The silence in response to this blatant voting debacle is deafening
Edited on Wed Nov-03-04 07:01 AM by Dover
Not a peep yet from the mainstream that continue to feed the lie. But what's really surprising is that not one word from the supposedly liberal voices as yet either. I'm waiting!

And if you are one of those questionable voices who calls such thinking conspiratorial, then apparently you also think the 2000 and 2002 elections were legitimate as well?

If Bush's propanganda machine has convinced you that he actually WON the popular vote and that this race was close, you are probably either a sad casualty of the machine or a freeper. Perception is the game.....how much are you willing to surrender in order to maintain THEIR reality?

2. Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are on their way to Ohio
Just heard that on MSNBC. Just because the media has oppressed any stories of disfranchisement doesn't mean it didn't happen. People are mobilizing. Don't count on the media whores to accurately report this when they haven't accurately reported anything in four years!

6. I still am pondering why Dems permitted the e-voting paper trail issue
to go unchallenged in the courts beginning four years ago.

7. I agree. I've said it in here earlier...
Where the hell are all the Dem cheerleaders now?!!

I see that some of you give info that Sharpton and others are going to Ohio......and that the Kerry camp is "organizing" but HELLS BELLS
Give us something to hang on too already!

9. CT theory Time, big time...
Bush stole two elections, and lied us into Iraq, and the corporate media helped. Let's see, did I leave something out...?

10. Get ready for the power of the Internet(s)
Take it to the boards. Keep on fighting. There are many progressive web sites that cropped up since the 2000 theft. Fight with your keyboards.

12. Agree, Dover...it's too quiet out there. I hope this means that our Dems
and activists are in conference on how to proceed. Surely they have to
know there are thousands of us pounded the pavement for Kerry and we are really hurting out here.
