Original message
I am currently being attacked by a crazy person
bent on "exposing me" as a freeper and part of the "conspiracy" against Bev Harris.

His name is John Dean and he has a diary up at Daily Kos lauding Bev as the "great American Hero" who is being maligned by the Forces of Evil™.

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2005/12/18/185734/69

He now claims that I am posting under two names at DU, this one (in which you can find my real name ith little effort) and the name "Neil B Forzod"

Here is his logic (you will have to go to the actual post to get his links):

http://www.dailykos.com/comments/2005/12/18/185734/69/79/post#here

David Allen is also Neil B Forzod on DU:

1. Go here and here, and run a "people search" on the name "Forzod" - there isn't a single person in the US with this name according to both searches.

2. Go hereand see David Allen's business website. His business is comics...has been for many years.

3. on the name Forzod(heck with a first name, just look for Forzod!) - besides the cache' of 2 DU entires, there is only one other hit of any value.

4. Check out the link on Forzod that was captured by Google 11 months ago.

5. Wow, it's Neil B Forzod, at doubledownfilms!

6. Go to "doubledownfilms.com."

7. Hey, it's a place about comics! It talks about Comicon and other stuff that David knows all about!

8. Google on Neil B, and comics!

9. Wow, Neil B. is a famous person in the comics world, author of such things as Imitation of Life, a very well-known series of comics!

10. David Allen IS Neil B Forzod. And this means that he is using a sockpuppet to bash successful hacking tests of Diebold. He is using a sockpuppet to criticize the Leon County tests! He is bashing not only Bev, but also Kathy Dopp of Open Voting Consortium, with a false name! And he is typing up a bunch of crap that people swallow because they don't know a lot about the machines.

David Allen aka Neil B Forzod has just destroyed his credibility in the world of BBV with his actions. No wonder he refuses to supply financial information. No wonder he constantly attacks Bev, always uninstigated.

The people of DU need to wake up and realize that they have been conned bigtime.


If anyone actually knows and can get in contact with the DUer Neil B Forzod, I would appreciate it. I really resent being accused of "conning" anyone.

109. She's still paranoid as ever I see
it's a shame really.. someone give her two valium and a scotch?

I respect what Bev has done to expose e voting, but I start to wonder when she freaks out anytime anyone else might share in the glory, she verbally rapes them and accuses them of all sorts of things. Remember Andy?

It's typical bullshit Drama with this club and it never stops.

4. Sorry to hear that.
Does he know that Bev Harris posts at Free Repbublic and was even a moderator there for awhile? So will the real freeper stand up?

I think many DUers were conned by Bev Harris. Does he know that? From what I understand, Bev has never accounted for the money raised to investigate the Ohio election results, which she blew off.

6. Oh wow. I did not know that.
I have looked at the Bev Harris threads, as a lurker, since her first days. And I've just sat there scratching my head in wonderment. However, knowing what you just posted, I now have my first real opinion of what she is all about. FR, huh? OK, I now know.

Thanks.

Weird. Really too much. A minefield of troublemakers.

18. It is MUCH, MUCH worse
The trouble is that the issue is complicated and most folks blow it off because of the amount of reading that must be done to ascertain the truth. But, for htose who actually spend a half hour, the story becomes crystal clear.

25. I was hoping to see that thread again.
And it's parallel to why America is in the situation it's in. Same thing exactly.

Misinformation spread by supposedly reputable sources. People not willing to spend the vast amount of time to unravel the lies. And people not being able to do so. Like me. But that's why we are together.

Thanks. I'm coming up to speed.

11. She raised that money after
swearing she had evidence that would blow the lid of the elections and prove they were rigged, if she could just get the money. She had a witness who would come forth when the time was right, but we all had to have patience, she had a document in her hands, etc... She had said the same thing several times before. IIRC, in her earlier days she started a group called "Protalion" to battle the bias of the media. Not sure what happened to that group. (I could be wrong, but I believe it was her). She has a gift for getting people's hopes up.

64. Personally, I think DU is being infiltrated by freepers.......
This is a much more conservative place than it was even a year ago. I don't believe the hype about so-called "moderates" simply voicing their opinions under our "big tent". It all depends on your opinions when you post. If you post conservative opinions at least half the time, you're a freeper as far as I'm concerned. Please--let's keep DU real. Don't we have enough freepers everywhere else in this country?

