[Salvation]

Did Kerry Violate Debate Rules By Using Cheat Sheet?

How else was Kerry expected to remember the answers to the questions?

[BB2]

From what I know of the venerated Jim Lehrer, it wouldn't surprise me to find out Kerry not only had crib notes, but that he had the questions before hand too!

[RGSpincich]

Two words. Pocket protector. The geek had his pens in a pocket protector. What was in the protector, I don't know, but the picture is easily explained.

FWIW---FoxNews was the "pool source" (not sure of terminology ?) for the video for the debates last Thursday.

The one "pool source" that then shares the feed with the other news groups.

I heard Brit Hume say this a few minutes after the debate, I guess just to explain how it works.

Point being: Fox has all the video that exists at the best quality, and if there is truly reliable footage that proves Kerry cheated I trust that Fox will run with it--especially since the pajama brigade and Drudge have already gotten the ball rolling!

My Own due diligence. My apologies if someone posted this timeline, but I've been working on it for a while,
so I wasn't reading through all the posts.

Jim Lehrer said:
"I have agreed to enforce their rules on them"

I say balogney.....

It's no wonder Kerry is facing away from Lehrer, they had been told the Moderator would enforce the rues.

Now if one was to sneak something in, and VIOLATE THE RULES as Kerry OBVIOUSLY did no matter what the closet
libs say, one would do it to avoid the Moderator from catching you.

Kerry is facing clearly facing away from the Moderator:

Think about the Moderators wink to Kerry at the END, and put this into perspective.

Is it Possible the Moderator and one Candidate (kerry) Schemed so that the Moderator would not notice Kerry
removing something from his pocket?

Look at the Moderator, and vies the C-Span or washington Post Rm video and use pause and review to stop and play.

You will see the following:

00:1:55 Moderator clearly looks at Bush while picking up paper, and turning it over. Ensuring Kerry would not be caught while you see the kerry swipe.

00:1:57 Moderator looks at Kerry, but Deed has been done, as Podium height blocks Moderator
from seeing what Kerry has removed form Pocket and fiddles with on Podium.

00:1:58 Moderator finally returns a look to kerry after debate violation swipe from suit pocket.
Podium hides done deed. Why is Kerry looking down?

00:1:59 Moderator continues to look at kerry after debate violation swipe from suit pocket,
but again, podium hides done deed.

**I would like to add the screen cap of the Moderators Wink to this, if someone canpost that as well,
it would be appreciated.

NOTE: This absolves the Moderator in my opinion from seeing the deed, as Video proves he was looking
down or at Bush when Kerry violated the Rules.

It does not however absolve the Moderator from explaining the wink, or the possibility that this was
a planned event scheme that was potentially agreed to by the Moderator and Candidate Kerry. The evidence is non-conclusive
to that point although, the wink along with the Moderators view of Kerry during the Violation can
lead to the conclusion of a scheme between the Moderator and the candidate Kerry, in my opinion.

The Video is there, the wink at the end is there, and the evidence is clear.
Kerry Violated the debate rules, cheated, and the format has been compromised by
none other than the candidate himself.

DemocRATs attempting to say that it was a fountain pen that this botoxed geek was pulling from his inside coat pocket is sophomoric.

[benice]

This is worse than WATERGATE in my opinion!!

[JohnBDay]

I just called the Comission number and the guy on the line said that he had not heard about it. I find that hard to believe.
