Rove to Kerry: The Broken Record Administration

John,

"W" and Dick have now both said that they would not do one thing differently knowing what they know today.

This is just too good to be true. It's like they're a broken record, which keeps on skipping to the same phrases, no matter what happens in the world around them.

Let's go open season on them:

"President Bush and Dick Cheney have now both proudly proclaimed that they would do nothing different knowing what they know today. This means that they would still rather snub our allies, damage our reputation, and knowingly put our brave soldiers into harm's way... all over again... even though we all now know that Saddam was not the immediate threat that this administration painted him to be.

And on the economy, they keep talking about all the jobs they created, and all of their supposed tax cuts. These are not new jobs -- these are recycled, downgraded jobs that were lost and then renewed at lower salaries. They call this job creation? And these tax cuts? Well, the ultra-rich got most if it, and the rest of America has to spend the extra tax money on higher healthcare costs. So, it's gone before it even gets into your wallet.

Unfortunately, this administration sounds like a broken record.

No matter what's going on at home or in the world, they keep replaying back the same spin, over and over again. No matter that Al Q'aida is still amassing new recruits... no matter that Saddam wasn't actually an immediate threat while other countries were clearly more of a threat... no matter that Afghanistan has become a drug farm... no matter that Americans have less money and less opportunity now than four years ago. None of these real issues that everyone can see and feel seem to matter in their fantasy land of spin.

Well, I believe the American people are strong enough not to be manipulated by their scare tactics. This country will be more safe -- not less safe -- more safe when I'm elected because I will repair our alliances, and these allies will help us destroy Al Q'aida, and I will make sure Iraq becomes a safe place for Iraqis to live and prosper. Only then will Iraq stop being a threat to America.

Americans will be safer and more prosperous under my administration, because not only will I only roll back taxes on the ultra-rich, but middle class will get a greater share of tax relief. Remember, I am the candidate that supports the middle class, and President Bush is the candidate that supports the ultra-rich."
