I'm saddened no one cares I've switched from Bush to Kerry. Or perhaps no one's surprised?
I'm happy to see it, though since you aren't going to vote, and I assume you haven't or aren't going to contribute any money to the campaigns, it doesn't actually make a difference.
I have to admit I'm a bit surprised though, I would have assumed you would have cared more about economic issues than social issues.
Then again, perhaps you are now wealthy enough that protecting social freedoms is more important. That does make sense.
Actually the main reason I would feel comfortable with a Kerry presidency is the Republican congress. Kerry wouldn't be able to implement many left wing economic policies, whereas Bush might be in a position to push the stultifying christian social agenda.
[indignant] Please.... [/indignant]
You disagree? With my analysis of the balance of power or of Bush's intentions?
In fairness I'm almost as afraid of leftist social moralizers as I am of the christian type.
I believe that, like many, you make the logical falacy that, because there are people who are concerned with morality in public society, those people, nessesarily seek to impose thier moral standards on others. This is not the case. We simply seek to assure that our moral standards do not fall under attack.
P.S. Granted, a
small minority do wish to transform this country into a Christianstan, but they don't come close to repressenting the majority.
