Republican Bill Shireman's Top 10 Reasons Republicans Support John Kerry
I'm a lifelong Republican, though I vote for the best candidate - or the least objectionable one. Four years ago, I hoped George Bush would be a moderate, fiscally conservative leader, firm but thoughtful. I have been repeatedly disappointed.
My top 10 reasons for opposing George Bush, and supporting John Kerry, are:
1. Stubborn is not Strong.
2. You can't promote the Bill of Rights by violating it.
3. You can't advance democracy by imposing it by force.
4. Brave and Free, not fearful and insecure, are the qualities great presidents inspire.
5. 30,000 deaths do not avenge the murder of 3,000.
6. Killing terrorists requires precise aim.
7. You cannot protect 300 million rich by frightening 3 billion poor.
8. In the military, Smart is as important as Strong.
9. Those who seek liberty through security lose both. Security is the result, not the cause, of liberty.
10. The"Last Resort" should be the last resort.
