:::::I'm disappointed by Marge's response, but she is correct in that the article doesn't require her approval. I very much hope that Jpatt will continue to work on it, urge him to do so, and look forward (not too presumptuously, I hope) to reading a polished version. As a minor point, I am 'Mr' rather than a 'Mrs'. [[User:Bugler|Bugler]] 16:00, 20 September 2008 (EDT)

::::::I would wonder why my reply "disappointed" you '''Mr.''' Bugler, after all, you yourself urged us to remain amicable and work together towards the common good. Such has been done. I would roll up my sleeves and tackle the work myself but as it is an essay, it has the POV of the person who authored it. For me to endeavor to "polish" it would require a shift in style (if not substance) and the whole would be an ill fit. God bless. [[User talk:MargeryCampbell|Marge]] 16:15, 20 September 2008 (EDT)

If you don't know already, I am C-level college dropout when it comes to grammar. Looking back, I didn't apply myself. This article was comprised of a [[Wikiproject:News]] assignment. I was adding pages regarding Sheikh Jamal Said of Chicago. He was a indicted co-conspirator in the nations largest terror-financing probe. I told my project leader I would do an essay on what I have learned. That became the Special Interests Candidate, my first and only essay on CP. Now, knowing my deficiencies and the constant Obama lover criticism, see [[User_talk:Jpatt/Subway_Troll]], I decided to write anyway. I posted it and never looked at it again. I put in my summary: Hope my grammar will suffice. Since anybody could edit, I was just hoping at best somebody would. I am still new to the wiki format and didn't realize the implication of this being linked to Obama's page. I certainly, didn't imagine over 600 page views. Now that we are all upfront, I am open to changes, additions, GRAMMAR, spelling, anything. -- [[Image:50 star flag.png|14px]] [[User:Jpatt|jp]] 06:12, 21 September 2008 (EDT)
