Please don't misunderstand. I think that what you wrote is very good. It took a lot of your time and contains the truth. It is a very good piece. I can understand why you are upset, hell I am upset myself but I just don't want to get distracted by some load mouth punk with an ax to grind. As Democrats I think it is very important to stay focused, there is too much going on and we have an election on the horizon.

As American's we have a unique relationship with our presidents. We tend to overlook their shortcomings no matter how bad they are and will support them to the death, or at least the next election cycle. We don't like it when people bad mouth our president or otherwise show him any disrespect. When he is successful and does well we feel good, when he is sick or down we tend to feel poorly. It is easy to see why you and others here are put out. We are sick and tired of Reich wingers bad mouthing our people. It would be just as easy for them to keep their mouths shut, but they just can't seem to get it done.
