Brad Blog: Help Counter the ACVR/GOP Disinformation Campaign!


Blogged by Brad on 3/26/2005 @ 11:57am PT...

Help Counter the ACVR/GOP Disinformation Campaign!

Take Action Now!

The entirely and purposefully misleading 31-page report on Election Problems in Ohio that was produced by the fake "voting rights" group calling themselves the "American Center for Voting Rights" (ACVR) is now serving it's purpose by being propigated on Rightwing blogs and Internet sites who either don't bother to look into something before posting it, or (perhaps more likely) look, but don't care.

You are now needed to counter this dis-info!

A Google search for "American Center for Voting Rights" will produce several sites which are now running this report and which refer to this group as "non-partisan" (which all BRAD BLOG readers should know by now is a scam...See this, this, this and this if you don't already know that!)

1. The RNC is taking aim at us and is trying to thwart our momentum
the takeover of California is nearly complete (look for New York to be next). Now, the RNC is going after election fraud/reform to counter and gain control of our conversation.

We need to up the ante and go on the offensive:

1. Our message should center around the "stolen election" (which it was) and "we the people" (which we are). Its our rights they are attacking.

2. We need a DVD presentation to use in a massive nationwide teach-in/meetup campaign exposing the stolen election and need for real voting rights protections.

3. We need to build our coalition, joining forces with other activist organizations (anti-war, environmental, etc.) and solidifying political alliances with the likes of Conyers, Boxer, etc.

4. We need activism to focus local media on election fraud (national media won't report; local media WILL!): picketing national news media, street protests in major cities, mobilizing worldwide support for our cause.

5. We need a calendar of election fraud conferences this spring and summer around the country focusing on the national and local election fraud issues.

6. We need a national communications network distributing clear common talking points and information.


More later - got to go to work.

Your "more later" sounds interesting. Perhaps a thread from you on the subject?

I don't think you guys see the overall picture here. This fourth reich style RNC is nearly pure evil, you're going to have to have alot more than momentum to kill it off.

You're going to need proof, and I mean lots of it, tons of hard proof which can be shown before all the leaders and open up real trials.

I'm talking about the fact that James Sensenbrenner recently mailed me back, and actually said, that if there is enough documents given on this and on a coup against syria and other countries he will himself open up trials and hearings.

See so there's that, and there's the fact that democratic leaders are complicit in the fraud. They're making money off this stuff, like in the old days, its great business.

So in order to get the world to come to your aid and try to crush the wind sails you'll all need more than mobilization.....

You'll have to own the facts, and a whole lot of it. Where I'm standing now there are probably more than 20 underground research groups and places that are uncovering the proof(I'm in one of them) and the truth about all of them is, they don't have it yet and some of them have been sidelined by the bad guys so they can't get it yet.

Documents and lots and lots of paperwork. Hard stuff when everywhere you go they are cleaning up after the mess, even harder when Rove's goons are planted all over the place and sometimes are who you least expect,(your boss at work) and so this fight will go on.
