Letter: We should all back president in time of war

Tuesday, March 11, 2003 | 8:56 a.m.

In response to the March 4 letter from Bob Hanshew headlined, "Oh for a new president in '04," in which he wrote, "The only thing that can save the world from President Bush is for him to see 'Welcome to Washington, D.C.,' in his rear view mirror in '04":

Obviously, Hanshew didn't read the article on the previous page, "Six of 10 people back president's Iraq policy." Nearly six of every 10 people support President Bush's plan to disarm Iraq, by force if needed, according to an ABC News-Washington Post poll. Hanshew, where is your patriotism? This is not the time to not support our elected president while thousands of troops are being sent off to the Middle East! Especially since our country is on the verge of war, every U.S. citizen, whether Democrat or Republican, should stand behind our president.

I wonder what a Democratic president would be doing if faced with all of the new challenges that President Bush has faced after 9-11. Woe is us if our president in '04 is a Democrat.
