More on the Kerry's Gun assault on Bush

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Kerry noted Monday’s expiration of the federal ban on assault weapons and accused the president of choosing “powerful and well-connected friends” in the gun lobby over the police officers and families he promised to protect. He said it would now become easier for groups like al Qaeda to get the weapons.
“So, tomorrow for the first time in 10 years when a killer walks into a gun shop, when a terrorist goes to a gun show somewhere in America, when they want to purchase an AK-47 or some other military assault weapon, they’re going to hear one word: ’Sure,”’ Kerry told supporters in Washington.
“When his powerful and well-connected friends asked for a massive tax cut, he said ’sure’ and he’s paid for it by gutting the COPS program, slashing gang prevention and cutting enforcement programs that keep drugs like meth off the streets,” Kerry said.

Chuck Canterbury, national president of the Fraternal Order of Police, today [9/10/04] announced the organization's endorsement of President George W. Bush in his reelection effort.
"For the past four years, President George W. Bush has proved himself to be one of the very best friends that rank-and-file law enforcement officers have ever had," Canterbury said from Albuquerque, N.M., where the group's National Board is meeting this weekend. "We are fortunate to have this man in the White House and we are proud to give him our endorsement today."
For a candidate to receive the endorsement of the Fraternal Order of Police, he must receive a two-third majority of the National Board, which comprises one Trustee from each of the organization's State Lodges. President Bush received the unanimous endorsement of the National Board.
"Our National Board, and the more than 318,000 members of the F.O.P., are very well acquainted with the President's record with respect to law enforcement because he has made the F.O.P. a partner in crafting national law enforcement policy," Canterbury said. "He has always been there for the rank-and-file officer, and we are eager to be there for him in November."

Crime remains low - 30 year low. Local, State and Federal agencies are working in post 9/11 mode. People are more aware. We are taking on the terrorists daily. We have Homeland Secuirty. The war on terror keeps bad guys on the run. Kerry is spinning positives into negatives and hoping it scares people into voting for him.
