4. Works for me
Some snips<

In short time, I found myself thinking about power and powerlessness, brute strength amid silence. I thought about our values, our world, our soldiers and the upcoming election. I pondered a question I'm often asked as the presidential election approaches Tuesday:

"Why do so many people support George W. Bush?"


Bush represents more than just a presidency. In the world's eyes, he represents America. His angst, his words, his actions represent our sentiments. Bush's popularity skyrocketed after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. He became the leader of a nation attacked for the first time in more than 50 years. Americans relied on their commander in chief when the monster of our nightmares brought real fear into our daily lives.

I can't follow a president who has the audacity to believes he's doing God's work. I can't support a leader who led the invasion of a nonthreatening sovereign nation. The rationale has gone from stopping a dictator who "possessed" weapons of mass destruction to stopping someone who "thought" about weapons of mass destruction. Bush refuses to admit mistakes even in the face of utter chaos in Iraq, the death of as many as 100,000 Iraqis (mostly women and children) since the invasion and mounting casualties of U.S. soldiers.
