Folks I found this on another board and wanted your thoughts.
Quote:
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to speak my mind. I lost my job this past year. When Clinton was president I was secure and prosperous, but in the last year, we had to close our operations. We simply could not compete with foreign labor. This foreign labor worked for low pay under very bad conditions. They worked very long shifts, and many even died on the job. This competition could hardly be called "fair." I was forced out of the place where I had worked for 34 years. Not a single government program was there to help me. How can Bush call himself "compassionate?"
Far worse, I lost two of my sons in Bush's evil war in Iraq. They gave their lives for their country, and for what? So that Bush's oil buddies can get rich.
My pain of losing my sons is indescribable. While it is trivial next to the loss of my sons, I regret to say that I also lost my home. I simply have nothing left.
How can Bush call himself a Christian when he neglects people like me? I am a senior citizen with various medical problems. I'm not in a position where I can begin a new career. I was reduced to the point where I had to live in a hole in a ground, all because of President Bush. And when the authorities found me there, did they have any compassion for my misfortune and ailments? No, I was arrested.
Mr. Bush, I dare you to look me in the face and tell me you are a compassionate man! I dare you to look me in the face and tell me you are a Christian! If I had any money left, I would donate it to the Democrat Party. If Al Gore had been elected in 2000 I would still have a job, a home, and most importantly, my dear sons!
Sincerely,
Saddam Hussein

There are "cheap shots".......and then there is entire lack of principal or morals. I am sure the Democrats behind this "tale of woe" are more pathetic than the circumstances of the gentleman depicted.
Not to make light of his circumstances.....but Bush is no more directly responsible for the particular set of circumstances than he was for the 3000 deaths in the World Trade Center bombings. I doubt it would take much effort to find many similar tales of woe....during any presidency.
My son died while George Bush was president.....but the President had nothing to do with it. Any Commander-In-Chief that would do less....in the war against terror...would be doing far more harm to America's security in the long term.
I empathize with this man's plight.....but to "try to tie it to George Bush's policies".....requires the same level of ignorance....required to believe the nonsensical diatribe!
