Guns, God, Gays and Abortions

Recommended Posts

I just watched a Howard Dean interview on Fox News.
I think the guy has a good point, why make guns ,god ,gays and abortions a focus of your campain because people will always be divided on these topics.
Instead focus on health care, education and economics some areas that this country desperately needs some leadership.
I like this guy I just might vote for him.

Read his platform a bit in-depth. This guy will tax you @ss 'till the cows come home.

Also there's plenty of divisions on healh care, education, and the economy too.

Delegates of the dem party, please nominate this guy. It'll only make the defeat "sting" more when he loses.
So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

He seems like too much of a polititian to me. I'd rather see Wesley Clark win the Demo nomination...regardless, I want the Demo guy to lose...so in theory, I guess I should want Dean to win. I think Clark has a better chance of beating Bush than does Dean.

I agree, but unfortunately there are still partisan splits on how to manage those important issues.

He can do that, but he still needs to make his positions clear on those issues, because they are important to many voters, who select candidates based upon those hot issues.

Guns:
"I believe the federal gun laws we have -- like the Brady Bill -- are important, and I would veto any attempt to repeal or gut them. The Assault Weapons Ban expires next year, and it should be renewed.
I don’t think we need a lot of new federal laws. But we do need to do a few things at the federal level, like requiring Insta-Check on all retail and gun show sales. We also must do a better job of enforcing the laws on the books. After that, I would let the states decide for themselves what, if any, additional gun safety laws they want."


God:
I can't find a clear statement on where he stands on controversial religious issues, like school prayer and mixing religion with government...

Gays:
Governor Dean signed Vermont’s civil unions legislation into law... Vermont is the first state to enact legislation recognizing same-sex unions, and granting gay and lesbian couples the same legal rights as heterosexual couples... gives gay and lesbian couples the same right to inherit property that married couples enjoy... provides child custody rights for gay and lesbian couples... gives gay and lesbian couples the right to hospital visitation, health insurance, and control of a partner’s affairs upon death... strengthened protections against anti-gay violence...

Abortion:
"As a physician, I do not believe Congress or the President should practice medicine. Abortion is a deeply personal decision, which ought to be made between a woman and her physician. It's none of the government's business... I am opposed to politicians practicing medicine as they have done in passing the late term abortion bill." (i.e., he is in favor of allowing all abortions, even partial birth abortions.)

Before you vote for him in the primaries, do some research on Act 60 that he signed into law as Governor of Vermont. You may be for it or you may be against. But you will be informed on his tax policies. He basically taxed many residents into the poor house because they happened to live in towns that had multi-million dollar vacation homes owned by out of staters.

Chris

But to tell you the truth, I'd prefer you to vote for him in the primaries, because he doesn't have a chance of beating GWB. He has quite a record of not listening to the majority of his constituents in the State of Vermont.

Why make them issues? They are issues. Constantly. People want representatives who believe the way they do.

And like someone said, people are just as divided with health care, education, and economics as the above. The only difference I see is that he was on a conservative leaning channel, so he didn't want to show his position on them. If he's paid attention, he also noticed that gun control is a big loser at the ballot box.

Whoever replaces Bush will have to raise taxes. Bush doesn't know how to stop spending.

Bush doesn't know how...yeah, I'll go with that. So who does? Sure not them dems. The Republicans won't have anyone put above W, and the Dems will spend more AND have to cover W's spending, so either "real" party will do you that way.

After posting to it, I then noticed it was in bonfire. I deleted it and reposted to SC. Some one had already replied so I postedMoved post to speakers corner, more appropriate.
