Kerry is Coming!! (California)

Posted on 04/30/2004 7:44:41 PM PDT by markv840

Kerry is comming to California, and I'm hoping to get some CA FReepers to join me. I have no concrete information yet (just the dates, not exact locations), I'm just trying to find out how many people would like to do this.

Kerry will be visiting the Golden state on wednesday, may 5 and thursday May 6; While the location is still unknown, the information will be provably on his website in a couple of days. I think we should FReep him, any one up for it? A fellow freeper and me were trying to figure out some poster ideas, and we came up with this: how about we buy a bunch of flip/flops,I believe they sell them at the 99¢ store(50¢ a Flip flop!, it doesn't get any better than that). We could stick these on posters and stuff like that. It would be funny as hell.

If we decide to FReep him, I'll keep you posted on the exact locations.

Well, the last time he was here, for a speech to UCSD, he held two fundraisers that were hosted by the owner of the Albertsons' chain. I even heard that he spent the night at this guy's mansion. Here is a quote from the Spectator:

...the two high-wattage events were in San Diego and L.A., where supermarket magnate Ron Burkle opened two of his homes for Kerry cash-a-thons...

Here is a link, http://www.spectator.org/dsp_article.asp?art_id=6367 but you can find more if you google Kerry and Burkle.

Dubya's people need to put out an ad in California specifically targeting the union grocery workers. Something along the lines of clips of him appearing in front of striking workers, supporting them in their fight against management, especially if they can find one in front of an Albertsons, then show him hob-nobing and taking $$ from the grocery store owners.

Since I can't make it down, can you ask him a couple of questions:

- Why is he so rude to fellow Americans?
- Why is he full of respect to-ward's Europeans?
- Why does he want to let more Americans die?
- For who do you want to be President?

Appeasement only brings WAR!

Anyone see the pic of Ta-Ray-Za on the latest version of Newsweak?

I've got your picture of me and you
You wrote "I love you" I love you too
I sit there staring and there's nothing else to do
Oh it's in color
Your hair is brown
Your eyes are hazel
And soft as clouds
I often kiss you when there's no one else around

I've got your picture, I've got your picture
I'd like a million of you over myself
I asked the doctor to take your picture
So I can look at you from inside as well
You've got me turning up and turning down
and turning in and turning 'round

I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so

I've got your picture, I've got your picture
I'd like a million of you over myself
I asked the doctor to take your picture
So I can look at you from inside as well
You've got me turning up and turning down
and turning in and turning 'round

I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so

No sex, no drugs, no wine, no women
No fun, no sin, no you, no wonder it's dark
Everyone around me is a total stranger
Everyone avoids me like a psyched lone-ranger
Everyone

That's why I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so...

Time to Go Back on the Offensive -- Immediately!

Time to Go Back on the Offensive -- Immediately!

The Democrat strategy is clear -- keep the focus off Kerry for as long as possible; keep Kerry under the radar and out of the view of voters for as long as possible.  That's what all the Richard Clarke, 9/11 Commission, Condi Rice garbage is all about.  And we have to stop it now...

-- snip --

The only way to win is to set the agenda.  The spotlight must be re-focused on Kerry as soon as possible.  We need to stop letting ourselves get distracted... - jmstein7

I [RonDog] should have a giant version of THIS sign back from the printer soon:

Considering that he's written off the South, California is going to get plenty of Kerry visits along with other important electoral states.

Not sure if Kerry will be coming to NORTHERN California ths time around, but he is VERY vulnerable to the kind of attack - already underway (all across the USA) - HERE:

Sandal whappers serenade Kerry

Sandal whappers serenade Kerry


Reporter's Notebook

By Gregory Korte and Cindi Andrews
The Cincinnati Enquirer

John Kerry had seen the tactic before - it emerged on the campaign trail last week - but few others seemed to understand what was going on.

Young Republicans wearing cheap sandals got in the front row and started clapping them together almost as soon as the Democratic presidential candidate took the stage at Sawyer Point on Tuesday.

Their message: that Kerry has flip-flopped on the issues...

Pathetic Kerry Condemns "Rude" GOP Protestors
April 7, 2004

-- snip --
Kerry's playbook is so old and he is so dishonest, it can be infuriating. But there's a simple way to listen to liberals without tearing your hair out, and that is this: everything liberals accuse Bush of, is what they do themselves. So when Kerry talks about the politics of lying, he's telling us what Democrats do. He's identifying his own tactics. As an example, consider Kerry's freak-out at a group of protestors waving flip-flop sandals at Kerry's Cincinnati speech.

As you can hear in the audio link below, this man who protested the Vietnam War and whose party has defined patriotism as requiring dissent, grumbled, "Obviously some young Republicans proving that they are very rude and they have no manners." Oh, the power, my friends! I am paralyzed here with how impressed I am by his retort. Why, what a way to shut them down! Not only calling them "rude" but "very rude!" This is so pathetic!

Chadworth worked the crowd with his famous layered message board.

He also provided our rally with a HUGE pair of flip-flops to let the Kerry crowd know what to expect from their candidate in the future...

That would be THESE wonderful images:
