Great LTTE in Today's LV Sun: Bush Conned NV Voters
Today: March 14, 2005 at 8:58:45 PST

Letter: Bush has conned Nevada's voters

Republican voters can justify anything, even the Bush double-cross on Yucca Mountain. Bush voters say the dump was a done deal anyway because the nuke lobby is too strong, and we should have bargained to get something out of it for Nevada. That's good, conservative thought. If we can't stop the possible poisoning of our grandchildren, maybe we can make a few bucks off of it. Perhaps the theft of the proceeds from the sale of our BLM land will give these voters a clue; we don't own most of our state, the federal government doesn't have to bargain with us, and unless you are very wealthy, the Republican Party does not represent you.

George Bush needs the money he gets from cutting social programs and selling off chunks of our state to ease the deficit he's created with his tax cuts for the rich and his wars to control the oil resources of the world for the American corporations that finance his election campaigns.

The 51 percent who voted for Bush in the last election must have been influenced by the corporate media or the "journalists" he's paid off with your tax money. To some myopic Bush voters, all Bush programs are good because he's a good Christian who prays in the White House. It's almost comical how the American people vote against their own interests and feel good about it, but, as the character in the movie "The Sting" says: "It's no good if the mark knows he's been stung."
