Everyday we read news stories about bad things
the Bush Administration has done or is doing. So I decided to
write a story about the good they have done for
myself and countless other patriotic Americans. Like most American's,
I never had a news website or thought much about
what was going on in our Government. I thought that the people
who were elected officials like Congressmen,
Our Representatives and most of all, the office of President, would only
be held by people who cared greatly for the future
of America.
Average everyday people like you and me, don't
understand politics the way those people do, and why should we try ?
After all, you don't learn how to kill and cut
up a cow to get a good steak, you leave that to the butcher... Right ?
And you don't have time to learn how to fix your
car, but that's okay... That is why we have mechanics. Most of you
use paper, but you wouldn't have any idea how
to make paper. That's okay, because there are paper mill workers
learning how to make paper so you don't have
too. Most of us are good at one or two things we could get paid for,
but we don't often stop to think about what life
is like for farmers, mechanics, carpenters, phone workers, cable TV
workers, power workers, bridge builders, mill
workers etc... Unless you have done their jobs. Most of you think that
you couldn't live without these workers and the
products that they build and maintain, but little time is spent thinking
about how they make it happen.
That said... For a Democratic Government to work
the way it's suppose to, every citizen from that country must learn
about and try to be active in your Government.
If you don't take the time to become active in learning about your
government, elected officials and the laws in
your country, the days could be numbered for your country's Democracy.
Living in America which is the richest, strongest,
Democracy in the world, I never saw a need for the average American
to be politically active. I mean, I cut
wood, do carpentry, build websites, run a vending business, fix cars, grow
food,
do electrical wiring, plumbing, landscaping etc...
Why should I care what the politicians are doing ?
The Bush Administration, That's Why !
So I feel I owe a great deal of thanks to The
Bush Administration for helping me to be a better American !
Their corrupt, shady, ruthless, underhanded,
spineless, terroristic, evil, incompetent, actions... Made me realize
that
American politics can't be left just in the hands
of the politicians, if Americans want their Democracy to survive.
