Bill Sykes' Newsletter from America.
(May 2002)
An ex-Brit gives his views-(without fear
or favor)---of the American Scene
A one time President.
Mr.
Bush, in his two years in office has demonstrated his ability
to practically destroy the American economy, (with a little
help from Mr. Greenspan and other advisors, and of course
we must not forget that Osama Bin Laden also had a large
hand in this), has reduced American prestige in the world
foreign policy arena to a point of ridicule, brought about
a degree of Middle Eastern conflict by his, (and the American
people's), continued support of Israel, and issued threats
to sovereign nations throughout the World, to the point
that America and Americans are less popular outside these
shores, than ever before.
So the question arises, "Do we have a one time President"???
Will world history prove that this President is one of
the less intelligent, least knowledgeable of economic and
foreign policy management, (amongst his other lesser attributes),
of all the American Presidents who have proceeded him???
Perhaps more educated historians amongst us can defend,
refute, deny, or confirm these observations. !!!
