2. They want to look at Kerry's legal history?
Edited on Sat Oct-23-04 12:50 PM by rocknation
Let's point out that Bush didn't QUALIFY for law school! And let's see how it compares to what Bush was doing at the same time!

24. True, the Univ. of Texas Law School wouldn't accept Junior
I loved how Kitty Kelley mentioned that in her book, too, by writing that B*sh family friends had sent letters of recommendation (not-so-subtle pressure, really) to UT for Junior. All they got in response was a letter from the Dean saying (and I'm paraphrasing), "He may make a good law student, BUT NOT HERE!" Bwahahahaha! :evilgrin:

3. I'm confused. . .I though Repuglicans hated lawyers
Now they love lawyers and Kerry is a bad lawyer?

At any rate, I did read this blog entry, and I am afraid that I am not impressed by it/

And if I beleived this Cyberguy 100% (which I don't) I can't see that this is gonna have much impact other than lulling people to sleep.

6. Who cares...with a week to go this is fluff stuff.
Not going to change any minds true or untrue. Only people that will hear it are the same brain dead people who listen to the RW talk shows. Doubt it will even be picked up by mainstream media.

9. The hate mongers are desperate
They now realize that any of the nonsense they spew forth in the next week has to be designed to keep the base in line. Fucking doggie biscuits would do that. The newsmax, worldnet daily crowd, I believe, realize their attempts to target educated Americans will not work. They exist because of the ignorant lemmings who blindly purchase their product and believe their propaganda. Too bad the dumbasses don't realize that right now, they still have a choice of what to purchase.

10. They can push anything they want
At this point except for the kool-aid drinking freeper types and the corporate media everyone considers this administration the lil boy who cried wolf. I think all the talk of the so called undecided voter are overblown by the media for one particular outcome. To show shrub still has a chance in this election even though he is hemorrhaging badly.

Also they can use this line of reasoning once the election is over to try and steal it back. As if this election was so close there was no way he could have been beaten so badly...it must be fraud on the Dems part.

11. HA HA They actually are trying to attack Kerry's GPA...
... although they have no evidence to back it up they are trying to say that he possibly wasn't a good student. I guess to the repukes lack of evidence is definitive proof. I wonder why they didn't mention *'s 2.5 GPA while at Yale.

They even try to say that Boston college is an inferior school, and a JD isn't an advanced degree. These people are too stupid to be taken seriously. Sadly, the same can be said for the majority of the American public.

30. Exactly what are they trying to prove? That Kerry is dumber than
Bush or something? Jesus, all you had to do was LISTEN to the two of them in the debates to have proven to you that Bush is a dope and Kerry is intelligent. If this is all they got, I ain't worried.

12. Did they link to Beldar?
Beldar's story is going nowhere. It's a complete nothing of a story.

15. What a crock of SHIT!!!
Wow, that's an impressive conviction rate, isn't it? Certainly it is! At least until you consider that they were, by definition, minor misdemeanors — probably traffic tickets, maybe littering — in which the defendants most likely didn't have lawyers.

Uhh...yeah. The defendants weren't even allowed to have a public defender. Kerry made sure of that. :boring:

17. I waited and worried....FOR THIS?!
If I can't understand what they're accusing him of, except that he says he was a better lawyer than they say he was...I just don't think this has legs.

Now I see why they keep lying about John Kerry, the truth just doesn't help their agenda.

22. He hasn't paid the fee to practice law in 8 years.
Ummm, so? Have Bush take his MBA exam again and see what comes out. I bet they'd strip his degree.

20. Boston College is a CATHOLIC law school. So Bushies attack Catholics now?
In addition, Kerry finished FIRST in his class at Yale.

27. That article is pathetic
If that's all they've got, they really ARE desperate.

No respectable news organization will pick up a story that is nothing more than the uncorroborated wishful thinking of a pathetic freeper.

Let's talk about bush's mandatory community service time with PULL instead.

28. What a bunch of shit.
If this '...from this, we can surmise...' and '...we can speculate...' garbage is not remotely damaging. If that's the best they have, I don't think there's much to worry about. Sounds a lot like 'he didn't bleed enough to get those medals.'

LOL!

Why don't they just get those swift boat liars to put on some suits and come back up as lawyers for truth ?

34. And their point IS...?
Do they really want to bring up what the candidates were doing in the 70s/80's?

This is one side, now tell me about the other.

Well,

I'm waiting...

I'm still waiting...
