email from Senator Kennedy re dishonorable dick and action request.
Dear Lonestarnot: (I changed the name)

There are 146,587 terrorist supporters living in the state
of Connecticut according to Vice President Dick Cheney --
the number of Ned Lamont voters.

He claims they're encouraging "the Al Qaida" types who want
to "break the will of the American people in terms of our
ability to stay in the fight and complete the task" in Iraq.

Cheney's gone too far. His disgraceful declaration of war on
Ned Lamont supporters is an attack not just on Democrats,
but on democracy itself.

We can't stand by while Republicans like Cheney slander the
people of Connecticut and millions of other Americans
nationwide who are showing up at the polls to reject the
failed record of the Bush Administration.

I thought you might like the opportunity to send your own
message to the Vice President. You can send it here:

Cheney wants people to believe that anyone who questions the
Bush Administration's misguided policies is in cahoots with
the terrorists.

But the facts are clear.

The Administration's extremist agenda has drained our
resources and stretched our troops. This made the war on
terrorism hard to win and made America more hated in the
world.

The American people want more than vicious fear-mongering
from our leaders. They want realistic policies,
accountability for failures, and -- most of all -- a new
direction for America.

It's time for Dick Cheney to admit he went too far. Demand
that the vice president apologize for his offensive remarks:

Let's recognize a few truths: Lamont voters did not allow
Osama bin Laden to escape in the mountains of Afghanistan.

Lamont voters did not mislead the American people into war
with Iraq.

Lamont voters did not refuse to admit their mistakes. They
did not vow to "stay the course" while more and more
Americans die and Iraq descends into civil war.

Dick Cheney and Republicans of his ilk disrespect the very
nature of our democracy when the results are inconvenient
for them. But despite this unprecedented grab for executive
power, they don't have the ability to decide elections.

The vote in Connecticut proves that free and open elections
still exist -- and millions of Democrats around the country
are ready to go to the ballot box in the coming months and
put America back on track.

Thank you for you support.

Sincerely,

Senator Edward M. Kennedy

2. This is what I want to send does it look ok?
Mr. Cheney,

I won't call you vice president, because your comments show that you don't represent or respect the whole of the US but the small 33 % for Bush and the 18% that support you, and I think you need to apologize to every person that voted for Ned Lamont. The people of CT have chose the man they want to represent them, oh thats right you only believe that democracy should be in Iraq, but not here in the USA.
