NOTHING IS W'S FAULT

Reading your piece ["Crude Awakening," Cover Story, Jeffrey C. Billman, June 3] was a slow-motion tragedy in and of itself. What is your fascination with George Bush? I told a buddy shortly after the oil disaster that it would not be long before some whack-job blames the former president. Thank you for fulfilling my prophecy. Are you kidding me? You whining, crying, left-leaning journalists (I use that word lightly with you because you are far from a journalist) need to stop publishing pieces that serve only one purpose: division. It is your goal to divide this country between left and right and you take every chance to slam President Bush. The former president is not responsible for the oil rig explosion; is not responsible for Hurricane Katrina; is not responsible for the current state of the economy; is not responsible for 9/11. Perhaps if you and your left-leaning pals would publish the truth rather than smear, this country might get on the road to unity. I suspect you won't change though; telling the truth is not a good selling point if you want people to read your pieces.

Boosting the Treasury via Cap and Trade taxation would serve to enhance the scope and scale of the federal government's foreign policy; e.g., institutional mass murder overseas in unending mercantile wars and occupations [Soapboxer, "About Damn Time," Jeffrey C. Billman, June 10]. That solution is idiotic. Starve the government for peace.

How dumb are some people [Cover Story, "Default Lines," Isaiah Thompson, June 10]? These people moved into a house without walls, a broken water heater, a leaking roof? My God, these are not things that were hidden from them! I don't feel sorry for anyone that stupid, even though Coyle is an ass and should be made to remember these people.
