Letter to the Editor
Bush will hurt nation if re-elected in Nov.

This is an urgent message to all the students on main campus, not to be taken lightly.

Use your power as a citizen of this country and vote this election. The vote in our age gap is possibly the most crucial of all the voting blocks. Remember our President standing proudly on a battleship, wearing a bomber jacket as if the guy ever served in the first place, declaring to our armed forces and the nation that the mission was accomplished. Well Mr. President what mission has been accomplished? How can a hard working Americans, not only in the professional world but in your positions as future leaders can stand for a pawn like George W. Bush?

The economy is sinking and the religious right are forcing their ideologies upon a nation with freedom of religion. Remember separation of church and state. Bush bankrupted oil businesses in the past and has no credibility to run a war, let alone supervise mall security guards. A thousand of our men are dead for what purpose? Iraq's insurgencies are taking a page out of the Vietcong's playbook from the Vietnam War. Guerilla warfare is wearing down our forces, not because we are weak but because we cannot fight conventional vs. guerilla. It has been proven by the outcomes of the past and outlasting our ideals of peace. We have a choice of two men.

I want a president, a leader, a man who has been there, not a deferrent. What right does a man have to send other families' children who chickened out himself? If Bush wants to be on vacation on his ranch building a nature path then let's vote in November tp sending him there permanently.
