He'll say anything to get elected
Fox News | 10/17/04

Posted on 10/17/2004 12:24:14 PM PDT by pabianice

Just ran a report from FL. Kerry is saturating the state with TV ads "quoting" Bush as saying he plans to cut Social Security benefits by 35% while he privatizes it. This is being run in conjunction with a NY Times hit piece making the same claim.

When Fox tracked-down the Times writer, he said that, well, he'd been told about the SS cuts "by a private Bush donor," and since there were "no other reporters there," they'd have to take this reporter's word for it.

"KERRY: HE'LL SAY ANYTHING TO GET ELECTED"

This is what we're up against, folks. Bald-faced lying by Kerry to win.

Not like this was surprise.

Scaring the kids (draft hoax) is failing.

Scaring the disabled ("crippled shall rise" hoax) a bust.

The usually loyal alternative lifestylers are increasing
confused about the Kerry posture.

The black community is coming to realize that the Dems
offer them nothing but continued dependency.

Time to frighten the elders.

Rush and Sean Hannity have been saying for weeks that the ultimate sign of terminal DemocRAT desperation is when they pull out the Social Security card and start running ads to scare Grandma into thinking the mean, ol' Republicans are gonna take away her social security checks.

Well, folks... it has officially begun... the DESPERATION is so palpable you need a chainsaw to cut thru it.

With two weeks to go it is officially SCARE GRANDMA time in the sinking ship known as the Dem Party.

Heard Kerry make that 35% cut in ss in front of some Florida seniors many weeks ago.

It needs to be DIRECTLY refuted by the president himself.

Why do they continue to do that? Because it works.

The rumor is that Kerry's summit to improve our capabilities of working with our allies is limited to Castro, Chavez and Arafat. It's scheduled for Jan 21, 2005

ABC radio in Florida is calling it Bush's January surprise and quoting Terry McAuliff.

Hopefully the GOP will slam this point home. He WILL say anything to get elected. The GOP should slam home the tactics, and reveal him for just what the Dem Team is, Snake Oil Salesmen!!!

If you'd talk to Vanessa Kerry... (who's alive)
she would probably say she's glad her father didn't have her destroyed
for stem cell research
when she was an embryo.

The next couple weeks will be interesting! I can't wait to see what the Demorat propaganda will be trying to feed to the voters. Anyone have any wild guesses?

Let me see if I have it right.

The NYTimes prints an article on Sunday saying Bush told a private meeting of rich supporters that he was going to dismantle social security. No names were given as the source of the quotes, nor of the time of the meeting, nor of the source of the meeting...

The same day, Kerry gives a major "sermon" at a church about this (turn around time to prepare a speech is usually a few days, but if it was big news, you could perhaps do it in a few hours).

However, the really suspicious part of all this is that tomorrow, the Democrats are going to start running TV ads about the wrecking of social security. Now, TV ads DO take time to prepare...COINCIDENCE?

Sound a lot like the Dan Rather memos, which were started on 60 minutestwo the day before the Dems released attack ads on the same subject...

I may be wrong: I'm too busy to follow these things, but anyone with the facts?

Time soon for the Bush campaign to make prudent use of the bully pulpit. He can call a press conference to tell people straight up, on National TV, that the Dims are so desperate to take him down, that they have orchestrated lies and attributed them to him re: draft, stem cell research, SS, etc., and set the record straight, point by point!

If lying, cheating, and stealing gets that Fraudulent Loser Dork-in-man's-clothing, I am gonna be one P#@%$D OFF Pubbie!

The Bush campaign hasn't rebutted a single KErry ad or Kerry lie this year. Why in the world do you think they would now?

Of all the attacks, this one ought to be the easiest to hit out of the park. After all sKerry voted to increase the taxes on Social Security earnings.
