41. I think this one got to me because of Chicago.
Those of us waiting at the O'Hare Hilton were hearing the weather in Minneapolis was keeping his plane on the ground, but when Dennis called to deliver his speech via speaker-phone he mentioned heavy air traffic over O'Hare. Either way, I was concerned about him making it to St. Louis and actually getting some sleep Tuesday night!

The comment about sleeping in his suit...I just thought, "Yeah, and so what if he did?! That just tells me he cares more about us than his own needs and wants!". That's not to say I don't want him to take care of himself, but remarks like that are so sickeningly dismissive of the man's character that it makes me want to rip my hair out!

The war business...I guess it's pretty obvious I'm in a white hot rage over Iraq. We committed a crime in going in there and people want to "persevere" in it~~in other words exacerbate the crime with more crimes! And then just for kicks let's dump the cost onto the backs of our OWN grandchildren!AAARGH!:argh:

I'm losing some of my diplomacy I think. I've just had enough of seeing Dennis belittled and kicked around. Sooo these days I'm pulling out a little more of my sharper edges when I'm confronted with abject stupidity about him and total ignorance about his policies. Speaking of his policies, there was a great article posted on the Kucinich4President yahoo group this morning-

I thought I'd share this with everyone because he really gets into his view of "sustainability" in this one. I loved it!
