Edited on Wed Apr-20-05 12:11 PM by proud patriot
This is an old thread at free republic but it discusses

Kerry supporters .

Go and check out the website communistsforkerry.com (NO WWW!). It's a riot! I laughed so hard yesterday my wife thought I had lost my mind.

The lovely young lady is on our side, folks. It's a spoof site.

My favorite is what happens when you click on "contact secret police".

One of the main differences between our side and theirs is we have much more fun than they do!

We also have MUCH better looking women!

i was actually laughing at that pic, until i read your comment.....i thought at first that you didnt "get it"...(& how unusual is that, right??)
then i looked again....I guess i cant believe these people are that stooooopid! i mean, wouldnt that poster fit right in at a protestwarrior rally? what could be more transparent?



here's the link to see for yourself .

http://communistsforkerry.com/GPU/viewtopic.php?t=122

I wrote Time Magazine to let them know , not that it matters
but I wrote them anyway .

I wish we could find out who is behind both protest warrior
and the communists for Kerry websites. I bet Rove has his
fingerprints on it somewhere , we just have to find it .

1. That was my question.
Edited on Wed Apr-20-05 12:07 PM by deutsey
The editors at TIME didn't think, oh, there might just be something odd about Communists organizing to support Kerry?

The first time I saw these idiots at an anti-war demonstration, it took me maybe 5 seconds to figure out they were a put-on.

I suppose they also believe Billionaires for Bush are really billionaires who support Bush. Oops. Sorry, any lurking TIME editors out there...didn't mean to spoil that one for you too.

3. The protest warriors go to liberal demostrations
Edited on Wed Apr-20-05 12:16 PM by proud patriot
and pretend to be a part of the crowd , but their
signs are meant to offend and embarass liberals .

The picture submitted to time is from the Republican
National Convention Protests .

People could be fooled if they aren't aware of their tactics.

I bet coulter submitted that picture herself and the people
at Time didn't research it .

I also sent this thread to Mike Malloy and Randi Rhodes .

7. Remember Osama's nuclear bomb plans?
In a strange twist, the Times report was addressed in a Thursday press conference by Governor Tom Ridge, director of the Office of Homeland Security. Ridge referred to the discovery of "materials relative to a nuclear threat" and said they were "certainly consistent with statements that he would like to acquire that capacity."

"It is not to say, it does not confirm that he has the capacity," Ridge told the reporters. "It just says that whether it's bin Laden or some other potential foe of this country, we have to be prepared for all eventualities, including a nuclear threat."

11. No, We're funnier
Edited on Wed Apr-20-05 04:32 PM by ProudDad
I take issue with "U S Army EOD" the freeper; we're MUCH funnier and have MUCH more beautiful women. Al Franken and Bill O'Reilly -- need I say more?

We also have the Truth on our side. Their "truth" is a primer on "how to destroy the earth with metastatic, corporate capitalism". They have no spiritual or humane component to their "truth".
