    I'm interested to know the Bush supporters views on this. Especially the ones that say Bush dosnt harm the environment. It's amazing how a little bit of knowledge can change a life.

    I urge everyone to actually do a little research on both candidates, and not just go by what everyone else and their mom is saying. Choose for yourself. You have your own life and your own mind, so how about using it instead of letting others decide for you.

    I started a thread about this a couple months ago.

    They'll never respond, because there is no defense to these charges.

    Bush should ask his Evangical Gurus what the term "stewardship" means...

    Simple, Bush won't do anything that may harm industry or jobs, and bringing into law tougher envirormental laws or greater enforcing the ones we have might harm business.

    You know the economy thing is an old issue now, we've added almost 2 million jobs in the past 14 months.

    Most of them are government jobs. The private sector is still down by a bunch.

    How about his policy (the one that overturned Clinton's policy) to allow so many snowmobiles in national parks that rangers sometimes have to where masks to be able to breathe? I should feel sorry for people who make snowmobiles instead of protecting the air we breathe?

    There are obviously some people that are so right in their own mind that they tune out any facts. Let him be, he'll figure it out one day...
