3. They refer to Kerry as "evil"?
WHAT do they think is so evil about the man? He stood up and spoke out about the atrocities in Vietnam for crying out loud. That is what a good person should do.

And they also think Democrats are evil? We care about the welfare of other people in the rest of the world. We care about human rights, animal right and the earth. Most of us do not believe in trampling other countries and killing off their citizens in the name of, "whatever". Nor do most believe in the death penalty.

But gosh darn it, we believe in equal rights for gays, the privacy of women, the Constitution of the United States, and moral values that go beyond the dictates of someone's personal religions dogma. If that makes us evil count me in!




From the same article:

When Frank Pignanelli, a Salt Lake City Democrat, wrote a newspaper column before the election endorsing the Massachusetts Democrat senator John Kerry, his email intray filled with fire and brimstone. "You Democrats are the tools of Satan and are corrupting our families and children," he was told in one email

<snip>

But when it comes to policies many of them are queasy. "I voted for Bush. I thought Kerry was dishonest. He was evil almost," said Julie Smith, out shopping in the prosperous and devout suburb of Bountiful, just outside Salt Lake City. "I like Bush because he's a good man and I think he's got wonderful ideas, but I don't think it's worked out the way he thought it would."
