1. I thought it was good.

There is a heated discussion on this in GD2004. I am proud Dean wrote this.

5. I miss that little ball of fire more then I can say..

Im a big ole cry baby mo, but honestly, that man could move me to tears when he spoke. Not many folks can do that. I love it when Randi plays his scream on her show.

6. Me too.

I did :cry: when he lost the primaries.

I am so glad he's back. He's in Portland today with
Kerry, and I'm going to go and look for an audio feed.

:party:

4. this is a great line

While it is true that the Bible (largely the Old Testament) condemns homosexuality in a few places, it equally condemns eating shellfish. Jesus never mentions homosexuality.

I've long pointed out the bold text to my fellow Christians (all of whom hate the idea of gays being together), and always got some backwards reply of "well God talked about Gays in Leviticus, and Jesus is God, so there."

8. Damn I miss hearing that man

The prospect of his becoming the next president gave me real hope. With Kerry, I'm ABB.
