NPR: "The Connection": Why Dems Lost...
Did anyone else hear this program Today? It was called "Blue State Blues" hosted by Dick Gordon.

http://www.theconnection.org/shows/2004/11/20041109_a_main.asp

They had some lame DINO apologists saying the Repugs were just better than we were, etc. It was sick. I finally had to turn it off. At no point did he adress VOTER FRAUD. HELLO! It's just the elephant in the room! I couldn't stand it and wrote him a letter:



Mr. Gordon,

I was listening to your show today on the presidential election and what went wrong for the democrats. I was surprised that you failed to mention possible election fraud as a major problem. The discrepancies using voting machines between exit polls, which favored Kerry, and election results, which followed Bush, were widespread and obvious. Also problematic were widespread disenfranchisement of black and Democratic voters, and the decision not to count absentee ballots, which favor Kerry.

The Democratic guests on your show failed to present any real Democratic arguments; they seemed like Republicans being used as strawmen. Please visit “www.blackboxvoting.org” for details and accounts of election fraud.

The real story here is the criminal subversion of the election process by the Bush administration. “It’s the Voter Fraud, Stupid!”



If you heard it too, you can write him at:
