From the Albuquerque Journal:
Some would-be spectators hoping to attend Vice President Dick Cheney’s rally in Rio Rancho this weekend walked out of a Republican campaign office miffed and ticketless Thursday after getting this news:
Unless you sign an endorsement for President George W. Bush, you’re not getting any passes.The Albuquerque Bush-Cheney Victory office in charge of doling out the tickets to Saturday’s event was requiring the endorsement forms from people it could not verify as supporters.
If there are no protesters at the event, then a vision of total support for the Administration will be projected. Much like the Democrat’s National Convention. If there is no dissenters present, then there must be no dissenters.
I worry much less about terrorists than I do about fascists.
Once upon a time, long ago, campaigning was about trying to get people to agree with you on the issues.
If you start with only people who believe what you believe already, that job is just SO much easier.
Unfortunately, most of us don’t want to listen to different points of view. That’s why we watch FOX or CNN, depending on what we believe. It’s sad. I was talking to my friend on Saturday and she told me she’s voting for Bush because he’s a Christian man. WOW. I had no answer for this. I said, Kerry is a Christian. Apparently, Catholics don’t count.
You bet your sweet bippy, Catholics are not Christians and indeed, do not count.
