I am at an impasse. As November nears, I find myself, like everyone else in the country, bombarded with images and advertisments. Some tell me to vote Kerry, some tell me to vote Bush, some tell me just to vote - but all of them are telling me to do something. I was hoping to go one day without having to hear about the election, because everytime I do, I'm reminded of the fact that I still haven't decided who would be better suited to lead the country.

I know this is probably a shock to my liberal biased Canadian freinds, who would give thier right arm to see President Bush follow in his fathers footsteps as a one term leader. I may not agree with his stance on Gay rights. I may not agree with his tax policy. I may not agree with his views on abortion - but I fully support the War on terror - including its extension into Iraq.

I believe Teddy Roosevelt said it best when he said, "If I must choose between righteousness and peace, I choose righteousness." Like the President a century before, the man sitting in the Oval Office understands this - or atlease I believe he does. I believe in peace. I support any means to maintain peace - but not at the expense of our security.

For those who claim that Saddam was NOT an imminent threat to us, all I can say is - maybe. But not removing a man like him, is a risk I would never want my President, correction, OUR President to take. So if John Kerry, ever wants my vote - because lord knows, as a Democrat, I really want to give it to him - he must understand that we can no longer sit idly by and watch a dictator rape his country and its people. We are for freedom of speech - everwhere. We are for freedom to worship - everywhere. We are for freedom to learn - for everybody. AND because in our time, you can build a bomb in your country and bring it into mine - it is very much my buisness and my concern what goes on in your country.

This is why we went into Iraq - not because of WMD's or whatever was said - but because the men making the decisions in Washington understand that above all else, we are for freedom from tyranny, whether in the guise of political opression, religious fanatisism, economic slavery - everywhere. This idea can't just be that. For all the John Kerrys that claim to understand this, who talk the talk - they don't truly get it. This can not just be met with support, but has to be matched by our strength - economically and materially.

And so, after writing this - I can only hope that Senator Kerry, comes to the same udnerstanding as our President on the issue of the war. I really do hope he wins, but if he does not change his opinion, come November - I'll push the button next to the name Bush.
