Evidenced that the crying girl was staged (a summary) (DU Barf Alert)

DU | 9/17/04

[Dan from Michigan]

I don't think it's a stunt.

I think the DU'ers and the like are doing damage control.

[Scenic Sounds]

I'm not willing to discount the photo. I think the guy clearly likes to stir things up, and he probably shouldn't take his daughter to an opposition rally, but this is supposed to be a free country, and a civilized one.

Any way one looks at this, for one reason or another, the little girl is a victim here. It's the culprit side of the equation that still remains a bit fuzzy. LOL.

Crazy year! And, it's still just September!! ;-)

[aruanan]

Don't see any resembalance whatsoever.

If there's any resemblance, it's between the union guy and the guy in the gray sweatshirt. But isn't this guy in the sweatshirt in the military?

[DouglasKC]

Whether or not the photo was a set-up is not the real issue. I understand certain partison political operatives are claiming the photo was staged, but no one has come forward to challenge the thrust of the story. John Kerry should have to answer the serious questions the photo raises.

lol...you are indeed correct sir. In addition, the incident in question isn't dependent upon the photo. I've talked to many credible witnesses who will confirm that indeed Kerry supporters will rip signs out of the hands of protestors. I've taken pictures of this happening before. This picture isn't one of them, but it certainly captures the sentiment of what happens.

[Dan from Michigan]

Two of them are in the national guard.

And I don't think it's the same guy. The union puke looks older(I'd say about 25 or so - my age).

[inkling]

If a Kerry thug picked on a 3-year-old, he's a dirtbag. If a Republican "forged" a news event and got his kids to participate in the deception, he's a disgusting father and a revolting human being. I don't want him associated with my party.

And that is the difference between conservatives and liberals. When one of theirs perpetrates a fraud, they circle the wagons. When one of ours does, we reject him harshly.

When the photo first came out, DU-ers overwhelmingly believed it and immediately blamed the dad for daring to exercising his freedom of speech. Some even mocked the little girl. Almost no harsh words were given concerning the alleged union thug.

[Stellar Dendrite]

You guys are WRONG about this being a 'hoax'.
First of all look at the girl, if it was her brother she wouldnt be crying. If it was her brother, the 10 y/o son WOULD NOT BE CLENCHING HIS FISTS.

the man said on radio today that it is NOT his son.

finally:
"apology from pres of union"

Rather's take: it isn't whether this incident is authentic, it's whether the actions in this incident represent DNC thuggery?

"...One time Kerry was ordered to destroy a Viet Cong village
but disobeyed orders and suggested that the Navy Command
simply send in a Psychological Warfare team to be
friend the villagers with food, hospital supplies,
and better educational facilities."

No comment until further updates provided. Gee I wish the lefties would pounce on the CBS with such glee.

[aruanan]

And I don't think it's the same guy. The union puke looks older(I'd say about 25 or so - my age).

He looks a bit older. But the gray sweatshirt son has an underbite like the union guy.

To all:

I've already been on another thread defending my family and the legitimacy of this photo and the story that goes with it. In the picture of our family on the truck, I'm the one driving it. I'm the oldest and I feel compelled to defend my family. Many people have already said they don't believe I'm Sophia's sister. That's understandable considering how many whackos there are out there, but I am Sophia and Alex's sister. The picture is legit. THERE IS NO RESEMBLANCE BETWEEN THE THUG AND MY BROTHER. I will try to see if Dad will post a better family pic somewhere on here so you can all see for yourselves that the Democrats are ashamed of the union man but are trying to play it off as if it was staged. It is sad that they can't just say they're sorry for the actions of one or two thugs and move on. Instead they twist it around to shame my father and discredit our family. SHAME ON THEM!!! My sister is THREE YEARS OLD!!! How many kids that old can cry on cue????? She is one of the best-natured kids there are and she hardly ever cries. I just wanted to get on here and clarify that the picture is legit. The Democrats are just ashamed at what happened and are trying to put the blame elsewhere. Well, let me tell you what.... THAT THUG HAD NO RIGHT TO TEAR HER SIGN AND ANTAGONIZE MY FAMILY!!! HOW DARE HE MAKE HER CRY!!!! I just wished I could have been there. Dad is a better person than I and put her safety before revenge. He did not take any violent actions against the man. I'm not so sure I would have been able to be so patient.

