I just sent this to the editor of the opinion section of our local newspaper. I have no idea if it will get published at this point. Any suggestions on this article, or on writing for publication in general? Well, here it is: ********************************************* It is difficult express how wonderful the Democratic National Convention has been. Listening to so many politicians with a brain and a vocabulary beyond the third grade has been breath taking. It is as though the noisy children who were obnoxiously dancing in front of the TV have at last gone to bed so the adults can have finally have a conversation.
You see, the adults will be stuck with cleaning up the colossal mess in America, the world, and particularly in Iraq which was created by these children. It is clear that international support will be necessary, and we need a leader who has not burned all those bridges. No more drunken cowboy style politicians.
I am tired to the point of being livid with those nonsensical, emoting children belching their pseudo-religious-patriotic-morality into the media. Their arguments against the Democratic leadership are so flimsy that they cannot argue on that basis; they must resort to accusation, deception, and slander instead of building a rational case outlying their vision for the future of America.
Hearing the simple truth stated so clearly at the Democratic Convention has been more than refreshing, it has been convicting.
