AP NEWS SHOWING IT BIASED we need to hit this mistake hard
http://apnews.myway.com//article/20041030/D861UPLO0.html

"Throughout the battlegrounds, Kerry's mostly paid-army of organizers were pitted against Bush's largely volunteer-driven team to get supporters to the polls Tuesday. "

1. Bush's volunteers are not getting people to the polls they are keeping
them from voting. These asshole lazy ass reporters are getting on my fucking last nerve.

2. Who's getting paid?
I may want to borrow money from them. Nobody here in Scott County, Iowa is getting paid. Sounds like AP is inventing things out of thin air.

Bush Fights to Keep Emotions in Check

RON FOURNIER

Associated Press

WASHINGTON - President Bush smirked and winked and chuckled to himself. He jumped from his stool, chopped at the air and interrupted the debate moderator. As he fought to keep his emotions in check in a testy, personal debate with Sen. John Kerry, the president asserted, "That answer almost made me scowl."

10. Huh?
The information I have is that it is the other way around:

Volunteer Opportunities:

1. Poll Watchers Training - Our last training session will be Thur at 7pm at the Northshore office.

2. Our last neighborhood canvass will be Saturday, Oct. 30 @ Mt. Olive
Church on the corner of Dandridge & Martin Luther King. Today (Wed., Oct.27) the Sentinel ran an article stating that the republicans are expecting 400-500 canvassers for their last push. Of course, they are paying those volunteers $50. We have confirmation from the local media that they WILL BE COVERING BOTH CANVASS EVENTS. We need to have a BIG BIG crowd to show that we have the heart to get out and work for our candidate because we believe in the KERRY/EDWARDS team WITHOUT being paid!!!!!! WE ARE THE REAL DEAL!!!!! For more info, email ljean172002@yahoo.com.

3. Visibility for Kerry - Saturday (10/30) we need folks to hold signs for Kerry at busy intersections. Meet at the Northshore office at 10:30am. We'll also do sign holding at the Magnolia Ave Office at 2:30pm.

4. Sign distribution, Sunday 5pm - 5:30pm - Kerry/Edwards sign deployment - We need 20 folks to put signs up around the county. The office will be opening at 3pm w/ a cookout and special phone banking.

11. Fournier & Pickler
What do you expect? Honesty?

Remember the names and then ignore. They aren't going to change.
