So how many of you are pro Bush and do not consider yourself Christians?

Now that is funny.
As for the comments about Kerry not taking ground as Bush's approval rating slips, lets not forget that there is a strategy being employed. Bush is spending millions on attack ads that are getting him absolutely nowhere in the polls. If you are a challenger and the incumbent is slipping as this one is (both abroad and domestically) you keep your mouth shut this far from the election. Let's take a look back at the Democratic primaries. Kerry was trailing in the polls badly and was completely written off. He fired his campaign manager and still there was no perceptible bump in the polls. Then suddenly he roared out of Iowa and never looked back. The voters in Iowa were tired of the attack ads being aired by Dean and Gephardt and rejected them both.
Kerry's campaign is being run very competently right now. Keep mum, let Bush get bogged down in Iraq, Medicare backlash, the deficit, and the environment. Just today the Energy Secretary said we need to loosen the pollution controls on gasoline. Meanwhile the taxpayers continue to buy oil at the highest recorded price in history and pump it into the ground in Louisianna. Nobody is calling for "emptying the strategic petroleum reserve" as Bush recently stated. How about we just stop filling the thing until prices stabilize?
Anyway, later this summer the 9/11 commission will come out with their report which will again putting Bush on the defensive, the White House treason of betraying a CIA agent will lead to indictments or CIA agents will engage in strategic leaking of information in revenge, the Republican Convention will be near Ground Zero in September resulting in massive protests in the always Democratic city of New York, and Kerry will cream Bush in the one debate that Bush will agree to.
Actually what I meant to say here was that BBQ brisket is much better than ribs and Kerry's Air Force One will spew significantly fewer chemtrails than Bush's, which spewed much fewer than Clinton's.
