He along with Sheila Jackson Lee have already demanded forensic examination of the voting machines!

5. Go, Jesse!! God sustain you!! |

It breaks my heart to hear this history! The blood of the righteous cries out! The 1964 Voting Rights Act! "A line from Selma right to Ohio!"
Oh, God help us, God lift all these voices into real power in America!!
Hey--and MY Congressman is there--Jesse, Jr! :-)

This will be one of those speeches that our grandkids will watch as they study how the American people ignored folks like Jackson as we slid into fascism.

14. That is EXACTLY the problem. |
|
This hearing marks "official" start of the battle; However, without Kerry we are marching into war with plenty of bullets but no guns.
If Kerry jumps on board, we have hope. I don't believe that Kerry will do it.

I've never heard him sound so thoroughly informed, centered, or well measured in his delivery. He's not going to let this go ". . .with a shrug." Really impressive.

Jesse's there. He always has been.

17. I'm at work and can't listen to/watch this hearing... |
|
but I'm sitting at my desk reading these posts right now and fighting back tears. I am so proud to be on the side that is standing up for the truth at this moment. No matter what shit Rove tries to fling at us, stand tall, people. Tell it like it is. And remain firm in your conviction. Let them spin themselves into oblivion. The American people have a pretty good bullshit detector -they just need access to the information. And hopefully today's hearing will blow that door wide open so people can see that the niggling doubt in their mind about this election's legitimacy has a basis in a reality. Let's fight the tyranny and corruption and take our country back from these fascist crooks!!!

23. My favorite quote of his today |
|
after he was getting choked up, "It's just not right."
No, what we have here is something going on-and it's not right at all.
