Perhaps you could be a bit more specific? Now, if you were to say exactly what it is he's done to the Clean Air Act that you don't like, perhaps I might agree with you... But as it stands, I'm not sure just what you're talking about. Just saying that he's made weakened it doesn't give enough information to rally support.

Also...

So... You're saying that it's better to vote for someone who you know absolutely nothing about than for Bush? Sorry, but I don't see the country in ruins at the moment. I also don't see indication that it's about to do so. Now, of course, I might be wrong... However, even if you don't approve of a number of Bush's policies, voting for a random candidate doesn't mean they'll be better. There's at least as great a chance they'll be worse than better, I would hazard.

On a final note for the moment, I must say that I largely agree with what Hierophant said. Whether or not you approve of Bush, it seems like a distinctly poor choice to base an entire political philosophy on that. Do those of you who've already posted about your hatred of Bush have an actual, specific plan on what would be a better course of action than what Bush is doing? I don't mean something like, "We shouldn't have gone into Iraq," or "Help the environment," or whatnot. I mean something that concrete that could, with perhaps a little bit of tweaking, be turned into a legitimate law. Altrhough I've seen a lot of people criticize Bush (here and in other places), very few I've spoken to seem to have any real idea about what would be a better way of going about the business of government.


Editting this in now that I've seen the latest post.

And why, exactly, do you say that? Some evidence would be greatly appreciated, since I'm having a hard time remembering the last time I heard of a book (or most anything, for that matter) being censored.
