The Backlash Cometh - MAINSTREAM VOTE FRAUD 2004 COVERAGE SO FAR

The Backlash Cometh - Cowardly Media Flushed Out Of Their Bunker



Below I have compiled a list of DU threads on E-Vote Fraud stories in the mainstream media so far.

The good news - we have flushed the cowards out of their holes... and Keith Olberman HUGELY deserves the credit for this.

The bad news - now we have the spinsters on our case.... not only will they be going after the media (which will develop a herd mentality on this most probably) but they will also be going after the witnesesses. See Skinner's thread on Cuyoohooga (sp) county.

We are now at a critical phase in this. Personally I would have expected them to ignore us for longer. But my guess is they are shit scared that Kerry is taking us seriously.

Kerry and his team need to look beyond the 24 hour news cycle on this one.

Till yesterday there was a news blackout... then Olberman broke the story in the mainstream.. then Jennings poo poohed it and already today the papers are coming out in force.

Sometimes the world of journalism really is a sewerpipe.

Please add links to new vote fraud skeptic stories as they pop up. You can be assured there will be lots more.

And remember... don't beleive everything you read on the Internet.

3. My Message to the Cleveland Plain Dealer (Shit Dealer?)
The history of elections in America is the history of vote recounts and rigged elections. Why should 2004 be any different?

Bush/Rove gave the news media a new word, "evangelical," which they are babbling like babie at a day care. While the religious vote was important, too many "irregularites" are surfacing to be ignored.

Recounts should definitely be undertaken. The purpose is not to necessarily overturn the election results but to validate the machinery. In fact a good argument can be made that it is our Christian and Constitutional duty to audit the results.

The secondary reason for recounts is to focus the national spotlight on BBV with its paperless trail. If that isn't a felony on Democracy I don't know what is and they should be eradicated from the landscape. Bills in Congress to that purpose have languished. Recounts could change that.

The third reason for recounts is to fulfill the promise given by John Kerry to 55 million Americans. Never mind the fact that the integrity of democracy is dependent upon a nation having confidence in the voting results. Slowly but surely 1/2 the country are having suspicions that need to be put to rest. Those suspicions will not die but likely grow.

The soul of Democracy is the truth. Years ago, that used to be the objective of the media. Now the news media have become nothing more than apologists for the status quo. Shameful.
