I Could Not Have Said This Better Myself

OK, no one get all hyped up that I am doing two in one day. I am a little tired right now, but after reading this from Irish Pennants I felt the need to share it with all of our readers. This is a letter reprinted by James Taranto. The author's name is Brad Lehman, and the letter was sent to the Wilmington News Journal.

Because I am 17 years old, some people might say that I am not mature enough to understand many issues. However, let me just say that I get more laughs reading the opinion page than I ever have from the comics.
Delawareans seem to be fixated on bashing President Bush and proposing new conspiracy theories whenever they seem convenient.


President Bush did not cause Hurricane Katrina or the complications afterwards. New Orleans was built below sea level so they should have seen it coming and made preparations themselves.

If Dick Cheney shoots someone by accident on his own time, it is none of your business and neither he nor the president has any obligation to tell you about it.

Finally, it seems unreasonable to me that Bush was able to graduate from Yale University, be elected governor of Texas, and earn the respect and confidence of enough of his peers in the Republican Party to be nominated as their presidential candidate if he is indeed as dim-witted as you say.

I am willing to wager that the majority of Delawareans who get their information from this sorry excuse for a newspaper have barely enough brainpower to govern their own lives, let alone governing a nation of almost 300 million.

Let me just state for the record that age has nothing to do with being smart. This is evident from Marcie's brilliant ability to write how she does, with the passion that she possesses. However, when it comes to young Mr. Lehman, it is too bad that he is only seventeen. Lord knows that the northeastern portion of our country could use more common sense individuals like him in office. Mr. Lehman, if you read this, trust me when I tell you that at the earliest possible convenience you should run for office, regardless of the office.
