    I try to stay away from them...but, the thread about people owning boats and being here from gnarley struck a chord with me...
    some friends of mine are demo' they vote demo' and love to bash the current admin'. other than that you would never know it...nice cars, good money and they don't like to pay taxes..(what supports all the "liberal"programs$$$$$????)
    it's getting trendy to hammer the current admin'...that getting easy, what's the alternative???
    kerry???
    how much did his wife pay in taxes??? (again, what funds federal programs?)
    the Demo's I know, are really conservatives and don't know it...

    I agree, if you get into a discussion with most dems they really don't support the positions of their leaders.
    If dems like Kerry/edwards/hollywood want to support programs they think will work why don't they set up a foundation to do it. Take Soros and all his friends (socialists) and they could fund any program they want.
    When you look at all of the programs the government runs now from schools to VA hospitals I don't see how anyone would want them in charge of anything else.

    reminds me of my kid's kindergarten class ...
    asks if I want her in bi-lingual class...says she'll learn spanish...cool, sounds good ,yeah
    find out she get's stuck in a corner for the year ...learning few words in es spanol....
    her and her friends were at a table that didn't need help...
    Now, with the testing, they have accountability......
    i'm probably more liberal than my demo' friends... :rollside:

    I hate be or sound Racist, but please explain to me why my kid HAS to learn Spanish, yes i know why, but why are we wasting money and time bowing down as i feel we are and offering bi-lingual classes.
    Are Bi-lingual classes offered anywhere else , any other country, most schools teach the basics, and you are required to take the language of your choice, french is a more universal language than spanish, yet because of the changing nature of Calif. Ariz. and Texas we force our kids and ourselves to learn another language, whereas the opposite is not true, spanish speakers are not required to learn English, it is "offered" as a class in most Jr. and Sr. High's .
    And look at the DMV every pamphlet , book, test, rule is in 50 different languages, i exaggerated yes but c'mon!
    Ok i can take a breath and relax, this little rant/vent group thing is fun :rollside: Mike VG

    I feel fortunate. I know maybe 2 couples that are dems and they don't like Kerry or his wife. They also don't like Jr. but they think that Laura Bush is solid gold. Not one person in our company is democratic so I have a hard time believing that California will vote Bush out. v-drive

    Isn't it always like that with politics, each side agrees about what needs to be done but has radically opposing views on how to do it or make it happen, some of the dems i know i would have sworn were Reps, my wife is a dem but not into politics, therefore i call her a sheep she's told by her friends at work all union members who what and how to vote , because thats the union way, by the way just to let it be known , i was a union member and in no way am against them, they have their place in the economy and thats fine by me, but when i ask/confront her on the issues she has no clue what i am saying, and i have seen too much of that in the past.
    When you look at the media, and lets take MTV for example the Get The Vote Out is a great idea, but they tend to swing to the left, not fairly portaying an issue evenly from both sides, so the youngins say yeah thats bad vote Dem, and if a kid from a Rep side tries to give them facts contrary to what they have been told to believe then that kid is a rich snob and on and on. I just wish that more of the registered voters got out there and VOTED, my god single and sometimes double digits low double digit turnouts, like i was told by my father, if you didn't vote don't bitch!!!
