I am Mr. Pengov,
I listed my vote for sale, not to actually sell it but to get some attention to the health care problems facing our nation. It worked as Mr. Kerry's first mention of health care was the evening my story went national. Of course, Mr. Kerry's plan to get drugs from Canada was shot down by officials from Canada.
As for the library, the injunction that I filed was first to stop the movie before the election (I got what I wanted, no showings till after the election) and second, to get the library to take steps to keep children out of the show without parental permission; It is after all rated R. (I lost)
The Elyria Library has promised me that even a 7 year-old is welcome to the show. Not that one would want to see it! The problem that I had is the show will be on a large screen right by the restrooms and the war footage is too graphic for children to process if they see it. There is a scene in the film that depicts a soldier touching the private parts of a corpse and making fun of it. Moore went so far as to sub title the clip so you would be sure to notice. Moore is a sick pervert and his film is a low blow to our military as well as the President.
God Bless Our Troops! Hats off to all of you that are also fighting to keep President Bush for 4 more years.

Mr Pengov, Thank you for your reply. I am again very grateful for your work in stopping our library from showing this film pre-election. I am not shocked to hear of how it would be shown, but even more stuck by the stance you took and the importance of it.

About the Ebay, thank you for your explanation. I am not sure I would do it, but I think yours is a reasonable point.

My husband and I were talking just evening that we live in a changing area. Opportunity is here to advance and educate. We spoke specifically about Sherrod Brown. I think his time here is waning. Not this election cycle obviously, but the next one, I believe his seat can be had. Isn't it time someone stood at the Lorain docks and asked people what Brown has done for them? Years of his representation has brought them what?

He sits on the Commerce Committee's Subcommittee on Health but this county faces loss of physicians and a crisis of malpractice premiums. He sits on the House Energy and Commerce Committee but look at the nuclear plant out our back door. Brown is the ranking Democrat on the Energy and Commerce Committee's Subcommittee on Health but ask the people in Elyria with raw sewage in their basements backed up from an outdated water treatment plant if he is helping them live healthy lives...I digress..

Isn't it time?

All Elections are Local.
