Reply #4: My Dad Is a Dem and He's Voting For Bush

[InfoMinister]

See, it's the complete opposite in my family. My dad is voting for Bush in this election and it's specifically because of terrorism. I can't believe how he feels about all of this. When I visit he complains all day about how the press is too negative about the president and believes Bush is doing the best he can. He won't read any articles. He won't watch any documentaries. He turns off The Daily Show if it ever says anything bad about Bush(which basically means he turns it a lot. The exception to that rule is if they just make fun of how the president acts stupid during speeches. For some reason he'll laugh at that but not at any specific criticisms). Like a lot of other Americans he's fallen into the trap of believing that Bush equals America, the troops, and it is unpatriotic to question him because it's a time of war.

The good thing is that my uncle is a Kerry supporter. However, my dad just says he's blindly following his political party and any sensible person would know Bush is the better choice. Pfft.
