Crawford, Texas Home of George W. Bush The Lone Star Iconoclast Editorial Opinion of the Publishers Kerry Will Restore American Dignity 2004 Iconoclast Presidential Endorsement http://news.iconoclast-texas.com/web/Columns/Editorial/editorial39.htm Few Americans would have voted for George W. Bush four years ago if he had promised that, as President, he would: ð Empty the Social Security trust fund by $507 billion to help offset fiscal irresponsibility and at the same time slash Social Security benefits. ð Cut Medicare by 17 percent and reduce veterans benefits and military pay. ð Eliminate overtime pay for millions of Americans and raise oil prices by 50 percent. ð Give tax cuts to businesses that sent American jobs overseas, and, in fact, by policy encourage their departure. ð Give away billions of tax dollars in government contracts without competitive bids. ð Involve this country in a deadly and highly questionable war, and ð Take a budget surplus and turn it into the worst deficit in the history of the United States, creating a debt in just four years that will take generations to repay. These were elements of a hidden agenda that surfaced only after he took office. The publishers of The Iconoclast endorsed Bush four years ago, based on the things he promised, not on this smoke-screened agenda. Today, we are endorsing his opponent, John Kerry, based not only on the things that Bush has delivered, but also on the vision of a return to normality that Kerry says our country needs. Four items trouble us the most about the Bush administration: his initiatives to disable the Social Security system, the deteriorating state of the American economy, a dangerous shift away from the basic freedoms established by our founding fathers, and his continuous mistakes regarding terrorism and Iraq.
