Why is President Bush 'throwing' this election?

I'm starting to get irritated at President Bush for throwing this election to John Kerry. A year and a half ago this President had the highest approval ratings in history, and now we're looking at 48%/ 48% polls showing a neck and neck race. This shouldn't even be a contest between President Bush and Kerry, and it's starting to piss me off.
The public has on tape Senator Kerry switching positions day by day over the past year, shifting with the political winds. The guy obviously will say whatever he wants to gain political power, and yet the Bush campaign has given him a free pass on this and so much more. Kerry wants to live in the past, for America to remember a 35 year old war we are desperatly trying to put behind us. Kerry has a trial lawyer as his VP canidate for heavens sake! You know why they say "When the revolution comes, lawyers will be the first to go"? Because it's true! People don't trust lawyers, yet Edwards is coming on like the second coming. What gives?
For the past two weeks, Kerry finally gets a position on Iraq. It is "We should have given sanctions the time they needed to work". Now we see that he has even come down on the wrong side of this - sanctions were NOT working, but instead they were allowing Saddam to purchase nations on the UN security council! You know, those same nations that were pushing for sanctions on Iraq to be lifted? These guys were getting rich from Saddam, and we now have documentation that Saddam was buying these officials in France, Russia, China and elsewhere, and had promised them more riches once sanctions were lifted!
You would have waited Senator Kerry? For what? To Saddam to offer to buy you out? We were at a critical point with Iraq after TWELVE YEARS of sanctions. It was either time to withdraw or remove Saddam from power. The administration gave no less than 8 seperate reasons to invade Iraq, all valid. President Bush did the only thing he could have done after 09/11 - remove Saddam. To walk away from Iraq would have been an impeachable offense knowing what we know now.
And just what about WMD's? Kerry saw the same info President Bush did and voted to give the President authority to wage war on Iraq. Thank God there are no WMD's - it was never said that Saddam ABSOLUTELY had WMD's, but that the risk was high. Just because the media has chosen a single point of the 8 given, suddenly everyone thinks its the ONLY reason Iraq was invaded. What are you people, sheep? You listen to everything Dan Rather tells you to believe?
And here's the crux of the matter - Bush is smarter than this. He's giving Kerry a free walk on these issues at every oppurtunity. Is President Bush sick? Does he no longer want the burden in these trying times? I would understand if thats the case, but if Kerry wins this election Im going to lay blame on Bush. Its irresponsible to allow the fate of this country into the hands of an aristocrat that so blatently craves power. Kerry is a creampuff with no backbone what so ever, he is as transparent as Karl Marx's ghost and he loathes the middle class. Look at his Senate voting record! His tax increases are on a 3 to 1 ratio compared to his tax cuts!
I could go on and on and on, but really this is making me sick. Bush has been given the tools to show how ignorant Kerry's foriegn policy is tomorrow night in the debates. Im a simple guy with a simple business in the heart of Texas, and even I have figured out a clear cut arguement that shred Kerry's policies.
It's so easy... why won't our President hit the ball?
