<dd>>>Isn't it funny when a Rep. wins, everyone else says they
cheated? If you<br>
<dd>want to find out who is a Kerry voter, just go stand on a corner with
a Bush<br>
<dd>sign and count how many people flip you off. It adds up
quick...oh...and it<br>
<dd>doesn't matter if you bring your children with you...they'll still
flip you<br>
<dd>off..."daddy, why did he do that?"...<br><br>
<dd>I seem to remember attending a Clinton rally at the University of
Texas in<br>
<dd>Austin (1992). Mind you, this was CLINTON's rally. But of course the
young<br>
<dd>Republicans were there in force. I was there with my young children,
trying<br>
<dd>to show them something of the democratic process. The Republicans
were<br>
<dd>waving around a HUUUUUUUGE sign that blocked our view of the podium.
OK,<br>
<dd>well at least we could listen, or so we thought. But it was
really<br>
<dd>difficult, with the Republicans constantly yelling! obscene slurs
about the<br>
<dd>president, Hillary, and even Chelsea. So much for "family"
values, eh? At<br>
<dd>one point, the Republican mob started shoving us around, and we were
holding<br>
<dd>our children, trying to keep them from getting trampled. One
Republican,<br>
<dd>about age 30, started screaming at me to get my "fucking
kid" out of his<br>
<dd>face, and he started boasting about his income. He told me, angrily,
that<br>
<dd>his watch cost more than (he presumed) I earned in a year. He did all
this,<br>
<dd>of course, as he was shoving us (all four of us) around.<br><br>
<dd>Care to guess how confused and frightened our 2 and 4 year old
children<br>
<dd>were?<br><br>
<dd>There's some pretty bad behavior on both sides, Matthew! I don't
blame it<br>
<dd>on the parties, but the people.<br><br>
<dd>And at no time do I relenquish the right to cry "foul" when
the election is<br>
<dd>rigged. That's not being uncivil, and it's not being a bad sport.
We<br>
<dd>should ALL want fair elections, right? When we hold out ourselves to
the<br>
<dd>rest of t! he world as the very model of democracy, we should try to
be at<br>
<dd>least *somewhat* democratic. I'm embarrassed as an American that
our<br>
<dd>election process is such a joke.<br><br>
<dd>Peace,<br>
<dd>Sarah<br><br>
