Bush supporter has head in sand

The writer of the Jan. 8 letter, “Bush and Ford in similar spots,” who said that President Bush was doing a fine job, must have his head in the sand. The No. 1 issue in the country is the Iraq war. Bush cannot explain what we are fighting for and what success means. This administration also has classified more information as secret than any previous administration. How about our civil rights? Reading our first-class mail, listening to our phone conversations. A lack of funds for our cities is causing police budgets to be cut; schools need repairs, equipment and new faculties. Global warming is of no concern to Bush; wages are low; corruption is high. Shall I go on, or should we just cover up in the sand completely?
