Requesting help from Freepers

Posted on 03/27/2004 9:52:29 AM PST by jsh3180

My sister, Sabina Haskell, is the editor of the Bennington Banner in Vermont. I was just having a lively discussion with her. She HATES George Bush and has written many anti-Bush editorials for that renowned newspaper. She bet me a buck, yes thats ONE DOLLAR that I could not find anyone to write her pro Bush letters. Are you all up to the challenge?? Please help me win a buck. Her email is shaskell@benningtonbanner.com

Thanks a bunch

"Be gentle, it's a freepers sister."

Yeah, may want to review what you write after 24 hours or so.

I've posted in haste and repented at leisure more than I care to remember.

Specially when my blood gets hot. And this election year, it's getting hot alot!

What? Have you never heard of tough love? Have you never read: Spare the rod, spoil the child?

I took her at her word. It would be nice to have a looney left university town newspaper editor get snowbound in email truth.

You can say, if you wish, that I just joined Free Republic two weeks ago and in a sense that may be correct.
I have been reading the posts her on FR for 4 years, but never posted until a couple of weeks ago when a person by the name of Elle Bee posted an article about Key West politics. As a resident of Monroe County, Florida, aka the Florida Keys, I felt a need to respond, so I registered to make a reply.
I am a bit taken back by your scepicism, but I guess it comes with the territory. My post was an honest request to show the editor of a Vermont newspaper (my sister) that her neck of the woods is not the be all, end all of the world.
So sorry if you think I am a "troll". 'Tis surely not the case.

Out of the mouths of Democrats By The Associated Press, 3/5/2004

John Kerry's Democratic rivals for the presidential nomination had more than a few choice words for him before they dropped out of the race and pledged to support him:

--WESLEY CLARK:-- "We need leadership that will take responsibility in this country and I'm very disturbed that John did not do that." On Kerry's comments related to affirmative action.

"Senator Kerry and Senator Edwards are good men, but they don't have the leadership to stand up to millionaires."

"I don't think people understand in this country how politicians in Washington can say one thing and do something else." Criticizing both Kerry and Edwards.

"Part of the Washington way of doing things." Referring to Kerry and Edwards.

--HOWARD DEAN-- "This is not the person we need to head the Democratic Party. I think Senator Kerry is clearly not the person to carry the banner of the Democratic Party because he has acted so much like a Republican."

--"President Kerry. Please, spare us."

--"I'm just incensed by his hypocrisy."

--"Senator Kerry apparently supports the kind of corrupt fund raising, politically corrupt fund-raising mechanisms that George Bush has also employed."

--"We are not going to beat George Bush by nominating someone who is the handmaiden of special interests."

--"A special interest clone."

--"A candidate of no principle."

--"Just another inside-the-Beltway guy who's played the game for 15 years."

--JOHN EDWARDS-- "What he's saying now is different than what he did in the past." On Kerry's position on trade.

The American people don't want another Washington insider who never plays it straight. They don't want a follower who makes decisions by licking his finger and sticking it up in the wind."

"I have a lot of respect for him, and I know he does for me. We're actually friends. But we have very different views."--"I don't take contributions from lobbyists. He obviously does."

"I think he's said some different things at different points in time. So I think there's been some inconsistency."

--DICK GEPHARDT-- "John Kerry is no friend to family farmers." From a campaign mailing

"We can keep pursuing George Bush's tired, old, failed economic policies like Senator Kerry and other Democrats in this race have suggested. Or we can learn from the policies that worked for us."

"Kerry's explanation of how he'll pay for his plan doesn't add up. He's trying to have it both ways." Campaign press release on health care.

"I don't think cheap sound bites hiding expensive plans are the answer." On health-care proposals from Kerry and Dean.

--JOE LIEBERMAN-- "We also don't need a waffler in charge of our country's future."

"I do think that Senator Kerry was sounding an uncertain trumpet about that particular battle." Regarding Iraq war resolution.

"This is about the votes that he's cast that I believe are inconsistent." On Kerry's votes related to Iraq.

Irish Heritage?

http://www.nationalreview.com/mgraham/graham200403170834.asp

Excuse me Senator ... but, you do not have Irish ancestors ...

In a draft of prepared remarks reported in the Boston Globe, Kerry told a group in 1984: "As some of you may know, I am part-English and part-Irish. And when my Kerry ancestors first came over to Massachusetts from the old country to find work in the New World, it was my English ancestors who refused to hire them."

I don't think you're a troll but here's a bit of advice. Never post your email address on any board. It is an open invitation for those that disagree with your views to make your email life miserable. I would suggest you post to the AdminModerator and ask him or her to edit your email address out.

Thanks for the advice on removing the email address. I'm not too worried, I have a secure firewall in my system and can take whatever heat comes my way. After 50 emails a day to refinance my mortgage, make my penis larger, or buy acquire a sattelite dish for free, I no longer care about trash mail.
