Something for the conservatives, but I still thought it was kind of interesting...
Dear Mr Bush.
I am a Senior Citizen.
During the previous successive administrations had an extremely good, well-paying job. I took numerous vacations and had several holiday homes. Moreover when Reagan and your father were in power I was supported financially in my business ventures and knew I could count in good governance from Washington. Under Clinton I was politely left alone but was still permitted to prosper under my own steam.
But since you took office Mr Bush, I have watched my entire life change for the worse. I lost my job. I lost my homes. I lost my health insurance. As a matter of fact, I lost virtually everything and became homeless. I lost both my sons in the Iraq War.
Adding insult to injury, when the authorities found me living like an
animal, instead of helping me, they arrested me. Not a speck of kindness for a poor old man.
Is this the new world order your father promised? I sweated and slaved my life away for America's interests and while I too benefitted, I was very disappointed to find that America no longer cares for my contributions. For a man who reputedly places such a high emphasis on personal loyalty, you have shown remarkably little to a lonely old man who was once a friend of the family.
Therefore I withdraw my support for your administration in protest against the way you have turned your back on me. I just thought you and your cabinet would like to know how one senior citizen views the Bush Administration.
Thank you for taking the time to read my letter.
Sincerely,
Saddam Hussein
