If you would like to vote and not post your reasons, that's ok. That's what voting is all about. But at least vote. You guys know me and know I'm a Bush man. With Super Tuesday moving closer, I'd like to know what the general concensus of the board is.

He's taking away my overtime, he's spending money like a drunk sailor, he added the biggest entitlement ever to the be paid by the federal tax payors, his tax cuts helped the economy but they dropped more people of the bottom end henceforth creating more people who do not financially support America but yet they can still vote in elections that would elect people that will take money from me by force and give it to them that will not work, he furhter got the federal gov't hands into my and your local school districts, he has the guts to attack those that would hurt us(I'm very proud of him for this!) but he doesn't have the guts to smack around (polictically) his opponents here in the US and shut them up....so I will not be voting for Bush.
Everyone of those Democrat yahoo are way more worse than Bush so they won't get my vote either.
I will be support a true constitutional candidate by voting for the Libertarian candidte, probably Harry Brown.

OH, that's great... waste your vote all together. This garbage of Bush taking everyones overtime away is rediculous. He has and has had nothing to do with the way your company operates, pays or runs it's business. Companies have been streaming out of this country to have their work done LONG before either Bush came to office. The claim of Bush taking away "OVERTIME" is just politics. MAny companies have avoided "OVERTIME" for decades simply by having shifts around the clock. Many companies flat tell you... "There will be no overtime so don't hang around. Clock out and be gone." Many companies avoid it with part time workers. Companies are leaving the country because of cheaper wages and no overtime and no unions. IT isn't George Bush. The Democrats over the past 50 years have had more to do with it than the Republicans ever did. The give give give spending mentality has lead to the raping of business which has led to tightening the belt and becoming more streamlined to be profitable. If a company can't make a profit they close. How many jobs does that send overseas. I think they're saying you can work the 40 hours and go home. If you want a few more dollars you can work some more. If you don't want to... that's fine, I'll hire some part time people or a second shift and give MORE people a job. If you insist on charging me double time to make a product I can only sell for time and a half wages.... well I don't need to make it... at least not here.

I will be voting for the Libertarian Canidate and this year it isn't Brown. The Libertarian convention is Memorial Day weekend in Atlanta so for those of us interested that is when we will know who the canidate is. I don't consider it wasting my vote. I consider it voting my concious. I really do not want to see Bush in for a second term where he dosen't have to give a flip obout public opinion. The "overtime bill", CAFTA, FTAA, and the legalizing illegal aliens are definitly enough for me. Funny if a Democrat had proposed any of these you guys would be raising cain. Kerry will probably get the Democratic ticket and he has taken more specially interest money than anybody else. He also is married into the Heinze fortune so I think we know where his interst will lie. Oh by the way Shorthair did ya know he was a 'Nam Vet. ;D

Well Davidmil what about this foolish federal takeover off my local school district called No Child Left Behind? And what about Medicare Reform....perscription drug coverage for seniors? If that won't be the biggest burden ever laid on the tax payers I don't know what will.
Let us not forget his intention on signing the Clinton Gun Ban if the congress reauthorizes before it sunsets and sends it to him.
He's ballsy guy and a man of his word and I really welcome that in the White House. But he hasn't elimnated any fedral programs yet. Conservative, I think not!
Do we even need to visit the cockamamey Alien Amnesty Program. Tell me how that's good for America?

Right now I say Bush but he is slipping . I wish he would quite trying to fight a political war in Iraq and either go ahead and pull out or turn the boys over there loose and let them take care of these idiotic suiside bombers, snipers and low life terrorist. I don't agree with all his domestic polocies but I don't think any of the others are gonna do any better .

LOL...dude..I wouldn't vote for none of these dems..just trying to stir the pot...I went tues. to vote in the primary only because we had a vacancy for senator, but in order to vote for the Democrats candidate you had to take an oath saying you were a Democrat...(a new law here in SC)..I wouldn't say the oath so they wouldn't let me vote for the pres part....so I voted for the republican candidate for senate and left
