After reading about the people in North Carolina that stormed the Repubilcan HQ. American citizens who have had enough, it does my heart good. So I sent this letter off to the White House:
Mr. Bush
In your acceptance speech you said that you will “Unify the country”. Wake up! The country was divided in 2000 and by the results of the election it is still divided in 2004. You won for 2 reasons, Religion, and Fear. You used the fear of terror to sway voters. You said since 9-11-01 you have kept us safe. Need I remind you, we were attacked in 1993 with the bomb at the WTC. It took 8 years for them to come at us again. The fear I think of is this, On 9-11-01 when I lost a friend in the WTC, I remember that the leader of our nation was the mayor of NY, NOT YOU. I remember YOUR FEAR! So you just hid. I know it was the Secret Service......GIVE ME A BREAK you are the commander and chief, you could have ordered them to take you somewhere so you could address the nation, but you DID NOT you are GUTLESS AND A COWARD.
You used religion to win over the God fearing people. I personally do not believe in God. In my opinion if God did exist 9-11-01 would not have happened. Now mind you I come from a family of very devout Catholics. More wars have been fought, more lives taken in the name of God. You said you went to war because “you were guided by God” I guess God only directs you to use your power outside the U.S. We in the U.S. are still losing jobs, medical insurance is out of control, oil prices will financially break those Americans this winter with the run away costs of heating their homes, I have trouble affording the medication my family needs and I have insurance, your education policies without the money to fund it, is burdening us with increased school taxes. So maybe you should ask God how YOU can fix all of these. It is said that you won on moral issues. I guess morality has changed from what I was brought up to understand. Lying was morally wrong, but now it seems to be OK. Plus your lack of courage...Yes I did say lack of courage. You have not once admitted to being wrong about anything, no WMD, no Saddam link to terror, 380 tons of missing explosives. You get the idea, NO COURAGE.
Your plans for Social Security which no one really knows what that is. I just read a statement from Suzy DeFrancis, Deputy Assistant to the President for Communications. She says by the time our young workers are ready to collect only 2 workers will be paying for 1 person collecting. Yet you favor corporations that are sending jobs everywhere else on earth except in in AMERICA.
I am fairly confident that one more lie will surface very soon. As the war in Iraq goes on you will need new bodies. Recruitment is not meeting your needs. There is no easy fast way out (Now that the new Iraqi military members are being killed) so you will have to reinstate the draft, and in turn open the divide of the nation to a gorge.
Now I know this will mean nothing to you, you will do what you want with no consideration for what anyone else thinks. You will do what is good for you and your friends. So to use a term you’ll understand God speed and try to finish your term without causing anymore damage to America. I’ll send you a bag of pretzels.
I know it may not be the most eloquent letter ever written, but then again I have nevver been known as eloquent.
