I could go on and on about the ridiculous man we are calling our president these days. His cowboy comments like, "Bring it on," that can only serve to incite the Iraqi insurgents who are threatening our troops (and sometime soon my friend C___ who is headed there!) are useless and furthermore, they are unbecoming the leader of the free world (don't think it doesn't pain me to refer to him this way).
Why, I wonder, is there no Democrat willing to stand up and make the American people and the press take notice of this dangerous man? Isn't it worth the risk to one's own political viability to do the right thing for the American public? Why can't the Democrats take some money...enough for one television ad...and run a commercial spot that lays his hypocrisy bare? Remember the Jon Stewart clip, in which he did a side by side of Governor George W. Bush during the 2000 Presidential debates and (p)Resident George W. Bush during his scripted press conference and exposed his penchant for talking out of both sides of his mouth? Why can't the Dems run an ad like that? So what if people get pissed off? Since when are we a bunch of pussies? Is there not one true Democratic leader willing to forego his political future as an elected official in order to ensure that this country is pulled back from the treacherous path we are on? Yes, I am calling on someone, anyone credible in the Democratic party, to fall on his or her sword in the name of the future of this country.
A little dramatic, yes. But I would do it.
I wonder if anyone in America knows (or cares) that Liberia is an African nation founded by former American slaves.
