Krugman is upset about the BIG LIES that Bush is getting away with in
this election. And, this odd notion that Kerry's minor mis-
statements must be examined at with equal time to Bush's Big Lies.
This media tendancy is very annoying to the more informed part of the
electorate. And, it reenforces that sad cynicism of the less informed voters who believe that; "they are all crooks," so why bother.
IN THIS FINAL DEBATE;
It would behoove Mr Kerry to soar above the standard rhetoric; and
avoid the he-said, she-said, yada yada; and to swing for the fences
with some kind of existential conculsion that is above the fray.
I SUGGEST A RETURN TO THE FUNDAMENTALS, AND A RETURN TO SIMPLE AND
BASIC CONCLUSIONS:
AS FOLLOWS:
1. HAVE YOU ENJOYED THE LAST FOUR YEARS? IF SO, GEO. BUSH IS YOUR
MAN!
2. ARE YOU HAPPY WITH THE ECONOMY, AND THE WAY THE GOVERNMENT IS
HANDLING THE ECONOMY? IF SO, Geo. BUSH IS YOUR MAN!
3. DO YOU WANT FOUR MORE YEARS, JUST LIKE THE LAST FOUR? IF SO,
GEO. BUSH IS YOUR MAN!
4. ARE YOU CONTENT WITH HOW AMERICA IS VIEWED IN THE WORLD TODAY?
IF SO, GEO. BUSH IS YOUR MAN!
5. IS FEAR AND WAR AND TERROR THE BEST WE CAN DO? IF SO, GEO. BUSH
IS YOUR MAN!
6. IS AMERICA A BETTER PLACE NOW THAN IT WAS FOUR YEARS AGO? IF SO,
GEO. BUSH IS YOUR MAN!
7. DO YOU BELIEVE THAT AMERICA SHOULD BE RUN FOR THE FORTUNATE,
WELL CONTECTED AND WEALTHY FEW? IF SO, GEO. BUSH IS YOUR MAN!
8. DO YOU BELEIVE THAT THE SMALLER ISSUES LIKE WHO GOT MORE WAR
MEDALS IN VIETNAM, OR WHO SLEEPS WITH WHOM SHOULD DECIDED THIS
ELECTION? IF SO, THEN GEO. BUSH IS YOUR MAN!
9. DO YOU BELIEVE THAT THE FLIM-FLAM AND FLIP-FLOPS BY THIS
ADMINISTATION SHOULD BE CARRIED ON FOR FOUR MORE YEARS? IF SO, THEN
GEO. BUSH IS YOUR MAN.
10. WILL YOU WAKE UP THE DAY AFTER GEO. BUSH IS RE-ELECTED MORE
FEARFUL AND MORE AFRAID THAN EVER; OR HAPPY AND HOPEFUL ABOUT THE
FUTURE OF AMERICA? IF SO, VOTE FOR GEORGE W. BUSH!
BUT, IF YOU THINK THAT A CHANGE OF DIRECTION IS CALLED FOR. IF YOU
THINK THAT WE CAN AND MUST DO BETTER. IF YOU BELEIVE IN AN INCULSIVE
AMERICA, AND NOT AN EXCULSIVE AMERICA. IF YOU BELEIVE THAT AMERICA
DESERVES TO BE RESPECTED IN THE WORLD, AND TO LEAD THE WORLD BY
EXAMPLE AND HIGH MORAL STANDARDS;
THEN YOU HAVE ONE CHOICE: A VOTE FOR JOHN KERRY AND JOHN EDWARDS ON
ELECTION DAY.
TOGETHER WE CAN SAVE AMERICA FROM THE DARKNESS OF THE LAST FOUR
YEARS. TOGETHER WE CAN RESTORE RESPECT AND CREDIBILITY TO AMERICA
ABROAD. TOGETHER WE CAN MADE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THE CHOICE IS NOW YOURS AND YOURS ALONE TO
MAKE.
THANK YOU, AND MAY GOD BLESS AND PROTECT AMERICA ALWAYS.
