5. Well, you can tell him Melissa in PA said...
Bush HAS done something to me personally. He took my friend's life. My friend Mikey was an intelligent, kind, compassionate 19-year-old. We were sitting in my college English class when he told me that he was being deployed, and he made me promise him I would do everything I could to make sure * wasn't elected. He told me how everyone in his "unit" (or whatever it was, I don't recall) hated * and thought the war was for nothing. He was killed two months later.

What's more, * has made certain that I will probably never be able to own my own home because I'll be paying taxes out my ass until I am 85. Of course, I'll still probably be working at 85 too, since there won't be any SS for me either. That is, if I don't get drafted before then.

This Pizza Boy better watch his step, or he'll end up like my friend. No one deserves the dishonor of dying for a lie.

And kudos to you for not supporting * supporters. If I were you, I'd call and ask to speak to the owners (or write them a note) and tell them exactly why you're taking your business elsewhere.
