You should not get abuse from this, seriously.
You put some work into this. It wasn't sick, demented, gross, or porn--it's good work. I did not see any bashing that went on one side or the other. Most of the people reviewing your work are probably Kerry supporters (I actually do my homework, so I am not a Kerry supporter), so for them, the more you bash the Pres, the better. The moment you give Kerry a little grief, it is all too obvious---they can dish it out, but can't take it. You did a fine job, and should not get a bunch of grief for your work. keep going!
