Bush's Platform

Dear Editor,
   Here's what Bush must run on in November:
   1) An unjust war, responsible for thousands of civilian deaths and hundreds of U.S. military deaths, based on lies for the purpose of re-election and Republican profiteering
   2) A foreign policy that has destabilized our position in the world
   3) Health care policies that benefit large insurance and drug companies while sticking it to most Americans
   4) A phony Wall Street economic recovery, inflated by deficit spending and tax cuts for the rich (the "Leave No Millionaire Behind" policy), that has not produced good paying jobs for the middle class
   5) A loss of more jobs in America than any other president since Hoover
   6) Unfunded mandates in education that leave all but rich children behind. The U.S. is now last in education among first world countries.
   7) The richest 20% of the U.S. population now owns 85% of the nation's total wealth, while poverty has reached an all-time high.
   8) Homelessness has risen by 40-50% on a nationwide level.
   9) The worst environmental record of any U.S. president
   10) The national debt is now over $7 trillion; that's $7,000,000,000,000.00!
   Now he wants to spend a trillion dollars to go to Mars. I think he should go. Alone.