Kerry Supporters Tear Up Bush-Cheney Sign, Make Little Girl Cry
	Posted by spiderman9 to truecons On News/Activism 09/16/2004 11:38:21 PM PDT · 1,236 of 1,592 Little girl's brother- -- snip -- What all you Freepers (I learned a new word today!) can do for my family is to show the same kind of support for our president, maybe attend Kerry/Edwards rallies yourself... showing the same kind of respect, perserverence, and steadfast resolve that we have tried to show. Please bring good credit upon yourselves and our president. BTW I will give Sophia big hug tomorrow for all of you. She is a cutie. Thank you. hmm, "Thank you" is what President Bush said to Sophia when she gave him a hug at the Bush rally last Friday. Post Reply | Private Reply | To 1,225 | View Replies

	Posted by spiderman9 to RonDog On News/Activism 09/16/2004 10:55:56 PM PDT · 1,195 of 1,592 little girl's big brother- Dame Autour, yes, i am Philip, II BTW we got the plate number of the guy who threw the torn sign pieces at us and called him in to the littering hotline. Although my dad was distraught with those taking and ripping up signs, he continued to endure and show restraint- we weren't there to cause trouble, rather, we were there show the dedication of Bush supporters.

	Posted by spiderman9 to DameAutour On News/Activism 09/16/2004 10:36:58 PM PDT · 1,159 of 1,592 Little girl's brother- Yes, Sophia is ok, but a little confused because "the people changed and got mean" as soon as she held up her sign. We were at the visit in the hopes of winning the people who are unsure and reassuring those who support President Bush. Among those supporters, much to my surprise and delight, were one of the drivers for the Edwards motorcade (who honked and gave a thumbs up after dropping off Edwards) and some police from both WV and Ohio.

	Posted by spiderman9 to spiderman9 On News/Activism 09/16/2004 10:15:28 PM PDT · 1,115 of 1,592 Little girl's big brother, again- Thank you for sending this to Drudge Report, and for all of the support. I was at the Edwards visit to the tri-state airport in Kenova, WV (near Huntington). I was not up front with my dad and siblings, but at the entrance to the airport, silently greeting airport traffic, as well as Sen. Edwards with a homemade Bush sign and U.S. and West Virginia flags.

I have read many of your posts, and am dying to answer your questions you have had. For starters, someone did their homework, and, yes, you have the right Phil Parlock. Father of 10, participated in Junior Achievement, NAACP, 4 time candidate for Board of Education, 2 children in the National Guard, of which I am one. Yes, the little boy is the little girl's and my brother, upset with the IUPAT guy.

[O.C. - Old Cracker]

Sounds like you work for the DNC. Aren't they paying you enough?

[lowbridge]

sorry...i'm new to this..i didn't mean to post it twice...but at least it reiterates what i was trying to say...

Quite alright. I loved hearing what you say :-)

[big_sis_10]

Yes, that's my brother. I already read all of his messages. I thought I should get on another thread and clarify things here.

[RonDog]

I meant no disrespect.

I was just helping you to spread the truth - by sharing your words with others here. :o)

What an AMAZING family you have!

Besides Glenn Beck and Michelle Malkin, who ELSE - in the media - has your father talked with?

[RandallFlagg]

HEY, Lady! How are ya?

I hope you and the family are holding up well.

I was on the BIG thread all night last night about this subject.

I'm working graveyard again tonight and will keep an eye on here for anything else (when I'm not busy, "Working."--*snicker*--)

Again, please give that darling little Sister, Brother and Father of yours a big hug!

Take care!
