God I've been trying to find people on DU or are either in athens or at UGA. I've been trying to get some stuff organised but feel like I'm the only one.

How are you? I've been to busy to post much on DU lately. We'll have to have another Athens DU meetup! I had a great time meeting everyone at the last one! :hi: Go Dawgs! :)
PS: The OP was tombstoned so he or she will not be responding. For some reason, we've have a huge number of trolls in the GA Forum in the lst few months.

I've been very good lately how about yourself?
I had been trying to get people on campus together for 9/11 to do some 9/11 Truth protesting but my results were pretty lackluster.
Have you seen the film American Blackout? It is all about Cynthia's efforts to expose the gross election fraud in Texas and Florida in the 2000 and 2004 elections.

First, the film was absolutely amazing. I have tried to research as much as possible what happened in Florida and was aware of "felons" being added to black lists. What I was not aware of, that the film pointed out, was that these lists came from different states(texas) and that the company that compiled the list only required an 80% match to the name. Absolutely unbelievable!
Second, McKinney is an increadably good speaker and she is truly stands for what she believes in. I think that there are a lot of people in Washington who don't stand for what they talk about and don't listen to the people who put them in power. It is refreshing to think there are people like her who are in public service who are digging for the truth and asking real questions. I know that I will do whatever I can to try and put her back into a seat in Washington should she decide to run again.
Third, I think McKinney was fantastic in dealing with the two stooges in their home made T-shirts. The question posed really didn't make sense to me and it was clear that the questioner did not bother to listen to the film as he completely failed to grasp the concept of the movie.
Anyone else from tonight? Thoughts?
