3. okay, here's it changed a bit
After George Bush was elected 4 years ago, I decided to give him a chance. I heard him in the debates, and he actually sounded so aligned with Al Gore’s opinions that I figured we weren’t losing too much with him in office. His very first moves as a president proved me wrong. I have watched this president for 4 years and have waited for him to safeguard our environment. Instead he has steadily whittled away the protections we already had. I have waited for him to improve our economy and increase jobs. But the only jobs that have increased in this country pay minimum wages. I have waited for him to improve benefits for our veterans. Here he has done a terrible disservice; he has actually made things worse for them, cutting benefits, trying to take away dangerous duty pay, sending soldiers into war without safe or proper equipment. In short, he has proven only one thing to me. That he will lie. He will lie to you again, fellow Americans, in hopes of you buying his sales pitch again.
I hope you will look closely at what he promised you 4 years ago and what he’s delivered. When he makes the same promises to you again, I hope you can say, fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me… And vote for Kerry
