Uh, excuse me Senator Kerry....if you're not using your millions for a
recount...would you be so kind as to give it to the groups that ARE fighting to see every vote count!

It just hit me this morning...seeing these groups ask for donations really pissed me off. Don't get me wrong, I've already donated twice and I'll probably give more. But millions of us donated to Kerry because he promised to FIGHT. Shouldn't he at least be good enough to help US now. It's largely OUR money he's got. Shouldn't we be able to demand that he give some if it up for vote counting audits.
:mad:

Part of me finds it impossible to believe that Kerry isn't fighting behind the scenes (smart war). We are after all at war with people who want to take our freedoms (and tax dollars). I mean, where are all our leaders?? These are NOT stupid people...Kerry, Dean, Gore, Clinton etc. They are ten times smarter than the smartest repugs. So I've decided that if it turns out that they are NOT behind the scenes fighting a smarter war, then they are in on this quest for oil. We need it, they got it....let the Repugs do the dirty work .
:-(

I'm so sick of feeling like a prisoner in my own country!

6. Very good idea. Everyone who donated money, email the DNC
and request your money back. Its the least you can do for yourself.

I know what you mean! Seems to me it's just a matter of time before we are all in the musselman state! Do they want to work people until they drop, get every penny they can squeeze out and then just bulldoze us into a ditch? Time will tell!

3. The Millions Belong to Teresa. . . .
Am not sure what the legal ramifications would be if she or he gave money to these groups. Somehow I doubt that it is allowed. But I am not a lawyer so I don't know.

As to Dean Kerry Gore Clinton on a quest for oil, that seems strange since Kerry has fought long and hard for the environment and has been pushing alternative energy for a long time too.

8. That's the one I really wonder about legally. . .

Can Kerry campaign legally donate money to a third party? maybe a DU lawyer could say.

4. Wasn't that his last flip-flop?
"Til every vote's counted", oh wait, "I concede this election...."

9. Not trying to defend Kerry
(especially since I think he's a useless bastard for not fighting)

but, can his campaign turn over that money to the groups that are fighting? There's so damn many rules and regulation all to try and keep the good guys from winning, I just wondered. Maybe someone here can clarify?
