Whether it was a Freudian slip (parapraxia), gaffe or a faux pas, I took personal offense at John Kerrey's remark. To think that my son has served two "sentences" in Iraq and some Senator implies (whether on purpose or not) that my son is an uneducated  loser enraged me.  His "joke" may have been directed at Shrub, but it didn't come across as such. When I first heard Kerrey's remark, all I could think is that he was telling kids that if they weren't "smart,"  they'd wind up " stuck"  in Iraq. I could only take what he said as he said it.  Imus told him this morning to either say what he really meant or to shut up. I think Kerrey fucked up in a big way at the expense of his party.  This issue has bothered me today. Am I wrong? What is right? Is there such a thing as "right" these days? What do you think?

This is the last night I will sleep alone for awhile. The novelty of sleeping alone has worn off. I'm ready to have Richard hold me again while I fall asleep and wake up. I'm ready to cook again, love and share our lives.  It's going to be the best winter of our 33 years together.
