LANSING, Mich. (AP) -- Some Michigan voters have received phone calls falsely claiming that Sen. John Kerry would make gay marriage legal. In New Jersey, some voters have heard a man claiming to be former Army Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf backing the Democrat. Elderly voters in Pennsylvania have been called and told they are ineligible to vote. Republicans and Democrats were furious Monday about the blatantly false, 11th-hour political calls to voters and demanded an end to the messages. Schwarzkopf has endorsed President Bush, but in a recording of a phone call played for The Associated Press, a man identifying himself...

TAMPA, FL – Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf today issued the following statement: "The Democratic National Committee is making fraudulent phone calls claiming that I have endorsed Senator Kerry. Nothing could be further from the truth, and I demand that they stop immediately. "Senator Kerry opposed the Reagan defense build-up that won the Cold War. Senator Kerry opposed the removal of Saddam Hussein from Kuwait. Senator Kerry proposed billions in intelligence cuts after the first attack on the World Trade Center. Senator Kerry voted against funds to equip our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan with supplies like body armor and ammunition. "I...

HOUSTON (Talon News) -- For years leading up to the upcoming election, the national organizations of both political parties relied heavily on outreach programs and coalition groups for recruitment and to further secure their base. Seeing the success that was being realized by these efforts, individuals not officially affiliated, but loyal to, either national organization have started specific coalition groups to bring together like-minded persons that share similar interests and political ideology. One such coalition organization is the 2 month old Pro-Wrestling Republican Coalition (web site), a group that brings together from across the Country, professional wrestlers, wrestling fans, promoters,...

PRESIDENT BUSH has disappointed us in many ways. He promised to be a uniter, not a divider. Yet faced with our nation’s second Pearl Harbor — a tremendous opportunity to set aside differences and pull the country together — he continued to pursue an ideological domestic agenda, from attacking affirmative action to dismantling environmental protections. And his policies have been not only divisive, but often destructive. Consider: • Rather than asking us to sacrifice in a time of war, he has doled out tax cut after tax cut, and taken us from a nearly balanced budget to staggering deficits. •...

President Though he has made major mistakes that could justify his removal from office, George W. Bush is still the best choice for president for one overriding reason: His unwavering resolve to do whatever is necessary to fight terrorism. Terrorism is the top issue this campaign because of its threat to our citizens and our economy. This danger existed before Mr. Bush became president, but most Americans didn't consider it all that serious or imminent. After 9/11, we finally realized that America is at war with an enemy intent on inflicting as much death and destruction as possible. Mr. Bush...

For a brief decade or so after the Berlin Wall collapsed, signaling the demise of Soviet communism, the security of America as the world's lone superpower appeared to be assured. But the convulsion of Sept. 11, 2001, shattered the comforting illusion that the United States was safe from foreign enemies. It is against the backdrop of this jolting reality that George Bush's presidency has played out. Now, voters must decide whether Bush has met his duty as commander in chief at this uncertain hour in history, or whether he should be replaced by John Kerry. There are many issues by...

By MICHAEL RUBINKAM, Associated Press Writer PHILADELPHIA - Don King, the wild-haired boxing promoter, is touring the country with Republican National Committee (news - web sites) chairman Ed Gillespie to tout President Bush (news - web sites)'s re-election. "Only in America," as King often says — and he did at a stop in Philadelphia Wednesday. "People understand that George Walker Bush is the man with the plan to make America better," King, sporting an American flag tie and plenty of diamond-encrusted jewelry, told a group of black business leaders at a downtown jazz club. "Sometimes, just sometimes, it ain't too...

Why The Jewish Press Is So Special The two editorials I've posted below show why The Jewish Press is the best Jewish publication going today. First, their editorial endorsing Bush in 2000 is a gem of irrefutable logic and sharp, clear writing. Second, their editorial from Dec. 2001 is an equally compelling "in your face" reminder to their fellow Jews of the heat they took for endorsing Bush the year before. These editorials are just two examples of why many Freepers -- myself included -- have been posting articles here from The Jewish Press. Every week they feature columns and...
