Bush Country Ketchup was founded by Patrick Spero and Christopher
Cylke, two young conservatives.

The Founding of Bush Country Ketchup

While dunking our freedom fries in ketchup a few months ago, we came to
a sudden realization.  With each drop of ketchup we ingested, bottled by a
company whose single largest individual shareholder is the wife of the
Democratic Presidential Candidate John Kerry, we were indirectly making
his wallet fatter.  Bush Country Ketchup was created so "right-thinking"
Americans could once again enjoy this condiment on our burgers and fries
without the guilt associated with enriching an individual whose aspirations
and goals are so clearly wrong for our country.  

The 2004 Presidential election is a contest that will surely be critical for the
future of our great nation.  The past several years have presented our
country with many challenges:  a recession left on our doorstep by
the previous administration; a horrific terrorist attack which claimed the
lives of 3,000 of our fellow citizens; and a continued decay of the moral and
social fabric of our society.  Faced with these problems, President Bush
has demonstrated leadership by taking decisive action to ensure America's
economic vitality, safety, and properly positioned moral compass.
Unfortunately, Senator Kerry believes he has better "solutions" to these
problems:  raise taxes; place our Nation's security in the hands of the
United Nations; and allow the agendas of liberal special interest groups to
dictate our social policies.  We recognize the fallacy of these proposals
and believe that the choice on November 2nd is clear - elect President
Bush to a second term.  

Moreover, we find it particularly audacious that a candidate who has voted
to cut defense and intelligence spending would now attempt to criticize
the President for failing to keep us safe.  And that an individual who has
married into a $600 million fortune, which he did not earn a penny of,
would advocate raising taxes on working families whom he has ironically
had the gall to deign "the rich."

We hope you enjoy our product and do your part in November to ensure
that America remains "Bush Country".
