2. Hmmm... this may help to explain last nights Nightline "Infomercial"

The fact that the MSN broke their silence on election fraud at all leads me to believe they know something(s) big is coming.

It ain't over yet.

[Patsy Stone]

3. You mean this?

Larisa: So essentially this past election is considered over, even if your investigation should bear fruit and is for moving forward?

Conyers: I would not say it is over because if there are criminal violations they can be prosecuted still.

Larisa: This brings me to Kenneth Blackwell who is not seemingly cooperating…

Conyers: What a piece of work he is.

Larisa: How do you plan on handling Mr. Blackwell because he does not seem to want to cooperate?

Conyers: Once we get the committee hearing approval, this is my very next immediate task. Obviously we need him as a witness, and I would be willing to invite him to come forward. And if he refused I would seek a subpoena.

Go, John, go!

[The Doctor.]

7. He has to get Sensenbrenner to approve the hearing....

That's the problem.

I'll give you 5 to 1 that Sensenbrenner finds a way to 'not approve'.

[Jackpine Radical]

42. Unfortunately, Senselessbrenner is a political troglodyte.

Right down the line for RW wacko & big bu$ine$$ positions.

4. Keep Digging John

Conyers knows where the body is buried. The repugs know it too.
That is why the Ohio A.G. filed a motion to stop the civil suits about the election.

[Stand and Fight]

5. Interesting folks... But sadly, it is over.

Those familiar with my posts, know that I was a huge advocate for election-day fraud. I still am and I continue to ardently believe that John Kerry is the rightful winner of the past presidential election. Nevertheless, this election is very much over. It's time to continue our war against the hypocrisy of the Bush administration. Clinging on to false hopes that the wrongs of the election fraud on November 2, 2004 will be righted is unhealthy. It is serving to hold us back from continuing forward in a progressive drive to take our country back from Bush and his Neo-Conservative-Pansy-Candy-Ass-Fascists.

[Twist_U_Up]

8. ahh but to uncover the truth

and expose them for the scum that they are is a must. Yes we need election reform but we also need Justice for Democracy.

[merh]

10. We can't take our country back from the weed and his neo-cons

if we don't have election reform. We won't have "true" election reform unless Conyers pursues these hearings. There is no need to worry about the party if we don't get laws passed that correct our election process because without "true" reform a dem will never win the WH and we will always be the minority party in congress. So, the focus needs to be on the election fraud of 2004.

Never Give Up!

[Griffy]

13. No.. its time to expose the fraud to the public.. then see what happens!

Bush could be ousted.. with real election fraud exposure a dem sweep in '06 gives us house control.. then impeachment can begin! .. Stranger things have happened...

[vanboggie]

14. But how to move on without fixing the problem?

I am getting the Moveon, DNC, etc. etc. emails about planning for the next elections. I just can't get excited, and in fact don't see the point UNLESS this system is repaired.

I think all of our energies should go into pounding the election fraud problem until action is taken to correct it. Well, at least until they make this a mental illness, dope me up and leave me drooling in a corner, which has been mentioned by the fascists in power.

[Stevepol]

34. This is exactly the problem Vanboggie. The machines must be un-fixed.

For two years, I and many others wrote and lobbied for people to be aware of the voting maching scam and con game that was being played in the country, yelling that if the machines weren't made right (un-fixed), the election was lost no matter what else happened. Nobody paid the slightest attention until the election got closer. Then there were many articles and news bites and TV programs and so on about the problem, but now that the election is over, it's back to business as usual. Forget about the machines. I checked BuzzFlash yesterday and there was only one article in there about the machines. Befote the election, every other article was about the coming possibility of election fraud. Now the election is past; fraud is obvious, but nobody is looking at where the problem lies. WE HAVE TO WAKE UP AND KEEP THE FOCUS ON THE MACHINES. UNTIL THE VOTES ARE COUNTED PROPERLY NOTHING ELSE MATTERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[vanboggie]

40. Exact;ly - fix it or forget elections

As Conyers said, it doesn't take political science to figure out what is happening. Well, it doesn't take computer science to understand how easily voting machines and tabulating computers can be manipulated under the radar either. I don't know why more people cannot comprehend that. Good God, take an easy steal like that and mix it with Repukes owning the machines and it is a no brainer.

Democrats who want to "moveon" are deluding themselves.

[artv28]

43. I agree

My biggest problem with the Nightline story on election fraud was that they didn't talk about how vulnerable the machines are to hackers. I also don't recall any mention of who owns the machines.

[The Doctor.]

