Senator Kerry, as your tour over "Flyover Country" continues, it must be really hard on your stomachs. You and the missus are used to the finest cuisine and now have to look like you are eating like the locals. All the little people are so impressed! I know you must have been embarassed by the revelation that you ate on the bus at stop and threw the local food in the garbage. We all saw that you really didn't eat at Wendy's. I mean, everyone thought you were eating at Wendy's, but then you had some take out at a more "substantial" place for some decent food. I know that a wealthy "Uber" class person such as yourself wants to really eat the way you are used to. So, as a service to your campaign, I am doing a little research on your next pitstop on the way to the White House.
After a little more research, it seems that the best restaurant at your next stop in Jefferson City seems to be a place called Madison's Café. It has a 3 star review it should make for a decent meal after pretending to eat at some dumpy Missouri ham 'n egger. Look, you have to take a bite at Wendy's or at Philly cheese steak stand, but then you have to really eat.
Here is the address:
216 Madison Street
Jefferson City, Missouri 65101-3230
573.634.2988
Your palates shouldn't suffer while you are out on the stump to gain the office you so richly deserve. -And if it costs a little more so what, the campaign is paying for it anyway.
Just trying to help.

Oh, and if some of the fine Missouri FReepers want to make some dining suggestions for the Kerry's I am sure they would greatly appreciate it....

So I guess if Kerry wins the election, it's no more peanut butter and jelly with milk on Airforce One? The press corps love to be dined extravagantly and that was one of the reasons the press so wildly loved Clinton. If Helen Thomas gets peanut butter and jelly, don't expect her to write kindly about Bush. Maureen Dowd likes her duck pate' and sea urchin sushi in order to get any decent story printed.
Washington is an overflowing feed lot full of pampered opportunists who would rather use Wendy's cuisine as dogfood. No perked coffee either! It's $4.00 per cup espresso from starbucks or no coffee at all.
The Kerry's are proof that Washington needs a purge from it's fantasy and needs diner food and diner budgets.

Madison's is the classic gathering place of legislators, lobbyists, association executives and downtown state workers willing to spend $10 or so on lunch or about $25 on dinner. They consistently have good food. It's a nice place and just a couple of blocks from Kerry's likely rally spot. Domenico's is also good as is Cafe Deville and Alexandro's. Some lobbyists types prefer Das Stein Haus.
If you're more a limited on your budget or just want to enjoy a real, honest, down-home dining experience, I'd recommend the Ecco Lounge, Towne Grill or the Cajun Catfish House. We also have a number of really good (and cheap) Mexican restaurants. All things, considered, the eating's pretty good in this town of 35,000.

In all fairness, I also found Ken Starr leaving his home each morning with a cup of Starbucks in his hand to be a bit disgusting as well. It meant he had some aide bring him his coffee to his home every morning. When our government servants hire servants to bring them coffee @$4 a cup and on an expense report, paid for by tax payers, a solution to that scenario needs to be in place in a hurry or eventually you get mobs with pitchforks and paramilitary responses.

Ever since Dave Thomas passed away, Wendy's has been going downhill. Same for Taco Bell after they dumped their talking chihuahua.

Kerry will make sure 'the little people' working for him (probably for no pay)...will get
'fast food' ..while Kerry the Mrs and Ben get first class chow...
There was an episode on MASH once where Charles Emerson Winchester III, receives a gourmet meal from home..which he is unwilling to share with anyone except Margret Houlihan (whom Charles in his regalness is hoping to bag using his gourmet canned food as both an attractant & payment)
They both dine to fine music and a little wine...only to get food poisoning...they spend the next day in cramps...with frequent rushes to the privy at the most inopportune times...
One hopes for justice in this world...and occasionally it strikes down the proud without warning
IMO

I think I've never read such an odd random compliment such as yours. Dave Thomas and a Chihuahua on equal billing?
I think Dave put in a tad more sweat equity than that chihuahua.
I knew what you meant though! It just sounded funny.

I wonder if Kerry might inform us that he and Teresa first met at a Waffle House? I'd just love to see them shmoozing with the snaggle toothed, tattooe'd, big belt buckled, hairsprayed trailer queens that frequent Waffle House. It would boost Kerry's numbers in the south though, where his support is weak.
Teresa might just develop an appetite for bisquits-n-gravy or country ham? Country ham is more of a controlled rot ham which is non poisonous due to it's ratio of salt to meat. A twenty pound ham is composed of ten pounds meat and ten pounds salt. One one ounce serving provides enough sodium for a human for three weeks based on daily needs.

Great letter! I'd like to see the news report about the "Wendy's anniversary cheeseburger lunch" (heard Kerry picked up the tab...LOL!) followed by the real catered "luncheon" from the local country club...did they really throw away the Wendy's food?? Idiots!

Wendy's has the best hamburgers of any of the fast food joints.

If you're more a limited on your budget or just want to enjoy a real, honest, down-home dining experience, I'd recommend the Ecco Lounge, Towne Grill or the Cajun Catfish House. I'd add Johnny's Butcher Shop restaurant to that list. Madison's is good, my wife and I eat there a few times a year. We usually go there on our anniversary, but we're going down to Osage Beach to Dorsey Schroeder's place this year.
