Kerry Performs Temporal Miracle
Checking around the liberal blogosphere I've "learned" that Kerry is wrong because he waited too long to announce his filibuster plans.

I've also "learned" that Kerry has no sense for politics since he foolishly tipped his hand in making this public too soon.

Kerry is simultaneously too early and too late. I wouldn't have though this was possible. :)

1. I only peaked into Randi Rhodes message board...
It was pretty pathetic.
A few there are really fighting like we are, and the rest
are cracking jokes. Maybe they should go work for Puffy McMoonface.

4. Are you sure those who are joking are not Rebub freepers?
Those that joke are stupid and miss the point and the long term benefits of this move. It was never just about winning. We all know if is an uphill fight, it was to take a stand,demonstrate a backbone and be heard. It was about principle and doing and fighting for what is right.
What sorry wastes they are- really pathetic.

The above and possibly they are jealous because it is JK taking the lead and not their candidate.

5. As much as I love Randi -
Alot of the people that hang out on her forum
are the type that never see anything positive about anything the dems are doing.
I had to leave. Hard to have a decent conversation.

2. I think it was his participation in Skull & Bones
that earned him special time/space continuum privileges.

8. Schyeah, really. Plus, you know those Forbes family descendants.
Society gives those elitists all the breaks. I heard that Kerry participates in special black magic rituals four times a year to keep his Satanic powers up. PLUS, he eats babies. BABIES!!!

9. Black magic? That must have been what he was
doing in Switzerland.

10. Yeah, well, the Swiss are in on it, too.

Our government has sold us out to the UN and they do all their dirty deals to undermine True Liberty through Zurich, but also...uh, that city Kerry's in. I don't know the name, but it's a major liberal terrorist command center, let me tell you.

3. Is there no positive feedback on this move by Kerry?
Why just focus on the negative? Is this the major consensus? If it is it is absolutely pathetic and they must be following along with the media smear campaign- courtesy of the White House and Rove.

6. There is also positive feedback
I just couldn't resist commenting on this negative feedback considering how contridictory it is, and how it shows that with some people Kerry is never right.

13. We've had a lot of great feedback
Many more new people have showed up on the Dem Daily in the past two days showering JK with thanks. Only a couple of fools there.

7. I think Kerry's been planning this for a while because
of his petition he's been having for a good while now (I believe this is the second week?). Remember in politics timing is everything.

11. Planning since 2003?
He's on record at least as far back as 2003 in saying he would filibuster a nominee who threatened Row v. Wade.

14. Or maybe...
... not "planning", but actually meaning what he said in 03, and being the very opposite of a flip-flopper. Actually meaning and BELIEVING in what he said, and that things that are truly important are worth fighting for, even when the chances of wining are razor thin.

16. He's also in two places at once
He was supposedly skiing in Davos while giving a speech on the Senate floor. Yep, he's just ripped a hole in the space-time continuum. :eyes:

17. Ooh, I saw a thread last night lambasting him for
calling for a filibuster from Davos while skiing. :eyes: Needless to say, the poster was corrected within seconds!

18. Such talent from one Senator
The current pResident* can't even eat pretzels and remain conscience, yet John Kerry can go skiing (ha!) halfway around the world, while at the same time, delivering a speech in D.C. This ability to be in two places at once should be applauded by all! Mutli-tasking at its finest is what it is!

19. The fact that the Powers-that-Be still try so hard to bash JK...even
when he's just doing his job...seems to show he's still a real Contender...despite all their complaints.

What was that Bard quote? "Me thinks ye protesteth too much."
