My LTTE was published!
The Fort Worth Star Telegram printed my letter in today's paper, they left out the sentence about the 300 soldiers that have died in Iraq. Everything else they left the way I wrote it!

Enjoy.

President Bush lost Osama bin Laden. He lost Saddam Hussein. He's losing the war in Iraq.

Bush started the illegal war with Iraq; he failed to capture and bring to trial the people responsible for Sept. 11, 2001; and he let known relatives of the mastermind (bin Laden) leave the country in the days after that tragedy when no one else was allowed to fly.

Bush promised to fully fund education, welfare and other necessary social programs -- and then cut their budgets.

Based on the standards set by the Republicans during the Bill Clinton years, Bush needs to be impeached -- now, before he brings more harm and hatred to America.

2. Good letter!
Why do you think they took out the 300 dead line? Is there a word limit perhapsdo you think they just didn't want to print that?

Well said,a nd kudos to the paper for printing it!

6. Yep --
In the past year and a half, I've had 5 or 6 letters published....kinda lost track!

But they have all been anti-bush. I try to send one to them every 6 weeks or so using the latest info -- trying to wake up a few people around here. At least Fort Worth is a bit more real than Dallas,,,ugh -- those people are TRULY clueless!
