I'm so sick of these a$$hols trying to tear down our President. I am a political consultant, and I admit that YES this is being done to avoid giving percentage points in key states among women to John F. Kerry in Nov 2004...and that it is an understandable calculation on the part of Rove. That's politics. It is also true that it will be shot down in Congress as part of the plan. I understand people are angry about it. But to advocate leaving the ballot space blank or voting for some other party for President makes you no better than the Libertarians, who cost us two Senate seats last cycle.

If you want John F. Kerry as your next President than just say so. But stop trying to hurt George W. Bush over one issue.

We all understand what this is, and our energy shouldn't have to be spent on attacks against our own side by those with dubious agendas.

"But stop trying to hurt George W. Bush over one issue."

Then tell George W. Bush to stop trying to violate my civil rights, and the Constitution he swore to protect. Some of the rest of us have principles, that, unlike most politicians including Bush, are inviolate. Go whine somewhere else.
