Just read HARPER'S "None Dare Call it Stolen."
Edited on Fri Aug-12-05 10:14 PM by Botany
About time. Straight forward w/ facts. Ohio was stolen and
the media except for Keith Obermann did not say shit except
to call us conspiracy nuts. NY Times was one of the big ones
for that.

Fact from the Article:
Democratic areas 250% increase in voter registrations.
Republican areas 25% increase in voter registrations.

And that Gay Marriage was a red herring and most people
did not care about it.

I live in Columbus, OH and saw and heard the fraud 1st hand and
feel like I have been living in a bad movie where I see a murder
but nobody believes that it was a murder and every now
and then the murderer shows up and winks @ me to let me know
that he knows that I know. Examples Blackwell gives talks about
ethics to groups around the state and bush makes jokes about the
White House Christmas tree being too blue and asks Rove to change
a light or something to red and then he laughed and said I think I
will call the tree Ohio.

Sorry to rant :rant:


Well worth the $6.00 I wonder what is up in Aruba?

2. Recommended reading
I also liked the essay discussing being a real Christian. It made some excellent points. I love Harper's.

3. I never remember reading Harper's much before but ......
..... the writing on the Ohio story was very good. It could have been
a little longer but I think he has a book about the election coming out
this fall.

19. I just have to look good,I don't have to be clear.
"The Christian Paradox" by McKibben and Harper's in general look at the big picture which is absent in the media.I listen to the BBC on the internet and am shocked by their poor science news.One commentator said the tiles on the Shuttle slow it down,another said 500 foot waves required lifeguards rescue swimmers in Australia.The news seems to be divided into two classes,one for those who ride in the back of the airplane and do not want to understand aerodynamics and another for those up front in control.Identifying which group news is aimed at makes it easy to decide which is valuable.

5. Yes I hate America so much that .....
..... my heart swells w/ pride as my 10 year old son helps to
fold the flag and put it away @ the local pool in the evening.

Funny, I think the "other side" is long on gestures and symbols
but damn short on real love for this country.

Stealing an election and taking away people's vote is not love
of America but destruction of America.

:beer:

6. Lewis Lapham who I believe is the publisher of Harpers is often on TV in
Canada...I've seen him interviewed on the CBC and have heard him say he can't get on American television....He says many of the same kinds of things that Michael Moore says....:)

15. "Fooled Again - How the Right Stole the 2004 Election
and Why They'll Steal the Next One Too"
This article's an excerpt from the new book by Mark Crispin Miller (The Bush Dyslexicon).
I'll buy Harpers, but I'll probably also get the book when it comes out. I hope he gets MAJOR publicity for it.

22. Kick and 3 comments
1. why only 24 hours to recommend a thread
2. is there another thread about this already recommended ?
3. Threads hundreds of posts long about nothing but a thread about the truth about the so called "elections" in America have to limp along like this ?

Are the majority of you so wrapped up in the process of politics that you can not admit the process no longer exists ?
