Subject: RE: No Real Choice in American Elections
I am in agreement with Kendall--there is a lot to lose if Dubya becomes president--The clever trick that the Republicans use is to make themselves look "friendly", like they have different programs to achieve the same goals, or whatever, but it ain't true--There is a "conservative" agenda that is absolutely frightening, they want tight social restictions on the middle and working classes, elimination of restrictions on corporate and financial institutions--Bills have been introduced that are intended to limit and even eliminate your right to file civil law suits, and of course, the reproductive rights and freedom of speech restrictions--

Bush favors keeping the federal government out of the state and local governments domains, yet he makes a special point of talking about introducing "values" education--what do you suppose that is?
