(70,483 posts)32. in 2005 Blackwell went around and gave speech's about "ethics and values" in government
I was right in the middle of "the belly of the beast" in Ohio 2004 I saw "it" w/my
own eyes and heard "it" w/my own ears and was driven just about crazy when
nothing happened and bush and Cheney got their 2nd term.
I went to one post election meeting where hundreds of people stood up and all told
their election horror stories ..... votes flipping on machines, phone lines hacked, people
being denied absentee ballots, "the mighty texas strike force," people being dropped from
voter rolls, and tons of other stuff we had local and national media at that meeting
and it got almost no coverage.
We had life long republicans coming to Kerry's HQs and to volunteer because they
said this country couldn't stand anymore of bush and company. We had calls from
a naval ship in the middle east and troops in Iraq wanting to make sure that vote was
counted because everybody hated bush but in the end the troops voted on electronic
machines and KBR handled the votes.
Kerry kicked bush ass in Ohio but things happened: screen captures election night 2004

There truly are no words. OHIO was so "in-your-face-fuck-you-we-can-do-anything-we-want".
