Presidential Election Will Be Interesting
RECEIVED Thu., May 20, 2004
Dear Editor,
When I read that Gen. Meyers said there was no way to militarily win in Iraq and that UN involvement was necessary, I knew that some of Bush's voters in 2000 will not vote for him in 2004; how many is up to the pollsters. Those who favor "kill them all and let God sort out the innocents"; those who said the UN was irrelevant in the lead-up to the Iraq invasion; those like the mall O.D. who said to me, "Goodbye Saddam, goodbye Iran, I hope they nuke them," on September 11, 2001; and those who say "level the mosques and shrines where insurgents hide" consider the Bush administration sellouts who have betrayed the U.S. Bush's apology, Rumsfeld's disgust, and Powell's outrage are seen as kissing up to the Arab and Islamic world. This will be a close and interesting presidential election.
