THE PRESIDENT AND THE PRESIDENCY
It has been said you can resent the present president, oppose all he does. That's your right. But you are expected to respect the office and dignity of the presidency? That makes no sense to me. A rotten, misbegotten president breeds disrespect for the position he has vowed to protect.
Look at the record of this one-man wrecking crew, what he did and didn't do. Once you review what I present to you can you be true to your conscience and have confidence in Bush, his mismanaged administration, its effect on the nation and our outraged allies he defies?
His arrogant abject rejection of every measure they bring to the table, principals he knows are bedrock of our respect for intellect and decency, he vetoes. He's turned our allies over night, to his apparent delight, from friends to foes.
Bush lies. His disregard for citizens' rights, his flip-flop oppositions. his miscalculated, imprecise decisions, his attacks upon the Constitution, his contempt for almost every respected institution don't bode well for international solutions to avoid war at any cost and prevent an atomic holocaust.
His long vacations at the height of crisis, his spendthrift decisions no matter what the price is, have sent our Clinton surplus on a fall to the brink of bankruptcy. The list could go on and on. But this is enough to help you see what he has done and will do to our democracy.
A legally elected president is not expected to defend and serve his country, but our country. He is not the keeper of a me and mine divine, God blessed regime. He should consider himself a member of a team to protect and enhance the respect of all for the presidency. But how can you accept one without the other? I can't. I shan't.
Bush has trashed everything we hold dear. There's only one answer to this curable cancer. Get that bum outta here!
