I read your May 12 editorial, “Rumsfeld isn’t solely to blame for failures,” and I was not surprised that you would support the leftist version of things.
In my view, you could not be further from the truth. We have been in a war for a long time. This president recognized that and chose to fight back. He has consistently told us it will be a long hard fight but it is one that we cannot afford to lose.
I do agree with a couple of points you made. One, the buck stops with the president and two, the American people will decide this November. Other than those two items, the piece was nothing but the usual left-wing drivel.
The choice for president is clear and I do not believe the American people are ready to turn our security over to the United Nations and France. You don’t report much about the oil for food scandal but thanks to cable news and the Internet most Americans know about it. We see the corruption and inaction in that organization and will place our fate in President Bush’s hands.
