It’s time to set aside hatred for Bush

Ever since President Bush won the first time, and then won re-election, I have watched in disgust the way the liberal press and the democrats have nipped at his heels on every issue.

First, he stole the election. Then I t was those pesky Christians who gave him his second win. Then it was the lies about the weapons of mass destruction (that every major country believed to be true).

Social Security, tax cuts for the rich, Cindy Sheehan and her rhetoric – blah, blah, blah. Then comes the pundits. Now it seems that President Bush is responsible for the horror of Katrina.

. . .

Did anyone ever really answer why John Kerry lost? Could it be because all he could do was criticize Bush? He had no alternative plans that made sense. No one knew what he would do on any given isuue.

I just pray that the hate for one man can be set aside for the good of the country. It has to stop and stop now.