They are clever in not pushing the envelope too far. I post what I believe is true and I don't worry much about the freepers opinions to my posts except to question their views, politely, of course.

This poster at Kos is accusing David of also posting as that DU'er. Why, I'm not sure. The poster at Kos is called Bozos Rnot4 Bush aka John Dean. The DU'er Neil B. Forzod has nothing to do with it, except that he is also being attacked by this Bozo.

Frankly, I can't believe there are people who would buy the convoluted "proof" listed above. Reminds me of the witch proof in Monty Python's Holy Grail.

34. I am not a part of any of this, but I've been watching Bev
from the beginning -- years ago. Of course, what she said then made a lot of sense to me, and I supported her and donated. I heard her on Randi Rhodes shortly after the election and donated a lot -- for me anyway. But very shortly after that it all began falling apart.

And the HORRIBLE spiteful things she said about Andy after he got sick. AND she posts on FR!

Anyone who defends Bev at this point has either not been paying attention over the last year, or is up to something.

At the very least, she's someone who enjoys pitting people against each other, which is the last thing we need right now.

Bev, if you're reading this, I want my $200 back. :grr:

36. Despite Andy's working for Bev, I could never donate....
because after what she had done to you, David, I just did not trust her. Sadly, my reluctance was well founded.

I am sorry that you are still dealing with all this crap.

I really can't afford to donate much to anything, so when I do I have to be a hundred percent sure that it will be used for a good cause. There was that little voice that told me not to.

51. We ALL know this fool - Bozos4Bush - DU Banee
Part of a group of fools banned over the Wayne Madsen, Clint Curtis fiasco right on top of the Bev Harris fiasco after the 2004 election.

The man's a loon who has been banned from DU, myDD, dailyKos (and re-admitted, evidently) and even Bev's own site. He and that lapituar (sp?) did the Soap Opera of the Day at Bev's site for nearly a year.

56. Hey OH
I have been bogged down with everything under the sun on this end. Not ignoring you, but as you can see I haven't posted much to DU of late except when these topics flare and folks clue me to what's happening.

While I think I have been tied up with BBV in NC, plus mundane stuff like my personal life and business, I have apparently been busy running the Evil Kill a Cute Kitten Named Bev Harris Brigade.

59. It's all good
I know you have your hands full. It's good to see you back, though I'm really disturbed by the circumstances. I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that that diary was allowed to stand because Markos has his hands full now too. I know Kos doesn't think much of Bev at all. People who know you have got your back, so this kind of stuff will never go unanswered.

61. What gets me
is that he came over to my site (blackboxvoting.com) and started posting this crap. Everybody told me to ban him and delete it, but I have a policy of not deleting critcs, even nuts, unless they attack other people as opposed to me.

Try that on Bev's site. Try posting anything critical of her majesty and see how long you stay around.

Paranoid Pat is over there accusing me of posting as him on BBV.org. Never happened. He accuses me of "outing" him in Bev's book when it was Bev who wrote his name, not me. I didn't even know his real name.

Idiots.

65. Right. She expected Leon County to open the floodgates
of donations. And everyone gave Harri Hursti/Ion Sancho the appropriate credit, basically telling Bev to piss up a rope. And this is the reaction Bev has ALWAYS exhibited when the money is drying up - sending out her attack goons.

Last year at Christmas, she was working on killing Andy.

113. I think the situation is more complicated than just....
being credible vs. being non-credible. Dean's conspiracy theories may be a waste of time, but Madsen often points out interesting connections.

Remember this thread from January:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=203&topic_id=297594

It might have been too incredible to jump to the conclusion that Saudi money funded election fraud, but the connections he was making bore closer scrutiny. Recall that Feeney is also linked to Abramoff (who also is connected to Khashoggi) by virtue of his paid for trips to Scotland:

http://www.bradblog.com/archives/00001246.htm


But according to the LA Times -- surprise, surprise! -- Feeney is being identified as having taken expensive luxury golf trips to St. Andrews, Scotland on the tab of a Republican lobbying firm now under criminal investigation.

117. The problem I have with
such theories is that by and large they are an enormouse waste of time and do more to discredit us thatn help up.

