Letter to the editor:

Vote for either man is a vote for war

Now that we are finally getting rid of that warmonger, President Bush, we have a choice:

(1) Vote for John McCain and get deeper into a war in Afghanistan, or

(2) Vote for Barack Obama and get the same thing.

Why even bother to vote?

Millions of young voters must be shocked.

Older voters who remember that the Afghans soundly repelled a Russian invasion know the bloodshed will be enormous.

Come on, Barack, while it’s still time, change your mind. Your last chance. Say “no more bloody wars” — and win.

Or, why even bother to go to the polls?
