REPUBLICAN PARTY TREATS WVA REPUBLICANS LIKE CHILDREN

In a recent campaign mailing sent to West Virginian Republican voters, the Republican National Committee claims that if Kerry wins in November, Bibles will be banned and men will marry men. What children the Republican party must think you Republicans are. They think you guys don't follow the news. They think you are all, stupid, ignorant, gullible children who don't see the real world. Liberals don't take away choices, by definition, they create them. You'd have to be a first class idiot to think that Democrats or liberals would ban the Bible. Aren't there plenty of Christian Democrats? You think they've been faking it their whole lives?

Of course, not.

As for men marrying men, well, the way the campaign mailing put it, they make it sound like the Dems will put something in the water to make men gay and want to marry men. Or that straight men will be forced to marry men. They even use a little cartoon to sell their point.

How stupid to they think West Virginian Republicans are? How stupid does the Republican National Committee think ANY of you Republicans are? The way they keep going on, we all have to assume that they think you guys are fools. More than 1000 US GIs are dead and for what? To stop the killing of innocent Iraqi civilians by Saddam. Well, any educated American knows that conservative numbers suggest that over 10,000 Iraqi civilians have been killed in strikes, battles, raids and other combat-related events. Sure, Saddam is out of power, but you've got some seriously questionable morals to think that 11,000 American and Iraqi lives (and counting) are worth losing to get one man out of power. Sure, you've got to break a few eggs to make an omelette, but how many eggs are we going to have to break?

Sure, a few eggs is the way it goes, but over 11,000?? That's not an omelette, that's a mess.

Remember back in early 2003 when Bush and everyone else said the Iraqi's would greet us with flowers and smiles?

That happened what, once? For one day?

It's not happenning any more. Bush has changed his story on Iraq at least a half-dozen times and thinks he can get away with it because he thinks Republicans and most Americans are gullible fools.

1) Revenge for 911

2) Nukes

3) Chemical/Biological weapons

4) WMD Programs

5) Interest in WMD programs

6) Iraqi freedom

How stupid are you?

How many excuses are you going to take before you decide who to vote for?

Sure, Kerry's not perfect, either. Kerry hasn't had a chance to screw up the country yet--oh wait, he's served 18 years in the Senate. He hasn't caused too much of a mess, has he?

Bush on the other hand, can't seem to hold on to one reason for going to war.

Are you dumb enough to vote for a guy who can't seem to keep it together for something as important as going to war?

GOP Mailing Warns Liberals Will Ban Bibles

Fri Sep 17,11:58 PM ET

By WILL LESTER, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON - Campaign mail with a return address of the Republican National Committee warns West Virginia voters that the Bible will be prohibited and men will marry men if liberals win in November.

The literature shows a Bible with the word "BANNED" across it and a photo of a man, on his knees, placing a ring on the hand of another man with the word "ALLOWED." The mailing tells West Virginians to "vote Republican to protect our families" and defeat the "liberal agenda."

Republican National Committee Chairman Ed Gillespie said Friday that he wasn't aware of the mailing, but said it could be the work of the RNC. "It wouldn't surprise me if we were mailing voters on the issue of same-sex marriage," Gillespie said.

The flier says Republicans have passed laws protecting life, support defining marriage as between a man and a woman and will nominate conservative judges who will "interpret the law and not legislate from the bench."

"The liberal agenda includes removing `under God' from the Pledge of Allegiance," it says.

It does not mention the names of the presidential candidates.

Jim Jordan, a spokesman for America Coming Together, described the mailing as "standard-issue Republican hate-mongering."

Gillespie said same-sex marriage is a legitimate issue in the election. President Bush has proposed amending the Constitution to ban gay marriage. Democratic Sen. John Kerry also opposes gay marriage but said a constitutional amendment is going too far.

The RNC also is running radio ads in several states urging people to register to vote.

"There is a line drawn in America today," one ad says. "On one side are the radicals trying to uproot our traditional values and our culture. They're fighting to hijack the institution of marriage, plotting to legalize partial birth abortion, and working to take God out of the pledge of allegiance and force the worst of Hollywood on the rest of America."

"Are you on their side of the line?" the ad asks before making the plea to "support conservative Republican candidates."
