Kerry Says Trickery Foiled Many Voters

BOSTON, April 10 (AP) - Many voters in last year's election were denied access to the polls through trickery and intimidation, Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts told a voters' group on Sunday.

"Last year, too many people were denied their right to vote; too many who tried to vote were intimidated," Mr. Kerry said at an event sponsored by the League of Women Voters of Massachusetts.

He cited examples of trickery. "Leaflets are handed out saying Democrats vote on Wednesday, Republicans vote on Tuesday," Mr. Kerry said. "People are told in telephone calls that if you've ever had a parking ticket, you're not allowed to vote."

Mr. Kerry, the Democratic presidential nominee, has never disputed the outcome of the election, saying voting irregularities did not involve enough votes to change the result.

The Republican National Committee dismissed Mr. Kerry's comments. "While President Bush and members of Congress are working to move our country forward, it's disappointing that some Democrats are focused on rehashing baseless allegations more than five months after the election," said a committee spokeswoman, Tracey Schmitt.

"How pathetic can he get?"

Is that a trick question?!
LOL

[scott7278]

I was thinking this was from the Onion...

[Lunatic Fringe]

Of course, at 4:00pm EST on election day, Lockhart and the other Democrat operatives were claiming "No Problems" with polling... when they thought they were winning...

[billybudd]

Republicans vote Tuesday, idiots vote Wednesday.

[RIGHT IN LAS VEGAS]

Kerry is a crackhead.

[MJY1288]

Same old song and dance, they simply don't get it

[TomGuy]

"Leaflets are handed out saying Democrats vote on Wednesday, Republicans vote on Tuesday," Mr. Kerry said.

psttt, John, if they are too stupid to know what day to vote on, they are probably too stupid to be voting anyway.

[RWR8189]

John who?

[Lorianne]

Isn't he saying that Democrats are easily tricked and isn't that kinda, well, insulting?

[neverdem]

From time to time, I’ll ping on noteworthy articles about politics, foreign and military affairs. FReepmail me if you want on or off my list.

[NutCrackerBoy]

What a maroon! Based on this gas attack of baseless allegations, will the public finally give John Kerry the finger he so richly deserves?!

Meanwhile, tires slashed election day on 20 GOP vans in Michigan - something that actually happened in verifiable physical reality - goes largely unreported.

But Kerry......what about the fraudulent Milwaukee voters who voted using assumed names multiple times?

[Smoote]

Vote Kerry for Pope!

[Petronski]

Seriously, is this real?

[John Lenin]

No John, you lost because Bush got more votes ...

[NRA2BFree]

"Last year, too many people were denied their right to vote; too many who tried to vote were intimidated," Mr. Kerry said

Yes, but Bush won anyway, you moron. He really needs to get over himself. I wish he'd get a life. Preferably in France.

[Atchafalaya]

I am stunned. Obviosly he and them ain't hit bottom yet.

[InvisibleChurch]

I guess his 10,000 lawyers ddidn't pick up on any of those shenanagins. How smart can THEY be?

[1FASTGLOCK45]

Did i hear foil?
Grab your Tin Foil Hats!

[goodnesswins]

Hey, Mr. Kerry.....if we REALLY looked into the fraud everywhere, I'll bet we'd find that Mr. Bush won by a WHOLE lot more than the Returns showed. Be careful what you ask for.....

[hineybona]

exactly what I was going to say .How DUMB can one person be to believe that ? Anyone that stupid dosent need to be voting.

As I sit here and read this story (with my mouth hanging open like a common DUnder-head) I can only think of one appropriate thing to say.

"UN-EFFING-BELIEVABLE"

[Bommer]

Only trickery asside from the rampid voter fraud, was the lying liberals polls that showed Kerry winning!

[spinestein]

I'm always interested when the dead are raised to vote in elections. Fascinated by felon's right to participate in deciding who will direct this republic

POST AT WILL!FIRE FOR EFFECT!

That is the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. My sides are splitting. LOL.

'He cited examples of trickery. "Leaflets are handed out saying Democrats vote on Wednesday, Republicans vote on Tuesday," Mr. Kerry said. "People are told in telephone calls that if you've ever had a parking ticket, you're not allowed to vote."'

Are you sure this didn't come from Scrappleface?

[TWohlford]

"if they are too stupid to know what day to vote on, they are probably too stupid to be voting anyway."

If they're too stupid to punch a hole all the way through a card, next to the picture of a jackass, does that make them "too stupid" too?

[FreeKeys]

But I don't want stupid people voting!
bumper sticker slogan:

STUPID?   DON'T VOTE !

[Goodgirlinred]

Either that, or he is what my late mother-in-law would have called "just plain cracked." Can't the guy just give up already? He never gives any specifics to any of these off the wall accusations. Where did these things happen and to whom? Why doesn't he just go wind surfing or something.

[Petronski]

It was a rhetorical question. But thanks. ;O)

[Fudd Fan]

Or as Cameron Diaz said, if you think rape should be legal then don't vote. (Could there be any more air in her head?)

[Jenya]

I think F'n has been dipping into Lovey's gin-soaked raisins.

[MikeHu]

My nomination to be the next Al Gore.

Whoever loses in 2008 will be the nominee as the next John Kerry.

"Kerry Says Trickery Foiled Many Voters"


Kerry is absolutely RIGHT about this..... but fortunately the majority of voters saw through his trickery and Bush won!!!

[Fudd Fan]

THAT is the line of the week (maybe the month!) Bravo.

[ZOOKER]

Hey John, is your refrigerator running?

[John Lenin]

[MediaMole]

Kerry must finally understand that he will never be President. Public bitterness is always unbecoming.

[Sender]

If you, like think that rape should be legal, and like, think that raping the planet should be legal, then you should vote for George Bush because he thinks that like raping stuff should be legal. Seriously.

[Smoote]

You mean it's not?

Signed,
Bill Clinton

>>He cited examples of trickery. "Leaflets are handed out saying Democrats vote on Wednesday, Republicans vote on Tuesday," Mr. Kerry said. "People are told in telephone calls that if you've ever had a parking ticket, you're not allowed to vote."

My favorite comedian, John Kerry, is at it again. Everyone knows elections are always on Tuesdays; even those who might not know get exposed to so many mentions of "the election coming up next Tuesday", etc., in TV, radio, and papers...etc. Only the extremely stupid would believe him. Only the extremely stupid would vote for him.

[Fudd Fan]

Apparently it's not for Bill. (Thanks Cameron)

[Goodgirlinred]

Pray tell, where did the Dummiecrats dig her up? She looks Asian. Why would President Bush want anyone's dentures? How absurd.

[Private_Sector_Does_It_Better]

THANKS!!!! :)
