Group holds fast to Kerry cause with Beacon Hill vigil
Boston Globe ^ | December 29, 2004 | Donovan Slack,

Posted on 12/29/2004 1:47:46 AM PST by Cincinatus' Wife

The election is long over. A new year is starting, and even most of the more ardent liberals are moving on. But in Louisburg Square this week, one determined group isn't quite ready to let go. About a half dozen supporters of John Kerry are holding vigil in front of his house, still hoping for a Kerry presidency.

The little knot of demonstrators, calling themselves the Coalition Against Election Fraud, stood shivering in the cold yesterday, hoisting signs and pressing fliers into the hands of bewildered passersby. Taxi drivers, neighbors digging cars out of the snow, and Beacon Hill residents who happened to be strolling by were subjected to earnest pleas to join the cause.

''Who knows? Maybe we'll overturn the election," said Sheila Parks, a vigil organizer.

Parks said the group believes the election was fixed and wants to persuade the Massachusetts senator to oppose congressional approval of the electoral college results Jan. 6. That would set in motion the process of questioning George W. Bush's victory in November. Such a challenge has never been successful, and nobody in Washington expects one now.

For his part, Kerry has said he's satisfied that the American people got their way in the election. He said he would file court papers in support of a recount effort in Ohio, but has said his only interest is ensuring confidence in the election process.

In any case, Kerry wasn't home to take notice of yesterday's demonstrators. A woman answered the door and promised to deliver a message when he returns from vacation at the end of January. Kerry has been in Ketchum, Idaho, for several weeks, and he plans to go to the Middle East for the first two weeks of January.

Good for them. I think it's important that they stay firm in their dementia. It's important that they continue to remind the rest of America that the Democrats have all gone crazy.

Most liberals have moved on. I wonder what Alan Colmes thinks of these nutcases tilting against the windmills. It gives liberalism a bad name.

Don't these retread hippie DUmmies have j-o-b-s? What do they do to support themselves? Oh, that's right, they collect welfare, disability & unemployment, "work" for "non-profits", panhandle from productive citizens, sell tie-dyed Kerrypalooza t-shirts and pick up bottles & cans.... What a sad spectacle they are! Kerry and his Missus are probably sitting at an elaborate bar in Ketchup, Idaho, right now, laughing their @sses off at these losers, and they think he's on their side! What a hoot!!

I believe firmly it would be a public service to learn about any prescription medications this woman is currently taking... then avoid them at all costs.

They have titles, but no real jobs. Here's her bio from http://www.healthfreedommassachusetts.org/directors.htm

Dr. Sheila Parks is a political organizer/activist and a homeopath. She studied with Dr. Luc De Schepper at the Renaissance Institute of Classical Homeopathy for many years and continues to study with him; she has also studied with several other homeopaths. She holds an Ed.D. from Boston University, an M.A. from Columbia University, and a B.A. from Radcliffe College. As Founder and Chair of the Brookline Underground Railroad Committee she worked with others to place plaques on two houses in Brookline that were part of the Underground Railroad. The committee also educated the public with events and mailings, introduced curricula and produced arts performances in the schools. As Founder and Chair of Brookline Residents Concerned About Antennas she worked with others to increase public awareness of the Telecommunications Act and the dangers of cellular phone antennas. The Committee co-authored a by-law regulating the siting of cellular phone antennas, which the Brookline Town Meeting adopted over the by-law recommended by the Selectpeople and the Advisory Committee. At WMFO, Tufts University Radio, she hosted and produced a weekly live public affairs interview radio show called We The People. This show was highlighted in The Boston Globe. Dr. Parks was an Assistant Professor at Lesley College Graduate School; on the faculty of Bunker Hill Community College; an Assistant Professor at Boston State College; a Teaching Assistant and Instructor at Boston University.

What's a homeopath? A sociopath who doesn't go out much?

Accurate and well stated.

BTW, You can use the word "ass" here since it is in the dictionary and also in the Bible.
