Bush waging war on average citizens

| September 8, 2004 9:00 PM

I believe in the promise of America as stated in the Bill of Rights and the Constitution. Governing for the common good is the most sacred of the concepts expressed.

The real war being waged by the Bush administration is against the average American citizen. Reversing social advancements and consciousness relating to elevating the disadvantaged and expanding the middle class in America is the true ambition. Complete elimination of the middle class is the goal.

The war against terrorism is being used to bankrupt our economy. The intent is to create a two-class society, i.e.: the very rich and the very poor.

Bush and his ilk envision a future with the majority as peasants humbly seeking permission to breathe. We common folk shall not be subdued. Come the inevitable confrontation, in our hands will not be our hats.

I pray my fellow Americans will rise up this November and peacefully overthrow the present cabal. Hopefully, we will smite these tyrants and send them scurrying back into the darkness from whence they dared to emerge.

Exclusion, not inclusion, is the true mantra. Everybody left behind except the chosen few is the intent of the Bush gang.
