You remember that last Friday evening the President and the Senator were in their 2nd debate. In that debate, Kerry mentioned Christopher Reeve when discussing stem cell research. Sadly, Christopher Reeve died two days later, on Sunday October 10. The interesting thing is that Kerry told how Christopher Reeve called him after the debate and thanked him for keeping the stem cell research out front in the public. Yahoo News says, "Kerry said the last time he heard from Reeve was on Saturday, when the actor left a message on his cellphone, enthused by the Massachusetts senator's decision to raise stem-cell research in Friday's second presidential debate."2 So, according to Kerry, the called was prompted by the discussion in the Friday debate, right? But, WHO TV, from DesMoines, IA has the following "According to sources close to the actor, Reeve died Sunday. The actor fell into a coma on Thursday after going into cardiac arrest at his New York home."2 IF THE WHO-TV report is accurate that Reeve went into a coma on Thursday after suffering a cardiac arrest, how could Kerry receive a phone call from Christopher Reeves after the debate after the debate? Either the WHO story of when Reeve went into a coma is wrong, or Kerry has told a whopper of a story.

Already posted and debugged. That article is wrong. Statements from his family confirm he went into a coma Saturday night.
This thread keeps getting pulled, but it is really good analysis with great links for backup.
Debunked?
All mention of Christopher Reeve must be silenced!
yeah...it's late
MSNBC doing their best to nominate Reeve for sainthood right now.
I was switching channels, saw baba walters interviewing him, and of course he said stem cell research was being held back by politics..of course it was ABC
this makes us look like dopes, i hope it gets pulled sorry, I know your intentions are good in posting this thing
I'll ask again, How does a Des Moines TV station get the scoop on something that happened in New York?
This thread will self-destruct in tick, tick, tick..
Democrats love dancing around in the streets with their corpses for political advantage...Just like Paul Wellstone...Just like Islamofascists.
yep...post #13 was the clincher.
We have soldiers and Marines fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan, and one guy in a wheelchair who died surrounded by his family and friends gets all this press? Makes me want to puke. It's sad for his family, but there are folks dying everyday.
Exactly.. what kind of numbskull would post something like that? #13
EJECT EJECT EJECT
Maybe they'll have a Wellstone style memorial for him:
We will win! We will win...
If they carry on loadly enough they might raise the dead voters.
it's going now.
Man the lifeboats.. we're goin' down.
