JENNIFER HORN: GEORGE W. BUSH STANDS ‘SHOULDER TO SHOULDER’ WITH OUR FOUNDING FATHERS

For Immediate Release
October 7, 2008

(Concord, NH) - As the lame-duck presidency of George W. Bush approaches its final months, there is still one person who stands by his side 100 percent of the time: Jennifer Horn.
 
In a column written for the Nashua Telegraph, Horn says that:

• the Iraq war is a "right and compassionate war"
• "weapons of mass destruction may be found someday - hiding in Syria or buried in the deserts of Iraq - but history will hardly care," and that
• Bush stood "shoulder to shoulder with our founding fathers" in his 2003 State of the Union address.

This is the same speech that launched the Valerie Plame controversy. This is the same war that is now in its fifth year. This is the same president who has helped to usher in an unprecedented financial crisis.

And she wants to compare him - favorably - to Abraham Lincoln and George Washington?

"I supposed we shouldn't be shocked," said Raymond Buckley, Chair of the New Hampshire Democratic Party. "Horn has proven time and time again that she stands on the Republican platform without reservation. But it is truly shocking that somebody so far out of the mainstream of New Hampshire voters would be running for office."

According to the Nashua Telegraph's editorial board, Jennifer Horn has "an almost messianic zeal for the core principles of the GOP on both fiscal and social issues."

This is a candidate who has said "I do stand on the Republican platform without reservation." [TV-13, 3/11/08], and who, when asked if she would want George Bush to campaign for her, said that she "would have a hard time saying no to the President." [NECN, 9/19/08]
