Get any replies?
It all sounds right to me. Obviously your liberal friends won't see it that way but you've got guts for trying.
Good Job!
Mind if I borrow it?
Not yet... my wife (also a Freeper) and I keep checking our e-mail over and over... my guess is that the girls are all out getting abortions and the guys are out drinking themselves into oblivion and having gay sex (well, one of them is admittedly gay, so that's not far off)....
Very good! I graduated HS 25 years ago and have the same set of friends that you addressed. I feel your pain.
Unfortunately, Liberals are so self-centerd, an dcould care less about patriotism or orther Americans, they can only see their own self interest and within their own bubble of anti-Americanism (ero: John Kerry).
I hope that your letter did some good, but I have little hope.
Thank you.
If you use it again, one slight contradiction - the "born alive infant protection act" refers to the victims of "ordinary" abortions who are born alive. No victim of a partial birth abortion is EVER born alive.
I think your response is awesome! Good for you. Its well thought out.
Go ahead and borrow it! I used to write for my college conservative newspaper, and I've written better, but if you like it, please use it! This was written in a few minutes while my 9 month old baby crawled back and forth over my legs trying to get to the laptop. Everytime she made it, I moved the laptop to the other side....
Please ping me with any replies you get if you do!
You did an awsome job on this!
check out my information on thotline dot com.
I had to answer issues like you did.
Too bad only your High School classmates will see this. It was great, should be a letter to every major newspaper!
Brilliant. Well thought out...well written.
Big Bump!
Very well reasoned and written. Kudos.
In case you are curious, here are the e-mails that led up to it. Each is from a different friend. Notice how they just assume we all must be pulling for Kerry...
EMAIL 1:
Since 1936, there has been a relationship between the outcome of the
Presidential election and the outcome of the last Washington Redskins home
game prior to the election. When the Skins win, so does the incumbent.
But, when the Skins falter, the challenger wins.
Today, the Skins played at home and LOST to Green Bay 28 - 14. Let's see
what this means for Tuesday . . .
EMAIL 2:
Funny, I read your e-mail RIGHT after I checked the score on
washingtonpost.com. I wouldn't trust anything as sacred this year,
though...
Tonight for Halloween I am dressing up as President Bush. I have a
full-head mask, a flannel shirt and jeans, and a box bulging from inside my
shirt, between my shoulder blades. I'm also wearing a rainbow-colored Kerry
for President button. :)
Boo!
EMAIL 3:
i know we're all busy, but i wanted to really
encourage you to consider making at least 5 phone
calls today for john kerry.
http://calls.johnkerry.com/eblocks/index.mhtml
it's really stress free, as you are calling committed
democrats, and getting these people to attend get out
the vote efforts is going to make the difference in
this campaign. plus, it's sunday, so you can call for
free on your cell phones!! it's great to feel like we
can make a difference even if we're not in swing
states. PLEASE consider trying this today!!
EMAIL 4:
I've been making calls almost every night! I might even host or go to a phone party on Tuesday. It's so crazy in DC right now, tensions are so high, you can just feel it in the air. I'm just praying it all turns out ok.
