This has become so common in the administration, it is sickening. I actually fear for the future of this country, when I think deeply on our policy of corporate government.
All of the above stated examples can be traced to the finances of Mr. Bushs' political history. He has placed into positions of authority, those who contributed to his election campaigns. regardless of skills and background.
If this administration continues, we are going to lose much of the liberty gained over the last 50-100 years, and this is unacceptable. With the implementation of the Patriot act, and the creation of the homeland security offine, we have put into place the beginnings of a totalitarian regime. Granted the first steps are relatively weak, and have yet to be fully implemented.
I hesitate to consider the America of 2010, should these policies continue on the obvious(or not so) path logic dictates. We, the people should wake up to the new reality of losing our country to the few who can afford to control our government, and realize we are about to lose what little voice we have.
I truly love my country, and consider myself devoted to the United States, I am not a patriot anymore, according to my President and his staff. If losing my status as a patriot, in an attempt to keep this country from becoming corrupted by Greed and hatred, is my lot, then so be it.
I am relatively sure many will wish for my departure from this country after reading this reply, and ask you to consider this:
If you truly believe in the direction this administration is taking your beloved country, and support the security implemented here to date.......Why are you so afraid.
