Mugsy once again thank you and thanks for coming back to PT! You expressed how I feel much better than I could. I agree with everything that you said. Should Howard Dean have been the Democratic nominee then I think a lot more Dems would have been voting FOR Dean instead of against Bush. Kerry is a wooden puppet. Good description and someone is pulling his strings. Hmm.... I don't like the war. Don't get me wrong. There are issues other than the war at stake in this country, though, and a lot of my concerns lie there as well. I wish we weren't involved in a war. I wish there weren't people in this world who hated us. Believe it or not, I am a registered Democrat. I was one of the few votes for George McGovern way back when. How's that for radical?? Remember Viet Nam? Come home Amerca! My husband was in the Air Force during Viet Nam. I just pray for peace and for God's will in this election. I can do no more.
