"We're bringing a screwdriver" (Kerry Campaign threatens to sabotage debates)
WRKO radio - Boston | 9/30/04

Posted on 09/30/2004 11:16:08 AM PDT by pabianice

Heard on the hour's news:

The Kerry Campaign is now insisting that the warning lights mounted at each candidate's podium be disconnected before tonight's debate. All had previously agreed that there would be 15 second warning lights mounted at each podium to let everyone know that the speaker's time was ending. Kerry Campaign is now panicing at the thought that Mr. Debater will not have enough time for each answer he wishes to give, and are demanding that the lights be removed.

The debate organizers, to their credit, are refusing, since both campaigns agreed to have the lights. To this, a Kerry spokesman replied, "We're bringing our own screwdriver and we'll disconnect the light ourselves if we have to."

THIS is the true spirit of Campaign Kerry: 'WE get to make the rules and WE get to change them when we feel like it.' Just whom we need running the country.

AMEN to what you said! The debate hasn't even started and he's becoming fodder for the late night comedians. He's becoming more of an ass to those who weren't quite convinced yet. And he's threatening those who live in sound-byte existence with long, drawn-out, exhaustive answers. I can't see this boding well at all for him.

Kerry's handlers probably know that Pre-Mature Kerry-Bloviation Shut-Downs, forced by the red light, will cause multiple debate-implosions that will cavitate everyones brain, harsh everyone's buzz and deposit Mr. Pumpkinhead right into the Pumpkin Patch instead of to the reins of unbridled world-power.

Personally I am hoping for a Deaniac Moment. That would get my serotonin flowing and a hearty cackle would no doubt follow 8-)

If he won't abide by the light then use one of those screech horns like they use at sporting events.

When you've got about fifteen different positions on every issue, it's pretty tough to explain it all in just a minute or two, so who can blame the guy?

..an emergency meeting...to discuss THIS?!? He truly is at code orange panic level. Goodlord man, get a grip! All you have to do is shorten your explanations and ideas. Oh, and not sweat..or flick your tongue..or forget your final positions.. You'll do fine. *snicker*

Aren't you at the wrong board? I'm sure the Kool-Aid drinkers at DU would welcome you aboard.

Sounds like something a left-wing fascist democrat would say. Like Madeline Albright (liar extraordinary) calling all the radio stations in Florida and saying that John Kerry would tell the truth tonight, when she lied, and lied some more for Clinton and did nothing when the Islamic Terrorist attacked over 7 times.

All candidates choose their audiences, newbie. Your implied comparison of President Bush and Hussein is not welcome.

To this, a Kerry spokesman replied, "We're bringing our own screwdriver and we'll disconnect the light ourselves if we have to."

And here's hoping that the police/security will have enough stones to remove the campaign people if they f--- with the lights.

Maybe if Kerry got rid of all the "Today's Administration..." before everything he says he won't need to worry about running out of time.

I just LOVE it when trolls show up and say their drivel.
It shows just how pathetic and desperate the Dems are.
You're a real joker, I shall enjoy your anguish come November 2nd.
