Oh, I forgot about that...but I didn't see anybody looking like they needed to be dabbed, either.
The bottom line is, they weren't supposed to bring ANYTHING with them - to prevent just this sort of thing.
This lying bastard (sorry - I try not to do that, but I am extraordinarily ANGRY) cheated. I'm convinced of it. He was TOO slick to have pulled this off on his own. A guy who can't get "Lambeau Field" right does not rattle off numbers the way he did without having them in front of him.
I watched several of the videos and checked out the still frames. I couldn't tell. Need someone to blow it up and clean it up to be sure.
Definitely, he took something out of his suit coat pocket!
Cheat sheet? Probably -- don't think it would have been his birth certificate or his visa.
KEEP FREEPING IT!
Of course the 'rats are going to say we're poor losers, expect that, the point is, this is video, you stop it, enlarge it, clear up the picture, etc., and it is what it is--nothing to be brought to the podium. Kerry is on enough shakey ground relative to his "truth", and this is very important to pursue, especially since Lehrer is looking right at Kerry while he is fumbling with his paper! That needs to be brought to attention just as much as the actual paper.
Take a look at this! Did Kerry have a cheat sheet like many of us have been saying for four days now??!!
It speaks to President Bush's dignity and sportsmanship that he didn't say anything about this.
Meant to ping you over: When pressed on the fact that even brandishing a pen from his jacket would have violated debate rules, the Kerry staffer laughed, adding, "see you at the inauguration, Drudge".
Add to the initial news post please.
Or the green card that he got when he immigrated here from France.
From watching it on VCR, I'll have to agree with crazieman that he took piece of paper out ,then unfolded it ,then uncapped pen.
"The next debates MUST have tight zooms on the Candidates from many angles if they aren't allowed to bring notes."
Or just tie Kerry's hands behind his back until he gets to the podium and starts talking.
But now we know why he was po'ed and/or disgusted.
The thing is, it does not matter even if the paper was blank.
It was STILL a violation of the rules to bring any paper.
I hope you're NOT serious? HE CHEATED! BIG TIME!! Although the damage has been done to Bush...all we can do is make this big news so that public knows what a lying cheating slimey typical democrat snake this man is.....
I taped the debate and Kerry slickly took something from his pocket. It is absolutely clear that after he waved to the audience and as he was turning his back to the audience to take his place behind the podium, he slipped his hand inside his breast pocket and smoothly (and practiced) took something out and placed it on his podium.
It was really slick. What he didn't expect was a camera behind him that caught him with his back to the crowd and taking something from his pocket. IT IS ABSOLUTELY CLEAR FOR ALL TO SEE.
The Prez gave the last statement at the end of the debate and the camera (FOX) was off Kerry, so I couldn't see what he did with the paper at the end.
As I recall, before the debate, there was talk about the Kerry Kamp being unhappy with the agreed to rules, particularly, the timimg lights. There was talk of the lights being forcibly removed. They apparently couldn't get away with that, but they were determined to cheat somehow just out of spite. Hence, Kerry's notes.
BURMA SHAVE

Poster at 561 says on Fox news and they say it is a piece of paper.
How about having the security staff search The Fraudman next time?
