Bush opponents ‘respect’ country as much as RepublicansTue, 03/20/2007 - 3:58pm

Well, this is one of those letters that will probably portray me as an emotional babbler but it’s been a while and I had to answer Mr. Hedlund’s comments with a, “Say what?” Sir, Americans are still strong and loyal; and I would add intelligent as well, since to blindly follow a leader who is making poor decisions for the country would appear to me to be quite the act of, oh, perhaps a simpleton. I have been around long enough to have shown respect for presidents who had earned my respect and to criticize those who had not, be they Republican or Democrat. My family, friends and I respect God, attend church and respect others, and while people may be growing ugly and unfriendly, I truly believe a large part of the cause is the upheaval and distrust in our country, a lot of which has been brought about by some of the decisions of our current administration. Additionally, it is not only Democrats in Congress who are questioning the actions of our “wonderful” president. There are a growing number of Republicans in both houses who are questioning those actions as well. Oh, and add to that massive numbers of members of our armed services who would add their amens to the fact that staying in Iraq is not going to help the Iraqi people, let alone the entire Middle East. Countries around the world despise not the American people, but the policies of this president and his administration. The only reason we were once a “bastion of truth and freedom” is that this administration has seen fit to make every attempt possible to remove our freedoms and furthermore they are the ones who have made a mockery of the truth. And lastly, the only way to avoid more chaos and loss in this country is not to implore us to come back to God but to implore our Congress to impeach this president and the vast majority of his adminicronies.
