Dear Mr. President
It appears you now have your first terrorists attack within the borders of the United States of America.
His name is Private William A. Long, age 23, from Conway, Arkansas, and he is another casualty of the war on terror. His family will morn their loss and miss him. PVT Long was standing in front of the US Army Recruiter’s office in Little Rock, Arkansas when a Muslim terrorist murdered him three days ago.
There is a very troubling aspect to this tragic and wholly unnecessary event. You, as Commander in Chief could not find time in your busy day to make any public comment on this tragedy. It has been 3 days since he was cut down in early adulthood and you have not found the time or the will to say anything about it.
The reason this is so troubling is because you did find time, within hours, to express your distaste for the “heinous act of violence” against an abortionist who also was tragically murdered.
I believe you have allowed liberal partisan politics to cloud your judgment. Who is more worthy of the attention of the President of the United States, an abortionist or a US Soldier? Which one works for you, for all of us, and which one worked for himself?
The answer is clear to responsible Americans. Moreover, our military personnel are witnessing your priorities.
Thank you for your Support.

Now That We Own General Motors and Chrysler...
6/03/2009 2:10 PM
Dear Mr. President
Now that we taxpayers own General Motors and Chrysler, I have a few questions.
Can we order them keep the Pontiac line? I have always liked Pontiacs, starting with my first, a 1961 Pontiac Catalina that I modified with a 421 C.U. V8, with trips (3 two barrel carburetors) and a 4 speed. I always wanted a 1964 GTO; but it was always out of my reach.
Do you think we could get Pontiac to make a retro-version of the GTO that looks similar to the 1964 model? After all, just recall what the retro-Thunderbird did for Ford. They did not need bailout money.
The next question is about company benefits. Do you think the rest American people could receive similar benefits to the ones UAW members are getting? I especially like the benefit I witnessed from a friend’s step-father who worked at the Cleveland Ford Motor Company on Brook Park Road. My friend’s father would take an entire month off to drink beer and still get paid at rate that was 95% of his regular salary. Sweet!
Maybe you could fix health care in America, one of your priorities I’ve heard, by giving Americans the UAW style health care insurance. That’s it! That’s the answer to universal health care! We could also fix Social Security with a UAW style pension plan. Why didn’t I think of this before? Since we have given part of the automakers ownership to Canada, maybe we could get some of their health care insurance as well.
Would we be able to get special employee discounts on GM vehicles? I would really like to know this one because my Chevy truck has over 70,000 miles on it and I’m thinking it’s time for a new one. Its mileage has dropped from 21 MPG to 17 MPG on the highway, which I drive 56 miles each day. Oh wait, that drop may be due to the mandated ethanol in the regular unleaded I use.
Lastly, I want to thank you, Mr. President, for finally putting those mean old profiteering car makers out of business. Who knows what kind of gas guzzlers they would come out with next?
Thank you for your support

Black Panthers for Self Defense, or What?
5/30/2009, 4:03 PM
Dear Mr. President.
The Justice Department’s Attorney General, Jay Holder, has refused to bring 3 members of the Black Panthers Gang to justice, this after the court had entered a judgment against them (April 20, 2009), by dismissing the charges.
These men were recorded on video intimidating voters with threats and racial slurs while blocking access to polling places wearing some quasi-military uniforms and carrying & brandishing weapons, on Election Day in 2008. Reports say that they gained access to the polling place using Democratic poll watcher credentials. The video shows them in clear violation of the Voter Rights Act of 1965 (using coercion, threats and intimidation).
Is this apparent disregard for the law the “real change” you campaigned on? It just seems to me that the president should be ensuring that everyone (black, white, Christian, Jew, Muslim, Democrat, Republican, etc.) should receive equal treatment under the law.
By protecting these criminals, you are displaying the exact behavior that you campaigned against and it encourages more of the same behavior. Moreover, I seem to remember the oath of office including something about defending the US Constitution. This incident does not go against that oath?
This, along with continued attempts to bankrupt this country by quadrupling deficit spending, destroying the automobile industry, the banking/investment/credit industry, health care, losing millions of jobs and the ability of Americans to better ourselves, I have to guess that there is a lot of buyer’s remorse going on in among some American voters. These pseudo-pardons will continue your sinking approval ratings.
Mr. President, do we still have a representative democracy in America, or are we being “ruled”, as the Black Panthers claim?
Thank you for your support

Guantánamo Bay Detention Camp is Not a Rallying Point to Recruit Terrorists
5/21/2009 9:04 PM
Dear Mr. President.
Today’s speech did not give me confidence in your ability to defend this nation. The whole Guantanamo Bay Detention Camp (GBDC) issue should have been just another minor campaign promise that was overlooked. Instead, it’s front page news for weeks on end and overshadowing real issues.
Guantanamo Bay Detention Camp is not a rallying point to recruit terrorists, as has been proffered. No, but successful attacks are their rallying points. Closing GBDC will serve no purpose other than to satisfy those who do not know better.
You should know better.
Also, while waterboarding is an extremely unpleasant experience it pails in comparison to having your head hacked head off, being killed or wounded by exploding roadside bombs, being a passenger in a plane flown into a building, blowing up business offices or strapping bombs to your children in the hopes that they will die along with someone you hate. Someone you hate for no good reason.
We cannot release the detainees at GBDC as they have insisted their intention to kill Americans should they be released. Released from GBDC, or any other country that should change their mind and take custody of any of them.
The only right answer to the future of the detainees at Guantanamo Bay Detention Camp is to declare them to be prisoners of war (PW). Declaring them to be PWs would be justified and would allow you to hold them until the war ends. No trials, no torture, just hold them. That way, they stay alive and live better than have ever known before. It’s very humane.
One good thing has come for your position on GBDC. The US Congress is united. It is a shame that they are united against you while your popularity drops.
Thank you for your support.
