Kerry betrayed us but we've got to fight for him anyway |
|
During the primaries, he promised repeatedly that in would not concede if this happened. HE LIED. He proved he's a flip-floper (on this one issue) and a coward and possibly a shill. However, we have to fight to get those votes counted and put him in the White House, because four more years of Bush will kill everyone on the planet.
If he doesn't want the job, perhaps we could embarrass him into resigning and letting Edwards take over. Everyone connected with Edwards was shocked at Kerry's concession and betrayal. I'm sure I'm not the only one who called and found his shocked staff trying to deal with Kerry's actions. I trust Edwards. Unfortunately, his family is suffering a tradegy right now and I'm sure he needs to focus on his wife.
Kerry was my second choice, behind Dennis. I realize now that I was wrong about Kerry's integrity and that he LIED to us. But, let's keep up the fight. The fight isn't about him. It's about saving America from Bush. It's a fight we can't afford to lose.

1. We don't know the things he and his people know. |
|
Until we do, if we ever do, it is grossly unfair to say this of the man.
We don't need this sort of thing right now.
I offer these words with the utmost respect.

4. He promised he wouldn't concede and he did. He's a liar. |
|
There is no excuse for this behavior. And I say this, knowing that I'm going to fight hard to put him into the White House, despite himself.

It's all too easy to play Monday morning QB, but unless a person is actually in his shoes, they just don't have any idea.
Let's wait and see what happens.

2. We don't know why he gave in at this point |
|
I have a hard time believing that 10,000 lawyers are just folding their tents and going home over Diebolt and voter suppressions. Let's just wait and see what happens there.

Kerry did the classy thing. Don't you think if there was even a remote chance he could have won in Ohio that he would have kept fighting on? Of course he would have. I know that your mad but don't take it out on Kerry, take it out on Bush or those that voted for him. We had a wonderful classy man with an unbelievable level of integrity and patriotism run for the office of the presidenty of the United States for our party and we should be proud of him.

5. He's willing to let your children die to look classy? What a creep. |

I'm angry and there is no justification for his cowardly action. He subjected us to a fate worse than Hitler because Bush plans to end all life on Earth. Haven't you checked out his Armageddon plan?

8. All I know is that we were told on election night that they would ensure |
|
that every vote would count.
The last news we got from Kerry's campaign election night was that the Red Sox owner offered his private plane for Kerry's lawyers to travel to Ohio. We heard no further information about the lawyers trip to Ohio. The next thing we knew, Kerry had conceded. What happened in between that time?
I do know that the thief-in-chief was in a rush to claim victory, regardless of how many votes were still uncounted. Did Kerry get a threatening phone call?
We all know how this administration operates. Don't blame Kerry -- something is amiss here.
