Kerry is taking heat from other senators?
Edited on Tue Jan-31-06 09:50 AM by Botany
tom, of course i remember you. those were the best of times and the worst of times, as has been said. it's nice to hear from you, and i'm glad that you appreciate jk's efforts to block alito. he's taking a lot of heat for it. i bet not too many senators want to talk to him right now. such is life. i'm glad he did it.


that is an e mail I got from a friend who works on Kerry's staff, who I got to know during the
04 election in Ohio. Please send a thank you card to Kerry @

Washington D.C.
304 Russell Bldg.
Third Floor
Washington D.C. 20510

If you can include a check to the U.S.O.
it is his favorite charity.

Remember the pictures of Boxer w/ the roses? Kerry needs some cards and checks now.

3. Thanks! I will.
And thanks for posting this. Kerry and Kennedy made a lot of Senators take a stand. I can see where a lot of Sens would not like this and they are probably not at the top of the Christmas card list right now. But I appreciate what they did and will go through the Kerry Senate web site to make a donation in their honor to the USO.

Hey, you stand up and you get to be the target. What's the alternative, never stand up?

4. Doesn't surprise me at all, the heat is probably coming from the
19 cowards that have been exposed. Oh, and Biden, because, well just because he could have but didn't filibuster.

6. i am so f*in tired of the kerry bashing bullshit. one man. just a
Edited on Tue Jan-31-06 09:56 AM by seabeyond
person. and from job performance stand point, (not a friend, pal hero on a white horse) but as an employee,..... he has kicked ass. the bashing is ridiculous, wrong, absurd. where did we decide we were suppose to get perfection. because the repugs said so. they find something to bash each and every person..... we will present (as us dems will do too). so we will not find a single perfect candidate to run

the attacks on kerry are so absurd, we know they are (skiing in hte alps, to filibuster) yet we still expect ourselves, and demand of others, to live in these blatant lies. i just do not get it. and we are so consistant.

time and again, kerry has shown how to stand up for another. and time and time again, we fail to give the same to kerry. a few of our representitives are getting the message, as we saw from boxer in jan 6th (kerry said go for it, i cant be a part, you are doing for me, yours to do).......... and beyond. a total learning, though not perfect, is there for us to see if we chose

and so much more

on edit forgot to add the obvious: to even qualify what kerry did with a .... i dont care why he did it..... is feeding the bullshit

10. If he becomes president, there's a lot of Senators he's going to have
to stand up to. Might as well start practicing now.

12. Although Thanks is in order, our backlash at the traitors
should show them they have no right to criticize Kerry, I almost think it is equally important for us to call the people who voted against us in criticism and tell them they should get their hands off Kerry and we WILL put up opponents in the primary
