Dear President Bush,

I want to sincerely thank you for ceding your office in a peaceful manner. I'd like to think that perhaps the waning influence of Mr. Cheney. Mr. Rove, Mr. Rumsfeld, Mr. Addington and Mr. Feith made this all the more likely outcome.

I also want to express my opinion that the biggest mistake of your presidency was your utter ineptitude in uniting this great nation at a moment when even a mediocre leader would have been able to do so. Given how you ascended to the presidency, humility and bipartisanship would have served all of us better.

Thankfully, those days are behind us, and now I, like millions of other Americans, will roll up our sleeves and start to deal with the aftermath you have left us.
