Posted: 8/8/04 at 11:11pmDoes anyone else think that it's a bit sad we need our elections monitored as if we were some newly democratized third-world nation?
re: International team to monitor presidential election#4
Posted: 8/9/04 at 2:57amSad or not, it's necessary. I've never seen our country closer to becoming a dictatorship. Hollywood people are losing offers and being blackballed for opposing "Bushism." It's no different than those who were arrested for opposing "Peronism" We stick our nose in the business of everyone else, maybe it's time someone sticks their nose into ours. Sorry, but with Bush's sleezy tactics, this is the only way to ensure that THIS election won't be fixed the way the last one was.

Posted: 8/9/04 at 11:51amThis is a sovereign country. I don't want France, Germany, Libya, Haiti, etc. etc. overseeing our election. It's revolting to me. That's my opinion.

Posted: 8/9/04 at 3:26pmI so find this amusing. Can we put Nobel Peace Prize winner Jimmy Carter in charge?

Why can't we stop demeaning and undermining this country in the eyes of the world? Give me the name of one just one official who ordered that no black democrat be allowed to vote in Florida's election. It's all spin and nothing can be substantiated. The media, however, announced that Gore was the projected winner and many of the people residing in the Florida Panhandle did not vote as a result of this. Over 1000 registered
republicans felt their votes were useless.

Posted: 8/9/04 at 8:25pmThirdrow, that's their own damn fault. It's one thing to decide, "Meh, I won't vote after all," and it's quite another to be told the polls are closed when they're not.

Posted: 8/9/04 at 9:23pmWhere is the proof that people were denied their right to vote? That's all I'm asking. No one has ever been charged and no one's name has ever been even remotely connected with this crime.

Posted: 8/9/04 at 10:01pmDemocrats claim they wanted every vote counted and yet they tried to deny servicemen and women the right to vote in 2000 via absentee ballots. Since they thought they would go for Bush they tried to have them disallowed.

Where is your proof, thirdrow? pot kettle, darlin'
Here is mine:
(from http://www.michaelmoore.com/warroom/f911notes/index.php?id=16)
The Florida Department of State awarded a $4 million contract to the Boca Raton-based Database Technologies Inc. (subsidiary of ChoicePoint). They were tasked with finding improperly registered voters in the state’s database, but mistakes were rampant. “At one point, the list included as felons 8,000 former Texas residents who had been convicted of misdemeanors.” St. Petersburg Times (Florida), December 21, 2003.
Database Technologies, a subsidiary of ChoicePoint, “was responsible for bungling an overhaul of Florida’s voter registration records, with the result that thousands of people, disproportionately black, were disenfranchised in the 2000 election. Had they been able to vote, they might have swung the state, and thus the presidency, for Al Gore, who lost in Florida. Oliver Burkeman, Jo Tuckman, “Firm in Florida Election Fiasco Earns Millions from Files on Foreigners,” The Guardian, May 5, 2003 http://www.guardian.co.uk/usa/story/0,12271,949709,00.html. See also, Atlanta-Journal-Constitution, May 28, 2001.
In 1997, Rick Rozar, the late head of the company bought by ChoicePoint, donated $100,000 to the Republican National Committee. Melanie Eversley, “Atlanta-Based Company Says Errors in Felon Purge Not Its Fault,” Atlanta Journal-Constitution, May 28, 2001. Frank Borman of Database Technologies Inc. has donated extensively to New Mexico Republicans, as well as to the Presidential campaign of George W. Bush. Opensecrets.org, “Frank Borman.”

And that doesn't even include the heavily black districts in Florida that Jeb Bush had police roadblocks set around to discourage black voters from going to the polls.
I'm sorry you don't believe it, but the truth is that Florida was stolen last election and with the help of the presidents brother. But why expect anything less from a Bush? Granddaddy had dealings with the Nazis. Daddy pardoned everyone in the Iran/Contra affair before his part was made public, and we all know about George the Second. What a disgusting family.
