BRAD BLOG: Phony GOP 'Voting Rights' Group Delivers Massive DisInfo!
Phony GOP 'Voting Rights' Group Delivers Onslaught of Disinfo Today!
'Non-Partisan' Republican Front Group, American Center for Voting Rights Releases Report, Six Press Releases Focusing on Democratic 'Election Fraud'

Massive Republican Voter Disenfranchisement Virtually Unmentioned, Phony Quotes by 'Democrat' Used in Releases

In a massive new attempt today to disinform the American Voting Public and sidetrack the true bi-partisan Election Reform movement in this country, the phony "voting rights" group -- calling themselves deceptively "American Center for Voting Rights" (ACVR) -- issued a new report today charging that Democrats were "Far More Involved In Voter Intimidation And Suppression In 2004"...

Be Appalled, Be Very Appalled:

3. The fact that they have this group PROVES that they ARE committing fraud
themselves.

Every time anyone gets close to revealing GOP corruption and dirty tricks, the Rethugs start up a "group" to push their phony disinfo to distract from the truth.

EVERY TIME.

16. Exactly
Edited on Wed Aug-03-05 03:01 PM by FreedomAngel82
I remember hearing late last year or earlier this year of this phoney rightwing "voting rights" group. They were outed and disappeared for a while. And yes, you're right. It does show they DID steal the election!
Remember: everything these people do are backwards.

7. I love this group .....
formed in Texas on 3/17 and they testify on 3/22 in front a repub.
run (Rep Nye) hearing on voter fraud in Ohio w/ a man from St. Louis
who was the chief legal consul to Bush Cheney '04 .... as an independent
group.

They know that they stole it. This is just window dressing on a whorehouse.

10. The ACVR Goal: Disenfranchise further through Voter ID...
What I didn't make clear in the article, but should have, and will in future articles, is that the ACVR is claiming phony "voter disenfranchisement" so that they can then call for Photo ID Laws at the polls in order to assure further voter disenfranchisement (some 10% of Minorities, City Dwellers and Elderly have no photo ID).

18. Oh wow
Very telling. And it leads back to Texas. Is there a way to find out if Karl Rove is in ties to this group?

8. This can and should backfire.
Tell all Repubs: "Well, if the Dems are committing the fraud, why aren't you screaming for verifiable voting tallies, tighter security, and a paper trail? Huh? What was that? Dumbass."

Okay, maybe not those last three comments, but you know what I mean.

Edited on Wed Aug-03-05 03:27 PM by me b zola
NOT!!!


I cannot begin to tell you how sick I am of neo-thug criminal behavior operating openly and blatantly. Crush the truth and replace it with bullshit.

21. OUR voter's rights groups should immediately
engage with this crowd. If they want to "make the vote fair and accurate" they should be delighted to make common cause!

WOW - a really bipartisan push against election fraud. With the right and the left both working at capacity, we can GET IT DONE!

(unless, of course, they're LYING.... which would become immediately apparent)

(Oh, and thanks Al-CIAda, for keeping it bumped.. you do good work):hi:

22. OK........................
Bring it ON !!!!! :mad:

And the more this gets whipped up as "us vs them" the more attention we get too. The public might just start to look at the voting system as something that needs a complete overhaul.

Good News Is: Indicates that exposing the level of Repug election fraud is working! Typical Repug Backlash. They make everything into a war. So let's rise to the challenge and roll over these lies.

So when A Repug says to you soon--"The Dems are the election cheats" BE READY with plenty of ammunition (facts) from our perspective!
