Never Cry Bush...


Posts:


Being politically inactive does not mean that one is excluded form following current events. As a political "atheist" I still am following current world trends. I have not been immune to a spectrum of US based publications condemning invasions of Iraq and Afganistan, criticizing President Bush for his performance in the office (BPO), dissatisfied with everything that has to do with Republican policy. I am, therefore curious where were they then... before Afganistan, prior to Iraq, during the Elections? Noone seemed to raise voice and scream - "this is atrocity!", "this is fraud!", "this war is illegal!" - noone said it or not loud enough! To cut it short - please do not jump on your President whom you have elected and supported to go to war - after all you gave him your mandate -a nd so if you call him names ... well.
