A Tuesday letter to The Herald suggested that the Democrats smugly cheered on the Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez’s ripping of our president.
To the contrary, the Democrats never did cheer on either man. In fact, several high-ranking Democrats called them out in defense of Bush!
Now why would they do that? Strange twist, don’t you think? The Democrats defending a failed U.S. president? Where was the GOP response to this, I wonder?
However, let’s not forget how Bush has allowed our enemies and rogue nation states to become more emboldened since he decided that some countries belong to the Axis of Evil only club – just because of their past diplomatic record with the world and with the U.S.
Let us not forget how Bush’s failed plan to spread “democracy” across the Middle East has caused all sorts of instability now – more than we ever had since the Middle Eastern oil embargo of the ’70s.
Let us not forget that this war in Iraq has allowed terrorism to flourish in more ways than we could ever possibly imagine.
