Vikings problem

After the Vikings first loss, I gave a few thoughts on what went wrong. Later, I realized the obvious problem, it's Bush's fault. Just for laughs, of course. I thought that the play of a football team would somehow be beyond even Bush's powerful reach.
The ability to bring every problem in the world to W's feet is becoming more and more bizarre. The term Bush Derangement Syndrome (BDS) is being bandied around on the right to try and describe what's going on. Overreaction? This letter was in the Strib today. I'll reprint the whole thing, because I don't think they archive these for long.

The curse of the Bush

Coincidence or curse? Vikings fans, you be the judge.

On Oct. 29, 2004, Minnesota Vikings had a 5-1 record. Head Coach Mike Tice was on top of the world, feeling confident, virile; no one could touch him.

That day in Minneapolis he introduced President Bush and presented him with a personalized Vikings jersey with the number 1 on the back.

Since then, the Vikings have gone 4-10.

Coincidence or curse? Vikings fans, you be the judge.

K. John Bradley, Minneapolis.

Look, I know that Clinton drove the right crazy, but we never, never, never blamed him for football loses. The Vikings problems start with a horrible coach. And Tice's problems are big enough to overshadow whatever else is wrong. Until he's gone, it's hard to tell what else needs to be done.
And if anyone reading this has BDS, get a grip, please.
