Wow, just got a call from my local paper to verify my letter. |
|
Hopefully this means they will print it soon! That would make two letters in two months, better than my usual rate.

1. My paper stopped verifying my letters |
|
They just print them because they hear from me so often.

3. I think this is the draft I sent to the paper. |

There is something I am having a great deal of difficulty understanding as we move closer to this Presidential election. What I cannot understand are those who say they support George Bush because he is "such a good Christian."
I know what he claims, but what is it that he has done in the last three and a half years that shows what a good Christian he is?
Was it his putting tax breaks for the rich above needs of the poor? Was it the lies told to get us into a preemptive war? Was it the callous attacks against anyone who dared to disagree with him? Was it when he called the death of almost three thousand Americans his "trifecta"? Or was it, maybe, his putting corporate greed before protection of the environment?
I am not a Biblical scholar, but I do believe in the teachings of Christ. My understanding has always been that Christ taught that our actions of compassion showed our true heart, not our words.

What went through my mind was that the call was the SS or FBI checking up on dissenters.
