WASHINGTON, Feb. 26 /U.S. Newswire/ -- The following is a statement by Michael Anthony Peroutka, Constitution Party presidential candidate:
"President Bush, strangely, has chosen to run for re-election as if he has never been President. Like the Queen in 'Alice In Wonderland,' who sometimes believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast, Bush wants the American people to believe several impossible things.
"The most impossible of the impossible things the President wants us to believe is that he is against Big Government. Addressing the nation's governors, he attacked his Democrat opponents because they want to cancel his tax cuts and (his words) 'use that money to expand the federal government.' He praised his own record as one of 'historic achievement.'
"Bush has, indeed, done historic things. He has been the fastest expander of the federal government in our history. He has given us the biggest, most expensive, Big Government in our history. He has saddled us with the biggest budget deficits in our history.
"Bush wants to spend more than $60 billion annually on the unconstitutional Department of Education. His Medicare "reform," the largest entitlement program since LBJ's Great Society, will cost hundreds of billions of dollars and increase taxes on our children's children and their children.
"Despite all this -- and much more he's done to enlarge the federal' government -- Bush could tell the governors, with a straight face, that he is for "fiscal discipline" in Washington DC -- a statement which, had he been Pinocchio when he said it, his nose would now be roughly the size of the Washington Monument.
"President Bush says there's a clear choice in this election, between himself and his Democrat opponent. He says he trusts the people, not Washington politicians. But, on the Big Government issue, the Republicrats and the Demicans are Tweedledumb and Tweedledumber, with no real differences. And, sad to say, Bush is now just another Washington politician, promising one thing, doing the opposite, talking out of both sides of his mouth simultaneously.
"That's the bad news.
"The good news is that there is a clear choice in this election and it is the Constitution Party whose Presidential nomination I am seeking. We'll probably be on more state ballots than Ralph Nader. So, please don't ignore us."
