I'm getting frustrated. It's like waiting for an orgasm that never comes and I feel like I can't say anything about it. Like I have to fake it.

Sorry for the crude analogy, but it fits.

1. Hmmm. Let me give this a try...
"Mr. or Mrs. X, please be the last to die in Iraq."

Enough of them will comply too, because there are enough people who were conditioned throughout life to obey authority figures no matter what.

3. I want somebody to say something! Do something. I want Kerry to say
something that will make it all better, I guess. I don't know. I want him to say he'll get us out of Iraq, but, I know we can't just leave. This, "I'm going to get other countries to send their citizens to die and open their coffers to help us out in Iraq," stuff isn't playing well with me and I'm a Kerry supporter. For real. Maybe, he could say stuff like, I'm going to make sure Iraqis rebuild Iraq and get paid for it, not foreign gold-diggers, and this will help quell the insurgency. I don't know. Maybe, I'm just naive.

Why, why, why did we get in this mess? I'm really afraid, actually. I'm afraid.

5. Ok Kerry's plan is to quikly rebuild relationships with allies(other
countries) these are many. They will then get involved and as they do we will be able to pull out but not all at once. I hear you but there is not magic to make it all go away. Sorry. You know why we are in this mess, I hope we are never so lax as to let this happen again. We need to fight every 4 years like we are now. I usually dismiss people on her who whine but I don't think you are. I think you are very frustrated as we all are. I can only tell you I feel it in my very soul that Kerry/Edwards are in. Kerry really does need to be in the WH before he can say exactly what will be possible. He needs most of the house and senate on his side. Take a deep breath and pray. And all the other thing we need to do, which you probably are doing will work. I know of at least 6 republicans voting Kerry and that is not new sign ups.

6. Like this:
Mr. Rumsfeld....The Iraqi people would like to thank you personally for their liberation.

Your flight leaves in an hour.
