WASHINGTON, Jan. 5 - The day before a joint session of Congress to certify the results of the 2004 presidential election, Senator John Kerry said Wednesday that he would not participate in a possible protest by Democrats who are challenging President Bush's victory in Ohio.

1. How about NO fuss from JFK. He's out of town.

2. Dead silence from the DLC/DNC

One might think they welcome another 4 years of tax cuts for the rich.

3. Yet again, another post asking you to call the congressional operator tmrw

I got a call from D.C., they said that Kerry had asked that the vote not be challenged, and that the right way to go about it was to push for election reform. This came from... Dr. Lora Chamberlain. (Dr. Lora Chamberlain [e-mail] http://www.illinoisprogressives.org ) She said it at the pre-rally. She did not hear the announcement herself, but this is what she heard. Another at the rally thinks she said something it being report on CNN? but didn't actually hear the announcement herself.

None the less, it's important to keep the pressure on them. If they certify it, nothing happens, if they don't, things might change. Most of the Senators seemed very reluctant to challenge the vote, keep pressure on them, we only need one to break.

The said to pass this message on:

Prior to this announcement, they had as many as 8 senators (including Reid, Clinton, Schumer, and Byrd) were seriously considering challenging the vote, let's make sure they do!

Call the congressional operator: 1-800-839-5276 between 8 AM and noon on January 6th. The vote is at one.

You can ask for any of the 44 Democratic senators. Ask to speak to their aid who deals with election fraud issues, and if the aid is not in, ask to leave a message and request it be delievered within the hour.

Tell them: This is not about Kerry anymore, this is about investigating and verifying the vote before it's ratified. Please stand up and challenge the vote, even though Kerry has asked the opposite.

What could it hurt to call your senators one last time?

9. You're the one making the assertion that there's a connection

YOU prove it.

As someone said here once, I believe S and B is a bunch of college kids playing fort. That's all.

Kerry wouldn't have gone after Poppy Bush if there was an inch of loyalty there.

Do you know thing one about who you're accusing, Mr. Chatroom Grammar? If you did, I think you'd realize just what an ass you look like every time you or anyone else makes this assertion.

11. Just to make it easy for you to understand ...

10. I love the ny times - oh yeah

the libRUL paper. they just love the dems. yup. this last paragraph says it all!

Such a debate could prove uncomfortable for Democrats, who do not want to be viewed as sore losers. But Republicans seemed eager for it.

"They are really just trying to stir up their loony left," John Feehery, a spokesman for Speaker J. Dennis Hastert, said of the Democrats.

the loony left. guess that be us! lol
