****Open letter to all republicans and bush supporters on GFY****
1. If you're not just a surfer, and you actually make a living in the adult industry, what do you think the bush administration thinks about your line of work? Do you think he's supportive of your business? Will the fat tax break you hope to get make much difference when you have to fend off an obscenity lawsuit? Freedom of speech is a limited right under the current administration.
2. Say someone accused you of stealing a car, but you didn't do it. Would you cooperate with the investigation? Or would you obstruct the investigation as much as possible to prevent them from looking in your garage? The bush administration sought to obstruct the 9/11 commission investigation and they are fighting to prevent an investigation into the election (among other things). What do you think this says about their involvement? If it was a fair election & no wrong doing occurred, shouldn't they willingly open the books, do recounts & prove their boy won? Do you really think they don?t want an investigation because they have nothing to hide?
3. I know the environment isn't a big deal on this board & most of you could care less what happens to our wilderness, air, water, trees, etc. However, these issues are important beyond all others if you look at the big picture. Even now, fresh, clean water costs more per gallon than gasoline. Wait until it starts to run out. Or when you have to wear a smog mask to go outside in LA (not too hard to imagine - traffic cops in Mexico City and Tokyo already do). Wait until the cost of non-renewable materials starts to skyrocket because there isn't any more. Think steel & plastic - both are finite non-renewable resources. The bush administration is the most anti-environmental administration is history. He seeks to reduce wilderness & national parks, create more roads for logging and mining, and reduce standards for clear air & water. Wouldn't you rather have water with less arsenic than more?
4. Maybe you like bush because he'll keep your taxes low. Or because he'll win the "War On Terror". Well I have news for you. How do you think $87 billion dollars are spent in Iraq? Taxes. And the ?War On Terror?? The war on terror is just like the war on drugs, or the war on crime, or the war on poverty. It's a war you can't win. There will always be terrorists because there will always be people who's only means to express their frustration to the world is to blow something up. Bush can no more win the war on terror than he can make me believe a word that comes out of his mouth.
Before you dismiss this all as "silly liberal nonsense", think about some of the questions I have posed. Are the trade offs worth it? Do you even really know what you are losing? There?s more to bush than the ?good all American guy? image. Do you really know why you vote for him?
