"Bush's cowboy act"? I'll bet those aren't real cowboy boots either! The gall of some people! How dare he [Bush] try to slip some phony line by our guardians of freedom like the ever vigilant Vanity Fair! Thank God they exposed this hornets' nest of corruption in time for us to make an informed decision at the ballot box in '06.

As for the rest of the letter, we have already heard that Bush is responsible for the hurricane AND the deaths in it's wake. But it never hurts to remind voters of this just in case those six shooters Bush has in his gun cabinet turns out not to be the real McCoy either.

Gay, I wish you'd focus your energies upon finding ways to reduce murders (15,000+ in the US since the war started) and abortion (1 million per year).

All this talk about Iraq war deaths is very fashionable among your peers and may stroke your ego that your activism is actually accomplishing something, but why not try and direct your conscious to something that is much closer to home?

This war is going to end one day and the killing will stop. The killing here at home will just keep on going. Why is it fashionable for you to protest one and not the other?

Maybe Gay Cheney is focusing his/her conscious on what is most important to him/her. Just because one person does not agree with how another person chooses to become publically active does not mean that the one should stop because the other does not agree with the focal point of the activism.

For those peaceloving people like myself, I applaud Gay Cheney for keeping the issue in the forefront. Were it not for people like this, American military troops would still be in Southeast Asia!

It is time that more people stood up and began a peace movement such as that one (Viet Nam era) so as to force our elected officials to do something besides sit on their behinds and twiddle their thumbs while some of the brightest and best of our young generation are volunteering and being sent into harms way for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!

Shalom

"some of the brightest and best of our young generation are volunteering "

Sure is confusing to protest something someone volunteers to do, while their volunteering is what guarantees your right to protest them volunteering.

I'm sure the left can recruit some of the retreads of the 60's to march on DC and try to relive some of the glory days of their youth, but the fact that we have an all volunteer armed force throws a monkey wrench in their works. Don't see any Desert Storm vets hanging their medals to the fence at the white house like Kerry did. All we are treated to is a few ragtag hollywood types harping the Dick Durbin/Howard Dean mantra of "Bush lied" on the cable networks. I kinda miss the entertainment aspect of those old hippies riding around in their VW microbuses with their military jackets on and peace signs painted on the side of their bus smokin' their weed.

Five or ten years from now, it's going to finally dawn on the people who have continually propped him up as some "great leader" just how stupid and foolish they have really been to put their support behind someone so vacant and fraudulent as George W. Bush.

In fact, ten years from now it will likely be very hard to find someone who will actually admit to having supported Bush. It will be like finding someone in the 1950s Germany who would proudly admit to having ever voted for the Nazi party.

After George W. Bush, the Republicans will never again be able to berate the Democrats for having produced Jimmy Carter.

Thirty-seven percent .....and still dropping!!! It seems more and more people are waking up to the fact that the man is a dullard and merely a puppet for the party. "Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain."

To add to the writer's observation, the entire Bush family are Yankee transplants to Texas. They are'nt the cowboys they think they are. I believe they are in modern slang; Wannabes.

mrs.cheney, that in itself is ironic, i've often wondered just when the liberal left in this country would fight. when 20 cargo ships full of red army chinese landed in san francisco? no? how about if boston or portland go the way of france?no? civil war? would they have fought to save the union and free the slaves? probally not.
save for abortion and squashing christmas, i really can't think of anything the left would fight for these days. surely the lives of fellow humans across the globe must mean something? and given the fact that these humans are taught from birth to hate mrs. cheney, her children and the rest of america, perhaps liberation from the hate mongers isn't such a bad idea. i'm pretty sure there's alot of former south vietnamese people who despise this counrty and all its people.
in closing mrs. cheney, i'd ask you to stand behind your counrty in its efforts to bring peace throughout the world. like ww2, it won't be easy, but in the end, it will worth it.

Are we going to have to endure this Bush is to balme crap for the rest of our lives? I voted of the man and will be thankful when his term is up if only so I amy not have to hear this crap anymore. The man is not to blame for ALL the deaths "caused" by Katrina. People sitting around waiting and expecting others to do for them what they should have already done for themselves is what is really behind a majority of those deaths.
