Bush Wins

JDM · 11-03-2004

Kerry expected to give his concession speech anytime now.

I'm pleased.

Any thoughts.

AND LETS KEEP THESE COMMENTS ABOVE THE BELT.

Thoughts? I think this country will head downhill for another 4 years. I'm feeling so many emotions it's even hard to explain. For all you Bush supporters, put yourself in a democrat's shoes and think how they are feeling right now.

**Kracka** · 11-03-2004

I expect the economy to contine growing stronger as it is right now. I bet you liberals are feeling pretty shitty right now...but to be honest, me and the other 51% of this country really don't care. The majority has spoken, lets move on with life.

LOL, nice reply Chris!

I'm happy, it's who I wanted to win.

I'm looking foward to the next four years as much as the terrorists are fearing the next four years.
I couldn't be happier with the results. 4 more years of take no boo-shit from the US. People all over the world were glued to there TVs waiting to see if America was going to be run by pussy left-wingers or by hardcore right-wingers in the next 4 years. Looks like the lesser of the two evils IMO won.

But John Kerry did gain alot of respect in my book by conceding, it takes a big man to admit defeat. The last thing I wanted to see no matter who won was a big drama filled court battle to further rip this country apart.

I completely agree.

The economy was in a down-turn when Bush entered the office and he worked to revive it. People do need to remember what happens when the economy grows too quickly and for too long...eventually it will come down; I am sure your grandparents can elaborate on that for you if you don't know what I am referring to.

who are you trying to kid Clinton built and ran the strongest economy since the Regan and it was handed to bush to fuck up. Other countries laugh at us because of your republican hero.

By cuting our military by more than 1/2. Pretty easy to make a surplus when you cut our military budget.
Now Bush is spending major $$$ to rebuild our defences,
Not to mention multi million dollar cleanup costs from 9/11, or the worst stock market crash in history, or bailing out the airline industry, or beefing up homeland security, or fighting a major war on terrorism on multiple fronts.

**Kracka** · 11-03-2004

I am not a huge fan on losing jobs to overseas, but when you look at the big picture it is actually a necessity to keep this economy strong. Lets think plastic spoons for a moment here....we buy a box of 100 for just a few dollars right now (maybe less), but if they were to be union-made in America, that same box would probably cost us around $20. Now imagine everything imported to us from 3rd world countries was like that, inflation would be absolutely assinign! As for the tax breaks for the rich, they deserve them. They are already paying unporportionally high taxes. About 45% of a "rich" person's salary goes to taxes while the average middle class person pays about 30-35% of their salary. I really don't see the problem there, the rich are covering more than their fair share; they have worked hard for what they have, I say let them keep it.

Think about this.

It has been proven that a flat income tax of 10-20% across the board for everybody in the USA would do away with the deficit, put more money in your pocket, and make the economy take off like wild fire. Just because they say the rich pay 45% doesn't mean they really do. Can you say "tax shelters?". They have more loop-holes and ways to get out of paying than you could ever imagin.

I don't expect the rich to pay more than me, just their fare share. And that should be even across the board based on percentages. Trust me, 20% of someone who makes 10 million a year can go alot further than 20% of someone who make 15 thousand a year. And who would be hurt worse finacially and make it hard to survive on a day to day basis?

There are loop-holes available to everyone no matter what your yearly earnings are, it is just a matter if you are either 1) smart enough to find them/figure them out, or 2) rich enough to pay someone to do #1 for you. A flat 10-20% income tax across the board would work out quite well, unfortunately for all of us there are millions of people who make no income other than the checks that arrive on the 1st and/or 3rd of each month basically throwing that idea out the window. Like CVD always say, it is not the governments responsibility to get you a job...i know the democrats won't like hearing this, but take responsibility for yourself!

A lot of the really rich people don't pay crap for taxes because of all the write off's they have. Their income they claim ends up being lower then most peoples, which is why when people say to tax the rich, it ends up being those of us in the more middle class who end up pickin up the bill. But I am happy Bush won!!!

Just wondering (not accusing or anything), but how many people here on DSMstyle are actually pro-Kerry/Democrat? I've noticed that almost all my car forums are heavily slanted towards Bush.

It's an ego thing. Some people on here need a fast car to make something up, and some don't. Generally people with big egos go republican because they don't like giving more of thier money to other people.

CVD · 11-03-2004

Lets just say I'm a happy gun owner for the next four years. Kerry was a hugely anti gun candidate and I'm sure his ultimate goal would be complete disarmament of the populace - UN style.

I agree that Kerry would do more to repair our status with other nations, but at what cost?

And as for jobs, as always I state that it is not the presidents job to keep you employed.

I'm also a huge fan of tax breaks going to the people who actually pay them. Theres a surplus? Send it to whoever paid the most, not who YOU think deserves it for whatever rediculous reason or another.

Raptor · 11-03-2004

I am definately happy with the results as well, I agree with Chris and Brian. Honestly I think Kerry was just a puppet to be manipulated by whoever influenced him the most at the time. A follower is not a good choice for a leader. Perfect results IMO.

HEHE Kerry was my puppet, I just kept forgetting to pull the strings. Damnit Now I cant turn all the police stations into donut shops, and make the military serve as my kitchen staff. Well I guess I will just have to settle with watching terrorists piss their pants.