Trying to prove such things is damned near impossible. A decent investigation into such a thing requires, lots of money, expertise, time and luck.

Meanwhile, we have Diebold code which shows unequicvocaly that the machines suck and can be tampered with.

I wish all the effort that went into chasing these various theories was concentrated on pressuring local government into outlawing the damned things.

We did it in NC and now we are trying to fight a court battle to retain our victory. If only these web sites would put their efforts toward getting out the troops in thise instance.

John Dean has made false accusations against many upright, good, honest people.

Can I get sued if I opine that he is nutty as a gawddammed fruitcake with extra cherries on top?

And as for Bev, she can rot in hell (after rotting in prison for the remainder of her days for Tax Evasion), as far as I am concerned.

After all, they both make giant leaps with tiny bits of information.

You know, like David has something to do with comic books, PJComix has something to do with comic books, Kneel Before Zod is a comic book character so they are ALL David. See.....giant leaps of logic.....with little to no facts.

That was, and still is, one of Bev's worst traits. Like this: One signed poll tape in the trash in Florida = massive election fraud proven throughout the state.......giant leaps of logic.

126. here you go
I give him points for actually ADMITTING error. That's a change.

Here is his post:

Three little snowballs of truth start to roll (none / 0)

I'm home sick to my stomach today from, I guess, the stress of battling "BASHBEV.COM" almost singlehandedly. Sometime today, I'll make a post a detailed analysis of Neil B Forzod.

But right now, I just want to point to a couple of things that give me hope...little snowballs of truth at DU in the past few hours against the trolls:

"Gary Beck", for those who don't know, has tirelessly worked on election fraud research for over a year. Owner of the site www.solarbus.org, he has distributed CDs to many seed planters about the subject, and has a great reputation at DU. I urge folks to visit his site, and perhaps help distribute his CD.

Gary is now being attacked as a Bev Bot. I can only LOL.

"I see Bev people...everywhere!"

Chi, a poster I am unfamiliar with at DU, has just noticed that "da tapes! da tapes!" have been posted at "BBV.org" for six months, negating something he was led to believe by the "BASHBEV.COM" team.

Hopefully Chi will start to learn the truth about a lot more things.

I've also just discovered evidence that now leads me to believe that David Allen is probably not Neil B Forzod. As I've mentioned over and over, my goal is the truth, above all other things. I'm not a Bev Bot. There's no doubt that Neil, who claims to be with "the government," knows enough about the machines to razzle dazzle folks with posts, and there's no doubt he is up to no good, and not a single member of "BASHBEV.COM" has called him out, wondered aloud who he is, wondered aloud why he bashed the Leon County hacking tests, etc. These are all important points to make.

But it appears that Neil might not be David Allen, the team captain of "BASHBEV.COM," unless he's composing messages and then copying/pasting them to DU. By 12/17 I had already warned David on his website, so it's possible, but doubtful, that the following message was crafted prior to posting:

This message is stamped 12/17 7:04 PM EST, and I had already discovered a Kelvin Mace post stamped 12/17 7:01 PM. I do not believe anyone could write the message from scratch in three minutes. The mistake I just made in research is one I will not make again...my good friend Luaptifer is gonna give me hell for not employing all aspects of the scientific method on this. lol

So David Allen is probably not Neil B Forzod, and I apologize to David for believing that they were one and the same. I will take immediate steps to notify people who support me in my search for the truth of this discovery.

I also want to hold out a carrot, in hopes that David might at least think about what I am about to say...

David, let's forget for a moment all your various reasons for constantly attacking Bev, and anyone who posts in support of her.

There was a time more than a year ago that I believed you were on "the good side." Perhaps you always were. Perhaps you too are a victim, but not in the way you've come to believe. I ask you to try to rethink everything. You and Bev were involved together in some pretty dangerous shit in the early days. Is it possible that all of you have been manipulated into what is going on today? Is it possible that someone like Neil, for example, influenced certain events, that triggered responses from you, from Bev, and led things down a path to where we are now?

Is it possible that we're all victims?

I ask that you think about this. I ask you to research Neil yourself. Who is this guy? How and why did he show up at DU? How does he appear to know so much? Were there others long ago like him? Is he really on the good side?

