2. What the hell did I miss, CStheT? |
|
Please tell me what the hell is going on. It sounds like you're saying that ShrubCo is tampering with the Venezuelan elections; is there any proof of this? And since when do they use touchscreens?

6. I am grossly uninformed on this subject. |
|
Do you have any resources for me to develop some background knowledge on this?

3. I got a curious email from the hurricane center |
|
I hope it's ok to post it here and get everyones thoughts on it. I'll just post the pertinent parts.
<snip> WTNT45 KNHC 160237 TCDAT5 TROPICAL STORM EARL DISCUSSION NUMBER 10 NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL 11 PM EDT SUN AUG 15 2004 IF NOT FOR THE GOVERNMENT OF VENEZUELA THIS PROBABLY WOULD HAVE BEEN THE LAST ADVISORY ON EARL...AT LEAST FOR NOW. THE RECONNAISSANCE AIRCRAFT SCHEDULED TO INVESTIGATE EARL THIS EVENING WAS DENIED ACCESS TO VENEZUELAN AIRSPACE. HAD THEY BEEN ABLE TO GET TO THE STORM...I DOUBT THEY WOULD HAVE FOUND A CLOSED CIRCULATION...AS THE QUIKSCAT AMBIGUITIES AT 22Z LOOK MORE LIKE AN OPEN WAVE. HOWEVER...THERE IS ENOUGH DOUBT TO KEEP ADVISORIES GOING UNTIL THE NEXT AIRCRAFT ARRIVES TOMORROW MORNING...AND INDICATIONS ARE THAT THAT MISSION WILL BE ALLOWED TO PROCEED.
Does anyone think this is rather strange?

The reason I asked about this email is could it be they are afraid the US is spying or what? I don't put anyting past BushCo.
Edit to add, my husband said the same thing. He said it was very contradictory.

9. This Election Has Been Weighing on My Mind All Day |
|
I've prayed several times that the will of the people prevails. Keeping the polls open late can only bode well for Hugo Chavez.
