Indulge me.

For those of you who are planning to vote for Bush in November, would you please tell me why? Preferably a reason a little more nuanced than "Kerry's an asshole"?

Note: You're not going to change my mind on this. If the past four years haven't changed my mind, a fifty-word comment sure as hell isn't going to do it.

I'm just trying to understand. Right now nothing scares me more than the thought of four more years of Bush, but I know there are people I like and respect who disagree for whatever reason, and I want to know why, so I can at least try to understand.

No flaming. If I'm too slammed to post my DragonCon pictures (coming soon!), I'm sure as hell too busy to play referee. Play nice, folks.

One thing that I have noticed is that those few people that I know that are voting for Bush are single issue voters. Be it the abortion issue or the Cuba issue (older Cubans still hold a grudge since the Bay of Pigs) or they envision the US turning into a Theocratic state which of course scares the crap out of me.

I tend to look at the big picture and try to see how things are going to develop down the road. The fact that the current administration is not curious in the field of science and technology, not accepting and inclusive of all people regardless of race, religion or lifestyle that they are destroying the environment and that we are no safer today than we were on September 11, not to mention that I am not considered patriotic if I don't support the current administration, that is why I am going to vote for Kerry.
