Dear Santa. I dont believe in you anymore.
Edited on Thu Dec-04-03 11:04 AM by Mari333
I dont believe in Christmas anymore. I never will. I dont believe people are kind or good hearted anymore, oh..maybe a few, but not many. You see, Santa, my mother is 77 and she has to file for bankruptcy thanks to the Bush tax cuts for the top 1% of the wealthiest people in the country, and because Mr Bush has spent so much on his war and sent all our US jobs overseas and destroyed Medicare..and my sister, who has 5 kids, just lost her husband , who left her because she wouldnt vote again for Bush, and she lost her job from her company, who also went overseas..now she has to stay at a womens shelter over Christmas with 3 kids...no presents, no tree.
Oh, and by the way, my stepson is going to Iraq in January , Santa, and so this Christmas we might get to see him right before he goes.if we ever see him again..his father is sick and cries all day with worry Santa, but Mr Bush doesnt care. My son is about to lose his restaurant, which he worked so hard to start, because no one spends money anymore, and again Its because Mr Bush is destroying the US economy.
Well Santa, I dont believe in you, or Christmas....we wont have one this year, billions of US citizens wont, they are just like us.
Destroyed by Mr Bush, some of us losing our sons and daughters to death because of Mr Bush.
My taxes on my house have gone up so high because our state is broke due to Mr Bush's policies, that we cant stay in our home much longer. I dropped my house insurance and can barely pay the cheapest health insurance. Yes, Santa, Im looking for a job, but theres not much out there. Not in small rural areas.
So, you see, Santa, I dont believe in you, or Christmas, or anyone anymore. Theres a few kind people left in the United States, but not many. I know one thing, Santa, NONE of them are Republicans.

1. I want to argue some point in your letter, but I can't.
I do hope that 2004 brings an end to the grief that bush has brought to this country.
Peace

3. Mari333....
We have all seen the results of this disasterous presidency but it seems that you have seen more than your share.

We have reached the point, I think, where can no longer passivly endure. I, for one, am finally angry enough to fight back.

The battle lines are clearly drawn and the battle field is every polling precinct in the United States. If each DUer can contribute to winning or at least decreasing the repub margin in each precinct, we have a chance.

There comes a time to put aside the proverbial plowshare and reach for the (equally proverbial) weapons. Those times are truly upon us.
