p> THEY DID IT TO THEMSELVES br> Re: Brandon Crocker's The Democrats' Iraq Quagmire : /p> p>Brandon Crocker should give up real estate dealing in San Diego and move to Washington. The Bush administration needs the clear thinking of Mr. Crocker, who, point by point, sweeps away the fallacious criticisms hurled like rotten eggs at our Iraq policy by self-serving politicians. He hoses down the drain the outrageous and slanderous charges of Ted Kennedy. Mr. Crocker concludes that the base accusations of blindly ambitious politicians are drawing the accusers into a quagmire of their own making. We can be confident that these slimy calumnies will back up and drown their authors before November 2004. br> -- Basil Weir br> San Jose, CA /p> p> This article really hit home with me. I have been so disgusted with the rhetoric of the now ten presidential hopefuls. They criticize and lie without offering their miraculous platform. Is that because they don't have one? One non-presidential hopeful, Ted Kennedy, should be banished from the government for spewing such a hateful speech against our President. It's a shame the media outlets won't publish the real feelings of the "real" people (as John Edwards calls us). Many letters to newspapers go unpublished because they criticize the politicians harshly although the politicians can lie and call names as often as they please to suit their means. I hope the Democrats keep burying themselves deep enough so that we don't have to listen to their garbage any longer. br> -- Jane McNair br> Connecticut
