Are You Going to Let Them Beat You Down!?!?

By Dean Powers

They're trying to demoralize you! They're trying to trudge you under foot! They're trying to beat you down and scrape you into the trash can! Are you going to let them???

::::::::

They're trying to stop you from voting. They're trying to test your patience and send you home miserable and dejected. These Republicans give Cuyahoga County, the largest county in Ohio, a handful of electronic voting machines and none of them work. This has Blackwell written all over it. Are you going to let them stop you from voting? Is there anything more important than ending this type of corruption? And if you think I'm paranoid after two dozen reported cases in which voting machines switched votes from Democrat to Republican in 2004, a Republican strategist is already asserting fraud in Virginia for a minor problem. This from the New York Times: "In New Jersey, Republican officials said that close to two dozen voters across the state had complained that when they entered the voting booth, the name of Senator Menendez was already lighted, and that it could be de-selected only by pressing it again. A party official, Mark Sheridan, told reporters... 'We're not sure exactly what the cause of it is,' Mr. Sheridan, the Republican state committee counsel, said in a conference call, 'but it's become too widespread to believe it's a coincidence.'" A whole TWO DOZEN!!!! No way! It couldn't be that the Republicans planted these "people" and paid them off to claim voter fraud!!!! They're cheaters; they're liars; they're crooks; they're power hungry villains; they're reptiles; and they will do anything to stop you from voting. These Republican politicians are on a power trip; they are venomous snakes who have assaulted your liberties for six years! They are warmongers and war profiteers! They are ripping you off and they are securing the doom of America! Are you going to let them????
