Letter the The Editor: Kerry Better Than Bush

This is too good not to post the entire thing...Thank you Vicki Dow from Iowa. -IFK Editor

(Appearing in the Northwest Herald)
To the Editor:

"John Kerry speaks French and things like that, and he was just too darn fancy for us."

I often think of the good folks from Iowa, my home state, whom I met at the Mayo Clinic shortly after the presidential election and who offered the above as their reason for voting for Bush.

They said they didn't really like the Iraq war, and they didn't want Bush messing up Social Security, and they were leery of Vice President Dick Cheney.

But French and fancy ruled the day.

I wonder what they're thinking now.

Violence in Iraq continues; scandals and indictments are coming fast and furious; and recklessness and incompetence are pervasive in the administration.

The Iowa people also used the Bush is a "good Christian" selling point.

I wonder what they're thinking now.

His corporate-controlled unholy agenda of take from the poor and give to the rich is the opposite of what I learned in Sunday school. And where are the blessed peacemakers?

What a different world we would have had with a different president.

I bet that's what the Iowans are thinking now.

If you care about this country, please read Paul William Roberts' book "A War Against Truth."

"didn't want Bush messing up Social Security"

How was Bush going to mess up social security? Changing it to earn more than 1% a year? What's wrong with that?

"Violence in Iraq continues"

So? Was there less violence in the war you liberals started back in the 60's?

"incompetence are pervasive in the administration"

Care to elaborate as opposed to spewing rhetoric?

"agenda of take from the poor and give to the rich?

Oh pleeeeez......Do you really believe that nonsense?

"What a different world we would have had with a different president."

Yes it would be and it frightens me to think what kind of world it would be if the liar Kerry were elected.

Let me guess Michael, you're a swift boater of the truth. I hate to break it to you, but the only liar is our current and soon to be lame duck President Bush.

Even hard core conservatives have a hard time stomaching his lack of leadership on Iraq, Katrina, healthcare, global warming, energy independence, torture, spying on Americans...

Where have you been buddy? Turn off Fox News and join your reality based fellow Americans. It's time to FIRE the liars who run our country.

It's starting in 2006 in the House and Senate and after that in 08 with the whitehouse.
