He is nothing, absolutely NOTHING -- yet we are treating him like royalty, and my family was treated like criminals when we were anywhere near him. hmmm. you found the nicest words ... If this is what we have to look forward to under a Kerry/Edwards presidency, I fear the worst is yet to come. what happens with the current administration? what have you wished? a TFR for Edwards? in 'days like these' this was the best that could happen to you as a pilot. As we climbed out I laughingly told my kids that this was "your tax-dollars at work." I then closed my eyes and wished fervently that 9/11 had never happened...
