My LTTE makes it to print
I'm a bit surprised, as it is more strongly worded than normal for me...

The Best Of Times

The person who wrote about Bush being the best must be living in the delusional world of spin provided by the Lying Liars at CNN and Fox on TV and Propaganda Minister Rush Limbaugh on the radio. Our stock markets have been essentially flat for the entire Bush presidency, but increasing infl ation has actually caused the real value to decrease. CEO pay has skyrocketed, while wages for the average American have actually decreased as job creation has been horrible with many quality jobs outsourced to China and India. Our economy is being fi nanced by loans from China and Japan, while our reliance on oil from a terrorist state, Saudi Arabia, has increased. Conservative Republicans like Chuck Hagel and Colin Powell think we are losing the War on Terror and even George W. Bush himself thinks we cannot win. Yet, if you listened or watched the media, you would think we are living in the best of times. Sure, it is great if you are among the rich and powerful.

6. thanks, but it's far from brave
Brave is the single parent who has to work 2 or 3 jobs just to barely make ends meet, and who has to worry about if they lost 1 of those jobs, their family would be out in the street.
