Count Down

So I missed my chance to comment on the third Presidential debate.
The results of that debate were no surprise.
Kerry was headed for a clean sweep.

Now we are counting down to November 2, 2004. The country will decide does Bush get another term to complete/continue his current "projects," or do we give him "tha boot" and come in with a new quaterback or pitcher to bring home the win?

As for me, Bush has had enough time to prove that he doesn't have any idea of how to accomplish his goal(defeating terrorism). I agree with the rhetoric on the left that says Bush continues to be in denial about the mistakes made under his administration when it comes to the war in Iraq. And even more so the relationship of the Saddam regime to terrorism. The connection, as heart felt as the right is to wish it into being is not there. The insistence that the relationship exists makes them come off as a bunch of loony war mungers!

One thing we can say for sure that Bush has accomplished during his presidency, is that he (while I admit his "followers" extreme right wingers like Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Mike Reagan, and so on hype up daily doses of hate talk) has divided America. He has pit us against ourselves.

If re-elected I do not see this changing. I predict the divisiveness will become worse. If we experience another domestic terrorist attack we will unite when it comes to striking out against the terrorist. However, we will continue to be at odds with each other over conservative vs. liberal approach to terrorism. America has a big decision to make. Are we going to continue on the path of pre-emption? Or do we work harder towards compromise and form strong world wide allegiances?

The only solution to unite us will be if John Kerry wins.

What do you think?
Will we unite under a new President?
Will Bush finally find language and policy to demonstrate that he is a uniter?
