Kerry campaign knucklehead of the day.
So, I am manning the phones today calling registered Dems and I hear this.

"I Vote the man and not the party. I can assure you I will not be voting for that lying coward John Kerry."

It took all I had to not drive to her house and back hand that fool woman. This kind of nonsense is proof positive that Faux, OxyRush, and InsHannity are a poison on this fair nation.

Just had to share, keep up the good work y'all.


Volunteer! Volunteer! Volunteer!

Did you ask where "lying coward" came from? Or just didn't waste
time with her? Since she is a registered Dem is it worth wasting any more time with someone like this?

10. It was my first call of the day this morning.
IMHO arguing would be a waste of time.

despite her party registration.

12. This list was considered to be "good" Dems who have voted
regularly in the last few Nat. elections.

7. Quote from St. Bill
"The true axis of evil in America is the brilliance of our marketing combined with the stupidity of our people. George Bush has $180 million to spend. With that kind of money, he could convince Americans to drink paint, and he probably will."
--Bill Maher

8. Did you manage the call?
Edited on Wed Sep-01-04 07:07 PM by liberalnurse
Start in slowy....make reference to where she heard it....then ask questions wherein the answer will be clear that this is propaganda information.


Like: "Well Mam, I hear what you are saying and when I heard that, boy my head was spinning....but then I though"t,,,,,

and so on.... use examples of the medal system....gain her trust, let her do the thinking....which they can. Just help them process the facts.


It's like being a teacher.

9. i canvassed last Sunday
and met 30+ voters. Every one was great except this one lady who's door was open. When we knocked on the screen and asked for the voter (a male) the woman says "Who are you?" I reply "We're with the Kerry campaign asking voters to fill out an early ballot request."

She screamed (YELLED i tell ya) "WE WONT BE VOING FOR KERRY" with a wild look in her eye. As I thanked her and turned away she LEAPT over the couch and ran to the door like I was Attilla the Hun attacking her home.

We had walked back down to the street before she reached the door thank heaven, but I tell you, she was MANIC paranoid :shrug:

17. my rebuttals for that kind of name-calling against John Kerry:
when ppl claim John Kerry's a such-and-such, i then give an example of something * did, without mentioning *'s name, and then that person goes yeah, see what i'm saying? and then i say, well actually, that's what * did, not John Kerry. stops 'em in their tracks.

21. I had a pro-swifties go off on me the other day
while I was doing a non-partisan voter registration. He started frothing at the mouth and going on about how ALL vets hate that lying coward Kerry. So I am in a spot, 'cause I really shouldn't talk politics during these things, but the man is telling lies. So I thought for a minute and said, "well I know many vets who admire that he served." Which is true. He backed off at that point, but sad thing is I HAD to register him to vote. Good news, 4:1 dems to pugs overall that day, so his vote has been neutralized.

23. I had a Swifty supporter tell me not to talk bad about about Vets.
I reminded him that He might try to remember that Tim McVey was a Vet, and LH Oswald was a Vet, and both of them were human filth. I ended with the fact that I was a Vet and he wasn't so he should think before he questions me.
