The Wexler kid, Ilana Wexler. Among her other wit & wisdom, she dissed Vice President Cheney.

I missed it to; I was only able to read it.

A sample:

[AUTHENTICITY CERTIFIED: Text version below transcribed directly from audio]

My name is Ilana Wexler. I'm 12 years old, and I am the founder of "Kids for Kerry."

Kids for Kerry is a grassroots organization of kids that support John Kerry, want to help their futures, and get active in politics...

...When our Vice President had a disagreement with a Democratic senator, he used a REALLY BAD word.

If I said that -- If I said that word, I would be put in a "time-out."

I think he should be put in a time-out...

...Kids need -- Kids need positive -- Kids need positive role models in politics. And our Vice President deserves a longgggggg time-out.



She is from Oakland, Ca; and I have tried to learn without success whether she is related to Robert Wexler.
