Monarchies, without civil rights, are tasteful. Democracies are sloppy.
It is perfectly reasonable for President Bush to highlight how he reacted to 9-11, a defining moment in American history, and something still unresolved.
It is also reasonable for the American people to withdraw their arbitrary support for the President, and begin to view him critically.
Any American who refrains from taking a critical look at the President, during the election season, in my opinion, is a bad American.
Also, in my opinion, any American, who uses emotional impact, and subjective standards of taste, to admonish those who seek to discuss an issue as important as 9-11, is a bad American.
People who are offended by the 2004 method of selling political ideas, via mass media, simply need to get over it. Rest assured that the Kerry camp will use similar methods against President Bush, as is the Kerry campaign's constititional right.
