Scare Tactics

From the New York Times today:

President Bush accused Senator John Kerry today of engaging in "shameless scare tactics" by suggesting that the president would weaken the Social Security program for older Americans and would reinstate the military draft.

In an interview with The Associated Press en route to a New Jersey campaign appearance, Mr. Bush accused Mr. Kerry of "trying to scare our seniors," adding, "It is wrong to try to scare people going into the polls." The president is to travel later to Florida, whose large number of retirees makes the fate of Social Security a particularly sensitive issue.



This from a guy whose VP practically promised a terrorist attack should John Kerry be elected. Go figure.

To a portion of the American populace, Cheney's threat was nothing compared to Archbishop Chaput's, as reported in the NY Times:

"In an interview in his residence here, Archbishop Chaput said a vote for a candidate like Mr. Kerry who supports abortion rights or embryonic stem cell research would be a sin that must be confessed before receiving Communion.

"'If you vote this way, are you cooperating in evil?' he asked. 'And if you know you are cooperating in evil, should you go to confession? The answer is yes.'"

Vote Democrat, burn in hell. I hope that Catholics who read the Archbishop's comment will remember Huck Finn, who said, "I'll right then, I'll go to hell!" when the choice was to betray his friend Jim.

Where, I wonder, will Republicans go who vote for a death-penalty-supporting candidate who sends young people to their deaths under false pretenses? If that choice gets you into heaven, something is really wrong.

And this is why it's wonderful that The Daily Show posts dozens of clips on the Comedy Central website. How else can one be interested in politics and enjoy it?
