PUBLIC FORUM BUSH WINS.


I'm sure that the loony far-left wing of the Democratic party is now familiar with the term ``unintended consequences For the "Law of unintended consequences", see Unintended consequence

A mandate

It looks like the American voters have given George Bush and the GOP a mandate to lead this country. I hope this puts to rest all those references to ``Dubya'' and all of the other demeaning de·mean 1

Kerry loses

The windsurfer who would be king underestimated President Bush. The assertion by John Kerry that he is a leader and uniter falls on deaf ears, as the voters in greater proportion respond to the president's strategy. This is bad news for appeasers, and for terrorists and those who harbor and support them.

Ask yourself

I'm truly hopeful that the (liberal) Democrats might finally cut their fellow countrymen the same sort of slack they afford anti-American foreigners or terrorists and ask themselves, ``What might we have done to deserve this defeat?''

Renewed faith

George Bush's win sends the message to our Islamist-fascist enemy that America stands strong. They cannot divide us to conquer. I hope this message gets to our enemy from within the left. They failed at divide-and- conquer also. I have renewed faith in the intelligence of the American people An American people may be:

Where is justice?

As a lifelong Republican, I am totally shocked and disgusted at the process where my vote and those of my fellow California Republicans were totally rejected and all 55 of the electoral votes for California were awarded to John Kerry. Where is the justice in that? The process must change to reflect the vote of the people.

No wonder

I assume that most people know that you cannot campaign for a political candidate or cause within a polling place. As an inspector of a precinct on Nov. 2 that processed 590 voters, four voters attempted to wear anti-Bush or pro-Kerry apparel or buttons into the voting booth and had to be requested to cover or remove those items.

A registered Democrat for nearly 40 years, I re-registered as a Republican after the antics displayed by the Democrats following the 2000 elections. I feel that continuing with their petty actions and vicious attacks does not improve their image with the majority of the voting public, hence President Bush has been re-elected.

Personal bias

I come away from this election with great misgivings, not for the way it turned out, but for the realization that a monster is loose in America. I am talking about the liberal press and media, without whose help Kerry would have been crushed. These people are so expert in the use of propaganda that they almost captured the election for Kerry.

The problem is that the press and media cannot be controlled. While they must be free to address the news, they have a responsibility to police themselves and stop inserting their personal bias when reporting. The root of the problem is in the colleges, where most of the professors are overwhelmingly liberal. Young minds get twisted after exposure to these elements. Certainly legislation to control the situation is wrong. A clear answer is elusive.

Police first

Re ``Tax for more police failing'' (Nov. 3):

Sheriff Lee Baca hit the nail on the head when in his concession of Measure A he recognized that not only do the people believe in the cause of more police protection, but also the call for the tax revenues to be allocated in favor of police first and entitlements last. I hope he can direct his political energies as fervently for this cause as he did for raising our taxes.

Paying for police

After the failure of L.A. County Measure A (thank the Lord), I have a suggestion. How about analyzing the funding requirements for fire and police protection, and then put a proposition on the ballot to fence off that amount from existing sales and property taxes?

That would take those funds away from the politicians and their favorite projects and put them where they belong. That is a proposition that I and many others could support, and it would give the police and fire departments what they need.

A better way

Re ``Council tries to halt closure of Van Nuys medical center'' (Nov. 3):

So brain trust Tony Cardenas wants to find a loophole in the law to force Northridge Hospital's Van Nuys campus to stay open. Instead of high-priced lawyers, here's a simple solution: Rescind Special Order 40 and start rounding up illegal immigrants who fill up our jails, and run businesses into the ground, like hospitals, trauma centers, etc., forcing their closure.

Instead, these stupid socialist liberals open the Office of Immigrant Affairs, which we all know will be used by illegals looking for Looking for

 people have been bullied and badgered long enough to go vote. Many citizens just want to be left alone. Their voices need to be heard, and I have taken up their cause.

By the mere fact that they are apathetic, the odds are they're not inclined to stand up for themselves. Someone has to do it for them, and I accept the challenge. Thank you and please leave us alone during the next city election in 2005.
