Operation Shame On You

Kos diarist Cyberactor is launching Operation Shame On You, a letters campaign that will take on newspapers that endorsed Bush in 2000, contrasting their reasoning with what actually happened in the last four years.

Locally, the Pioneer Press endorsed Bush in 2000. Their endorsement is available from the Internet Archive. It's entitled "Can-do conservatism, move toward center make Bush the more attractive candidate." This is going to be fun.

Some salient points from the PiPress's endorsement:

- Bush led his party towards the center
- Bush doesn't believe slashing taxes is all Americans need
- Bush lacks foreign policy experience (at least they got that right), but his advisors, particularly Dick Cheney will make up for it
- Bush will be a unifying leader

Let's see what we can make of this and respond with some letters to the Pioneer Press.

Wow! An orchestrated mass e-mailing..what an original concept.

The Pioneer Press will never know what hit them.

No, it's not an orchestrated mass email ("Bush is teh suck! How coul u endorse him!!!!") campaign.

It's personally written, individual letters to the editor questioning their judgement in light of the events of the last four years. If you can't see the difference, I'm sorry.
