Claims that Kerry ran a Bush/South Carolina smear against Dean are false.

[DJcairo]

Where is the proof? In 2000, there was actually a group that was loosely affiliated with the Bush campaign that admitted making the calls. In NH and IA there was no such evidence, except for the claims be Dean supporters. Please stop spreading lies about Kerry. He won out of determination and hard work. He was written off weeks ago and if there was an "anti-Dean" movement is was for Clark not Kerry. He's bested both so far and he deserves credit for an honest effort. Repeating a lie, like the Bush administration, seesk only to confuse and ignore the real issues.

1. Let me guess....someone is going to link to the story...

That says that one campaign worker was found to have placed an inappropriate call, and that person was fired. But that someone else had suspicions that there were others.

And that will stand as irefutable proof.

The number of times I've seen that linked in response to a request for proof of this is staggering.

4. You mean the one they caught on film?

The one where they actually filmed the phone call where the Kerry supporter called and spread disinformation about Dean? And then they tried to talk to the kid's supervisor and were mocked until they finally got somebody high enough to take them seriously, found it was true and then deny it was coordinated by the campaign? Yeah, I guess film doesn't cut it as proof these days.

Or do you mean the computerized calls from the Kerry campaign to the Dean campaign to tie up the lines? Or maybe the stolen call list used to robo call Dean supporters at 4am in New Hampshire? Oh, that's right. The Kerry campaign denied those happened, and that's enough "proof" for you.

Since I'm fairly certain that your standards of "proof" require that Kerry actually be forced to admit to engaging in these dirty tricks, I have no doubt that you will continue to dismiss any actual evidence that comes to light as insufficient. Perhaps on February 1st, when the sources of funding of that organization that paid for the Dean/bin Laden ads is revealed, you'll finally get the proof you so crave.

Or maybe you'll find a way to deny it again.

2. Kerry & the Iraq war...

"Repeating a lie, like the Bush administration, seesk only to confuse and ignore the real issues." sorry Kerry's not for me & the phrase I just used in quotations fits Kerry to a tee! Kerry goes which ever way the wind blows!

Amen.

5. Kerry is No Profile In Courage

He sent anti Clark and Dean flyers to NH voters while saying in Iowa that people should be positive. He smeared Clark after saying he would never say anything critical of Clark - his friend Clark.
