.....But the mystery was solved when The Post reviewed a Fox News Channel feed from Thursday's debate: Kerry pulled out . . . a black pen.

Kerry campaign spokesman David Wade remained angry at the bloggers' guilt-by-insinuation.

"The right-wing attack machine will say anything to steal a debate do-over," he said.

"We plead guilty to having a pen."

The Bush campaign did not comment.

1. That pen was obviously

responsible for bush's performance and the cause of all the problems facing America today.

3. doncha love it? an honorable guy with great character is being

dumped on . . . by guess whom? a bunch of rightwingnuts who honor a guy with little character (if any) and even less veracity!

A pen? A pen. LOL

Unbelievably stupid story, although amusing! It would be great to really rub their round Freeper noses in it! They will stoop at nothing!

12. No, it was not a stupid story; it was a FASCINATING story

I found it fascinating that there was the possibility that Kerry cheated. I liked the idea that he may have cheated and gotten away with it. I would have loved it if he had been able to cheat and still not have given the GOP enough evidence to go mainstream with it. It was eating them up!

8. SORE LOSERMAN

Ahhh. I like the sound of that.

9. Absolutely pitiful. The right wing is down to using Zell Miller spitballs.

That's apparently what they're down to, if this is the biggest attack-item they have in their arsenal this weekend.

Sad. But not surprising.

10. Ah my friends but it was more than just a pen.

It was a secret device designed to disrupt the transmission to the President's ear piece.

Thus when Karl Rove said "Mixed messages"

Bush heard and said "Mexed missages."

I'm rather pleased that a right wing Murdoch owned newpaper like the Post had the integrity to print this--or maybe they just didn't want to look like idiots.

To paraphrase Freud "Sometimes a pen is just a pen."

11. But it DID look like paper

Just through an accident of video, when it took it out, it DID look like paper. You can't help it if people find that interesting. THat is just human nature.

[ScreamingMeemie]

15. Why would Kerry pull out a cheat sheat right in front of the cameras,

Jim, George and everyone? I mean...come on. It was crazy to even buy the cheat line.

13. fucking Drudge

All it would have took was a 10-minute phone call to one of his right wing buddies at Faux News to get one of their feeds. Instead he posts this bullshit and wastes everyone's time.
