88. Why? Why should I have fun with attacks on Kerry?
Edited on Tue Mar-23-04 11:38 AM by Feanorcurufinwe
Why would you wish me to have fun with attacks on Kerry?

What actually is your point?



You are criticizing me for guessing your point

( my guess was: you take glee in attacks on Kerry because of hurt feelings from the primary campaign )

so rather than guess your point, I'm asking: what is your point?



Because if that interpretation is wrong, the next one I would come up with is, you take glee in my supposed discomfiture at attacks on Kerry. But that would be awfully mean-spirited on your part so I'd rather not think that's true.




You said: Enjoy having Kerry smeared by the Republicans


What did you mean? Please correct my flawed interpretation.
