See, it was almost a rational, well thought out post. Until the commie bit. Can we have a political discussion without insults and wild exaggeration (from all sides)? Judging from this thread and the past, I don't think so.

Besides, your arguments against Kerry could also apply to McCain, who I hope will run again. And I do happen to agree with your initial premise, sans name calling.

I am the Doctor, and THIS... is my SPOON!
