Bush's Hometown Newspaper Endorses Kerry

Well, THIS would be good for a laugh if the reasons weren't so scary.




The
newspaper in George W. Bush's adopted hometown of Crawford threw its
support on Tuesday behind Bush's Democratic rival, Sen. John Kerry.



The
weekly Lone Star Iconoclast criticized Bush's handling of the war in
Iraq and for turning budget surpluses into record deficits. The
editorial also criticized Bush's proposals on Social Security and
Medicare.



“The
publishers of The Iconoclast endorsed Bush four years ago, based on the
things he promised, not on this smoke-screened agenda,” the newspaper
said in its editorial. “Today, we are endorsing his opponent, John
Kerry.”



It urged
“Texans not to rate the candidate by his hometown or even his political
party, but instead by where he intends to take the country.”
