Columbus Dispatch: Bush is better able to steer nation through difficulties ahead
Columbus (OH) Dispatch ^ | 10.24.04

Posted on 10/24/2004 9:26:46 PM PDT by mhking

Like millions of American voters, The Dispatch is less than enthused about the choices in next week’s presidential election. Neither President Bush nor Sen. John Kerry has built a record that leads to a clear-cut decision.

Since President Bush took office, this newspaper repeatedly has criticized his administration’s borrow-and-spend fiscal policies, which have resulted in massive deficits that weaken America.

The Dispatch also strongly opposed the invasion of Iraq, contending the case had not been made that Saddam Hussein possessed weapons of mass destruction or posed an imminent threat to this nation.

On the other hand, neither Kerry’s 20-year Senate record nor his shifting positions during the presidential campaign inspire confidence that he would provide the strong, resolute leadership America desperately needs.

Confronted with these disappointments and this choice, The Dispatch believes a second-term George W. Bush would stand a better chance of leading the nation up the difficult road that lies ahead.

Even liberal newspapers understand what some fringers are incapable of. There are only two choices.

Welcome to Free Republic. Reckon a hesitating endorsement is better than none, and that the American people can dispatch more common sense than the Columbus Rag. But then, they supposedly elected Slick Willie twice.

This is the first American election since 9/11.

Show your support for America, and send a message to the terrorists: Vote Bush!
