Letter: Kerry, not Bush, displays integrity

Thursday, May 27, 2004 | 9:24 a.m.

The most powerful office in this country is that of the president. George Bush arrived at that office without experience in national government, without knowledge of foreign relations and with an undistinguished personal history. His immense wealth permitted him to secure a Republican majority in Congress that praises and attempts to defend his actions. His relationships with Vice President Dick Cheney and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld provide evidence of their self-interests.

Hypocrisy, deceit and secrecy cloak dishonorable actions. Their oversight, mistaken judgment and greed have complicated and jeopardized efforts to align ourselves with other world powers.

Bush smatters smut on John Kerry in his campaign ads, and continues to spend billions of taxpayer money. Are we ignorant or do we just keep our heads in the sand? Kerry has proven his integrity by his record. He has outlined his programs, which do not ignore the people of this country. Kerry is the catalyst for truth in government, peace in the world, and a progressive America -- for Americans.
