DEMOCRATS - Peace, not War.

That is the wife of the man who gave us the mess in Iraq, a wrecked economy, and a divided nation.

Next to her is a U.S. Senator who brought dirty campaigning to Ohio to a fevered pitch in 1992 when he smeared a great American - John Glenn. He does not deserve to hold this Senate seat that Glenn once held, but U.S. Congressman Sherrod Brown does!

Next to him is the man who has helped to create loss of jobs for the 3rd Congressional District. A man who has spoken out time and time again that peace cannot be achieved in Iraq without the loss of too many American lives. A man who tries to block the advancement of science and improvements in medical care by blocking more funding of Stem Cells.

THOSE two men are the enemy....not us. We are Americans first and we should not be divided in our mutual effort to kick these bums out of office. They would appreciate it no better than for us to turn in and fight amongst ourselves.

Words like troll, Rovian, smear, attack, underperformed, etc. These all have been bantied about by all sides, me included. We all have taken personal attack instead of focusing on what matters, throwing the bums above and their cohorts out of office.

SO....Jerid, Staff, SusanD, ModernEsquire, etc., I apologize. I lay down my gauntlet and refuse to attack you any further. Lets discuss what should be discussed. Lets let Jane Mitakides, Dick Chema, Roosevelt Chapman, and Charlie Sanders set the beat. Lets discuss issues from this moment out. By issues, lets deflect character comparisons of any qualified Democrat and all four have earned the right to that distinction.

Our anger should be directed at the two village idiots above and these three :
