You Will Know Him by His Fruit Why a Christian should not vote for George W. Bush by Curtis Kekoa III

An excerpt from a letter to a friend - "When I was a kid I watched a movie with Richard Dreyfuss  (?) in it - can't remember the name of the flick.  It - a comedy of sorts - was about an election in some fictional dictatorship.   The constituency was free to vote, however - between a red or blue backdrop of a picture of the country's dictator.  Real funny.

The only time you'll see Bush at the Cross.

"Reality is stranger than fiction.

"At this moment, we're being given a choice between red or blue, diet Bush or low-carb Kerry.  The
whole thing is an orchestrated performance, a theatrical drama with a director, main characters and a
supporting cast.  We're the audience, too dumb to realize the inanity of being funneled to only two
virtual choices given us by the masters of "reality" entertainment.  As long as people have their
Broncos, cable TV and porn, all is well in the land of make believe.  As long as people get their new
cars and homes and keep up with the Jones', everything is kosher.  As long as both parents work to
service their enormous debt while their kids smoke crack - whatever - in a government school and
become indoctrinated with condom and homosexuality propaganda instead of learning math and
reading, blind eyes are utilized instead of their frontal lobes.  

"This stuff about Kerry and Bush's war record you've been sending me is accurate as far as accurate
can get with a lapdog media.  But it's just a part of all the distraction - doesn't matter.  Kerry's a
handpicked individual whose arrant ultra-liberal record - number one in the senate with Edwards in
fourth place - makes Bush's subtle, liberal record seem, well, conservative.  Kerry's garishly liberal
record repels conservatives away from Kerry - exactly what Kerry's presence is designed to do - but not
necessarily towards the fires of a "burning Bush."  It doesn't seem natural that two fraternity brothers
would sling mud the way Bush and Kerry do, but that's life I suppose.  Didn't know they were fraternity
brothers at Yale from a fraternity with around 800 surviving members which has produced the last 3 of
4 presidents, better odds than winning the lottery a few times?  (Click here:  it's near the bottom of the
transcript.)

"Conservatives have been fed - over and over again - the falsities which say:  1) exercise your right to
vote; 2) Bush is a conservative; and 3) if a conservative doesn't vote for Bush or Kerry, then it's a
wasted vote.  (The second one was engineered for folks specifically like me.)  Conservatives would
realize the absurdity of the lies if they understood the source of conservative values - God.

"Bush sports a conservative façade, but that's all it is.  He is no conservative; he has no substance.  

"Don't misunderstand me - Kerry's an abhorrent individual, and it's obvious.  I'm not a Kerry supporter,
but rather an equal-opportunity revealer of the hypocrisy of those who are supposed to "lead" us.  
Currently, I'm composing an essay about Bush from a Christian perspective designed for Christians to
become better familiar with the person for whom they've been trained to vote.  They know why not to
vote for Kerry; they should probably know why not to vote for Bush, too."
