Libertarian Party calls * a "Political Welfare Queen"
Advertisements [?]
"Shame on President Bush for forcing ordinary Americans to pay for this
weeklong infomercial masquerading as a political convention," said
Michael Dixon, national chair of the Libertarian Party. "We're
challenging the Bush-Cheney ticket to get off the welfare wagon, and
give the money back."

"Vice President Dick Cheney and dozens of Senators and Representatives
are millionaires many times over, thanks in part to their years of
government 'service,' " Dixon said. "It's both outrageous and arrogant
for these rich politicians to demand that ordinary Americans pay for a
convention whose only purpose is to get the Republican president re-
elected.

"The truth is that George Bush isn't really a compassionate
conservative; he just plays one on TV. In real life he's a political
welfare queen who's just shaken down taxpayers for $40 million.
"


Ahhhh...I love the Libertarian party sometimes...I have half of my heart with them, and half with the Dems.


I wish Kerry would come out and attack * like this. Lets hope he starts after Labor Day.
