"Sunday I will be part of a GOP team going to nursing and retirement homes and having people absentee vote. Will be doing this for next 3 weekends.We have already been instructed to bring Kerry's outing of Cheney"s daughter up with the voters. I will report back later how the issue is playing. What low, gutter type people Edwards and Kerry are. My guess is that this is a sub-terrainian issue that has the potential to hurt the democratic ticket. We shall see."

I have no doubt that this is a true statement about GOP teams going to nursing and retirement homes.

10. It could backfire on them, bigtime.
I can just hear some of the old fundies now:

"Dick Cheney has a LESBO gal for a daughter?"

11. Lies and more lies. I think retired people are more concerned
about their flu shots and expensive medication than any thing else.

12. "Sunday
I will be part of a GOP team going to nursing and retirement homes and filling out the absentee vote for people."

Repukes should not be allowed within a mile of any place where people live.

13. I work at a nursing home
Most of the residents cant stand Bush. They are called Extended Care Centers and the one I work at will go overwhelmingly for Kerry

19. Please be sure to report their attempts to influence the voters to the
media and election officials if they come to your nursing home. Also, don't let the Ghouls be alone with the senior citizens.

20. They did this before, I think. It was fraudulent...some of the people
had Alzheimer's, some had had strokes and couldn't vote, some didn't even know what year it was....but the "volunteers" filled the ballots out FOR them.

Fraud.

21. She was not "outed",she came out a long time ago
Unfortunately,the other party is the gay bashing party

Where is the "motherly indignation" for all of the moms who have to bury their 19 year old kid who was killed in Iraq based on a bunch of lies from her husband?

All of the repukes are so understanding about gay rights now.Gimme a break

25. let's see
Edited on Fri Oct-15-04 03:23 PM by BlueNomad
seems kind of lame to me---if I was in a nursing home would I care more about social security, medicare, prescription drugs and stem cell or that Kerry mentioned the word (lets say it in a whisper...like we used to with cancer) "gay".... and that the VP republican candidate's daughter is "gay"... I wish them luck on this one...as the day has gone on, I have become more convinced that some of the old tricks will no longer work as well as they did in years past.....

26. Send this (with a link to the site) to Olberman and Tweety because
it shows how the Republicans are exploiting this politically, not the Democrats.

28. Done. I asked them to have their staffs contact retirement and
nursing home residents to confirm this tactic and then report on it.

The website where I saw the post:

http://socialize.morningstar.com/NewSocialize/asp/FullConv.asp?forumId=F100000035&convId=126627

This is a pretty fun forum to debate Repukes. Try it.
