A PA. college Republican wrote me back about Democrats never being able to understand they are the party of the fringe groups, and supporters of killing babies for the heck of it, supporting perversion in allowing gay couples unions, and hurting our defense, by being against the president on Iraq and terrorism.
My reply I sent today to him:
You won't be able to refute anything I say, my dear Bush supporter.
How can any American be proud of W and believe there's any honor left in this (mis)administration when they have divulged a CIA undercover agent in an act of revenge? That's treason, and had the Clinton White House did it, you'd be pumping your chest up blowing off saying he needed arrested and thrown in prison immediately.
How can any American be proud of W and believe there's any honor in this man when he continues an illegal war that was shoved down our throats as needed to stop Saddam from using WMD's on us, when there weren't any WMD as Bush had to admit recently, and that the man who blew up the WTC is still free and Bush says he doesn't think about him anymore. That's shameful, had any other president ignored the man who did this, several years after it happened, their "backers" would have turned on them by now, but there's a whole slew of fanatics that still support Mr. Bush.
So, how can any American be proud of W & trust a president who so willingly admits he did get no approval from his Attorney General for wiretaps and spying on American citizen's calls, and ignored the FISA court laws made nearly 30 years ago that were enacted because of Nixon going a tad overboard with power himself, and still support such incredible disrespect for the freedom & liberties guaranteed by our constitution, especially when he SWORE to defend to uphold these very LAWS. They scream about the rule of law, but it is just bravado.
Add in the constant stream of Republican corruption (Majority Leader Delay, and the California Rep. accepting millions, and lobbying by big oil/energy to get private meetings with Cheney to set the "laws" they would be "regulated" by, we see how that's all worked out).
And, the office of the presidency is about how you appear in public, and if you cannot see that Bush makes a constant FOOL of himself (zipper down in South American Trade discussions, the Asian trip where he looked dumber than a rock with the door that opened the OTHER way, and his constant stream of facial injuries, and his constant litany of speech screwups in the hundreds, like "too many ob G Y N's can't practice their love WITH women all across this country), the dude's gotta be on drugs or should be!
We laugh at him, as a nation (I've found very little support for him where I used to find moderate support in most places), but it's not funny, he's doing a horrible job and why nothing he wants passes now. Republicans are running scared. They should be, they are the party of Wrong, and the W is for Dubya!
You shouldn't be proud of that, but, you'll be too proud to admit you should switch thoughts on the administration (even if you stay Republican, you should switch, but I would never expect you to change your close-minded policies so quickly until it effects you personally, ala a personal "Katrina" where your government basically allows you to die, due to indifference on the part of FEMA & the White House, but hey, Brownie's suit sure looked nice on Good Morning America on that first morning, didn't it?).
On behalf of my 4 members of my family who've fought in wars (2 in Iraq), I say enjoy your freedom to support such a useless president, and international joke. This wouldn't have been this long if he wasn't so bad! He sure lives up to "Christian priciples" with honor, huh? Not even sure if Pat Robertson is any worse than Bush, because Bush has a REAL effect on what happens to the poor & the simple who rely on him to be a moral man out for their interests, but, it'd take a real dupe to not see who he benefits!
Have a great year, and I sure hope it's not as bad as Santorum's is gonna be, or some other soon to be ousted Republicans (starting with Abramoff's buddy, Tom Delay, the POSTER child for Republican corruption!).
