I read this as "diet for Kerry." I guess I need better computer glasses.

Is it true you have less wrinkles when you laugh or smile than when you frown? Or did he have his forehead fixed again?

Thanks for all you're doing, RonDog!

Thanks for the kind words, Norm!

While I expect that doodlelady's version of IPWGOP's artwork will be the "star" of this FReep, I also still plan to wear my Saddam mask:

...and carry THIS sign:

ONLY

Kerry criticized for French connection [FReeper quoted]
Boston Globe ^ | 4/12/2004 | By Susan Milligan, Globe Staff
Posted on 04/12/2004 12:51:21 AM PDT by Jim Robinson

WASHINGTON -- As the presidential race gets tighter and nastier, the F-word has increasingly crept into attacks against presumptive Democratic nominee John F. Kerry.

It has made its way into comments by the House majority leader, onto Internet blogs, and onto the Republican National Committee's website. It has shown up on sweatshirts and T-shirts, and been thrown around in columns by nationally known conservative writers.

Kerry, his foes complain, might as well be French.

"The French believe John Kerry has `a certain elegance,' " sneers a contributor [aka Prime Choice] to the FreeRepublic.com website, over unflattering pictures of the Massachusetts senator playing ping-pong, catching a football, and throwing a baseball. "Of course, the French also think Jerry Lewis is a comic genius. Think about it," the satirical posting says...

Are they giving out free barf bags at the entrance?

[Cold Heat]

I had heard that he supported gore in 2000, but my level of disgust with Kerry is ten times what it was with Gore. Maybe a hundred times!

Streisand and Diamond doing a duet for Kerry.

I've never heard of anything so pathetic.

[P-Marlowe]

Doesn't this violate campaign finance laws? I thought the limit was $2000 per person per candidate. I'm confused. Has the FEC been notified of this? Has John McCain been invited to this party?

...how about THIS sign?

HEY, NEIL & BARBRA!
WHY NOT SING:
"YOU DON'T BRING ME...
FLIPPER!"

After-action report: FReepers, "Flipper" - and "Flip Flop" Kerry in East Los Angeles (5/5)

Kerry event FReeped today outside Woodrow Wilson High School in East LA

First of all let me say thank you to all those who were present today for the FReeping; We did a GREAT job, considering we didn't have much time to prepare, and that today is a weekday. I must say, I was somewhat disapointed that "Mr. Kerry" didn't get to see us, but as I'm sure, RonDog, and other FReepers present will tell you, we still got noticed by everyone else.

The highlight of the FReeping was of course "FLIPPER" (the dolphin); This guy stood there in a dolphin suit for some two hours, and let me tell you, IT WAS VERY HOT, that poor guy... RonDog also had the GREAT idea of bringing some "flipper" balloons which got a lot of attention. We had a lot of home made signs, and a few Bush/Cheney signs and stickers provided by Mr.Oscar Gutierrez, who also did a great job talking to some of the media people who were present. The flip-flops were EVERYWHERE, From a Flip-Flop shaped sign, to a bag full of flip-flops for everyone on the back.

Nonsurprisingly, there was some people who were really angry about us "ruining their party", there was some yelling, and more middle fingers than I could count; at the same time, there were some who waved and honked horns, I never get tired of this.

GREAT JOB FReepers!!

P.S.: I will try to get you guys some pictures before the end of the day...

Note the guy dressed in a "FLIPPER" costume, and the helium-filled "DOLPHIN" balloons
($6/each, inflated - from your local "Party City" store)...

...plus note the effectiveness of the LARGE BLOCK LETTERS on the signs.

I just noticed on one of the Diamond CDs, (now residing in the trash can) that he did a duet with her a long time ago, called "You Don't Bring Me Flowers"

Well Neil, You don't impresss me.........Anymore.

[AUH2OY2K]

Neil "Coming to America" Diamond is a liberal??? Sorry to hear about this.

Recently heard an interview with Streisand's first lover. He turned out gay. This is not a joke. It is however, understandable.

[Cold Heat]

Worse than a liberal, he is a Kerry supporter.

Even Striesand supported the screamer during the primary.

They are joining the "anyone but Bush crowd".

A very dangerous move, IMO. Even for a liberal.

LOL!

3. Los Angeles concert for John Kerry rescheduled

The spectacular concert for John Kerry with Barbara Streisand, Billy Crystal, Neil Diamond, Willie Nelson and a whole host of Hollywood stars has been RESCHEDULED for Thursday night, June 24th. The concert begins at 8:30 pm. Dinner will be served across the street at the Dorothy Chandler Pavillion at 6:30 (doors open at 5:30). Leave [San Diego] by limo at 2:30 and come back later that night with lots of champagne and great memories.

Tickets are $5K/person for the private dinner with Kerry and the "stars" before the concert plus preferred seating at the concert in the front rows, or $2K/person for the concert itself. The money goes to the DNC for the Kerry Victory Fund and will be used directly in the key "battleground" states so, even if you have "maxed" out at the $2,000/person level, this is a completely legal contribution...

Not surprising when I think back to Dukakis' convention theme song.
