A campaign of fear

 

 
 
 

My opinion by Crazy Eddie  (5/2/04)

 

The Democrats are trying to scare the senior citizen into believing that the Republicans are going to cut their Social Security. The Democrats are trying to scare women that Republicans want to take away their right to choose. 

 

John Kerry is weak on Defense. A vote for john Kerry is a vote for the terrorist. John Kerry voted to cut defense spending. John Kerry voted to cut intelligence spending. John Kerry voted against every major weapons system used by the U.S. military today. 

 

George Bush is fighting terror by invading Iraq. George Bush is winning the war on terrorism. George Bush will protect us from the terrorist threat.  

 

What do all of the statements you just read have in common? They are all false, and they are all being said by Republicans. The Bush Administration is trying to scare the pubic into voting for them. They are running one misleading attack ad after another. The only way they can win this November is to paint John Kerry as weak.

 

What else can they do? Are they going to run on their accomplishments? Can they run on their economic record? That wouldn’t be a good idea. Can they run on their environmental record? Well I don’t think they want to use that one. Can they run on their honesty, how they told us the truth on why we should invade Iraq? Well that one won’t go very far. Can they use the fact they took a budget surplus and turned it into the largest deficit in history, while giving huge tax cuts to the rich? Nope they better not use that either.

 

If you can’t run on your record, then all you can do is run millions of dollars worth of ads, which are full of lies or distortions, with the hope of scaring the public. A campaign of fear is the only thing Bush has. I wouldn’t have a problem with that, except that Bush’s campaign is biased on lies.
