Did Kerry Cheat in the Debate?

Posted on 10/02/2004 12:51:42 PM PDT by SoCar

I read on another message board that right before Kerry took the podium he removed something from his pocket and set it in front of him. They are saying it looked like a piece of paper. If Kerry had a cheat sheet that would be a blatant violation of the rules and could sink him for good. If this is true I wonder if Bush perhaps saw this and it flustered him?

I am unable to view this because for some reason I can't get the C-Span video to play. It's 2 minutes into it.

BINGO!!! I believe I was the first one to point that out. I noticed it immediately when Kerry referred, with certainty, to a question coming up later in the debate.

I am new to this forum, probably not posting correctly, but I stopped by to ask for HELP. There are several threads on this topic so I am posting on each.


You all are correct, Kerry did pull a white piece of paper out of his pocket as he took the podium. I have one verification of it. Everyone has been studying Kerry's movements at the very beginning of the tape, from various networks and the internet. From the 'live' fox version of the debate, I have one verification that Kerry reached into his pocket a SECOND time, later in the debate, to take out that black pen.

I need HELP from anyone who has a taped version of the 'live' debate from Fox since I don't have it. Please watch your tape and find the exact time when Kerry reached into his pocket the second time to get his pen. It is very important for me to have a second or third verification of this from the 'live' Fox version (not any of the other network or internet versions).

I believe that the still photo came from a different fox camera angle than the cameral angle fed live of the debate on fox and I believe that the still shot is NOT from anywhere in the beginning of the tape, but from later on (@30 to 45 or more minutes, more or less) into the debate when Kerry got tired of using that white pen that was provided. Like I said, I have one verification of Kerry taking out the pen from his pocket later in the debate and need a 2nd or 3rd person to verify.

Please reply if you have been successful in finding this and thank you all for taking the time do so.

Kimberly
