Right on first five
Dear Editor,
A few of my liberal friends asked me to respond to Dick Trail's article of last week, spreading the fear factor.
I find that Mike Hendricks was right on the first five of his tests.
On No. 1, George W. Bush lied America into war with the WMDs fairy tale.
No. 2, tens of thousands of Iraqis and more than 4,000 Americans have been killed in order to line the pockets of Dick Cheney's friends.
No. 3, the Constitution has been trampled on.
No. 4, America has become a torturing country.
And, No. 5, America's poor have become far more numerous and far more downtrodden.
My liberal friends and I know the first five are true, as do most of the country, except the neocons, the 23 percent who still think George W. is human, and a good guy, and knows what is going on in this country.
The last five are Mike's opinions. Of course, Trail knows that they are all false, as he knows everything.
If you don't believe that, just ask him. He is using the old neocon fear factor to scare us all to death if Obama wins the election, which he did.
Since you are so terrified to live in the new USA, Dick, my friends and I want to know, when are you leaving?
Bob Thayer,
McCook
