ROVE NAMED IN ELECTION FRAUD CONSPIRACY
(1 comments) It is a case of vast historical importance, not just because of what it will reveal about US elections since 2000, but, no less, because it represents the only way that we might actually prevent another stolen race this fall. By shining a bright light, at last, on all the topmost perpetrators of the fraud thus far, this suit will drive them all into defensive mode and, therefore, out of business.

Election Fraud, not Voter Fraud, is a National Security Threat
(5 comments) I am not a Democrat or a Republican, but an Independent dedicated to the promise of American democracy as envisioned by Tom Paine. I believe, with him, that the right to vote is the basis on which all our other rights depend. And so the issue here is ultimately not the victory or defeat of either party, but the people's right to choose their government, and thereby live, and rule, in freedom.

Help Clint Curtis
(2 comments) Friends,please help him raise the funds he needs to file for this fall's House race in FL's 24th Congressional district.He only needs $2000!Not too much to ask for such a patriot,who's done so much to spread the word about BushCo's election fraud--despite the interference,and/or non-cooperation, of both parties.Help Clint run against Tom Feeney,& maintain his struggle for an honest voting system in the Sunshine State,& beyond.

SCOTUS upholds Indiana photo ID law
(2 comments) This decision was supposed to come in June, but Roberts et al.didn't want to wait that long.Why?Perhaps because they want the law in place when IN Dems turn out to (try to) vote in their primary on May 6 (next Tuesday). And certainly because they want to give the GOP in other states a chance to ram through laws like IN's.(There are already similar laws in several other states.They aren't as strict as IN's so maybe now they can

On Clinton's "big win" yesterday
(11 comments) Neither her supporters nor the watchdogs of the media seem to care at all about exactly how she pulled it off--or rather,to be more precise,how it may well have been pulled off for her.As the piece below reminds us,the voting system in PA is eminently hackable,and completely unverifiable; and there were mammoth problems yesterday,all day,throughout Obama-friendly districts.Election monitors tried to call the hotline,no answer

Another of US Attorney Alice Martin's Victims
(2 comments) Martin is US Attorney for the Northern District of Alabama--appointed by Bush/Cheney on 9/29/01 (and one of those not fired for non-cooperation); and then deployed by Karl Rove to nail Don Siegelman. Look at what she did to this guy.

Obama: "Al Gore won" (and that's the truth)
(1 comments) There is, however,no excuse for Clinton's claim that those two candidates lost their elections:no excuse, even though the myth that Gore and Kerry "lost" has been repeated all but universally for years,by nearly everybody in the media,the Democratic Party & the GOP.It was therefore a cause for raucous cheering when Obama said,"I have to say,I think Al Gore won."It was a statement to be wildly cheered,because no other candidate

Who stole those votes in Alabama in 2002? Don Siegelman names names--but the media doesn't want to know
(10 comments) If you're an election reform activist, please start your(search)engines.If you're a journalist,please do your job.And if you're just another patriotic citizen,please do whatever you can do to get the press, and/or the Dem Party,to pay heed.For starters,how about asking "60 Minutes" why they "cut it out,"and asking Dan Abrams why he "didn't want to go there either"?And since Don also told the WaPa & LA Times about the theft of

The ONLY way to beat McCain
(6 comments) The email below comes from a list-serve catering to far-right Christianists,and therefore offers us a clear view of how Bomb-Bomb plans to run: i.e.,as Rambo,with short hair and in a business suit,and back again not just to idealize the war in Vietnam but to start up several more just like it.They're doing it to keep the Dems embroiled in civil war-which is an excellent way for the Repubs either to get McCain elected in Nov...

Please help Clint Curtis
Clint Curtis is a great American, who deserves as much of your support--material support--as you can give him. He's probably done more to shed light on the Busheviks' election fraud than any other US citizen, and has been balked not only by the GOP but by the Democratic Party.

