Dear all: Yes, this country deserves better than the current President and that is why I am enthusiastically supporting and voting for John Kerry. The notion offered by some on this forum that Bush is for democracy and freedom is nonsense. He has cozied up to Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Kuwait, China, etc., so called allies. If Bush was really interested in freedom and democracy, he would work on our friends first before lecturing the rest of the world. A golden opportunity presented itself in 1991 after the first Guld War in Kuwait. Instead of insisting on democracy there, we had the royal family continue - 13 years later there is no democracy there. The real interest is oil, that is why we have Mobil Exxon, Chevron, Halliburton, Shell salivating all the way to the bank with their oil contracts in the Middle East. If Iraq had only vegetables, we would never have ventured there regardless of how brutal Saddam was (btw, there are many more brutal countries but not a peek out of Bush). We are told people are voting for freedom and democracy in Iraq and Afganistan. Here is a question their should put on the ballot there: do you want the occupying American forces to stay and run the country through their proxies and puppets?
