The president wants us

“The president wants us to forget the mistakes he’s made in Iraq. He says capturing bin Laden isn’t a priority for him. And now he’s off caught up in a fight with senators of his own party about which kinds of torture we should use. This president just can’t or won’t keep his eye on the ball. President Bush took his eye off the ball in Afghanistan when bin Laden was in our grasp because he wanted to hurry up and get into Iraq. And now he wants us to forget about Iraq because he doesn’t want to take responsibility for all the mistakes he’s made in Iraq. The American people have a choice on November 7th. If you think our country is going in the right direction, if you think Iraq is making us safer, vote Republican. If you’ve had enough and thinks it’s time for a change, vote Democratic.” — quoted from a (fictional) congressional candidate.
