the chat after the article is worth reading.

The article is from this morning, but on the radio this evening they were still trying to get rid of tickets.

1. I disagree

The chat is not worht rerading...it is a puke festival!! I really cannot believe the amount of low IQ people we have in this nation...it boggles the mind....It is really frustrating that people who are so inferior to me would actually have a vote equal to mine.

2. I guess I should have said

"it's an eye opening read." I need to confess that I hadn't actually read the chat when I posted and the chat after articles is usually a little more balanced with Kerry supporters. But if you're interested, please, please, get an id and start posting.

I am pleased the tickets haven't sold out yet, and a bit amazed. The area tilts republican. Patty Wetterling needs an Edwards or Kerry visit. We've had both Bush's (G and L). We did have Max Cleland which was a wonderful day, but Patty needs some national support.

3. The name of the venue is certainly appropriate.

Dick Putz Field? If anyone is a Dick AND a Putz it's Dubya. ;)

No offense intended to Dick Putz himself, whoever he is.

5. Dick Putz

was a local person who devoted a great deal of time to amateur baseball. His son used to be an umpire at softball games I played.

4. " * " may sight-see at ROCORI

I'm a teacher at ROCORI High School and there are rumors flying that "our great leader" may come out to take a photo-op at our memorial. I hope it is a rumor only because:1) we have had enough press lately, 2) our building is full of NEA "terrorists" according to Rod Paige.

6. My sympathy

I know you must be sick of news trucks and helicopters.

7. Sick.

Visiting a memorial as President is one thing. But this is a campaign event; it's sickening that he would use something like that for his re-election campaign.
