I just had another (20th) email read on CNN...

[jenmito]

The question was, "Two years after Hurricane Katrina, why hasn't more attention been paid to restoring New Orleans?"

I wrote, "Because photo-ops are so much easier than actually following through on promises."

Just wanted to share... :hi:

[shaniqua6392]

1. Very well put!!

No wonder you keep getting your emails read. Excellent.

[jenmito]

3. Thanks, shaniqua6392!

:hi:

[Sparkly]

2. They ought to put you on their payroll at this point, jen!!

:applause: :yourock:

[jenmito]

6. Thanks, Sparkly!

[liberalnurse]

4. May I join your fan club?

:yourock:

[jenmito]

7. You'd have to start one first...

Thanks! :hi:

[HysteryDiagnosis]

5. Cuz our oil isn't under New Orleans neighborhoods. Sad but true. n/t

[jenmito]

8. True...

If you wrote in, that probably would've been read! :hi:

[NanceGreggs]

9. Good God, you are just SO GOOD at this!

You're always able to NAIL an issue with just a few, well-chosen words!

Yeah, I think CNN is going to have to give you your own on-site office soon ... or better yet, give you your own 15-minute segment every night!

:yourock:

[jenmito]

11. Thank YOU, NanceGreggs...

Coming from you, that's a great compliment! :yourock:

[NanceGreggs]

21. You REALLY ARE talented in this area ...

I wish some of our Dem candidates (not only presidential, but those running for other offices as well) would tap your talent to come up with campaign slogans, names for programs they want to institute, etc.

Way to GO, Jenmito!!!

[jenmito]

23. Thanks even more!

I would love to do something like that! :hi:

[NanceGreggs]

25. And you would be BRILLIANT at it!

I was just downstairs where my husband, JeffR, was watching the PBS news. I said, "Did you know that jenmito just had her ..."

He interrupted me and said, "Yeah, I know who you're talking about. She's the DUer who always nails an issue in less than 25 words!"

Your talent is well-known here, my friend!

[jenmito]

26. Really?

Wow-I can't believe that! I sign my name as Jenny from New York and sometimes from Nanuet, New York, depending where I send the emails from (my personal email or CNN's site). I'M going to be telling people that story now! Thanks again! :hi:

[UrbScotty]

10. Was that on the Cafferty File?

Sounds like it.

[jenmito]

12. Yup!

All of them but one has been from The Cafferty File. :hi:

[Oceansaway]

[Bongo Prophet]

That is a great skill, jenmito.
Glad you are on our side.
Booyah!

[jenmito]

18. Thanks, Bongo! But I'm not spinning...

Just tellin' it like it is! :hi: :D

[Bongo Prophet]

29. Acknowledged!

:toast:
Cheers!

[jenmito]

30. Thanks-

But I knew what you meant. :hi:

[Bitwit1234]

16. When I answered they used to read mine too because

I would write....YOU PROBABLY WON'T READ THIS EMAIL FROM ME BECAUSE I AM LIBERAL BUT........and they always did.

[jenmito]

19. That's good!

DARE them to read it. :D

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

17. You would make a great sound-bite writer for a candidate

You could use these letters as your resume!

[jenmito]

20. I would love to do that...

And thanks! :hi:

[JNelson6563]

[jenmito]

28. Thanks, AtomicKitten...

I've been waiting for you so I could thank you! :D :D :D :hi:

[AtomicKitten]

31. I was very excited to get on Washington Journal the other day.

They were asking for comments on Karl Rove. I had plenty to say on that subject, ha, ha.

The best part is I did a shout-out to DU and a couple DU'ers heard it. It's kinda cool that even scattered all over the country, we are connected.

Have a great weekend, Jen. You do a great job representing.

[jenmito]

32. What day/time? I can listen to it on c-span!

I got on the W.J., too, about 2 weeks ago for the 1st time! I asked why the Dems. let the admin. get away with using Zarqawi as proof al Qaeda was in Iraq when Saddam was trying to arrest him. I wrote about it here. It IS cool how we are connected in a way!

Thanks, you, too!
:hi:

[AtomicKitten]

35. it was the day I couldn't sleep ...

I'll try to figure it out and get back to you. Somebody posted a thread on it in GD at the time.

Cheers.

[jenmito]

36. Oh-ok...

The day you couldn't sleep.Got it. :D But if you CAN find the date, I'd love to hear your shout-out! :hi:
