We get attacked on his watch. He never gets the guy who did it. He says he doesnt really care about him, doesnt really think about him. He starts a war based on getting rid of WMDS. Turns out,there are no weapons of mass destruction. There also isn't a tie between this country and the group that attacked us. 1000+ soilders died. 100,000 Iraqi civilians died. Jobs were lost for the first time since the 1930s. He tried to force a constitutional amdendment to ban gay marriages, instead of leaving it up to the states as he said he would in 2000. He has done zero for health care, including to not let us get drugs for Canada "because he is so worried about our safety". He has done nothing for education. Yet most (as of now) Americans have still voted for him. I no longer feel that this country represents who I am. I am sad, angry, and dissapointed. I honestly don't get it. I love this country so much. I was born and raised here. But when I look at the other country that I have citizenship in (Germany), I realize that my views and opinions are more in sync with those of the European people and government. Think I'm a bad American because of that? I don't care. It's the way I feel in my heart. I don't think I'll be living in this country much longer. Whether Ian comes or not. My heart isn't here anymore.
