Dear Mr. President,

There has been an awful lot of uproar lately about you wanting to defund Planned Parenthood. The talk is that Federal money should not go toward abortions, and on that Sir, you are absolutely correct. That's why no Federal funding goes toward abortion services at Planned Parenthood. Now, after that, they provide a lot of really useful and necessary care. You see, Mr. President, we women take a lot of specialized care to remain the ravishing creatures you see before you. Some of us, though, can't afford it all. And it's not our fault, Sir. We didn't ask to be born with uteruses, but since we have them, we have to ensure their health.

I'm not sure if you know this or not because I'm not sure you've every had occasion to visit a Planned Parenthood clinic, but they also provide pap smears, disease screenings, STD treatment, birth control, and more things that I'm sure I'm forgetting. Without their services, I'm afraid the country will have a much larger bill in the future. See, without the pap smears, you're looking at more acute illnesses that will have to be treated through the health care system. Without the birth control, more people who cannot afford more babies will get pregnant, creating more babies and more of a strain on government assistance programs. I'm sure you don't want that, Mr. President. Why would you? At least those people will still be covered under the Affordable Care Act, so it could be worse.

Dear Mr. President, On this Earth Day, it's nice to celebrate the Earth and remind ourselves that it's the only one we've got. It's a chance to think about how we can all make a small difference that will add up to big results later. That's why I was so glad that you responded in such a way to the March for Science. Thank you for indicating the turn around your administration will be making to protect endangered species and further the efforts of those organizations dedicated to preserving the Earth. After all, we're not the only ones using the planet. We've got to think of everyone. I'm so proud of you, Sir. It takes a big man to make such a public change. I eagerly await the new policies.

Dear Mr. President, In an interview, you had some questions about the Civil War. Namely, why it happened and couldn't be worked out. Well Sir, let me tell you. Half of our country believed that owning a person as property was wrong. The other half were those that owned the slaves. At the heart of the matter was the way people viewed blacks. To the Southern American, a black person was not a person at all. I'm not even sure if they were considered to be as high as livestock, but they were definitely treated like manure. All because of an uncontrollable factor that allowed them to survive in such sunny climates. By that, I mean the color of their skin. One side thought people were nothing more than objects to beat and work to death, and the other side respected the sanctity of life. Those were some very deeply held beliefs Sir, and it is always difficult to change a fundamental opinion. As for Andrew Jackson being upset about the Civil War, he was dead by then. For 1...

Dear Mr. President, A disturbing report was brought to my attention today. You have allowed logging in National Parks. Is that true? That can't be true, Sir. Logging would destroy our National Parks. The effect would be terrible, both for the environment and for our reputation. People don't say America the Beautiful because of man-made structures. They say it because our country—YOUR country—is inherently beautiful. It's natural structures are breathtaking. Perhaps if you considered them the Trump Tower of parks. It would be like allowing gold minders into your homes. I've seen pictures. They would strip your home of it's very essence. The same is true of logging in the National Parks. Please don't let us become America the Deforested.
