Bob Kerrey to John Kerry: "Don't litigate if the election is too close...let Bush be President"
Larry King Live | 11/02/04

Posted on 11/01/2004 11:49:03 PM PST by njsketch

Bob Kerrey, on Larry King Live:

KERREY: Well, I hope Marc's right. I hope it doesn't happen but my guess is and I don't have any influence over John Kerry and the DNC. My advice to him would be not to litigate.

KING: Not to litigate?

KERREY: Not to litigate. I mean, look, you've got an exceptionally difficult period in the history of mankind. I disagree with Marc on why it's troubled times. I think it's part troubled because of the way the Iraq War has been conducted but it is a troubled time, a difficult time and not to have a president of the United States inaugurated and a peaceful transition one way or the other (UNINTELLIGIBLE). …

But I would prefer that I mean if it's a close -- if it's close and there's an opportunity to litigate, I would say to John Kerry don't litigate. Let Bush be the president.

A weasle (Or in this case a Rat) jumping the sinking ship?

May it be so. If John Kerry chose not to litigate a close election, he would show more dignity and honor than I have ever yet seen him display.. exponentially.

Kerry has absolutely no concept of honor. He'll pitch an unholy fit when he loses. And you can bet your bottom dollar that Kerry and his ilk will sue. That's just how the Democrats work. When they don't get their way, they use the judiciary as their own personal special interest trump card.

Could it be that he also doesn't want Bush to litigate the massive dim fraud?

I think KerrEy is one confused guy. His SEAL service sets him above many people in terms of partiotism, willingness to serve and not take the easy route (Gore the typist). I suspect he came back to become a Demo in the Scoop Jackson or Sam Nunn tradition. A hawk on defense, and liberal on social issues. A reasonable position. I suspect he morphed, as the party morphed. It dragged him with it. Maybe some of the old steel that makes a SEAL still exists.

That is what I was thinking. You noticed he said he has no influence over him.

John Kerry is a lot of things, but a SEAL is not one of them, IIRC.

This is just common sense. It only hurts this country, our very democracy, to belittle it with useless and venemous lawsuits. No one likes to lose, but there's a point it become ridiculous and embarassing. If we are the beacon of the free world, we need to start respecting the very institution which has made us who we are.

We have them, too. They've been in place since at least Saturday.

Sounds as if Bob Kerrey expects Lurch to lose. I think the Rats should take his advice. Because the courts are going to break it off in their @$$.

It's because he knows Kerry will destroy and bring down the whole Democrat Party if he pulls the crap he's been threatening
