63. Paid?!?!? I wish! This Fence issue reveals the truth about Dean but you
can't accept it or admit that supporting Dean now requires some heavy re-consideration. The real Peace candidate is obviously now Kerry while Dean is cozying up to Sharon and AIPAC. By the way, the Fence construction has now been halted I think--I heard it on the news.

The question is will Dean support it even if Sharon himself halted it for peace. As Bush said (to the left of Dean on this issue) to Sharon: You can't Fence out terrorists, you have to rout them out. Kerry would say you have to make a general peace in the end--and without a Fence!

We're actually all lucky Dean revealed his foreign policy weakness so early. Learning curves in foreign policy this time around--after Bush, 9-11, Afghanistan and Iraq--is simply going to not go over in the usual "Let's-Elect-A-Governor-With-No-Foreign-Policy-Experience". It's going to be very different in '04 from other elections.

If Dean wins the nomination, however, I will back him to the hilt and hope against hope that he can beat Bush and his half a billion dollars in hard and soft money until Dean finally loses in an electoral disaster--which of course would be the end of democracy as we can't even imagine what Bush would do in his secod term.

That's the whole point here people. Kerry is the best chance to ignite the base and win the middle in the general AND WE CAN'T TAKE THE CHANCE THAT DEAN WOULD LOSE. Dean supporters are basically letting their idealistic hearts take a gamble WITH THE WHOLE FUTURE OF THE WORLD AND HUMANITY ITSELF.

THE FENCE PROVES THAT DEAN IS NOT EVEN FOR REAL. IF YOU MUST BE TOTALLY IDEALISTIC AT LEAST SUPPORT KUCINICH. BUT IF YOU REALLY WANT TO BEAT BUSH, RECONSIDER KERRY AND READ EVERYTHING ON HIS WEB SITE.

IMAGINE PRESIDENT KERRY!!
