I might not be fond of them or voted for them, but they deserve some dignity. I think most of us learnedabout helping others in kindergarten... sitting back and being carefree is rather cruel. So much for the "compassionate, caring, accepting liberals"...

Supposing what Kerry would have screwed up is vastly different than seeing what Bush actually screwed up. The man lost a city on his watch. Am I supposed to sit here and say, 'Well, good thing Kerry's not in. He would have lost more than just one.' Huh?
I sit back and watch because that's all anyone can do. The soldiers who died in this war for no reason deserve my respect, Bush does not. The memories of innocent Iraqi citizens bombed in the middle of the night by us deserve to be thought on with dignity, not Bush.
Shooting an unarmed Iraqi family (including 3 children) is cruel. Watching an out of touch leader implode because of his own stupidity is not.
I can show you tons of pictures of smiling people, it doesn't mean a damn thing.
