Coming up on CNN "Is it a myth that the 04 Election Ran Smoothly?"

[noclonyofthechimp]

Will have some political activist on who will be interviewed to answer the ????????

[IAMREALITY]

1. Thank You

Sounds like good coverage so far.

Ralph Neads?

Says the Blackwells, Glenda Hoods, and Jeb Bushes have a common pattern of this voter surpression.

He's talking about the widespread complaints, 40,000, and that was only from 2% of the precincts and is only the tip of the iceberg.

Really respectful coverage right now, I must say.

Oh well, that was over quickly. Not bad though, but was looking forward to it being longer.

3. Thanks - this on now??

[noclonyofthechimp]

I thought so, also. I spelled his name wrong I was so excited to post

it so everyone could watch. Notice the big question...again.."Are you saying this could overturn the election?"

[Wordie]

13. LOL I know what you mean about posting the tv links. You want to help

everyone to see it, and in the meantime, you miss half of what is said!

[noclonyofthechimp]

17. Exactly! Then the phone rang so I missed most of what I posted

about!!

2. Update us

some don't have TV at work

[me b zola]

15. He brought up the major issues that we are yelling about...

vote suppression, voter intimidation, and need for a verifiable paper trail so that ALL votes will be counted. Judy kept asking him if this isn't a partisan movement caused by unhappiness at the results of the election. He calmly answers that his group is nonpartisan, and their only desire is for every Repub, Dem, and Ind. to be able to vote and have their vote counted.

TRUTH IS ON THE MARCH!!

16. Sorry, these guys beat me to it. I caught the end question. I got a

biz call. I will try and get the transcript from CNN's web-site.

[Pirate Smile]

4. Ralph Nees of People for the American Way - talking about voter

suppression in urban areas because of limited voting machines.

"We need to be the model of Democracy, not the model of Hypocracy."

[Razorback_Democrat]

5. Suburbia won't care about that, but it's a start n/t

[Pirate Smile]

8. He is talking about it as an Equal Protection violation of the

Constitution and that "we may be going to court to contest the electors in Ohio."

JW mentioned a Repug Congressman who may hold hearings in the next Congress. He was all for that and emphasized the bipartisan nature of his complaints.

[sepia_steel]

7. DAMMIT!!!

I only caught his last answer. Can anyone brief us?

[noclonyofthechimp]

9. That was friggin great!!!!!!

[DemonFighterLives]

6. He mentioned Jeb B*sh and Katherine Blackwell and one other lady

Judy Woodruff thought it was a Democratic witch hunt and brought up Bob Ney. She never mentioned the faux quote, just that Ney was going to investigate next year-- possibly.

[DemonFighterLives]

10. Neas said that poor areas had one machine for 200 people

While better areas had a machine for every 100 people. Could be an equal access issue.

[rumpel]

11. She tried to make it sound a Democratic effort

which he denied. "It is a non partisan effort".
also. "it is not to overturn the election, just to make every vote is counted"
She never even mentioned Conyers' Forum.
Short, but maybe it is a start.

[idealista]

19. logic skills atrophied in Judy's reasoning

Hearing about Judy Wooddruff's attitude really pisses me off. here are two things I would like to say to her and all the others who claim Demo's are only complaining because they "lost" the election:

One - If Rebublicans had to wait 6 hours to vote, or found their names purged from the voting lists, or found their candidate always the victim of every computer glitch, THEY WOULD BE COMPLAINING JUST AS LOUD. It didn't happen to THEM! And why not?

Two - The whole PURPOSE of keeping democrats from voting by a multitude of means was TO SWING THE ELECTION! They SUCCEEDED! THey will not complain, and they will do everything possible to avoid an open and timely analysis of what happened. This is to be expected, and only proves they have something to hide! The fact Republicans are NOT INTERESTED is the very clue that if the media were doing their job they be after this like hounds on a scent. Instead, they are acting like, "gee the thief hasn't shown any interest in being arrested, must be he thinks its all OK - no story here."

OF COURSE ITS A "DEMOCRATIC EFFORT" - THE DEMOCRATS JUST GOT SCREWED.

Maybe if our heroes who get media exposure would come out and say, the evidence suggests this was not accidental - there was a deliberate attempt to prevent Democrats from voting, and having their vote counted. "Perhaps the ethical Republicans are too appalled and embarrassed to admit this could have happened."

20. Republicans would have been screaming

and marching and fighting in the streets and the supreme court.

They fight for what they believe in.
Sad to say, we roll over and go back to sleep.

Not all of us but enough of us to make them believe we don't care enough for them to worry at all.

12. PFAW is one of the groups that filed suit in OH n/t

[noclonyofthechimp]

bucks to this great web-site!

[noclonyofthechimp]