6. I love it, but I see a problem....

"All I have to do is persuade chairman Sensenbrenner that it is in all of our best interests and that he support it because he can unilaterally grant the hearings. I don’t need all of their support."

That sounds like one hell of a hurdle.

How will he 'Persuade' Sensenbrenner?

[KatieB]

9. How persuade? = Trade-offs

[The Doctor.]

19. I'm hoping. nt

[demodonkey]

12. How to Persuade? ...well you ARE in favor of fair voting and counting...

...all the votes, AREN'T YOU Mr. Sensenbrenner????

:evilgrin:

[The Doctor.]

18. It'd be nice if it were that easy.

"I cannot bridge something that will appear to be harrasment to the American people. Parading our elected official in front of them like criminals will not reflect well on the sanctity of our good offices.
Not to mention those pictures I have of a lovely vietnamese lad..."

If I know politics, it won't be easy.

(Why do I get the feeling 'Sensenbrenner' understands the 'young boy' reference...?)

[demodonkey]

21. This is one of the easiest issues to frame there ever was.

What politician in his or her right mind would come out AGAINST fair elections???

(And remember, if you're not with us, you must be with the _____________!)

[tommcintyre]

23. How to Persuade? Lead the parade, or get trampled underfoot

There may be something so compelling that it can't be ignored. Conyers sounded very confident. He didn't use any qualifiers like "try". I do think that the aggressive moves of the last couple of days by the anti-election fraud factions show something is afoot. The Ohio AG's move and the unprecedented exposure the Nightline show gave the issue is likely a sign of real trouble in "Roveville".

[The Doctor.]

28. I sure the damn hell hope so...

Thanks for the hope.

[liberalla]

30. I hope you're right!

I like what you wrote and I hope you're right! I SO want the truth to come out!

[Im with Rosey]

35. Help Conyers persuade Sensenbrenner

[e-mail] I sent an email to both this address and the judiciary 1/19. It might help if Sensenbrenner gets tons of mail! I don't expect much, but at least I am able to feel like I tried to help Conyers. If judiciary gets enough email they will know we are paying attention and we support Conyers.

[Jo March]

37. With our help

We need to pummel Sensenbrenner with letters, emails, faxes, etc.

[Griffy]

11. SUPERKICK .. read it.. Conyers is the real deal! nt

[Dancing_Dave]

15. I used to live in his district!

Yep, in DETROIT!:yourock:

[Tiggeroshii]

16. It's good to know he's on our side

I think it's good to know we stil have a decent, respectable official rooting for us, and it's good to know there's a well sized group of people rooting for him. All it takes is that we don't let up and we feed the fire till it's done. I'm thinking I feel good =)

[zann725]

32. That's what the word 'Democrat' use to mean...without apology.

It IS nice to know there are still those who honor it, and practice it tirelessly.

You heard it, he said it, they don't care if the Inauguration has taken place, they plan to move forward, and IF "criminal" things were done...

[kitkat65]

17. Should we be slamming Sensenbrenners office with e-mails and faxes?

[The Doctor.]

20. No... let them deal in earnest.

Tell me, when you were young and about to go clean up your room, and someone else told you to do it... did you feel like it?

What if you knew they would tell everyone you cleaned your room because they TOLD you to?

I know it's not sophisticated, but neither are politicians.

[FreepFryer]

22. Try a polite, well-written request for them to support Conyers' request...

it's EXACTLY what's called for. Please contact Congressman Sensenbrenner and make your opinions known, in a respectful but determined way!

24. Sounds reasonable.

But slamming him politely is still slamming.

I'll do it though. After all... I hear politics is a full-contact sport.

Thanks for the notion.

:D

[FreepFryer]

25. You don't have to slam him, just respect the office and ask him to...

...exercise his own judgment. Lots of Republiticians are corrupt, but by asking them to make their own decisions based on evidence or sources you cite (in this case, Rep. Conyers himself!) is the kind of thing that makes the politican think "Hmmm, behind this person are probably X more, etc. etc."

If you slam, they don't even finish the letter.

Great instinct to become involved - that's what's really important.

Believe in Yourself!

[The Doctor.]

26. Good point - the uncertainty of potential.

I pictured a hundred correspondences saying, "Do this thing." flooding his office.

It is my own failing that I haven't faith in a mass of people to exercise discretion.

I trust you get my point.

[kitkat65]

44. Perhaps "slamming" was a poor choice of words...

I just meant perhaps we should engage Sensenbrenner via faxes and e-mails a well-reasoned and respectful argument for believing he should seriously consider Conyers request.
