| Why is Kerry in Iraq this week? |
|
Election fraud is in the forefront of all our politicians' minds, even though you wouldn't know it from watching the MSM. All your letters to our representatives made sure of it. Kerry is especially aware of the grass-roots movement to object to the certification of the vote. So why is he keeping silent on it, and why has he decided to be in Iraq January 6th?
1) Kerry thinks he really lost the election and wants to make himself scarce on January 6th so that he doesn't have to face an angry mob of Democrats demanding to know why he won't unconcede. He's praying that we'd all disappear.
2) Kerry knows he really won the election and has a secret plan to expose the fraud. He's in Iraq lending support to our troops so that the Democrats back home can work to prevent certification of the election without Rove accusing him (predictably) of being unpatriotic. Rove shamefully timed the invasion of Fallujah to take place in the days following the election so that if Kerry were to contest the vote, Rove could accuse him of being unpatriotic for not supporting the president while our troops were under fire. With Kerry visiting the troops, Rove's smear tactic won't work.
Whatever happens, we'll know soon what Kerry's made of.

| 1. I really want to believe #2, but think it's kind of delusional... |
|
But who knows? It's a possibility. I've just lost faith in Kerry at this point since he didn't stand up in the first place. Make no mistake, I am fighting and driving all the way to DC to protest on Jan 6 and will fight. I just wish we had one leader in our efforts and it should have been him.

stick with Kerry or to jettison him. If Kerry really doesn't have it in him to fight it, then we need to abandon him because our efforts won't have any credence when we have as our mascot someone who doesn't believe in us. So far, the MSM is taking its cues from Kerry's reluctance and not reporting on the fraud.

but it ain't from Kerry. I like the term CM (corporate media)--that says it all.

one gets the feeling that if the vote actually did turn over, Kerry would have to be drug kicking and screaming to the WH

| 4. Remember what the media did to Gore? |
|
If Kerry came out at any time to protest the election, what do you think the media would have done to him? They would have given all the air time to Bush and minions and they would have called him everything but purple. It's much better if he stays out of the limelight until all is said and one. Attention will be put where it needs to be put and that's on the election fraud. The media has tried to ignore it for the most part, but on the 6th it will have to sit up and take notice if a senator joins Conyers.

Support for what he thought gave him the best chance at the Presidency.
When he only wanted to count counties that were strongly ours, it was a naked partisan grab that gave lie to the "count every vote" theme. His public support evaporated.
If he had wanted to count the whole state, his public and media support would have been much stronger.... and he would have won.

| 8. I think that is a mistaken belief... |

I thought the same thing about Gore picking those counties. I later read, that it was a little more complicated then that. He had a choice to count a few counties immediately, or the Fl law was he would have to wait if he wanted to count all. I will try to find the article where I read it. I remember thinking "Why were we lead to believe Gore made a partisan mistake, when it was clearly a legal choice that made sense". If I can't find the article, I am sure it can be researched

Commander in chief Kerry will receive instant legitimicay by hordes of cheering soldiers. He will ride those cheers back into the national limelight. At least I wish.

We'll soon find out whether that statement holds any water, or if it was just some stupid campaign sound bite.
