[Vision2020] Got an interesting postcard from the Friends of Bouma today...

Sat Oct 16 14:43:58 PDT 2010

I do not know who sent it.  Was it stamped or was it a postal permit?  If a permit, then the sender can be identified.

The address appears correct:

  Subject: Re: [Vision2020] Got an interesting postcard from the Friends of Bouma today...

  All I know is what I wrote:  what was on the postcard.

  My first thought was that it was a joke.  But:
  1.  I believe something like this done to sabotage a campaign would be illegal.
  2.  This would be a very expensive joke
  3.  Why would I receive such a joke/sabotage postcard?  I'm not reg. with a party, nor am I particularly well known.

  I'm afraid it may be serious.

  What I do know is that if I was with the Bouma campaign, or the Eastside Marketplace I would be distancing myself like this at 1000 miles per hour.

  If my scanner worked, I'd scan it in and send it out to v2020.

    This isn't satire?  Is this for real?

      Is there a way that the origin of this flyer can be absolutely verified?

      If I were Gresham Bouma I would claim that this flyer is bogus and that
      those that disagree with my pastor have mounted a smear campaign.

      This type of tactic has been attempt before, once using UI letterhead.

    There is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.
