Nov. 27, 2005 George W. Bush isn’t being given enough credit for the good things going on in America. From all indications, this will be the most profitable holiday season in years. Stores anticipate record sales with record sales comes record tax revenues. With record tax revenues comes less deficit spending by municipalities. For your town and mine it’s a win, win situation. Will George Bush get any credit? Hell No! The Administration is beginning to discuss some withdrawals from Iraq in the coming months. It really isn’t much different than what they’ve been saying all along, it’s just that people are beginning to listen now that Bush is talking. Bush’s problem is he thinks everyone is as smart as he is and should be able to figure it out. Sometimes his assumption creates a vacuum, information is sucked up and not distributed the right way. Is it because of a media bias, maybe? Now we know what the president knew all along, That European countries couldn’t join us in Iraq because they feared their large Muslim populations would rise up in a backlash. Guess what, their large Muslim populations have risen up in a backlash anyway. Had we have known perhaps we wouldn’t have been so hard on France, On the other hand, Muslims are only a fraction of Frances problem, 90 % of their problem is just being French. I have a few grips about our President George Bush. Unlike Ronald Reagan Bush isn’t a great communicator. He assumes we elected him and we should let him run the country. That isn’t the way it works Mr. President. We elected you and we expect to be kept informed. If you want us to have faith in your administration, you must tell us what the Administration is doing. You can’t leave it to a bunch of lying liberals to let us know what’s happening. So far that about what the president has done. The President can take credit for a great deal. If not for the strong stand, the President took in Afghanistan and Iraq Syria wouldn’t have pulled out of Lebanon. Kuwait wouldn’t have held elections giving women the right to vote and hold office. Libya wouldn’t have given up their WMDs. Pakistan wouldn’t be one of our best allies in the war on terror. Above all America would still be a favorite target of Al Qaida. The side affects of Bush’s war on terror have many positive side effects to numerous to mention. On the domestic front Bush has preformed magnificently. He brought us out of a failing Clinton economy, one based of fraud and manipulation of the stock market. President Bush has been hit with more disasters than any president has since George Washington or Abraham Lincoln. Yet we have the strongest economy in history, taxes are the lowest since WWII, Every economic indicator is in a positive mode. America’s at the pinnacle of prosperity and growing. And to think Liberals would have us give all this up for the Jimmy Carter days of failing double digit economic indicators and long gas lines. The old adage “Good News isn’t worth a bucket of warm spit” seems to be encouraging the media to listen and report the fractured fantasies of the Liberal Left. Let’s remind our liberal friends, the troops President Truman deployed in Europe and Japan are still there, the troops President Eisenhower deployed in Korea are still there, the troops President Clinton deployed in the Balkans are still there. If genocide isn’t a reason to go to war, where’s the outrage for Clinton sending troops to the Balkans and Haiti? I know I’m wasting my breath asking liberals these questions. They aren’t bright enough to understand the question let alone have any answers. When the terrorists come to the liberal’s house, who will they call on for protection, the military they despise of course? ------------ About the author: Ken Hughes joined the Republican Party at the age of three.
