Reply #17: You are taking Counterpunch at face value

Note that Mass said this was not in Boston papers. It quite frankly may not have happened, there may have been a federal office that they were disturbing.

ALL the Senators know that single payer WILL NOT pass. Too many people want to be assured that they can keep their insurance - something incompatible with single payer. Kerry is one of 99 Senators not for single payer at this point. What is more relevant was that the Nation spoke of Kerry putting letters generated from Dean's appeal for a public option into the Finance committees hearing. That is where a real viable fight can be.

I watched the hearing and there was nothing I saw with Kerry saying that more police should be called in. The only Kerry comment I could make out was - rhetorically asking if anyone was there to hear the hearing. Unlike you, I have no idea what he thinking at any point in time.

Why attack the messenger:
1) Walsh has written untrue things in the past
2) Counterpunch stinks as a source
3) As I proved - and as Walsh could have found out too - it is physically impossible that John Kerry - who was at that point on a plane or speaking at meetings in Jordan to have called the police.

HIS ENTIRE STORY IS THAT KERRY CALLED OUT THE POLICE - and it did not happen.

Why are YOU defending
