1. well, that just about sums up how simple it was for the Repukes ...

snip...

"Alex Pelosi's new film "Diary of a Political Tourist" catches a tipsy Congressman Peter King making a comment at a White House function before the election had been finished that, "It's already over. The Election's over. We Won."
When Pelosi asks, "How do you know that?" King replies, "It's all over but the counting. And we'll take care of the counting."

2. excerpt? synopsis? hint?

something, anything to tell me what's there? I've really come to HATE it when people post "blind" links... especially those whose names I don't recognize... with all the web-based malicious programs out there, I don't like to click on just any old link... I mean, how hard is it to paste a couple of paragraphs?

3. if you are afraid to go to the link, just read what I put under #2

now I am wondering why this guy hasn't been depositioned in the investigation by anyone?? Who is this jerky Congressman???

23. Peter King: Rep. (3rd Congressional District, New York)

The 3rd is a district on western LI basically covering
western Nassau County up to Brooklyn and Queens.

King is an Irishman, I believe he was formerly sympathetic
to the IRA.

Irish in New York were formerly all Democrats, but
there's been an exodus of conservative Catholics
to the Republican party, ever since the great Roosevelt
North-South coalition was undone in the 50's and 60's.

That's Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reilly territory, and
King is, to some extent, cut from the same cloth.

You can look at the New York districts here.

From that area, I much prefer Carolyn McCarthy, Rep. (4th).

30. He's A Major Leauge Asshole From Long Island. Since I'm From LI

I think I'll start harassing him for an answer about this issue.

4. Sorry Will Do Better Next Time Didn't Mean To Upset Anyone

[lostnfound]

7. Welcome to DU!

That quote is a classic, it's nice to be reminded of it.

[PennyMan]

8. Thanks For the Welcome I'm Learning

[burn the bush]

9. no need to be sorry. You are a member like everyone else

everyone is getting a little testy. I think the ups and downs and the deparate feeling that we have to be heard is making us snarky.

13. I Won't Kerry To Win As Much As Anybody I'm One Of The The Middle Class

That Got the Shaft Over And Over And Over Again * Has Got To Go !

17. s'alright!

Sorry if I was snippy... yours was the third one I'd encountered, and I just snapped! Or, "snipped" if you like... ;) Again, sorry, and welcome to DU!

19. Seeing that this person was new, you could try to be a bit lighter...

...in your approach.

5. This should be shown on TV. It brings chills to my body.

[hootinholler]

24. When this breaks...

I bet it gets air time.

26. This has been around for quite a while I believe. n/t

[NVMojo]

6. A congressman from New York, for Pete's sake!!!

someone needs to pull his ass in now!!! Of course, Rove will probably prep him to say ..."I was intoxicated and not responsible for what came out of my fat mouth..."

10. by itself the quote means nothing...

He'll simply say he was drinking, joking, etc....

[Quakerfriend]

15. He has already said that he was just joking around

and "Do you think I would be stupid enough to say that to the Democratic Whips kid?"......I don't recall where I saw it.

[seabeyond]

18. Do you think I would be stupid enough to say that

but he said it. so obviously he was stupid enough to "say it". saying this is even stupider than saying the original quote

[Joe Chi Minh]

12. In vino,

veritas. When people are in their cups, they are more prone to speak the truth.

[NVMojo]

20. I agree with you, wine loosens up the lips and the heart ....

[PennyMan]

22. How Ever You Look At It Sure Wasn't A Very Smart Thing To Say

Especially In Front Of A Camera

[Joe Chi Minh]

27. The heart is the key, NVMojo,

whether the author of the words be black-hearted or a regular mixture, like most of us.

I never initiated religious discussions when drinking in the army, but it almost invariably came up when I went for a drink, and we'd talk for a long time on the subject. I mean I was a Private IInd class, like Duane Dobermann (even worked in the motor pool!), so we're not talking the officers' mess, here!

21. Veritaserum

eom

28. Love that

"truth serum", Clark2000!

[kitkat65]

11. What really strikes me is the time of day it is

It's daylight and the polls couldn't have been closed by then

Here in Ohio it was dark by around 6:30 p.m., we closed at 7:30.

[FreepFryer]

14. This was when she was travelling with the Bush Campaign

early in the year, iirc. Or was it the 2000 Election?
She then travelled with the Dean and Kerry campaigns.

In any respect, it was certainly NOT Election Day 2004.

[grumpy old fart]

16. Was summer of 2004...

at a White House BBQ, as I recall.

[sunnystarr]

25. I had read that it was the summer of 2003.

"Your daughter, Alexandra, caught a moment in her latest film, "Diary of a Political Tourist," that sent chills down my spine! It bears a closer look. I'm sure you remember in the summer of 2003(!), at the annual White House BBQ, Alexandra queried a few of her former, Republican, traveling companions, asking if Bush is 'beatable'?. Pete King answered her, knowingly, dismissively; "It's already over - the election's over. We won!" Alexandra asks, "How do you know that?" King replies "It's all over except the counting - and we'll take care of the counting." In former times, I'd view that as political posturing or just bluster - but the way he says it is downright sinister! He telegraphs that he knows something we don't! He telegraphs that the Republicans have figured out how they're going to steal the election!"

and also this: (I didn't realize it was in an HBO documentary)


A HBO documentary aired on October 11, 2004 allegedly shows New York Congressman Pete King saying about the upcoming 2004 presidential election, "It's already over". "The elections over". "We won". "It's all over but the counting and we'll take care of the counting".

The documentary, 'Diary of a Political Tourist', by Alexandra Pelosi, chronicling her two-year road trip on the Democratic campaign trail. Pete King's statement was allegedly made sometime in this two year period.

29. Has Olbermann seen the King clip?

I know this has been around for a while, so I ask, has KO seen it? Do you think he would put it on his show? He will do weird things.

Of course King says he was fooling around, but when an election looks so fishy, to have said it like that also looks a little bit suspect.
