day 87/reason 14: ethics
Another reason to vote the Repubs out of power in November is that although they are more than happy to give lip service to "values" this campaign season, it's clear that they are actually lacking in ethical standards.
I posted yesterday about the Louisian congressman who changed parties during the final minutes of registering for the election. Now check out this link about paid signature gatherings collecting signatures at a Bush picnic to put Nader on the ballot. Bush campaign people deny involvement but the gatherers were reportedly given a script in which they were to ask prospective signers if they had could "take a second to help President Bush," and were supposed to point out that without Nader on the 2000 ballot, Gore would have won. ¶ 12:28 PM
