3. It is important to keep the horror that has been inflicted in our name
refreshed in our minds and hearts, but important also not to be overwhelmed and paralyzed by it. What if we ourselves were being tortured--which we are being, in a way--tortured on the psychic/spiritual plane? How do you survive? What is a strategy for survival? How do you live to expose this outrage and to prevent others from being victimized? It is extremely difficult to strategize, when you are stunned by such horror, and further stunned by our powerlessness, as a people, to control our leaders--63% of Americans opposed to torture "under any circumstances" (May 04), yet this nightmare continues. Our leaders felt and feel NO ACCOUNTABILITY to us.

It was the torture, more than anything, that spurred me on to investigate election fraud, and to devote myself to election reform. I believe that the will of the majority has been thwarted. There is an overwhelming case for this--as overwhelming as it can possibly be, given the DELIBERATELY CREATED non-transparency of the vote counting in 2004 (all our votes "counted" electronically by Bushite corporations, using TRADE SECRET, PROPRIETARY programming code, with virtually no audit/recount controls--the new systems installed very quickly during the 2002-2004 period, with not one peep out of our fearful and corrupt Democratic Party leadership.

No accountability. That is the problem.

And I believe that the only way to fix it--in the narrow window of opportunity that we may have to do so--is by massive Absentee Ballot voting this fall. Boycott the machines! Create panic and crisis in the election theft industry, and FORCE reform NOW.
