The Face of Fear: Richard Armitage - Desperate attacks on Kerry
While I've been trying hard to take a positive pro-Kerry approach in my ads and flyers, I felt that the recent attacks by the Republicans essentially tying a Kerry victory to Al Queda attacks and the outrageous claim that Kerry's stance on Iraq "emboldens the enemy" cannot go unanswered. MSNBC and the New York Times have both highlighted these attacks in featured articles.

Here is my message (see http://bigpath.net/politics/Politics_of_Fear/PoliticsFearStart.html):

As the race for the White House and Congress tightens, the Republicans have reached a new low, subverting political debate and chipping away at every American’s right to free speech, fearful that they may indeed lose their tight grip on power.

Not only are the Republicans' statements false, they are a perversion of political discourse. Americans have fought and died defending the right of every citizen to speak freely. And that is the ultimate hypocrisy of the Republican comments concerning Iraq and the war on terror.

John Kerry and John Edwards offer courage, compassion and credibility. And they need a Democratic Congress to help them restore decency and honesty to our government.

We cannot afford four more years deception, censorship and fear. On November 2, the Choice is Clear.
