Bush Campaign Doesn't Believe In Freedom of Speech |
From the John Kerry Blog:
This unbelievable report just in from Michigan!
It's true. My family and I were kicked out of a Bush rally last week because
of my NARAL Pro-Choice America t-shirt. They ripped up our tickets and told
us, "We don't accept any pro-choice, non-Republican paraphernalia.'"
What this told me about Bush was, "If you're pro-choice, you're not welcome
in his campaign." That's why when NARAL Pro-Choice America asked me to
support their work, including electing a pro-choice president, I said,
"Absolutely."
Now you can show the Bush team you won't be silenced by wearing your very
own BANNED-BY-BUSH t-shirt. When you buy your t-shirt, the proceeds will
support the very cause to which the Bush campaign objected: protecting
women's privacy rights and choice. Click here to get yours today.
The Saginaw News told my unbelievable story, "The family reports that 'a
young male campaign worker confiscated the offending apparel upon the
family's 4:30 p.m. arrival. He returned with two others and asked the trio
to leave about an hour later... The guard then grabbed their three tickets
from Barbara Miller's hand, ripped them up 'violently' and told her,
'They're no good anymore,' she said."
Afterward, my husband told the newspaper, "I was probably voting for Kerry
before. Now I'm 100 percent sure. Maybe I'll start campaigning for him.
Maybe I'll start fund-raising." So when NARAL Pro-Choice America called and
asked me to help them elect a pro-choice president by telling my story, I
didn't hesitate.
Take a lesson from my family - It's not just our right to choose that Bush
doesn't accept, but our freedom of speech, too.
Show Bush he can't tell us what to do with our reproductive health and he
can't tell us what to wear. $30 gets you your own BANNED-BY-BUSH t-shirt.
Click here to wear it with pride wherever you go. Not only will you receive
the t-shirt Bush loves to hate, but all t-shirt proceeds will be used to
support the very cause to which the Bush Campaign objected: ensuring that a
woman's right to choose remains private, safe and legal.
And if you live in Michigan, support our NARAL Pro-Choice America affiliate,
MARAL Pro-Choice Michigan, by clicking here and learning what you can do
right here in Michigan to protect choice.
Sincerely,
Barbara Miller,
Pro-Choice American

Come now, you didn't seriously need to be told this?
Bush, like all Republicans, merely pays lip service to
"cornerstone" issues such as abortion. However, "lip
service" would most definitely include what takes place
at rallies.
