Political

Up to three articles now, one a draft. Below the articles you will find links to websites. Feel free to comment about an article or let me know of any mistakes or ways I could improve one.

Articles

The Arguments Against Same-Sex Marriages - Unconvincing. - Article, going through the arguments I've heard about why same-sex marriages shouldn't be allowed, and why they aren't convincing.

Always a Man and Woman? Not True. - Did a little research into the claim that marriage has always been between a man and a woman, and have found that not to be true.

Bush the Great Misleader? - An article taking a look at how President Bush is misleading the American people about Senator Kerry on gas taxes the same way his critics said he mislead the American people in going to war with Iraq. I thought it was a novel idea, though this is a draft.

Websites

The following websites have been used as sources for some of the above articles, or are just websites I found to be fairly informative. So I'm sharing them here (let me know if a link breaks). Placed in random order, more or less.

1) FactCheck.org - Great website in my opinion. Takes the claims of both parties and shows what the actual facts are. Good at shedding light on those horribly misleading political ads.

2) Conservatives for Kerry - Good website, and the people who post on it seem to be quite intelligent. It's also nice to see that some people who are "supposed" to follow the President, can think for themselves instead.

3) John Kerry for President Blog - Senator Kerry's website, obviously. Posting it because there are some interesting things there, though politically I am independent. So don't give me any of that, "You're a crazy left-wing" crap. Attack my ideas, not me. =)

4) Who should I vote for? - A website that seems dedicated to showing all of Bush's mistakes, lies, and misleadings. While it does seem to be slanted against him, there is a lot of research done that backs up what's said. Great site, you just need to ignore the bias tone it has at times.

5) Bush Admin's Claims vs Facts - This takes the Admin's claims against Richard Clarke's interview and dispelling them with facts. Interesting read.

6) Bush Meets the Press: Claims vs Facts - Believe this is disputing claims Bush made on his Meet the Press interview. Not trying to bash Bush here, but eh, I like a President who speaks the truth. ;)

7) Republicans for John Kerry - Another website for those who can think for themselves and not blindly follow the man in charge. Also has a message board for discussions.
