1. Quoting a Fox story not much better than empty charges in my book

3. If This is About Kerry Push-Polling

ABC has it too; I think they might even have been the first ones on it.

On edit: the ABC story has a Jan. 17th date. Fox was late.

7. Looks like the fox story was late because they went and talked to the kid.

This is very telling... not only was the guy making the calls attacking Dean, but his supervisor was doing the same.



Astley said Thomas called Dean an "environmental racist." At this point she is heard on the tape saying "Does Senator Kerry know you are saying these things?" She then asked to speak to his supervisor.

Astley said supervisor "Derek" accused her of lying about the tone of her conversation with Thomas. When Astley challenged him on the "environmental racist" remark, she said Derek complained that Dean supporters "just don't seem to care about the facts."

Thomas does not deny his call or dispute Astley's description of how his supervisor participated.

...

But Thomas said he would have handled the call differently had he known who Astley was. "I had no idea she was a volunteer coordinator for Dean, If I had I would have hung up right away," he said.

5. How about ABC?

Caught on Tape

But two nights ago, Cornell College psychology professor Suzette Astley, a Dean volunteer in Lisbon, Iowa, received a phone call from a Kerry's Cedar Rapids headquarters — in which, she says, a Kerry volunteer had some less than kind things to say about Dean regarding his foreign policy experience, being from a largely white state, and so-called "environmental racism."

Since a documentary filmmaker was staying with Astley, the exchange, which has been confirmed by the Kerry campaign, was caught on videotape.

"Does your candidate know that you're saying these kinds of things, unsubstantiated claims on the phone representing Sen. Kerry?" Astley asked 19-year-old volunteer, Jacob Thomas, on the tape, a copy of which was obtained by ABCNEWS.

8. Volunteer was let go, this is old news

D is not without mistakes made by volunteers...Newsweek reported that a volunteer had called Iowa SoS inquiring about volunteers registering to vote in Iowa. Volunteers make mistakes...the candidate corrects it. D is not perfect either.
