This is the title Pudentilla believes the DNC should give to their own flyer, which Pudentilla believes they should circulate in Arkansas and West Virigina. According to the a NYT story,
"the Republican Party acknowledged yesterday sending mass mailings to residents of two states warning that "liberals" seek to ban the Bible. It said the mailings were part of its effort to mobilize religious voters for President Bush."
Under the banner headline, "Republicans Think Christians Are Stupid," Pudentilla believes the following text should appear.
That's right. Republicans think a God-fearing, Christian (especially one who lives in rural states) is dumber than a post. What else could explain the flyer the Republican National Party distributed last week claiming that "liberals" would ban the Bible if John Kerry were elected.
Two second's reflection reveals that the claim is stupid and crazy. But the Republican National Party thinks that God-fearing, Christians in Arkansas and West Virginia are too stupid to give their own votes for the presidency of the United States two second's worth of reflection. They think they can just push a button by saying "liberal," "Bible," and "ban" in the same sentence and God-fearing, Christians in rural states will march like machines into the voting booth and vote for George Bush.
John Kerry believes that all Americans take this election very seriously. We are a country at war against a very, difficult and dangerous enemy. Our economy is weak. Our health care system is failing. Our schools need help. In times like these, all Americans are following the campaign closely and reflecting on it seriously. We invite you to visit our web-site and consider the positions we have taken and the arguments for them. We ask for your informed vote. We don't take your vote for granted. And we don't think we can "push a button" to get your vote.
And no, Mr. Bush, liberals aren't going to ban the Bible. Liberals, from farms and cities and small towns have fought for centuries so that Americans could have the freedom to practice their faith in public and with the respect of all citizens.
