1. besides the war being a fraud, let's assume for a moment . . .

that two other things are true . . .

1. the 2004 election was stolen; and

2. some elements of BushCo facilitated 9/11 in some way(s).

where does that leave us? . . . because if they have this much power, and if the country is "going along to get along," I don't see how we can defeat them . . . they control everything but US, the people . . .

but we apparently don't count, and are nothing but speed bumps on their road to totalitarianism; annoyances in the pursuit of their "master plan" . . .

whatever the hell it is . . .

how do we beat 'em? . . .

2. Can the United States hold parallel elections?

It is perfectly within the legal rights and protected. I ask again, why has not one reporter and real federal investigator explored this document to its ends?

Not even on television anywhere, including the U.K. The supported evidence could draw out an entire array of abuses that extend past the last three elections, and confirm gross manipulation yet not one will touch it?

3. Thanks... brilliant column by Krugman...

It's on my blog. Something is going down, not sure what yet, but something is going down. I have believed all along that Kerry was continuing to investigate, these things take time... sad but true.

4. snippets of Krugman's article:

There was at least as much electoral malfeasance in 2004 as there was in 2000...

Our current political leaders would suffer greatly if either house of Congress changed hands in 2006, or if the presidency changed hands in 2008.

(therefore: )

The Republicans will be strongly tempted to make sure that they win those elections by any means necessary. And everything we've seen suggests that they will give in to that temptation.

5. Yes, I appreciate him writing about it and keeping the subject alive.
