Default Senior Citizen Against Bush

Dear Sir,

I am a senior citizen. During the Clinton Administration I had an extremely good and well paying job. I took numerous vacations and had vacation homes.

Since President Bush took office, I have watched my entire life change for the worse. I lost my job. I lost my two sons in that terrible Iraqi War. I lost my home. I lost my health insurance. As a matter of fact, I lost virtually everything and became homeless.

Adding insult to injury, when the authorities found me living like an animal, instead of helping me, they arrested me.

I will do anything to insure President Bush's defeat in the next election. I will do anything that Senator Kerry wants to insure that a Democrat is back in the White House come next year. Bush has to go!

I just thought you and your listeners would like to know how one senior citizen views the Bush Administration. Thank you for taking the time to read my letter.

Sincerely,


Saddam

Sincerely,
I changed your letter slightly. I wonder how many Americans could legitimately write this letter to President Bush? The reason this letter is considered funny is because while reading it you never suspect that Hussein's name will come at the end. But, the reason this letter isn't funny is that while reading it, we understand that many Americans could have written this letter.

All the pro-Iraq war people can keep slapping each other on the shoulder to congratulate themselves on ridding the world of Hussein, but when I take a look at the cost of the war in terms of money and human lives, I see nothing worth celebrating. Bush got his revenge. Halliburton will have another banner year for profits. But, at last count 924 American families have had to arrange for funerals and the figure will continue to climb with no end in sight.

Man... you should try and calm down some. I'm not used to seeing you in such a perky mood.

This is the humor and satire category. We should all, (myself included) come here with a different mindset. Poke fun at both party's candidates and such.
