Crawford Newspaper Endorses Kerry

Our local CBS affiliate (KEYE) had this report earlier in the week. It's just too much fun to pass up the opportunity to point out that irony is alive and well, even in Texas.

A Texas weekly newspaper that bills itself as President Bush's hometown paper
has endorsed Democrat John Kerry for president. The Lone Star
Iconoclast says the Massachusetts senator will restore American dignity.
The Crawford-based newspaper has a circulation of about 425 and endorsed Bush in
2000. Bush's ranch is near Crawford. The editorial says Texans should rate the
candidates not by hometown or political party, but by where they intend to take
the country. The Iconoclast editorialized in support of the invasion of
Iraq and publisher W. Leon Smith backed Bush and the invasion in a BBC
interview. But now the editorial says Americans were duped into believing Saddam
Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. [Edited for punctuation.]
