Geo Bush lied to us all, insulted this nation, abused his powers and his office and profited from it all in ways I will always feel like should be prosecuted in a court of law...
I felt compelled to vote for the option as diametrically opposed to everything his party stood for, for putting him into office in the first place...he had an agenda going in; to wage war in order to profit from it...and I heard nothing from McCain/Palin to make me think anything would change...I had had all I could stand from that camp...
And one other thing...there are a lot of God-Fearing people out there, I don't want to offend any of them as I respect those sincere in their beliefs...but people who lead in government w/their religion are as scary to me as any terrorists the middle east can produce...Palin said our troops were in Iraq "doing God's work"...that scares me...Bush nominated Harriet Meyers to a seat on the Supreme Court...she scares me for the same reason...I don't believe religion should be in government anymore than I believe government should be in religion(consider the implications of the latter)...if ya wanna put "In God We Trust" on our money and the 10 Commandments on the courthouse, that's OK w/me...but a nation who kills people and prosecutes others under the banner of "Doing God's Work" SHOULD fail...
IMO there is a chasm of difference between God and religion...and there are too many religions out there who are confused about God...
