It's not a coincidence - all the pieces are coming together...
- The Michael Moore letter
- MoveOn's email
- Kerry's email
- Conyers, Boxer, etc...

It's all about timing, and 1/6/2005 is the date.

I just hope I am right :-)

1. They did keep it quiet, didn't they?
It will be interesting to see what happens tomorrow.

6. That was the only way to do it
in some other threads there have been calls for more...dramatic action. To me, this would mean instant destruction at the hands of the SCLM. If Rove and Co. had ANY notion this was going to happen, the natterers in the media would have discredited it long ago. ("Well, John Kerry can't bow to the will of the people and has had his head turned by ambition and convenient conspiracy theories and some say he was sniffing glue before his statement, etc") Does this style sound familiar? Anyone who thinks otherwise has learned nothing about the way these people operate. Silence and cunning, gang. If you want to put on a performance, go on "American Idol."

8. It will be interesting.
Now let's hope that the MSM does their job and reports it. <sarcasm off>

14. When it comes, it will be like the sunami
they will try to ignore it until it is not longer possible to ignore. Then they will figure out how to make money from it.

19. "then they will figure how to make $ from it" - Sad but True
I flicked on CNN yesterday and was totally apalled by the HUGE
TSUNAMI
written at the bottom of the screen.

Sometimes life is stronger than parody.

3. all along, some things have not made sense
there obviously has been something going on that hasn't been explained to us completely.

it's just too weird that there's been so much grassroots support for the election fraud problems, but certain key players have been skirting the issue, almost with a smirk on their face.

hopefully we'll find out why tomorrow

4. I noticed the same thing
In fact, when I didn't read that Teflon Kerry article that wasn't posted on DU, I thought, "This is the first explanation that offers a possible reason for Moore and MoveOn to be so quiet."

I totally agree with you. Including when you said, "I hope I'm right."

it's better to have hoped and lost, than to have no hope at all.

I've had too much political heartbreak lately, and the other side is too evil. I want, but I don't hope.

18. I knew MoveOn has a petition but I don't believe they sent out
anything specifically on Jan 6 and contesting the Ohio votes.

Did you?

21. Alot of us theorized that this was their strategy. There were too
many dems that remained silent, too many organizations that were "abnormally quiet".

27. For each senator standing up, there will be five minutes of "debate"..
My guess...5 minutes of speaking...and an overwhelming vote against the investigation.

Gonzales hearing wall-to-wall coverage tomorrow night.

23. You are right
Think about it - why did Kerry send out something TODAY? Why not yesterday or two weeks ago or a month ago?

Why ask us to make calls and then log in that we've done so?

Why did MM choose to send a letter out this week?

Conyers, Boxer - it is all starting to add up.

:bounce: for grassroot movements!!

Keep the faith!! We Will Not Stop Until The Truth Rocks Our Country!

We are all a part of and are now witnessing a movement of

HISTORIC PROPORTIONS!!! Be proud that your voices have been loud, steady and determined! I believe that hope and lots of hard work has made many people in our democracy stand up and fight for what is right!
THIS IS OUR COUNTRY!!! NOONE WILL FIGHT FOR IT IF WE DO NOT!!! I will never stop fighting for truth and justice. I will fight until I draw my last breath if I have to...I believe in modeling behavior that the young adults in our country will aspire to! They are watching all of us closely right now...lets be role models that embrace honor, integrity and courage! There are good people in this country that are willing to stand up --protect and defend our constitution!

"In a time of universal deceit telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act."-Orwell
