Rig My Election, Please
Just how far will desperate Republicans go to trick America into another BushCo victory?

by Mark Morford


"Semi-clever, ultra-wealthy Bush supporters suddenly donating piles of money to the Nader campaign in an obvious attempt to steal votes from John Kerry? Pshaw. Ptouey. Child's play. Tip of the iceberg. A mere distraction...There is a sense of lawlessness, of desperation, among the Republican party right now... We ain't seen nuthin' yet...

So then, let this be a warning. Get ready...Karl Rove and the cutthroat BushCo war hawks and corporate cronies who run the show aren't about to go down without a screaming, sickening, fiery fight.

And if BushCo has proven anything in the past four violent, budget-gutting, honor-molesting, nearly unbearable years, it's that there ain't no international law that can't be broken, no fear synapse that can't be hammered to death, no fraudulent power tactic that can't be abused. Anything is possible. You have been warned. God bless America"

3. "You have been warned." Let's take the warning seriously.

Organizing for November is important not only because we can (and should) win but also because we need to be prepared if the Bushistas assault our Democracy again as they did in 2000.
