Dear Mr. & Mrs. Hale,
If I may have a moment of your time...
Why, if I may inquire, would you spew propaganda that is so fallacious? Who, is it exactly, are you representing? Perhaps it’s your fellow Texans.
Has your memory failed you? Were you living in the United States of America in 2000? How about '04? Well, let me catch you up on some history you have conveniently forgotten.
Are you aware that in 2000 Al Gore beat GWB with almost 500,000 more American votes? How about the fact that the issues raised in the 2000 election centered on Florida? Coincidence? Who knows. I try not to speculate, although the degrees of separation between responsible parties in this case are too close for comfort for most.
Did you also know that in 2004, controversies such as voter suppression were centered in Ohio? Their Representative at the time, Dennis Kucinich, had this to say, "Dirty tricks occurred across the state, including phony letters from Boards of Elections telling people that their registration through some Democratic activist groups were invalid and that Kerry voters were to report on Wednesday because of massive voter turnout. Phone calls to voters giving them erroneous polling information were also common." Almost 90,000 casted ballots were rejected due to hanging chads. Coincidence? Who knows.
Bush focused his campaign on national security, presenting himself as a decisive leader and contrasted Kerry as a "flip-flopper." Bush's point was that Americans could trust him to be tough on terrorism while Kerry would be "uncertain in the face of danger." Sound familiar?
Let me ask you a question: Did you place a nearly $18,000 ad in either of those years to fight the illegitimacy of those elections? Who knows and although I did state that I do not speculate...there are some things that make you go hmmm...
You're petitioning the country to vote Republican to prove what point? Did you actually support Ms. Clinton or are you just a wolf in sheep’s clothing - going against HER wishes to unite the party AND the country* - to fulfill your agenda?
The truth of the matter is, the Clinton's - either intentionally or not - have angered many people over the years and when it came down to it, they didn't have as many "friends" as they thought.
Shame on you Mr. & Mrs. Hale, if you are indeed a true Democrat, for attempting to assay female voters during a time when we need unity the most. And if you're not, I'm not at all surprised by your negativity...it's right on par for your party.
* "Today, as I suspend my campaign, I congratulate him on the victory he has won and the extraordinary race he has run. I endorse him, and throw my full support behind him. And I ask all of you to join me in working as hard for Barack Obama as you have for me." - Hillary Clinton, June 7, 2008
