Letter To The Editor

[ironmonk]

The following appeared in the Durham, NC local paper as a letter to the editor. Liberals claim President Bush shouldn't have started this war. They complain about his prosecution of it. One liberal recently claimed Bush was the worst president in U.S. history.

Let's clear up one point: President Bush didn't start the war on terror. Try to remember, it was started by terrorists [b]BEFORE 9/11[/b]. Let's look at the worst president and mismanagement claims.

[b]FDR [/b]led us into World War II. Germany never attacked us: Japan did. From 1941-1945, [b]450,000 [/b]lives were lost, an average of [b]112,500 per year[/b].


[b]Truman [/b]finished that war and started one in Korea. North Korea never attacked us. From 1950-1953, [b]55,000 [/b]lives were lost, an average of [b]18,333 per year.[/b]


[b]John F. Kennedy [/b]started the Vietnam conflict in 1962. Vietnam never attacked us.



[b]Johnson [/b]turned Vietnam into a quagmire. From 1965-1975, [b]58,000 [/b]lives were lost, an average of 5,800 per year.


[b]Clinton [/b]went to war in [b]Bosnia without UN or French consent[/b]. Bosnia never attacked us. He was offered Osama bin Laden's head on a platter three times by Sudan and did nothing. Osama has attacked us on multiple occasions. Over [b]2,900 [/b]lives lost on 9/11.

In the two years since terrorists attacked us, President Bush has liberated two countries, rushed the Taliban, crippled al-Qaida, put nuclear inspectors in Lybia, Iran and North Korea without firing a shot, captured a terrorist who slaughtered 300,000 of his own people. We lost [b]600 [/b]soldiers, an average of [b]300 per year[/b]. Bush did all this abroad while not allowing another terrorist attack at home.

[b]Worst president in history? Come on![/b]

[i]The Democrats are complaining about how long the war is taking, but...
It took less time to take Iraq than it took Janet Reno to take the ranch Davidian compound. That was a 51 day operation.[/i]

We've been looking for evidence of chemical weapons in Iraq for less time than it took [b]Hillary Clinton [/b]to find the Rose Law Firm billing records.
It took less time for the 3rd Infantry Division and the Marines to destroy the Medina Republican Guard than it took [b]Teddy Kennedy [/b]to call the police after his Oldsmobile sank at Chappaquiddick.


It took less time to take Iraq than it took to count the votes in Florida!!!!


Our military and President is GREAT!
