[Vision2020] Oh, how money talks!

[Ralph Nielsen]

I found this letter in today's (Nov. 26) Yakima Herald.

Oh, how money talks

To the editor -- I can't be the only person amazed at the photograph  
of a smiling President Bush standing in front of the larger-than-life  
statue of North Vietnamese leader Ho Chi Minh at the presidential  
palace in Hanoi (Page 3A, Nov. 18).

It's amazing what 20 years and the desires of American business  
interests can do!

That picture did more to explain our country's core principles and  
the loyalties of our leaders than all the editorials I have read in  
the past year combined.

I wonder how many years will pass before another American president  
will stand before a bust of Osama bin Laden somewhere in the Middle  
East, in search of markets for American goods.
