Where Was Mark Kirk?
Since 2001, when George Bush and Mark Kirk each took office in Washington, America has rung up the biggest deficits in its history, thanks in large part to the $520 billion spent in Iraq, while al Qaeda has rebuilt its operations, making the U.S. really no safer. To paraphrase Ronald Reagan: Are you better off than you were when Bush and Kirk took office?
Where was Mark Kirk when the U.S. spent more than $520 billion in Iraq, though President Bush declared “Mission Accomplished” on May 1, 2003?
Where was Mark Kirk when, in five years after May 1, 2003, the Bush Administration spent $100 billion on contractors who made huge profits with slipshod work and no real accountability?
Where was Mark Kirk when the Bush Administration failed to push Iraq to reinvest much of its record $70 billion 2007 oil revenue in rebuilding its own economy?
Where was Mark Kirk when George Bush spent more than $520 billion in Iraq while according to the Director of National Intelligence’s Annual Threat Assessment, al Qaeda has fully reconstituted its core operational capacity in the tribal region of Pakistan?
Where Was Mark Kirk?
Right by Bush’s side.
There’s a better tomorrow for America. It begins on November 4th.
