Desperate email from Jeb Bush
Edited on Wed Jul-28-04 05:34 AM by shockingelk
OK, so now Howard Dean and Ted Kennedy are "Centrist Democrats" and Obama is no longer a radical liberal?

And the new Kerry flip-flop is that He told Wisconsin voters he likes to go hunting with his "trusty 12-gauge double-barrel," BUT he received an "F" from the National Rifle Association. The flip-flopper!

Dear xxx,

The extreme makeover of John Kerry continued last night in Boston.

Centrist Democrats paraded across your television screen to praise the most liberal Senator in Washington and his running mate - the 4th most liberal member of the Senate.

The Democrats are working hard to make Americans believe that these far-left politicians are actually mainstream.  Only you can ensure this doesn't happen.

My brother is the President, and I am very proud of him.  But the truth is, I would be working just as hard for his re-election if he wasn't.

Why?

Because I believe he is the right person to lead.

My brother believes that strong families do make a difference and he fights for that belief.  He believes in the constitutional rights of Americans. He believes you can have a strong, growing economy, and still safeguard the economy. 

My brother would never dream of telling different audiences different stories, because he believes that values are constant, and don't change with the political winds or the special interest you're addressing.

What about John Kerry?  What does he believe?  Well, you can tell a lot about a Senator's beliefs from the way they vote.
 
Kerry has consistently voted against strengthening America's families, including his support for the distribution of the morning after pill in schools without parental notification, and his opposition to the Medicare prescription drug benefit for seniors.

Kerry's views change depending on the day and the audience.

• He told Wisconsin voters he likes to go hunting with his "trusty 12-gauge double-barrel," but he received an "F" from the National Rifle Association.
• He said in Iowa that he is personally opposed to abortion, and believes that "life does begin at conception," but he has received a 100% rating from the National Abortion & Reproductive Rights Action League (NARAL).
• He told voters in the West that he likes "a lot of parts" of the Healthy Forests bill, but he told Democratic primary voters that the law took "a chainsaw to public forests."
• He told autoworkers in Michigan he owns "an SUV... a Chevy, a big Suburban," but then he told environmentalists, "I don't have it, the family does."

We cannot trust the presidency to someone who makes decisions by holding up his finger to determine which way the political winds are blowing.

I hope I can count on your help.

3. And this Jeb is fixing the voting to get his brother there.
Are the Dem going to yell some more about the screen voting and the "list"?

2. I'd rather someone held their finger to the wind...
...that someone who sticks their fingers either in their own ears or someone else's eyes.

5. Jeb must have wrote this himself with this moronic line.
"My brother is the President, and I am very proud of him. But the truth is, I would be working just as hard for his re-election if he wasn't."

Leaving aside his selection by the supreme court, how the hell would you be fighting for his re-election if he wasn't president? The whole family's dyslectic.

6. Who's money did he use to send out this claptrap? Was it state funds?
Somebody should look into how Jebbie is paying for this.

9. He wanted to be the "War" President one day, and the "Peace" . .
president the next. . . he was against a Homeland Security Department before he was forced to create it and claimed responsibility for it. He was against a 9/11 commission before he was forced to create . .. . oh wait, sorry, I'm getting my flip-flops confused.
