dear mr. president

Most of the discussion concerned Pink's statement that the song was intended for United States President George W. Bush The song's format is a series of questions for the President, specifically pertaining to how he really feels about controversial issues such as war ("Let me tell you about hard work/Rebuilding your house after the bombs took them away"), homosexuality ("What kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay?") --this can also be viewed as Vice President Dick Cheney not accepting gay rights when his own daughter is a lesbian,-- The home("What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street") reproductive rights for women ("What kind of father would take his own daughter's rights away?") and drug abuse ("You've come a long way from whiskey and cocaine"), and asks "when you look in the mirror are you proud?", and the war in Iraq ("How do you feel when a mother has no chance to say good-bye?").
