The picture is just huge in the print edition. The pic and article take up a lot of the front page. Pete Peterson, former congressman and veteran....gets one paragraph. A reporter was at Peterson's meeting, but according to our friend he took no notes nor did he even take pictures. If this makes you mad, go here to contact. Not that it matters, Bush and Cheney get all the publicity they want here.

SNIP..
"Trying to counter Cheney's appearance, former Democratic congressman and ambassador Pete Peterson came to the Polk County Democratic headquarters on Combee Road. Peterson, a former prisoner of war during Vietnam and the first post-war ambassador to that country, said that the Kerry-Edwards ticket is more understanding of the military and veterans than President Bush and Cheney...."Here is Pete's bio.
