"Compared with Kerry, George W. Bush is a coward. This is not a reference to their respective activities during Vietnam. It refers to the current election campaign," says the Los Angeles Times.
And Bush's Hometown Newspaper Endorses Kerry (but the Lone Star Iconoclast only has a circulation of 425. It is not known whether the Bush family is among the readers, though they do get it mailed to them each week.)
"The publishers of The Iconoclast endorsed Bush four years ago, based on the things he promised, not on this smoke-screened agenda," the newspaper said in its editorial. "Today, we are endorsing his opponent, John Kerry."
It urged "Texans not to rate the candidate by his hometown or even his political party, but instead by where he intends to take the country."
