missroseroseI know there've been some interesting letters printed in the Empire before, but today there was an absolute doozy.
I am writing in response to the letter of the editor "George W. Bush violates rule of law" (March 17). First of all, do not even compare Bush with ex-President Nixon. George W. Bush is doing a great job in defending democracy and protecting the values of our freedom. He has not violated any rule of law. President George W. Bush is the greatest President in the world. He is for the people and will always be in history as one of the greatest generals, like George Washington. After Bush finishes his well-done job with the security defense of this great nation, we should place his picture in our $100 bills.
He is really looking out for our troops and is working 24/7 to protect our country from the evil terrorist fellow brothers. We should always keep in mind that he is the leader that we voted for and must respect his decisions one hundred percent. Please refrain from using the words "criminal acts" when referring to the gentlemen, jewel and moral man who is our great president of the United States.
The National security of our country fellowmen is our priority, and we should be proud to have President George W. Bush. If I had the chance to vote for him again, I would vote for President Bush for many terms, but this is impossible. President Bush represents the American way of life, a democracy that he defends for the world and our great God-blessed America that we have a true and honest President George W. Bush - a man in the right side of justice and freedom. He should be awarded the gold medal of honor for every year he has served for this country. My six small children are proud to defend and use as a model of dignity a fighter of freedom that we will remember for centuries to come like our great Moses, who fought for freedom and national security for all the people in this planet.
I really, really wish I could say that this is someone being sarcastic (and it's so over the top that I'm almost tempted to think so), but it does seem to be human nature to deny any and all evidence contrary to one's opinions - especially in this era of hyper-information where it only takes a few mouse clicks to find support for literally any viewpoint. But if it is someone being sincere, than either this person believes very strongly in the "liberal media", or he literally hasn't picked up a newspaper or watched a news program (with the possible exception of Fox News) in the last six years. Heck, most of the Republicans I know are either ambivalent towards or very unhappy with Bush's performance. But then, I guess that's the world for you...takes all kinds, and all that.
ETA: Y'know what this really makes me think of is one of Brian's problems with the administration - basically that not only are they pulling all this illegal crap (pretty much every administration does to one extent or another, it's just part of being in power), but they're so utterly inept at covering any of it up. In his opinion (and I'd have to say mine too), you'd have to be an idiot to buy any of the lines that they've been feeding us - I guess this person either (to borrow a line from an article I linked to earlier) was born on the wrong side of clever or just lives in a bubble of willful ignorance.
