Some Quotes:

"The fact is that today's "Republican" Party is one with which I am totally unfamiliar. To me, the word "Republican" has always been synonymous with the word "responsibility," which has meant limiting our governmental obligations to those we can afford in human and financial terms. Today's whopping budget deficit of some $440 billion does not meet that criterion."

"Responsibility used to be observed in foreign affairs. That has meant respect for others. America, though recognized as the leader of the community of nations, has always acted as a part of it, not as a maverick separate from that community and at times insulting towards it. Leadership involves setting a direction and building consensus, not viewing other countries as practically devoid of significance. Recent developments indicate that the current Republican Party leadership has confused confident leadership with hubris and arrogance. "  - John Eisenhower, Son of Dwight Eisenhower, Former U.S. Ambassador, Professor of Military Strategy & Politcal Science

Throughout my tenure and beyond as the 30th governor of this state, I have been steadfastly aligned -- and until recently, proudly so -- with the Minnesota Republican Party.

It dismays me, therefore, to have to publicly disagree with the national Republican agenda and the national Republican candidate but, this year, I must.

The two "Say No to Bush" signs in my yard say it all."  - Elmer L. Andersen, Former Republican Governor of Minnesota

I shall cast my vote for John Kerry come Nov 2.

I have been, and will continue to be, a Republican. But when we as a party send the wrong person to the White House, then it is our responsibility to send him home if our nation suffers as a result of his actions. I fall in the category of good conservative thinkers, like George F. Will, for instance, who wrote: "This administration cannot be trusted to govern if it cannot be counted on to think and having thought, to have second thoughts."

I say, well done George Will, or, even better, from the mouth of the numero uno of conservatives, William F. Buckley Jr.: "If I knew then what I know now about what kind of situation we would be in, I would have opposed the war."  - Marlow Cooke, Former Republican Senator from Kentucky

Woodrow:
Question:

Why do you care so much what others think? Shouldn't YOU be the deciding factor in who you vote for?

Thirteen:
he thinks that he can win over bush voters in the last two weeks

word of advice... if people that are going to vote for bush haven't jumped ship in the last 4 years...i think you can post all the gay little articles you want until your face turns blue and they're not going to change their opinion...

do something creative other than wasting time in your short life, give to charity, start a food drive or some shit

pappy:
