"kids and anthrax: bad idea" Posted earlier but still applies here: What kind of idiot would suggest a letter writing exchange with the Mid-East during this Jihad against America? My God even RepubliCONS must see the idiocy of this idea.... O.K. Maybe they are so blind that they would follow this guy off any cliff.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Top

I do like a pen-pal program...it lets kids who don't have shoes know what kind of video games kids over here want for Christmas. Call me crass.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Top

birdman (97 posts) Oct-25-01, 08:58 PM (ET) 4. "What an idiot" With anthrax-laced letters showing up at U.S. Post Offices what do we need more than anything else ? How about getting American children involved in a letter writing campaign with children from other countries ? Yes, just when you thought bumpkin boy couldn't get any more ridiculous than he is already he comes up with this scheme. This is even better than his "Send a buck to the kids I don't kill with my bombs" campaign. So we encourage extra mail volume (and foreign mail at that)just when the mail is killing people. Of course the babbling imbecile portrayed this as a way to show that "we're fighting evil with good".   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Top
