Default Need A Reason To Vote?

I received this from the WCRD mailing list.

FROM: United Four Wheel Drive Associations

Carla Boucher, Attorney

Statistically, more people than not decide who to vote for based on one or
two specific issues and the stand the candidates take on those issues.

If you base your vote on the issue of the environment, or more specifically,
on the issue of access opportunities for motorized recreation, United urges
those of you in the U.S. (eligible to vote) to vote for George W. Bush/Dick
Cheney for President on Nov. 2, 2004.

Here's why+:

John Kerry's position on the environment, access, and motorized use:

* Wants immediate crackdown on car emissions, which can jeopardize the
availability of future models of light trucks, SUVs and Jeep-type vehicles.

* He has one of the most pro-environmentalist records in the Senate.

* He supports the "Clean Power Act" with substantially more stringent
limits on emissions for greenhouse gases, despite the fact that the global
warming theory has been disproved by credible peer reviewed science.

* Plans a "Restore America's Waters'" campaign that would, among other
things, instruct all federal agencies that net losses of wetlands will not
be tolerated, despite other considerations that agencies must legally make.

* Did not vote on Pres. Bush's Healthy Forests Initiative (Healthy Forest
Restoration Act) and later said he would have voted against the initiative
had he voted.

* Supported Clinton's Roadless Rule and has stated he would "revisit" the
rule.

* Promises the end the logging of old-growth trees on public lands, despite
any considerations to the contrary that the health of the forest may depend
on thinning of old-growth trees.

George Bush's position on the environment, access, and motorized use:

* Opposes mandatory cuts in carbon dioxide and does not support the Kyoto
treaty.

* Initiated a "clear skies initiative" to replace the "Clean Air Act" with
a market-based system to encourage companies to cut emissions voluntarily.

* Passed the Healthy Forests Initiative to thin forests to reduce the risk
of wildfire.

*Suspended, then proposed replacing, the Clinton Roadless Rule. The
proposed replacement would leave road building and other roadless area
management decisions to the states.

* 2005 budget will address his promises to eliminate forest and park
maintenance backlog.

Thank you,

I know, just not a very common name so the similar sound led me to believe that you may have knowledge of it.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Well, I for one am getting tired of people logging on under several names and trashing one cadidate over the other in a feeble attempt to sway my vote. I think I am a big boy now and am quite capable of deciding who I think is the better candidate... and nothing, not even the outright lies being posted is going to sway my vote decision, so please stop with the trash talk and find another outlet for your neophyte political skills...you ****** wanna be...
