TWO GOOD LEGS

It Don't Matter Who Begat You...

In 2000, revered CEO Lee Iacocca backed George W. Bush for President.

In 2002, he explained why:
When I was campaigning for George W. Bush, somebody asked me how well I knew him," said Iacocca, an independent-minded Democrat. "I said, 'I don't know him at all, but I knew his mom and dad for many, many years. He's from good stock.'

Now, Iacocca is backing Kerry for President.
"All of my best friends are Republicans, and they ask me, `Are you crazy or something? Why are you doing this?' Well, it's simple," he said. "I tell them the world is changing, our country is changing and we need a leader who understands that change that's taking place. And most important, we need a leader who will level with us about how we can adapt to that change and make things change for the better."

And so Iacocca learns another of life's lessons: Senator Bill Frist is usually wrong.