I'm going to refrain from posting any further for now, in hopes that you will at least consider my points.




Now, if you think that's funny, read this:

In retrospect, David is correct. (none / 0)

It was David who had originally downloaded the stash of Diebold memo's and Bev was initially against it for the reason David states.

This information was deliberately kept confidential at the time at David's request and for his own safety. He really is an unsung hero in that regard considering the ultimate importance those documents have played in exposing Diebold and their business practices. Had he not ignored Bev, we might never have seen them.

It took real courage for him to download them at a time when BBV.org was under attack for hosting the source code and was under investigation for supposedly attempting to hack the VoteHere web site.

I'm glad to see David finally taking long overdue credit for his vital role in obtaining those documents.

Bev had actually confided to me David's role in this some time ago. This is the first time that I can recall seeing David admit that it was he who had downloaded the files from the server so I assume it's OK for me to confirm it.

Downloading source code from an unprotected public server is one thing, but downloading thousands of sensitive, password protected internal documents, at great risk of arrest, took balls and I salute him for it.

I can fully understand and appreciate why he would have wanted his participation kept quiet. Until those documents had gained enough exposure to establish that they presented evidence of fraud, whoever downloaded them was at great risk of being arrested for the theft of confidential company documents. Had an arrest taken place before the documents were released to the wild, it would have meant really big trouble for whoever was caught.

Sometimes the difference between a 'thief' and a 'whistle blower' can be a mighty fine line.

I also have to give Bev props for having propagated the set of documents and can fully understand why she would be reluctant to host them, possibly inviting a third DMCA inspired shutdown of the BBV.org server over a fairly short time period.

I would never attempt to frame David's very legitimate concerns by saying that he "feared arrest, so he let other people take the risk". I know that's not really how it was. I'm a little curious as to why he chose to frame Bev's actions that way though.

I give credit where credit is due. Both David and Bev are heroes for their respective roles in those documents seeing the light of day. Neither one of them deserve any flack for what they didn't do at the time. What really matters is that they both did what they did at the time and it unquestionably helped to get us to where we are today.

Those documents have proven to be one of the best things that has happened to this movement and all who were involved in obtaining them, spreading them around, hosting them and analyzing them deserve all our thanks.

Thanks for clearing that up David. I humbly stand corrected. Take a bow, you've more than earned it.

Pat A. Vesely ;-)

129. Well he's changed his mind
Apparently you are back on his "persons of interest" list. And a master of the cut and paste as well. :D

131. That is Bev herself posting - no doubt at all. I recognize her voice.
And apparently she is trying to get you arrested. If she ever was on the side of free and fair elections she has gone completely over to the dark side now. I think it's time to make requests to the IRS or the WA Secy of State or whoever administers 501(c)(3) non-profits - I want to finally see her books. How does one go about that? Anybody know?

132. 501(c)(3) is a federal designation
I'll found out how to go about it. I'm surrounded by CPA's, of both the tax and audit varieties.

The IRS and the non-profit themselves are required to disclose financial information to anyone who asks.

Your written request to the IRS should include the name of the organization, the year and the type of return. Send the letter here:

Commissioner of Internal Revenue
Attn: Freedom of Information Reading Room
1111 Constitution Avenue, NW
Washington, DC 20224

edited to add link to the IRS. There is cost involved in obtaining documents:

I couldn't find much online.

I remember Andy wrote that the corporation habitually filed returns late. Just how late they are will be interesting to find out.

135. oh thanks! I found them registered at the IRS but I can't locate reports
Seems they are required to file a "Nonprofit Corporation Annual Report" in the same month that they were first incorporated. I'm not sure if they file with feds or state. Still searching.

138. There should be 941s quarterly (employment taxes), and a yearly 940
Maybe schedule B's too. I can get a list of important documents to request if you need them.

141. Okay. So they are required to file if their income exceeds $25,000
I just spoke to IRS. They have no 990 on file for BBV. The other forms you mention are not available for public disclosure. The 990 would be available after they file. They must file by the 15th day of the 5th month after their fiscal year ends. The IRS can not tell me when BBV's fiscal year ends. She suggested I call BBV up and ask them.

