The name says it all: Committee to Redefeat the President.

Kerry accused the Republicans of having a Republican Attack Squad, Hillary says its a Vast Right Wing Conspiracy, Is this the Left Wing Democrat Conspiracy Attack Squad? but seriously folks why is it that if two Republicans dont like Kerry its an attack squad but its ok for Democrats to bash Bush continuously.

In light of the reported tactics of DU in recent threads, and the fact that the co-founder of DU is involved in getting out the vote, the FEC needs to be made aware of tactics endorsed by that site.

And state/county election officials, too.

Destroying someone's absentee ballot is a FELONY in many states.

What can I say...this guy has it all! Clinton, Gore, Georgetown, Cornell, City of Evil (Ithaca), Europeans, FRENCH, globalists, etc. etc. Also, I think some of these groups are connected to Soros.

I guess the drive to "redefeat" Bush is the same as striving to have Bush become reelected despite "losing" again. Works for me.

They have reached a NEW LOW. Sidney Blumenthal was just on Fox News trashing Cheney. Get ready for the Clinton retreads.

Ahh... the Democrats. I have yet to hear them say anything they actually plan on doing if (God forbid) they win this year. All I hear them say is that they don't like Bush. Any movement defined by a negative will eventually collapse -- let's just hope it happens before November.

"I think you can ask questions in a certain way that doesn't necessarily show where you are," said the founding coordinator of the Washington Jewish Healing Network, Carol Hausman. "One of the questions I ask a lot is, 'if you did pray, what would you pray for?' It brings out just enormous numbers of things and that doesn't say 'I believe in prayer,' it doesn't say 'you ought to pray,'" Ms. Hausman said.

The conference, held at the headquarters of the UJA-Federation of New York, was co-sponsored by JACS-Jewish Alcoholics, Chemically Dependent Persons and Significant Others and the Association of Jewish Family and Children's Agencies.
