PhisFreak,

I am supporting Kerry and it's mostly because I care so much about our environment and fishing. This is what a NASA scientist wrote about GW and his administration as it pertains to the environment:

“In my more than three decades in government, I have never seen anything approaching the degree to which information flow from scientists to the public has been screened and controlled as it is now,” James Hansen told a University of Iowa audience. Here is the link if you are interested in reading the entire article. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6341451/

That all aside, I often hear what you just mentioned about Democrats going to "take away our guns". Noone is going to take away your guns, repub or dem, guns are part of our constitution and are as old as the country itself. The democrats are, however, for controlling certain weapons such as "fully automatic machine guns" used for nothing but killing people. I personally don't see the need for a person to buy a fully automatic weapon at Wal-Mart but am a strong believer in our right to bear arms.

I don't expect to change your mind about who you vote for as everyone seems to be quite polarized in this regard. It seems that people either "really like" or "really dislike" GW. Right now the election looks to be "neck and neck" but if GW had done even a "satisfactory job" he would be winning bya landslide.

Best regards,
