Catholics back Bush
Sen. John Kerry may be shifting the Catholic vote permanently into the
Republican column. Not since Ronald Reagan beat President Jimmy Carter
will a Republican garner more Catholic votes than President Bush.
Sen. John Kerry, who is Catholic, led President Bush, a Methodist, by
48 percent to 43 percent among Catholics. Today, the ratio has changed
to 53 percent to 36 percent in Mr. Bush's favor, reports Barna, which
specializes in religious polling.
Billionaire lament
Billionaire George Soros is afraid his millions in contributions to
defeat President Bush are not working. So, he is canceling a trip to
Russia, throwing in a few more million dollars and is taking to the
stump himself.
When Soros was asked about spending millions to defeat Bush after
spending millions to keep money out of politics, he replied, “I play
by the rules that prevail. I've got a bevy of lawyers making sure that
I do. At the same time, I'm in favor of improving the rules."
Soros may need more than lawyers before this is all over. He may need
to realize that the world does not exist according to his theories.
Wrong ground, dudes
Sun-Tzu in "The Art of War" states that is wrong to fight on bad
ground. Sen. John Edwards campaigning in ‘Blue state’ New Jersey
demonstrates that the Kerry-Edwards campaign is campaigning on bad
ground. If Kerry is to win, he must be campaigning in red states --
not blue states. Just how bad off the Kerry campaign is can been seen
in the fact that Kerry is parked in Blue state Wisconsin and Edwards
is campaigning in New Jersey.
Al Gore won New Jersey in the 2000 election by 16 percentage points.
Old media’s death?
Barbara Streisand is bemoaning that the old media no longer gets away
with only pushing one philosophy down the throats of the public.
Streisand has sent an op-ed piece to the LA Times suggesting that
dissenting views are no longer followed with the same single minded
belief as in the past.
The interpretation is that CBS, which equals ‘Can’t Believe Stories,’
and other old media are no longer the only source of news. Or, we
could say that one philosophically liberal interpretation of what is
truth no longer exists.

Kerry hurting Democrats
The Associated Press is reporting that Kerry’s candidacy is hurting
other Democrat candidates. The chances of Democrats winning are fading
with the Kerry debacle that is currently unfolding. No one wants to
call it over until after the debates. However, even Senate Minority
Leader Tom Daschle is seen in his own commercials hugging President
Bush. There are no such commercials with Daschle and Kerry.

The lie game
– or, al Qaida doesn’t exist
Editorial by: Roger Wm. Hughes
Sen. John Kerry’s campaign continues to try and push the myth that
Iraq and al Qaida have no connection. Even the 9-11 Commission said
there is a connection. They did say that there is no evidence of a
direct connection between Iraq and the 9-11 incident, however.
Kerry recently said on ABC news, "We should not have gone to war
knowing the information that we know today," Kerry told ABC. "Knowing
there was no imminent threat to America, knowing there were no weapons
of mass destruction, knowing there was no connection of Saddam Hussein
to al Qaida, I would not have gone to war. That's plain and simple."
It is plain and simple that Kerry would have left Iraq as a safe haven
for terrorists and the transfer of if - not chemical weapons - at
least access to scientists who could teach terrorists how to make
chemical weapons. Kerry would have left in place Saddam Hussein who
through the U.N. Food For Peace Program was taking in $10 billion in
kickbacks from France, Germany and Russia to just name a few. He would
have allowed that $10 billion to be used to by Hussein to achieve his
avowed goal of destroying America. Kerry would discount the number of
al Qaida trained operatives who were and still are in Iraq...
operatives who personally have beheaded Americans.
Kerry wonders why he is viewed as a weak, effeminate, useless male who
is incapable of defending America. Gee, I wonder why...
Moore protest
Minnesota College Republicans are fighting any attempt by University
of Minnesota officials to bring Michael Moore to campus for an
anti-Bush rally.
College Republicans said they were responding to news reports that
university officials are negotiating to bring Mr. Moore to campus as
part of his "Slacker Uprising Tour" in support of Sen. John Kerry.
"University of Minnesota students and Minnesota taxpayers shouldn't be
forced to foot the bill to bring this partisan hack, Michael Moore,
into town to campaign for John Kerry just days before the election,"
said Jake Grassel, chairman of Minnesota College Republicans. "Michael
Moore should be free to spout his partisan and vile hate speech, but
the rest of us shouldn't be forced to pay for it."
Jackson’s action
According to the Associated Press, civil rights activist Jesse Jackson
joined the campaign of Sen. John Kerry on Wednesday as a poll showed
support for the presidential candidate slipping among black Americans,
a critical Democratic constituency.
The Pew Research Center said Tuesday its latest poll showed 73 percent
of blacks supporting Kerry compared to 12 percent supporting President
Bush. In 2000, Al Gore won 90 percent of the black vote.
