Sorry if you don't see it this way, JFK
I respect you as an activist, a man who served this country bravely in many fields.

I'm sorry that you are endorsing those writing emails on your behalf with your silence.

You have it ALL IN YOUR SIDE. Your fellow Democratic congressmen will challenge the OHIO vote tomorrow. Think on this picture for a second, Senator Kerry:

When all the Republican MSM is writing you off, when the Republicans are laughing at you because they stole it once again, and you seem to be out of the country far away and with no possibility of causing any "trouble" for the regime...you show up in a surprise press conference to support the effort and declare that you have enough evidence of electoral fraud and you will not acknowledge any legitimacy to the regime!

You know you won and now you will work to take your office back!

Sorry you don't see it that way, John.

I admire the courage of your convictions, but history usually just calls once.

This is your call. Answer the phone.

1. Three choices.
Given that Kerry conceded on Nov 3 and is now not even in the country during a time when our nation's identity and integrity are at stake, I see three possible ways to view Mr. Kerry:

1. Mr. Kerry is not the hard fighter we thought he was. He is weary and/or weak.

2. Mr. Kerry is satisfied with the outcome of the election.

or

3. Mr. Kerry already knows how many senators and representatives are going to challence the vote count and knows how many will vote not to certify at least Ohio. He knows he is not needed here at home because he knows that democrats and a few angry republicans are going to prevail.

These guys talk to each other. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that democrats know how all other democrats are going to vote tomorrow. Most votes are that way....MUCH behind the scenes wrangling and discussion. If it was a close call, or if his presence would help advance an otherwise languishing debate, I WOULD LIKE TO THINK THAT HE WOULD BE HERE!!

I choose #3 for tonight.

2. On the other hand, you could take him at his word
Item 2 seems to be the most likely, according to Occam's razor, I'm sorry to say.

3. Ok...
It is a tie on those buttons as to which one is better....

My personal fav is "I see Dumb People" followed by the "B*sh" with the nazi symbol

off completely, and then (ta-da!) the fraud will be proven in more than one state, and it will show Kerry the true winner. THAT is when we will have a constitutional crisis.

The republikkklansmen will be disgraced for a very long time.
The new oil trading market will have opened in Iran, and everyone on the globe starts trading oil in euros, or a mixed currency, and the U.S. dollar will collapse....hence, the stock market.
Kerry will have a better handle on the Iraq situation, and will know what to do to salvage it.
Elizabeth Edwards will be done with her chemotherapy and will be in "go" mode.

The damage bush has done is much further along than a lot of people realize. If Kerry had been inaugurated, they could have blamed it all on him. This way, it will all fall in bush's/mafia/neocon lap.


O8) And we'll all live happily ever after. O8)