It doesn't show the fiscal year, but I did call the SoS once to get info. Now, at the time I was looking for info on their articles of incorporation so I let the other stuff blow right by me. I know, stupid mistake, I should've written it all down.

145. From Guidestar >
3. Why can't I find a 990 for the organization that interests me?
If there isn't a Form 990 and eDocs link in the right column of the report page, we don't have a Form 990 for that organization. There are several reasons why we might not have Forms 990 for an organization:

* The organization is not required to file. (See question 6)
* The organization is newly formed and has not filed yet.
* The organization has not filed yet for the year. (See question 8)
* The organization has filed but we haven't received the return from the IRS. (See question 10)
* The organization is not a 501(c)(3) organization, and we haven't received its Form 990 from the IRS yet. (See question 11)

* Back to Top

4. What is IRS Form 990?
Form 990 is an annual reporting return that certain federally tax-exempt organizations must file with the IRS. It provides information on the filing organization's mission, programs, and finances.

* Back to Top

5. What organizations are required to file Form 990?

* With some exceptions (see question 6), federally tax-exempt nonprofits that have incomes of more than $25,000
* All 501(c)(3) private foundations, regardless of income

* Back to Top

6. Which organizations are not required to file Form 990?
In general:

* Nonprofits that have not received tax-exempt status from the IRS
* Most faith-based organizations
* Nonprofits with incomes of $25,000 or less
* Subsidiary organizations

For specific exceptions, see the instructions for Forms 990 and 990-EZ.

* Back to Top

7. What is the difference between Form 990, Form 990-EZ, and Form 990-PF?

* Form 990-PF is the form that all 501(c)(3) private foundations and 4947(a)(1) non-exempt charitable trusts must file; only those types of exempt organizations use Form 990-PF.
* Form 990-EZ is the "short form" for other 990 filers; exempt nonprofits with incomes of less than $100,000 and total assets of less than $250,000 may file Form 990-EZ, although they are allowed to file Form 990 if they prefer.
* Form 990 is the "long form" that other 990 filers with incomes of more than $100,000 or assets above $250,000 must file.

* Back to Top

8. What is the deadline for filing a 990?
There is no one date on which all Forms 990 must be submitted to the IRS. Instead, a nonprofit's filing date is determined by the end of its fiscal year (the 12-month period for which the organization plans the use of its funds); each filing organization is required to file "by the 15th day of the 5th month after" its fiscal year ends.

Organizations can also receive up to two 90-day extensions of time to file. (Like the 990, the extension request form is a public document and is posted on the GuideStar site.) Thus, the Form 990 for a nonprofit whose fiscal year ended on December 31, 2004, might not be filed until November 15, 2005:

Accounting Period 990 Due Date Due Date with 1 Extension Due Date with 2 Extensions
1/1/04-12/31/04 5/15/05 8/15/05 11/15/05

They are incorporated June 2004. They can say that their fiscal year ends in any month they choose, but does it have to end within a year of the date of their incorporation?

147. Okay - they were due to file by November 15 of this year.
Edited on Thu Dec-22-05 01:13 PM by Stephanie
I got someone more helpful at the IRS this time. The 990 is not available, but he said that doesn't mean they didn't file. He said it might take some time for the 990 to become available at the IRS, possibly a few months, so at the latest it should be available mid-January. If they filed for an extension, that form should be available in January and the 990 would be due five months later - April 15.

On the Citizen Spook blog "Scott McClellan" mentions that he thinks John, et. al., work for Operation Mockingbird. Could that be what WATR is all about? I don't necessarilly side with Scotty, but the same thought crossed my mind.

130. Bev Harris was probably a plant
to distract us from really getting at the heart of black box voting. I'm sick of hearing about her, as her 10 minutes of fame are way over.

And if she wasn't a plant, what sorry excuses she came up with for misuing funds and stopping her fight.

140. Here's a reluctant kick.
I urge everyone who is interested in this issue not to feed the insanity. Don't just be a voice on the screen -- ground yourself in the real world by attending public meetings and introducing yourself to others.

These threads can make you crazy trying to decide what's true, and what's not, or who speaks with a true voice, and who doesn't. Groups seeking to restrict your civil rights and freedoms benefit from this confusion, and in some cases they actively provoke this confusion.

Strive to be one of the places where the madness stops.
