I would like to say a big THANK YOU to President Clinton for saying what I have been thinking and saying for at least two years.
During an interview on the Today Show on NBC this morning President Clinton was asked how he would deal with paying for the rebuilding on the gulf coast. President Clinton said he would start by repealing tax cuts for the wealthiest in our country. He said that we cannot go on borrowing from China, Saudi Arabia, Japan and others so we can afford our own self indulgences. He also said while our young people give their lives in Iraq and while people suffer on the gulf coast the people of this country have not been asked by their leader to make any sacrifices. (not exact quotes)
A true leader would unite the country and ask for sacrifices from the people during a time of war and national crisis. "W" has done the exact opposite... he has divided and polarized us like no other time in history and he has offered self indulgent tax cuts to the wealthiest among us.
We need a real leader now like never before.
God help us!
