Kerry for the Double !!

Kerry is America's oldest friend, and a true one at that. When the first Kerry man, Brendan, set foot in America circa 575 AD it created a unique link between the lands and a close bond between their peoples. Over the centuries millions of Kerry people have journeyed across the atlantic to our western neighbour, America. These people and their descendants played a hugh part in the building of that great nation, that land of freedom. Also, over the years, millions of Americans have come to visit Kerry the land of their ancestors.
Recently, we in Kerry have become concerned about what is happening across the water. It appears that America is currently ruled by a president and political regime who both lie to, and, manipulate our American friends. This results in restriction of freedom and human rights. Also, by lying to other nations, violating and ignoring international laws, treaties and conventions, America's respect and credibility around the globe is waning.

The Kerry Against Bush movement was created by GW Bush on the day he uttered those now infamous words 'you are either with us or againsts us'. Considering the Bush regime's attitudes and past actions we could in no way be considered a suporter of his, so therefore by his own logic we must be against him. This was not our choice, it was his. Who is this 'us' bush speaks of? To us the 'us' Bush speaks of are Bush, his cronies, his wealthy backers, the corporations and media behind him. This "us" is not the ordinary people of America, Kerry Against Bush stands in solidarity with the decent, honest and hardwoking people of America and the world who have been lied to, misled, had their liberty and freedom curtailed,rights abolished and led into an illogical world of fear, hate and war.
Kerry is a place with strong ties to America. Kerry is America closest neighbour to the east. The first Europeans said to have crossed the atlantic to the 'promised land' of America were from Kerry. Since that day millions of Kerry people have travelled to America in the hope of a better life. Kerry people and their descendants played key roles in the foundation and building of that great country. They fought in the American revolution, signed the constitution, built the cities, roads and rail ways.

We the people of Kerry have invested too much time and effort in America to see is all ruined by George Bush and his cronies..

please spread the Kerry people and Bush haters everywhere.
