1. Recommending, for another look at this article.
If they could have, they certainly would have.

Hell, Bolton used the NSA to spy on other admin. officials (Powell?) in the run up to war.

2. Wow, Recommended
they are really getting the goods on this bunch of crooks.

"This is precisely the type of game George W. and his He-man authoritarian boy’s club would engage in. Recently, Professor Steve Freeman of Penn spoke at a New York election reform forum and told the audience that a third of the Kerry voters who showed up in exit polls in rural Republican-dominated areas simply don’t show up in the actual vote tally. Not just in Ohio, but throughout the nation".

4. Did NSA hack CBS's email before Bush AWOL story?
The Freepers and Buckhead or whatever fake name the Georgia lawyer used had an email of the documents not the actual photocopies, that was why there were spacing problems that they could exploit to claim they were not made on a typewriter.

How would you intercept an email? Tap CBS, Mary Mapes or Dan Rather's phone, knowing that they broke Abu Ghraib and were working on a story about election fraud in Florida.

Who was doing illegal wiretaps in fall 2004? The NSA.

I would assume that the NSA obtained those emailed documents and gave them to Rove until someone proves that they did not.

9. Ding. I'd say that's a hit right there.
And, I bet it opens the door to finding other "tells" that point to heretofore unthought of NSA intercepts.

5. This was authored by Arnebeck's co-counsel in the lawsuit
against the Hocking County Board of Elections.

10. Agreed - someone certainly hacked them
It wouldn't take the NSA to program those fraud machines - a high schooler could do it. There is no doubt NSA is a possibility, however.

Perhaps the Halliburton Happy Camps are being designed to contain not only dissenters, but the kool-aid drinkers (even on OUR side) who wake up to election fraud when the mid-terms are stolen.

12. NSA = Nothing Sacred Anymore "Take my vote, please!"
Edited on Mon Mar-27-06 11:43 AM by FULL_METAL_HAT

Of course!

EVERYBODY "chipped" in!

FBI, CIA, DHS, DOJ, DOS, DEA, ATF: Any organization with in-house intelligence or enforcement would have been corrupted by the craven political appointees put in charge.

I think the main use of the NSA has been to spy on the admin's REAL terror threat: the democratic party (and their own (R) boys too ... just to be on the safe side ;)) God knows that compared to spying on the Soviet's BILLIONS (trillions maybe) of electronic signals back in the day, that there's not a whole lot of SIGINT to be gotten from a few hundred (may a few thousand) people with an axe to grind against the US.

Perhaps Feingold's "LACK" of talking with other dems came from him having an old-fashioned Wisconsian gut feeling that any time the dems discussed stratergery, almost magically the repubs had perfect talking points to shoot them down before they could even stand up.

13. This needs to be repackaged into its own thread
