While I confess to being a registered Republican, I am more and more disenfranchised with the Republican Party as a whole and with President Bush in particular. Mr. Bush's latest veto has pushed me way over the edge.
Although he sent our troops to Iraq -- a clear act of "allow human life to be destroyed to save others" which he now decries as "immoral" when talking about stem cell research, Mr. Bush has revealed to all his hypocracy in his politics. He has long struck me as being egotistical and overbearing; now revelations that he holds himself exempt from the very laws he signs into being for this country exemplifies this very thing.
It's absolutely necessary for a President to be accountable to his constituency. Mr. Bush endeavors to play God with his. He will "strike down the sinners" while sinning himself.
The elections of 2008 will not occur soon enough to suit me. This man needs to be removed from power before he plunges our country into some turmoil we cannot extricate ourselves from. He's not only flirting with this plunge with his actions towards Iran, but also his dialog with Russia. In the 7 years he has been in power, our once fairly peaceful world has erupted into unceasing and unspeakable violence.
People have polarized into factions on extreme sides and there seems to be no compromise that will bring them together again.
Politicians take note -- my vote will go for the man who exhibits the ability to bring people TOGETHER. You have my challenge, Mr. Giuliani, Mr. Obama, Mrs. Clinton, Mr. McCain, Mr. Romney and all the rest of you -- make peace -- with each other, with the world and with your country.
