I am ashamed of some of the American people....

[kentuck]

They are ripe for the picking. They tremble at the thought of being attacked again by terrorists - so much so that they would surrender their freedoms if someone will promise them a little security. They are a pitiful sight. Cowards shaking in the corners, frozen by fear, hiding behind the bravado and false words of a cowardly leader. They deserve George W Bush. They deserve the slavery of their minds and bodies. We hope and pray they are not the majority.

1. I'm ashamed of America

if this is what we've come to represent. November will test our mettle.

2. One of the standard means of initiating Wars

is a propaganda of hate. Its been used very effectively by the Bush Admin.

3. Sad, isn't it

But the majority of Americans are this way. They'd rather be content with watching "reality television" and knowing that they are safe (yes, giving away their freedom).

4. Land of the Free and Home of the Brave

Now a quaint slogan.

5. If only they would at least be led by

someone who has experienced terror things could be different. John Kerry experienced the worst kind of terror, War!

The chicken-hawks pulling the strings for Junior perpetuate a travesty of the dream that our founders had for this republic.

6. Benjamin Franklin:

They who would give up an essential liberty for temporary security, deserve neither liberty or security

7. another one Edward R. Murrow:

We cannot defend freedom abroad by deserting it at home.

8. I'm proud of the American people

People are getting "the American People" mixed up with "the right wing and their sympathizers".

America is awesome. The uncomfortable fact is that there's a sizable number of people that will do all sorts of loops and backflips to believe that the anti-choice candidate has views they agree with on every other issue.

And of, course, there's others who will do the same thing for the pro-choice candidate, but if you ask Bush supporters why America should support Bush, many many many many will think "because he's pro life", even if they don't list that in their top issues: to them it's a given.
