.W. Bush, a member of Ducks Unlimited. " “Just remember it’s the birds that’s supposed to suffer, not the hunter.” – George W. Bush, advising quail hunter and New Mexico senator, Pete Domenici, Roswell, NM, Jan. 2004
Yeah, dude, Bush is a VERY avid hunter/fisherman... if you're worried about animals and the environment, Bush is DEFINITELY not who you want to vote for. Kerry isn't much better, but he's the lesser of the two evils.
they're both hunters. where i'm from, practically everyone's a hunter. makes me not want to date him, but as a president? doesn't sway me. they may both be hunters, but kerry's environmental record is impeccable. the sierra club, the nation's biggest and oldest environmental organization endorses him - and god bless them, this is one gung-ho-for-the-environment-we-go organization. he is also endorsed by the league of conservation voters - and his ranking within the league is the highest lifetime ranking of all the presidential candidates. and being good for the environment = preserving habitat = better for animals. examples of kerry's environmental legislation: *voted to restrict the building of roads in national forests, as well as voted against additional spending for building roads in national forests. *and voted to protect california deserts. *and led a senate campaign to stop drilling in the ANWR. *aaaaaand repeatedly worked to uphold the value of the clean water and air acts *promoted higher fuel efficiency standards *sponsored legislation that would make environmental protections a part of trade negotiations *aaaaand participated and took seriously conferences like earth summit and kyoto regarding climate. i could go on. of course i'm sure there are instances where he hasn't been perfect for the environment. but damn, he has a 96% approval rating from the league of conservation voters and that's pretty damn impressive! i think kerry is more than a little better than bush, he is WORLDS apart! he has one of the best environmental voting records of all time. kerry is definitely what we need for the environment. i guess what you were saying was more about animals, but if bush gets elected, those geese aren't going to have too many places left to live anyway!
I am a member of ducks unlimited, and before you go spouting off at the mouth get your facts straight, DU has saved over 110 million acres of wetlands, and has done great work with conservation. Not to mention what they for for the youth. You are just another idiot that knows just enough to sound stupid.
Before you make yourself sound even more like a dickhead... I didn't say anything bad about DU. I never have. I myself have been hunting, I go with my father. I have no problem with it. I was just informing the person who started the thread that both men are hunters, since she is against it. Are you just looking for someone to insult here? I dont think I have ever read a post from you that didn't make you sound like an asshole.
Read much? What did Sera say that was so offensive?? I think that youa re just looking for someone to pick a fight with. Sera, look at his sig. Isnt that sad.
lol, someone has some anger control issues he needs to get worked out. but this is just another example that people should maybe check into things before they make a decison. they're both hunters. just a thought.
you are such a loser. HOW can someone suck as bad as this guy? I've never seen posts from a more arrogant piece of crap in my LIFE.
