Republicans for Kerry

public - created 05/16/04
Admit it, you voted for Bush. You might have even voted for him twice (like me). But now, it's out of control. ?So, he's not the brightest guy ever to hold office,? we thought. But we knew he could win. He connected well with the target demographic. He could get a Republican back in the White House. And surely Colin and Condi and the other bright folks up there would keep things from getting too out of control. Well, I'll admit it. We were wrong. Turns out the President's not just a figurehead, like a lot of us assumed. At the end of the day, he makes the hard decisions. And we were wrong to think that it was a good idea to give nuclear launch authority to someone who doesn't correctly pronounce the word ?nuclear.? So it's time for us to clean up our mess. Sadly, the man isn't up to the job. It's nothing personal. He's a nice guy! Even Democrats who know him like him. (Watch ?Journeys with George?) But the events of the past three years have made it clear that he doesn't have the subtlety or the intellectual curiosity necessary to handle leadership of the last remaining superpower without crashing us into a wall. It's time to take back the reigns and the only way to do that anytime soon is to support Kerry. Sure, he's a liberal. And that's not good. But admit it, it's hard to imagine government spending or the deficit growing any faster than they have under Bush. It's hard to imagine our freedoms being encroached any more quickly than has happened with Ashcroft in charge of the Justice Department. It's hard to imagine our national security being more poorly served than it's been in Iraq, now the picture-perfect Al-Quaeda recruiting video. It's time to support Kerry. He's the lesser of two evils. And then, in '08, we can put McCain in the White House and write off this nasty little interlude as a hard-earned lesson in the Science of Picking a Leader.
