Aww, How Cute


From Guardian Unlimited:

Readers used to seeing John Kerry's name appear in the newspaper may have been surprised to find him writing to Dear Abby's advice column. In a letter that began running in newspapers May 20, Kerry wrote in support of a 13-year-old girl who said she was ridiculed by her teacher and classmates for revealing that she'd one day like to be president of the United States. "I was touched by your letter to Dear Abby, and I want you to know that you can become the president of the United States because of who you are, not in spite of it," Kerry wrote. "I have no doubt a woman will be president one day, and America would be lucky to have you leading us every step of the way. When young people like you express such a desire to make a difference in people's lives, you should be applauded," Kerry continued. "Your teacher and your classmates were wrong to laugh at your dream."

Mmmmmm..... I don't know about this. Bush had a desire to make a difference in people's lives, and look where that got us. Power corrupts, and Bush corrupts absolutely.