GOP prolongs the agony--and GE likes it!
(3 comments) Here, from Thom Hartmann, are some interesting bits of audio that make it pretty clear that the Obama/Clinton rift is highly pleasing to some very powerful entities.

Bush buddies blacked out "60 Minutes"
The Bass brothers' PACs donated more than $200,000 to Bush's gubernatorial campaigns,while their personal donations topped $270,000,according to UTWatch.org.Lee Bass was also among the Bush Pioneers in '00&04,raising at least $100,000 for the presidential campaign in each election cycle,according to TX for Public Justice.The station's general manager initially gave an incorrect explanation for the broadcast failure, blaming it

Gray Lady [NY Times] hushes up SS breakdown in Dallas
We should all should be trying to clear up something infinitely more important:why the Times itself "hushed up" the story of Obama's Secret Service detail,which,according to the Dallas cops,got remarkably laid-back about Obama's safety in the very town where JFK got whacked.

It's the media, stupid!
(6 comments) The vast corruption of our media system is an issue of profound importance-- an issue as important as, and fundamentally related to, the corruption of our voting system. So what really matters isn't whether John McCain was schtupping Vicki Iseman. It's that Ms. Iseman was but one of many pricey lobbyists who have helped McCain schtup all the rest of us.

Obama "open" to privatizing public education

CBS News promoting "60 Minutes" on Don Siegelman this Sunday, 2/24/08
CBS News has just posted the first teaser for its feature,to air on Sunday, concerning the prosecution of former Ala. Gov. Don E. Siegelman.It concerns Jill Simpson's account of her dealings with Karl Rove and his involvement in plans to take down the once popular two-term Alabama Governor:Rove's attempt to smear Don Siegelman was part of a Republican campaign to ruin him that finally succeeded in imprisoning him,says Simpson

County Clerks are going berserk in Colorado
(1 comments) They want to keep the DRE machines, which the SoS,Mike Coffman,has decertified, insisting that the state use op-scans instead.The clerks say that it's not the DRE's that are defective,but the tests used to appraise the DRE's;and some of them are even threatening to use the DRE's, decertified or not.They say they don't have time to buy the op-scans, don't know how to use them, blah blah blah.The simplest course would be to dump

Three Strikes Against Obama
(6 comments) If you care about what happens on Election Day,you had better take these revelations seriously;for,whether you can handle them or not, rest assured that the Republicans will handle them with all their usual ruthlessness and skill.And once that happens, all the rapturous devotion that you're feeling at this moment will not count for anything.So read this through,and try to keep your cool;because the last thing any of us need is

Voters Hell in Arizona: A Pollworker's Personal Story
(5 comments) A detailed&poignant firsthand account of someone trying to do her civic duty in a polling place completely insecure & riddled with corruption."I believe after being witness to more then 14 hours of manipulation&controlled mass confusion at my Polling Place on 2/5/08,I'm convinced there's corruption within our electoral system.There's not a shadow of doubt in my mind,it doesn't matter who votes,what matters is who counts votes

Obama's Treatment by the Press
(2 comments) It's ironic (not to say bizarre) that Barack Obama strikes so many people as "progressive."First of all,he's simply not progressive;and, secondly,because the press has so far treated him much as it treated Ronald Reagan back in 1980(and, by and large, forever after):i.e.,apolitically, uncritically,with lots of emphasis on his success as a "communicator" & almost nothing on his actual positions,or the interests back of him.

A 12-Step Program to Save US Democracy
(16 comments) History can be changed,and for the better,but only through our own unbreakable commitment to,and action for,enlightened policies for the renewal of our democracy.Based squarely on America's first principles,such policies would not be wholly new,however revolutionary they must sound in these bad, backward times.As it was certain policies that got us into this horrific situation, certain other policies can get us out.

