I am appalled. Sad, disgusted, ashamed. I love my Country very much. But, what have we done to ourselves?
We went from being a free Country, to a Judeo-Christian one. While I was raised as a Quaker and tend to believe right along the lines, mostly, that is so wrong!! I am not saying it is wrong to be Christian.....well, here is the thing. Politics based on Religion......ANY Religion....well, it worked out SO well for the Muslims. That is why it is mentioned as something not to do in our FIRST AMENDMENT......
Torture is fine, as long as our " wonderful and intelligent" President says it is ok. Hmmm another little trait we have picked up.
You can put a "spin" on things, but hard to spin this.......this is a fact. Bush wants to send more of our people to die in Iraq, with all of the money that entails. He CUT help for the Elderly, Physically and Mentally Disabled, etc.......the least of us....on a crusade to bring home Bin Laden's head. Now, not taking care of our own, but giving more money to kill.....who does that sound like? The United States of America?
We, as a Nation, have given a Monkey an Ouzi. It is up to us to take it away. How many rights will be sacrificed to the "War on Terror"? OUR OWN PRESIDENT IS TAKING AWAY OUR RIGHTS WHILE OUR TROOPS FIGHT AND DIE TO PROTECT THOSE SAME RIGHTS.... Can someone explain this OXYMORON to me???
If we start acting like THEM, meaning Terrorists, then it doesn't really matter who "wins" in Iraq. Because, we are lost. (Entry and Opinion by JudeB-2/24/07...with Much Thanks and Respect to those who Fought and Died for my Right to do so.)
