After looking at the election map of the United States it be came evident that over 2/3 of the States that voted for Kerry were composed of voters who are tied to entitlement programs. There interests did not relate to the best interests of all US citizens, but for themselves.
I reside in California, home of the illegals and one big welfare state. This is the only reason Bush lost in our state. Even the news media agrees that those states with large numbers of minorities never vote Republican.

I'm sorry but the majority has spoken.

I am pretty sure those who are elected try to do their best. With Bush winning the majority vote no one can deny him as a great politician.

The corporations backing Bush & Co are the ones on the entitlement programs. It's called corporate welfare. Ever watch a Wal-Mart move into a small town? First they tell people how many jobs it will generate, then they hire people as temps at minimum wage, part-time, no bennies. Then they undercut local businesses, who then have to lay off people who were making living wages. Then those small businesses close, leaving a monoculture in a town that most likely needs all the diversity it can get.

This is old news! The rich get richer, and do everything they can to keep the green rolling in. War, job outsourcing, union busting...What's next? Rigged elections? Terrorist atacks? Flu vaccine shortages? If you look at who benefits from all the turmoil in this country, I doubt it's the poor, immigrants, single mothers, or unemployed people. Bush & Co got the very victims of his policies convinced to vote for him. I lived in a town of 5000, Bu#es, 99% of them. Not a job in sight, unemployment virtually non-existant, and for some inexplicable reason, they thought the people who let WalMArt in & sent the real jobs overseas are going to help them! HA!
Blue state entitlement - puhleeze! Corporate welfare - duh!
