Yesterday I was called a coward by a Bush supporter...
...we were standing in a shopping mall parking lot in Colorado preparing for canvassing. A shopper from across the parking lot who saw that we were a bunch of Kerry people screamed out "COWARDS!!" followed by some inaudible nonsense.

Later that day while canvassing I met an active military man who had 400 guys under him. He has been quietly sharing his support for Kerry and tells me that half of his guys are Kerry supporters. As an active military he is not supposed to speak out against his Commander and Chief...

Now who's the coward?

1. If they're so brave, why were they standing in a parking lot here? Why

weren't they putting their asses on the line for their beliefs in Iraq? Those guys are just so funny.

GREAT CARTOON.

7. Cowards give away freedoms for safety, that is what Bushies do
Scared little babies, one and all. I would not want a single one fighting beside me if the sh*t ever hits the fan. Would rather have a patriot with gonads.

3. I truly believe
...there is a silent Republican faction out there who will speak loudly in the privacy of the voting booth.

They may look and act like bush supporters to friends and neighbors and co-workers but come voting day they will secretly vote for Kerry.

9. Good answer!
I live in NC and despite the fact that this is Edwards's state, all I
see is bush/cheney signs everywhere. One house, on the way to my sons school has a "MASSIVE" bush sign concreted into the ground in his yard. I cringe every time I pass it.

12. Next time they want to talk about who is cowardly........
maybe you can refer them to this list of who served and who didn't.

Link: http://www.awolbush.com/whoserved.html

Their asshole-in-chief had a distinguished college career as a cheerleader and then became a truant in the air national guard while his peers were serving and dying in Viet Nam.
