When have Republicans ever been known to put safety ahead of profit? When have they ever been known to spend an ounce of public money for prevention, in order to avoid a pound of cure?
Which party spent time and money on research studies in order to make responsible decisions? Which party went after corporations which were known to harm the public?
I realize that the media withheld information from the public before the 2004 election which would have made a difference in the direction this country is headed, but why were the Democrats so slow to capitalize on the one issue which they have repeatedly proven to be better at than Republicans: SAFETY!

1. THEFT via Black Box Voting |

How else can the diparity between the exit polls and the "actual numbers" be explained? That's just one of thousands of pieces of the puzzle which is called "strong circumstantial evidence" of election theft.

2. Putting the obvious aside... |
|
Forget BBV for now. I remember the media spin and I just can't comprehend how the Dems allowed the media to frame the Republicans as the party of safety. The sons of bitches rely on profitting wherever there is chaos, and it's usually their incompetence that creates that chaos. So why didn't the Dems have their own set of talking points to counter the media spin?

3. Some very foolish mothers did not do their homework. |

However there must have been some brain damage in that group because sane people would not chose a complete failure over a successful veteran.

4. Again, the media is at fault for allowing the Republicans to frame |
|
the issues. Maybe the Dem are to blame too, but I believe a few of them, at least, are saying the right things, it's just not the kind of things that the media reports.
