Not immediately apparent

From what he said,
It was not immediately apparent
What he meant.

What he said was:
"I voted Republican again."

What he meant was
Either A or B or C.

Statement A reads:
"I voted Republican again because
God believes in the American Dream,
And I want to help America
Make the world a safer,
Nicer,
More trusting
And nurturing place."

Statement B reads:
"I voted Republican again because
I am a spiritually illiterate fundamentalist
Who wants as much money for myself
And my tribe
As I can get in the short term,
And I don't in the least mind
Polluting the planet
To extinction in the long term
With greenhouse gases,
Illegal wars on terror,
Poisonous soft drinks,
And monkey-politicians."

Statement C reads:
"I voted Republican again because
I wanted to vote Democrat,
But my vote was stolen in Ohio."

From what he said,
It was not immediately apparent
What he meant.
