[quote name='helava'][quote name='Cracka']there was a link yesterday in some thread that showed that the majority of Kerry's supporters were voting for him because they just wanted somebody besides Bush, but didnt really know much about Kerry's policies.
The point i was making is, if you dont like Bush, dont just vote for Kerry just because he's not Bush, atleast try to find out about his policies.
Say you dont like Bush's policies so you decide that you're voting for Kerry. Kerry gets elected and you find out his policies are just like Bush's except worse. (not saying they're policies are the same, just giving an example)[/quote]
Wow.
1.) You believe that Kerry supporters are such mindless drones, they'll vote for *anything* that's not Bush?
2.) You believe that Kerry supporters are somehow willfully ignorant about his policies?
3.) You believe that Kerry supporters are so stupid that they wouldn't know Hitleresque policies if they saw them?
Here's the deal - if you want to make a Hitler analogy, the Bush-Hitler analogy is a WHOLE LOT MORE APT. We're talking about someone who's attacked another sovereign nation, unprovoked, who uses fear of the "other" to promote his policies, he undermines the freedoms this country was built on, and is so corrupt and mired in crony politics that criminal behaviour is given a free pass, so long as it's conducted by members of his political party.
Seriously, Cracka - you're a complete, total buffoon. Grow a brain, please.

from the link that was posted yesterday (about to look for it) that showed the results of a recent poll laid out on a pie graph, the majority of Kerry supporters said that they were voting for Kerry because he was not Bush. The minority of the poll said that they actually knew/supported Kerry's policies.
i know that using results of polls as evidence makes me a "total buffoon", and it is obvious that you missed the whole point that i was making (i'm guessing it was because you were too busy trying to think up clever phrases like "grow a brain,please."), but the point i was making is Dont Vote For Somebody Just Because He Is Not Somebody Else.
whether it is Kerry or Bush. I only used Kerry in my example because i've seen countless people post that they were voting for Kerry because they wanted anybody in office instead of Bush.
To answer your questions:
1) according to the polls, yes.
2) according to the polls, yes.
3) you cannot point out hitleresque policies if you dont know his policies.
KEYNOTE:calling me names/telling me to grow a brain, doesnt strengthen your argument.
