Yes it is.
We will get attacked again by Osama bin Laden. Whatever happened to him. I wish this administration would have some accountability and not let the man responsible for the 9-11 off the hook.

As a democrat I am worried about our national security and think the administration has done the nation a disservice by abandoning the search for Osama and taking on the unilateral war in Iraq.

As much as I don't like Michael Moore, I would suggest seeing his movie just to get a little perspective on who we should be fighting. I don't like the propoganda behind his films but he does a good job a pointing out some things conservatives like to forget. Like that we let Osama escape.

I don't like the original intent of this thread. Don't try to spin some statistical property to try to show one canidate is over the other.

I can't wait until the debates start and the election might start to focus around issues that are important to everyone here. Mostly security and foreign affairs(how to resolve iraq, how to restore relations (ie getting back in security council, treating the UN with more respect among other things)), social issues ( education is important to me, so is the enviroment(part of the reason going into chemical engineering), social sercurity, healthcare, social services (Straight out I am pro choice even though I believe in the right of a unborn child. This is because I honestly believe making it illegal would have worse consequence because the procedure would occur illegally. I see social services and education as the best solution to this problem.)), and the third seems to be the budget (we can't ignore it. I want a fiscally responisble administration. I understand deficit in cases of national emergency aka war. But I don't like new talk of more tax cuts plus another trillion dollars of program funding.).

Hopefully in the next four years we will begin to find some solutions for these problems. Honestly we've all had our four years of Bush and he hasn't even really done anything to impress me in things that matter to me or my future. So unless he announces some logical plan (no Reganomics) to solve some of these issues, my vote is headed elsewhere. Because I want a change my only logical choice is Kerry. He hasn't impressed me anymore to be honest. But America needs fresh blood. And I love America so I'll vote for what America needs.
