Abbeville (La.) Meridional *apologizes* for endorsing Boosh!!
On the front page!! Of course, it probably only has four or so. :-)

When Bush first ran for president, he was governor of our sister state, Texas. We examined his track record as governor and decided to support him for the presidency on the grounds that he was a good man, honest, truthful, and compassionate and a good leader....

We continued to support him through his two terms hoping against hope that he would correct his many misjudgments and mistakes. Sadly, we were wrong on every count....

We supported Bush editorially for president not once but twice. We now believe he will go down in history as the worst president ever and deservedly so due to his ineptness, incredible incompetence, and his lack of truthfulness, intelligence and compassion. Throw in arrogance and you run the gambit of what it takes to be the worst president in history....

We deeply regret having recommended Bush to our readers and profusely apologize for our mistake in character and judgment.


Vive la Louisiane!! :bounce:

3. As my grandfather said,
"You don't have to be sorry, just don't do it again."

4. Better late than never, I guess...
I *really* have to question the judgment of any "conservative" who still didn't "get it" after the Iraq invasion...

6. To the people in Abbeville.... if and when the internet reaches
your little town, please please try and use it to do a little research on people before you endorse them on the blind.

7. The REALLY complicit media is still in denial about their role in protecting BushInc.
Now we have enormous Rove/Bush bootlickers like CNN pretending they are all about accountability and truthseeking......what a load.
