I just got 'The Kerry Kit' from MoveOn.org

Mine came in the mail today......

Have you seen what MoveOn is sending out? Clearly Soros' big bucks are being spent on a first class marketing tool.

It contains a DVD, a (small) Kerry/Edwards Sticker, two articles, Kerry's liberal voting record, Kerry's (outlandish) promises and instruction cards on how to spread the word on the 'real John Kerry'.

The DVD contains footage from the upcoming documentary on Kerry by George Butler 'Going Upriver: the Long War of John Kerry'. (Does this movie have film that Kerry himself shot in Vietnam?)

The articles praising Kerry are by David Kusnet, speechwriter for Clinton '92-94 and David Corn of The Nation magazine.

Those who get the kits are instructed to have a dinner party & invite friends to view the DVD and then get them to order their own 'Kits' and do the same....also to email everyone they know to order their own 'Kerry Kit.

While it says the kit is 'not authorized by any candidate or candidate's committee' wouldn't Kerry have to authorize the use of the Butler film if he gave his own film to Butler?

Also the Kit is Called 'The KERRY KIT" so it is clearly promoting Kerry.

If sharing resources is a violation of whatever rules govern the organizations, then you juuuuust might have something. Get all your evidence together and go git 'em! :-)

Sign up everybody you know to get a kit and than promptly throw them in the garbage when they arrive in your mailbox.

[John Lenin]

4 bucks ? Fougettabouddit.

[JulieRNR21]

That ws a great idea when they were free....(mine was)....but now they want $4.00 for shipping the kerry propaganda kit!

[cookcounty]

I thought the legal restrictions were only about broadcast advertising. Am I wrong?

[TC Rider]

I hear those DVDs make great coasters. And frisbees.

Think skeet.

[Richard-SIA]

Kerry DVD = PULL!
Followed by sound of 12 ga. shotgun and shattered plastic.

[Jim Robinson]

I think we were talking about coordination between 527s and the candidate or his official campaign being illegal.

[ladyinred]

I don't want one Julie, I would barf! :-) But tell me, since you got the info, just who is the real John Kerry? Do they speak of his Marxist views, or are they hiding that "real" JF'nK? :-)

[ZOTnot]

3-5 weeks. Then convene a party for people to watch it. TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE. They should have thought to do something proactive a bit sooner. This is a desperate, last minute measure.

[SWake]

I just received an email saying mine shipped. It specifically notes that if it is not delivered by 7 Sept, to contact them. Think they will send me another? Or two or three?
