Speak Up

Now I am a Kerry fan, and I find the T-shirts funny, but I don't think if someone is conducting a real non-biest survey they shouldn't even give their opion to you. Just ask you questions and then say thank you for your time.

I know what you mean I went to get a voter registration form at Coffman Union. When I found the lady she asked me if I was voting for Bush I said yes because I didn't know what she would have done to me if I said no. Now is that peer presure or what?

Yea i agree with you Jeff. Why doesnt the university ban such rude outbursts. I like Bush I am going to vote for with, but I thought that what they were doing was a little border line. Does she really think that T-Shirst that say "Fu@! Bush is going to influnce people to vote for Kerry.

If a person is conducting a surbey, they shouldn't wear anything that gives away their bias, otherwise it could potentially scare off people who are of a different view point,which would skew their data, most likely in their favor. All this bashing is just going to turn people off from voting.

It's weird that they would do that because if you look at it from their point of view, they aren't going to like it if somebody went up to them and wore a shirt that said "____ Kerry." They should respect everyones opinions and try not to do things to others and offend others if they don't like it being done to them.

Why does it matter whether or not they wear a Fuck Bush shirt or not? If you are going to vote, you should feel strongly enough that you aren't going to change your opinions for other people. Besides, a fuck bush shirt is meant to be funny. I support Kerry and if someone is wearing a fuck kerry shirt, more power to them.as long as they can back up what they think, it's cool.

Well, I have sold about 1600 Fuck Bush shirts since February. It is funny that people get offended and people think that I would get mad if they said Fuck Kerry. Honestly I should have sold Fuck Kerry shirts as well. I would of been able to hit both parties this way and sell more shirts. But I felt Bush was the worst of the two evils and stuck it to him. I don't know why someone would take it personal with an attack on the president. Does anyone think the president would care if someone said something about you? I don't know sorry if the shirts have offended anyone. I was just getting out the Pro Hetro message. And I am gone...

Alright, this pissed me off when I saw that shirt outside St. Paul Student Center after our Rhetoric class. That was completely unnecessary! The problem was that even before I could even say a single word to the girl that was wearing it, or even hear something she had to say I had already made a bad judgement of her for even wearing such a bold shirt. Granted there are people who were passionate for their Presidential Candidate but to take it that far and use profane language in a matter to insult a human. I understand that there are people who do not like Bush simply because it is George Bush, but is it really necessary to take it as far as to subject voting citizens, whether for or against Bush, to a shirt that insults a person with such harshness. Well I guess all I really have to say is that the shirt was complete bullshit. And I say bullshit because if they can say "Fuck Bush" then I should be able to call it bullshit because turns out George won. Sorry but the votes have been counted and there's goin to be 4 more years of the W' around.

Three phrases should be among the most common in our daily usage. They are: Thank you, I am grateful and I appreciate.

Don't Vote, it only encourages them!
