I got my LTE in todays paper, it was in response to another LTE a couple of weeks ago:

Re: "Obama wins re-election; the end is near," Nov. 10 letter by Marlin Thompson:

Where did the $16 trillion debt come from? Let us see where the majority of it came from.

1. Who started a war with Iraq (which had no WMDs)?

2. Who started a war with Afghanistan?

3. Who brought the world into a fiscal disaster?

4. Who said he wasn't interested in finding Osama bin Laden?

5. Who caused tens of thousands to be killed in these wars?

6. What party was he with?

7. Who got Osama bin Laden?

8. Who has brought us on a good start back out of this mess?

9. What party is that person with?

10. Who favored President Obama over Mitt Romney?

Answers:

1. through 5. George W Bush

(The end was near.)

7. and 8. Barack Obama
