A letter to the editor reportedly printed in a newspaper, somewhere, today:
Accept election resultsLet me just conclude by saying the writer is absolutely correct. We should treat George Bush exactly as they treated Bill Clinton.
Ever since we learned that President Bush had won
reelection, a flow of letters and editorials has
talked about how the voters who supported John Kerry
cannot fathom living under a second Bush
administration.
It is time for all Americans to remember that the
reason our government has survived for so long is that
we vote for the leaders we prefer and then, win or
lose, we stand behind those leaders whom the majority
of Americans have chosen. That is what has made
America strong over the past centuries.
How do the Kerry supporters think we conservatives
felt during eight years of President Bill Clinton? We
did not gnash our teeth, cry in anguish and scream
about how we must leave the country. We accepted the
will of the majority and moved on, as Americans,
dedicated to making life and government better.
It is time for everyone to grow up and pull together.
