8. John Kerry Group
hehheh, the other names are cute to call each other.

but if you are talking about the official name of the group i think "John Kerry Group" is best since i want those who may not already support Kerry to be welcome to come in.

16. I think it's more of an official nickname
It came up yesterday, so we decided to do a poll. This is still officially the John Kerry Group with DU. I don't think that will change.

10. I voted for Kerrycrats, although Band of Brothers would've rocked
If it weren't so gender-specific.

I like Kerry Freedom Fighters too. John Kerry is a self-described fighter, and fight is what we're going to have to do in the next fours years - fight like hell against the dangerous neocon agenda and watch our man's back. I don't see fighting for what's right as a negative thing.

17. I didn't realize that, Ginny
Thanks! I thought it was great the first time I heard it, too. It brings to mind images of unity with the group. I am an awful sap, as you know, so I like all that stuff.

12. I say Kerrycrats
We have had that name all this time and it is a good one why change it now? Besides I don't know about the rest of you but I'm always telling others wether it be online or not about the Kerrycrats. People think it rocks that we are building a large group with a name like the Kerrycrats. Like some have told me if we really get built up and rolling strong John might mention that he has a large group of supporters that has his back called the Kerrycrats. He might mention the Kerrycrats more than what you think. But we have to get him checking us out and maybe posting once in a while. He doesn't even know we exist right now.

13. And it's probably a good thing we have our own smut forum now too
So in case he ever does hear about us and check this forum out, he won't think that all we care about is his hot, gorgeous body.

That's only PART of what I care about :evilgrin:

Speaking of the smut forum, do you have the url? If not, would you like me to PM it to you?

14. Yes
I have had it for a little while now. Lately I have been going into the other forums again. I have gotten to the point when I get pissed I start getting mean thoughts sometimes worse than mean and I want to take and kick people's ass over John wether it be repuke or a dumbass lefty that can't get their brain out of their ass. I'm so damn sick of these bastards lying, spewing their repuke talking points, making their stupid ass, nasty ass remarks about him that I have truly become a evil minded person and all I think about is revenge. So I then become like a damn machine gun firing and killing the enemy. And enjoy the hell out of doing it! :evilgrin:

And believe me, my aim starting to get pretty damn good. Because they either STFU or they get so mad they leave. And I go around hunting the bastards and I know their are many who have already ran into me and hate like hell that I have found them again. I'm starting to really enjoy it almost to well at times, but I am determine to to get the bastards who continue to mess with my hero! :evilgrin:

I will eventually make it over there to the LLL website. I have it on my favorites list. But right now seriously I'm enjoying myself destroying those who think they are going to continue their bullshit attacks on our leader! Our president! :evilgrin:

15. thank you for carrying on the fight so consistantly
It is such an energy drainer to go in those Kerry-hostile environments. I think one of my functions in life is to cheer people up, and help everyone stay optimistic (although I have been known to piss and moan a few times with all of you), so I am at my best when I'm dressing the emotional wounds of those who have gone to the front lines and taken up verbal arms in defense of our hero. I will answer any call to arms for my hero (and those of you fighting in his defense), but I'm so grateful that you who patrol the borders of enemy territory do it so consistantly.

:grouphug: Thanks Kerrycrats...
