Just because it's a theory, doesn't make it untrue! I agree!

8. History is full of conspiracies,
spotting one sometimes means you ARE sane. The one we are in is the biggest one ever, and it started at least four years ago.

And history is a nightmare from which we must awaken.

5. And it is time to really start the revolution: Let's go after the MSM
Why are Republicans delusional? Because of the media. We have two years before the next federal election. Let's go for it.

9. But
51% seem to love him. Don't kid yourself, the *ites won fair and square. There may be some voting irregularities, but they won't change a single thing. 48% is not a majority.

11. 50 million people hating one person is a really large number.
My point is that he has never given a shit about what 50 million in this country care about. I would also say that 40 percent love him and 20 percent liked him more than Kerry. I am pretty sure 48% hate him however.

15. It is a large number
but so what? anybody with power will make real enemies. The more we hate him, the more his base loves him.

There is way too much anger here. It cost us the election

10. If Bush wanted healing he would insist provisional ballots be counted
and not give an acceptance speach until all the votes are counted.

Bush doesn't care about legitimacy because he doesn't care about the 48% of us who don't agree with him.

16. If they give us a corporate-controlled fascist dictatorship,
but call it a democracy, does that make it a democracy?
Heck no.

Even the REASONABLE SUSPICION that the Florida results were brought to us by Diebold is enough to undermine democracy. We must get a voter-verified paper trail in place by 2006. Start working on this NOW.

17. Yes, get rid of the Diebold machines.
I agree 100% about needing a voter-verified paper trail and getting rid of the machines. Even the chad producing punch machines. Just a piece of paper and a pencil. And a Democrat, a Republican, an independent, and a third party representative on a board of observers wherever ballots are handled. It would be expensive, but maybe less expensive than what happened in Florida last time.

Having said that I don't see any evidence of widespread fraud with the Diebold machines. But why not take this issue ballot fraud off the table?
