Through the looking glass: Some RWers think * and Kerry are the same
From a article by "Constitution" Party canadidate Chuck Baldwin:

Millions of Christians and conservatives continue to labor under the obviously erroneous belief that G.W. Bush is a conservative, that there is some huge difference between his policies and those of his Democratic rival, John Kerry. However, the facts do not bear this out.
As Bob Barr... wrote in (a) column, "The fact is, the records of these two presidents, Democrat Bill Clinton and Republican George W. Bush, are much more alike than either man would likely feel comfortable admitting." Again, Mr. Barr is 100% accurate.
On most matters of substance, there is hardly any difference in the policies of President G.W. Bush and Bill Clinton or John Kerry.

Consider:
*Both Bush and Kerry support "civil unions" for homosexuals.
*Both Bush and Kerry support extending the Clinton Gun Ban.
*Both Bush and Kerry support expanding the size and scope of the federal government. Bush has actually outspent every Democratic president since Lyndon Johnson.
*Both Bush and Kerry support NAFTA, GATT, the WTO, and the FTAA.
*Neither Bush nor Kerry has any intentions of making abortion- on-demand illegal....
...*Both Bush and Kerry supported the removal of Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore for upholding his oath of office to acknowledge God by resisting an unlawful order by federal judge Myron Thompson to remove a monument of the Ten Commandments from the Alabama Judicial Building in Montgomery.
*Both Bush and Kerry are strong supporters of the United Nations...
*Both Bush and Kerry support granting illegal aliens amnesty.
*Both Bush and Kerry support a "one China" policy.
*Both Bush and Kerry support "outsourcing" American jobs overseas.
*Both Bush and Kerry support the creation of a federal police state with the creation and expansion of the Patriot Acts and the Department of Homeland Security.

The list could go on almost without end.

...Bob Barr (is) correct: America has been betrayed by President George W. Bush! Mr. Bush has proved himself unfaithful to virtually every precept of conservative, constitutional principles. As such, a John Kerry presidency would be no worse. In fact, it might even be better as conservatives would suddenly have their blinders removed and might actually start acting like conservatives again.

Funny, but it does carry some truth. I don't think Kerry supports the Patriot Act's most controversial provisions, though.

2. awesome!
I wish Peroutka or Badnarik would Naderize Bush, but it won't happen. Conservatives are just too stupid to admit that Bush is not conservative.