Clinton/Bush plays Vegas (I)
On this day when we pretend to honor MLK Jr.,it is appropriate to note that his great moral legacy has recently been trashed not only by the Reagan/Bush Republicans(what else is new?)but also by the Clinton Democrats.Despite Bill's reputation as "America's first black president,"the Clinton Team is evidently just as keen on vote suppression as the oldtime Democrats of Dixie,or their Bushevik descendents working full-time to

Clinton/Bush plays Vegas (2)
If you want a bitter laugh,read the following,and then read the coverage of Nevada in Sunday's New York Times.Typically,the Times account comes straight from Wonderland, where the Nevada caucus was high-spirited and lots of good old-fashioned fun-and absolutely clean,albeit marked by certain "political high-jinks" that the two reporters don't identify,other than to intimate, as usual,that there were "high-jinks"on both sides.

What to expect from a NH Recount and Why
(3 comments) The NH recount is going forward after all, as many of you have pointed out to me. However, Kucinich is settling for a partial recount---which, as Nancy Tobi argues here, is likelier to cover up the fraud (if any) than expose it. Read on.

Pre-election "house calls" in NH
What a mess.Apparently the Diebold opscans in NH have been so prone to failure that the vendor,LHS Associates,was making countless quiet "house calls" just before the primary up there.This is not unusual:LHS is called in routinely,and not just in NH(the company operates throughout New England),"to step in to make voting problems disappear before elections."Why is there no coverage of this issue?

Karl Rove explains why Hillary won
Let's talk a bit about the possibility that the Republicans fixed the NH primary.How far-fetched is that idea? Well, those of you who know a little history willrecall that,way back in 1972,Richard Nixon had these guys, like Donald Segretti--"ratfuckers," they called themselves--out there on the campaign trail harassing old Ed Muskie.(Muskie finally melted down, remember,in NH.)Their goal was to ravage his campaign so as to...

Ohio 2004: The Longest Line
The drive to block the vote was particularly flagrant in Gambier, OH,home of Kenyon College.While student voters at nearby religious schools had quite an easy time of it, Kenyon's students had to wait for hours and hours and hours.Those long lines soon turned out to have been purposely created,through the deliberate under-supply of working e-voting machinery to the polling sites at Kenyon.Students wrote an account.Here's link.

Interview with Don Siegelman, former Alabama Governor
As he himself makes clear,Siegelman's ordeal began back in 2000,when he came out early on, and publicly,against the presidential bid of his fellow governor,Bush,and backed Al Gore instead.It was a move that Rove never did forget,and never would forgive,says Siegelman.Rove's long drive to destroy the Alabama governor resulted in the theft of the 2002 election for Republican Bob Riley. Here Siegelman describes that theft.

Granting Telecom Giants Retroactive Immunity will give AT&T total power over our elections
(1 comments) While the issues surrounding electronic voting are highly technical and controversial, it is beyond question that a telecom such as AT&T that strains the electronic flow of information, according to undisclosed search criteria, could also in principle act as a so-called "man in the middle" by intercepting, analyzing, and changing votes before they reach their final destination.

Action Alert! HR 811 up for vote in House next week
(1 comments) Although we have done much, over the last few months, to weaken the bill's congressional support, there is of course a good chance that the members of the House, just back from vacation, will have lost their focus, and so may vote this toxic legislation into law.

Exposé: Holt bill was revised by Microsoft, Diebold and ES&S
(18 comments) Is there any link between Rush Holt and a high-tech Princeton company that stands to profit from an election reform bill that Holt has pending in the House? That legislation, critics charge, will only further weaken our democracy. Holt is smart-a rocket scientist, in fact-so why has he ignored the many solid arguments against his bill? Is he in denial, or in somebody's pocket-or is it a little bit of both?

To prevent any more stolen elections, we want to encourage *every* voter to "google" their voter registration in September, while there is still time to submit a new registration form.

Psst! The Fix Is In (and what you can do about it)
(1 comments) As for this next election, we should concentrate on getting out the word. Once our fellow-citizens find out what's going on, and also finally understand the enemy, they will take up this struggle, which we, the people, will then win. There are three tasks that we must carry out these next two months.
