Nielson letter: Bush/Cheney wars

A little “history” for those who would blame this administration for the mess we are in today.

This administration did not drop bombs on an innocent country killing thousands of their citizens.

This administration’s troops did not create a picture, taken by our own troops, of their torturing Iraqi prisoners.

This administration’s news media did not tell the world that we had attacked an innocent country and that we were holding innocent prisoners in GITMO.

This administration’s vice president did not go on TV and condone our use of “waterboarding” prisoners.

All these do not’s have given terrorist groups a post board for recruiting more terrorists, and it’s all been created by the Bush/Cheney wars.
