A letter to J. F. Kerry
Denny Wilson at
Grouchy Old Cripple had this wonderful letter to Presidential hopeful John F. Kerry:
bq. July 10, 2004
Dear Senator Kerry,
bq. I would first of all like to congratulate Senator Kerry on his nomination and also thank you for giving me the opportunity to speak my mind. I lost my job this past year. When Clinton was president, I worked in a prosperous enterprise. But in this last year, we had to close our operations. Far worse, I lost two of my sons in Bush's evil war in Iraq. They gave their lives for their country, and for what?
bq. My pain of losing my sons is indescribable. While it is trivial next to the loss of my sons, I regret to say that I also lost my homes. I simply had nothing left.
bq. I am a senior citizen with various medical problems. I'm not in a position here I can begin a new career. I was reduced to the point where I was homeless, all because of President Bush. And when the authorities found me, did hey have any compassion for my misfortune and ailments? No, I was arrested. If I had any money left, I would donate it to the Democratic party. If Al Gore had been elected in 2000, I guarantee you, I would still have a job, a home, and most importantly, my sons!
bq. Regards,
Saddam Hussein
