Fortunately, all of you have a very good opportunity to express your disgust with the Boston Police Department and its supporters.

The police union is currently in a dispute with with the city and, two weeks ago, picketed the U.S. Conference of Mayors convention which was being held in the city.

John Kerry was supposed to speak at the convention at the invitation of Boston Mayor Thomas Menino but cancelled at the last minute because he refused to cross the police union picket line.

I am certain that all those who are so angry with the Boston Police will demonstrate their displeasure with Kerry by voting against him in November.
