Freepers stumping for Kerry!
If these folks could just see themselves...Freepers are doing more to plug Kerry's run than us...

I can't count how many times someone has posted those snowboarding and sailboarding pictures on FR! Way more than at DU. Do they realize that the avarage American doesn't consider snowboarding to be a very sinister activity?

And they trumpet loudly his millitary record...but most people's eyes glaze over when trying to understand what's "wrong" with Kerry's record...all they hear is..."Kerry was in VietNam"...and again - hard to make that sound sinister...

They went nuts about the Polier non-story...nice to bleed a little energy out of the opposition!!!

Keep it up FreeRepublic - you are Kerry's best stumpers!!!

1. You know Freepers make good stumpers?
It's because they're about as smart as stumps to begin with. :evilgrin:

2. Ah, The True Believers. I understand now how Hitler took over
Germany. These are people who will fight to the bitter end. I mean, right now we have Republicans turning on *. And they attack these people instead of sitting down and reflecting on what they said, and why they said it.

They are such fools.

7. They are more than fools, they are assholes
ANd they are deluging the public with misrepresentations up the ying/yang. And I know certain people are falling for it. I have friends that are somewhat intelligent that think we are actually more secure since Bush has been in office@@@@ hahaha. I just can't seem to tell them that the last time I went overseas and the next time will be totally different things, where I could have had some sympathy because of 9/11 the first time, the next I am gonna have to brush up on my French and not wear my Bush Cheney T SHirt haha...oh that was really my Bush Cheney sanitary napkin, sorry...

3. because repug thugs thrive on misinformation
rumors, innuendo. Notice their approach to assassinate someone's character who dares to disagree with their philosophy. It bothers them to no end that a so called liberal from Massachusetts can be a war hero and their own dunce head president was but daddy's silver spoon recipient.

4. Kerry himself said it best
when he said "I'm tired of Republicans who never served in the military having a problem with and smearing us Democrats who DID serve in the military." I'm paraphrasing, but you get the picture. FUCKING CHICKENHAWK HYPOCRITES!

5. Kerry said that? I'd love to see it in print!
This must be recent. Never saw it before. That is as plain a refutation one can make.

6. Not only that, but they successfully made "Liberal" ...
an association to be ashamed of!! Sorry, am not too articulate here, was looking for a better way to express this...
Guess I just find myself just spluttering at the blatent crap these people have been (successfully) slinging.

Well, I'm Liberal and glad to be so!! I really don't care what connotations they try to attach to that label!

XXXOOO
And a TREE HUGGER, too!! NIce trees, baby!

We've got a lot of work to do to counteract their perfidy. Dont' underestimate the gulliblity of the general public

8. Limbaugh did that long ago...
But they are missing the mark on the Kerry thing...I think the are doing him a favor by posting all those snow/sailboard pictures and detailing his millitary record...

FREEPER DREAM : "OMG wait till the American people see him on snowboard...then they will know what a liberal so and so he is..."

The millitary stuff...you have to predisposed to hate Kerry to make any of it stick...I don't think the avarage person wants to wade through the details of Kerry's purple hearts looking for some smoking gun...Kerry served in VietNam - end of the story...
