To several hundred friends: John Kerry: The Dean Sign on My office door .
Just sent to several hundred friends with shared interests:

John Kerry: The Dean Sign on my office door . . . .

Stays, and I'll be removing myself from Kerry e-lists.

I am very tired of people thinking I am some sort of spoiled child who cannot tolerate, nor understand anything other than the perfect candidate. I'm a grown up. All of us were lied to about this war. I am a rational person I tested the war idea from the first that I heard of it, even though my own personal immediate opinions the minute I picked up the first war "Suggestion"/Lies were that George had just S __ T!, or vomited, (literally) in the nest. I analyzed what was being said nonetheless. Much of what I have understood about people lying, and America being suckered by some people in Iraq, and have said so to my elected representatives' staff people, has come almost exactly true. I have never been for this war, but I had to understand those who are/were, so I thought through the reasons to support it. This is what a rational person DOES, then she makes her decisions, I am disappointed John Kerry doesn’t know that we understand this about ourselves and others . . . It’s called being rational.

Like a Fool: I also EXPECTED us to find SOME!!! Weapons. I really did!

No Weapons have been FOUND, or at least not much!

And we can't find anyone, OBL, Saddam, his first in commands . . . ! Afghanistan totters on the brink, not to mention Pakistan.

More and More and More Money! LOTS AND LOTS OF IT! - For a LONG Time . . . MORTGAGING our Childrens' Lives!!!

I am ashamed of John Kerry for treating us like we stupid little children have not looked at John Dean WARTS AND ALL, John! we know what we are doing.

CHRIST! (. . . and this is a Prayer!) I'm sick and tired of being treated like a stupid child who cannot rationally respond to complexity!!!!

Kerry just lost me. We'll have to take OUR own Responsibilities for the Environment with the Greens perhaps, because I don't see a champion in John Kerry anymore. I used to say he had class . . . I am very disappointed that he knows so little about me and many other grown ups who will put Howard Dean in the nominations at the Democratic Convention.

Sorry about flaming like this, but I am Very, very tired of being treated like some kind of dumb, child who can't understand how Howard Dean, just like the rest of us, had to rationally process the "SUGGESTIONS!!!" - Lies - of the war making machine in this administration. Cheney was in complete control of Rove. I've been against this war from the first instant it was a remote possibility that somebody dreamed up to control the Pentagon or some political group or person, and make money for someone, with the support probably all of those voting Pentagon Contractors out there who make their livings on wars. Wars R US. And other growing Government jobs. The ONLY jobs there are!

Not MY president!

6. OOOOpps - Howard, Of course.
Sorry, I'm getting old, and going too fast.

My apologies, all.

My point stands.

I'm tired of being talked down to by people who want to tell us what to think!

4. I don't really understand what you said
But you said it with such passion! That is all that counts.

Also, please don't jump on the Dean bandwagon right-a-way. General Clark has the best chance head to head against Bush.

7. I like Clark fine.
And I'm working for Howard Dean.

I look forward to seeing some of the others around took, like Kucinich, and Edwards. And Thank Goodness for C.M. Braun, I have praised the whole team here. Kerry just disappointed me big this morning!

11. I apologize
I was just irritated because I'm a big Kerry fan, and I took exception to the post. But please don't take it personally.

13. Hey, what's with the dollar signs?
I saw them in your other "bye bye" post. Typo or subliminal message?

Relax, everybody gets flamed. If it bothers you, grow a thicker skin. I've been flamed or attacked more times than I can count. So what? We all have common goals.
