INDC Journal, who raised the question about what John Kerry is removing from his pocket, reports that Fox News has reviewed several versions of the debate tape.
“What he takes out of his pocket … I’m almost 99% sure that it’s a pen. It’s a black, oblong object,” a FOX News producer told INDC Journal.

What is that thing in his hand? It can’t be a pen…it just can’t! Who ever heard of a small, black, pen-shaped pen? It must be a super secret cheating device packed full of liberal spin and flawed logic! Maybe its a live feed, direct from Michael Moore and Fidel Castro! It can’t be a pen! Either way, Kerry should be evicted from the presidential race and George Bush should just be declared winner of the election by default. Case closed!
