(CNSNews.com) - This year's presidential election is more than just a political race for liberal and conservative activists. It's a foot race too. The group Run Against Bush is using one of the president's favorite activities - running -- to raise money aimed at preventing Bush from obtaining a second term. The group offers T-shirts for a $25 donation, helps members communicate about upcoming road races and how to plan their own, and encourages members to solicit athletic "sponsors" so the funds can be used in the campaign against Bush. William Coleman, the co-founder of Run Against Bush, said his...

Run Against Bush also has "Jog Against Bush" jaunts. As I've commented before, they have no "Run FOR Kerry" shindigs. I wonder why?? Hee hee hee. From their blog: Madison, WI - Get on TV! I just got off the phone with a...

In my last race I breezed past one of these "Run Against Bush" losers. As I mentioned in my post about this group, I find it hilarious that the dimmy-crats are unable to run for Kerry. They have to run against our president. I live in the Chicago area and won't be able to make it, but attention NYC and New York metro Freepers!! The negatively charged "Run Against Bush" group is filming a TV commercial in Central Park next Tuesday (June 22). Give them a FReeper "hello." This is from their web site: "Why Are You Running?"
