No rizla it is you who sees the need to attack others for merely having differing points of view. You claim to be seeking understanding but that is totally untrue. If you wish to understand reread the posts with an open mind not a mind that is looking for a reason to attack. You might even suceed in changing people's minds if you state your arguements with clarity and logic instead of name calling and insults. Once again scamper have a nice day.

Wrong on both counts. The first I've dealt with (repeatedly...). As for the second, where did I call anybody names?
Interesting. Again we see evidence of Bush supporters seeing attacks where there are none. More evidence of seige mentality/paranoa? Is this how their minds work? It appears they perceive/create attacks on themselves to give themselves something to fight against.

Again, I've dealt with this one too. Please see the first page. The purpose of this thread is to investigate the mental processes of those who continue to support an obviously disasterous president. I'm not asking why they think they support Bush. I'm asking what are the causes of their extreme disconnect from reality.

Okay scamper which question are you referring to? I'll try one more time to answer in a manner that you may actually understand tho I'm not sure how much clearer you need your answer to be.
Originally posted by gallopinghordesRizla at the riskof being rude I really feel you yourself need to calm down. I didn't notice anyone attacking the Dems for your information I don't believe we Americans are idealistic about our presidents most of us know them to be people who are trying to do a tough job the best way they can and I can respect that whether you can or not. You constant challenge to me as to whether I would support Hitler is absolutley stupid which is quite surprising since you don't appear to be stupid. You are comparing two completly different people so here and now please be statisfied no I think Hitler is most likly roasting in a very special part of hell for his actions. I do not compare Bush to Hitler but you scamper off and have a great time doing so.

No I'm not contradicting myself because there is no logical comparison between Hitler and Bush

My primary reason for supporting Bush, I trust him. When I see him speak on television, I know that he is a down to earth human being, just like me.
I completely support the war on terror . . . In short, the Iraq war is a necessary sacrifice to secure our future wellbeing, as well as that of the rest of the world.
As another poster mentioned, unemployment is extremely low and I don't buy the theory that these are all bad jobs. Without going into details, I will say that my job situation has improved dramatically in the past 5 years and I certainly don't work at McDonalds.
With that being said, I think you folks are in for a huge surprise come November. What you don't see in the Presidential approval polls is that if those polled that voted for Bush in 2004 were asked if they would rather have Kerry in there, the numbers would climb right back up.
Have fun tearing me up folks. Good day.
But, on the other hand if all you are willing to do is rant and call names then you are right you won't be able to influence any one.
Do I agree with how Hitler acted good grief of course not. He was wrong in oh so many ways.
As a matter of fact I didn't vote for Clinton either time he ran but once he won the election I supported him as my President as is right and proper.
