Is the FBI investigating any part of this election fraud?
Edited on Sun Dec-19-04 11:25 AM by madison2000
and if not, why not?
When people are asking to impound voting machines, it seems like it is not such a good idea for someone who is not a part of law enforcement to be doing this.

3. If the FBI is investigating anyone
its the people and groups who are fighting for the truth about election fraud, and probably not the people or groups responsible for it. If the last four years of their activity are any indication anyway.

4. The FBI is crooked
The democrats areested are from Iowa, I believe. I think they may have voted twice. They REFUSED to accept criminal complaints from dems. Totally disgusting. We certainly cannot count on them.

5. Those idiots
from Funny Boys Incorporated can't find their own asses if they had hold of it with both hands. If by some fluke they did find it they wouldn't know what to do with it.:nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke:

6. Conyers sent the FBI a letter requesting an investigation.
I'm sure they sent it to the 'round file'.

8. The FBI: FUCK BBV INVESTIGATIONS

In the old Collier brothers' book, Votescam, they took proof of election fraud to the FBI. Nothing was done. I'm sure that in informing the FBI, Conyers was just going through the formalities and didn't expect any action. He knows the score.

We'll never know if the FBI issued a terror alert that let Blackwell lock down the ballot counting, and then denied it afterwards. Of course Blackwell might have made it all up. We're in the land of plausible deniability here.

13. That's the story the MSM should be asked to checkout.
For the FBI to refuse to even make a pretense of investigating Democrats complaints, while vigorously prosecuting those filed by Republicans, is outrageous.

15. Ashcroft's revenge
The FBI went in to heavily scrutinize Missouri of which Ashcroft complained bitterly in 2000 before getting the AG job and being told to let it go. Hah. Cleaner than ever, the FBI yet is raking St. Louis over the coals.

There are so many scandals involved in the topdown handling of the FBI, abuses, impersonations, etc. that they could go into total meltdown should the very idea of legality and accountability come up. This is worse than the Hoover days in a way because outside of the departing Big A there is no clear malevolent tyrant to pin it all on. Individual agents as usual are hamstrung by the corrupted chain of command AND the FBI is mainly an investigative body. As with the intelligence gathered by the CIA the WH decides what to do about it. Shrug.

On the local level with the "which judge is a GOP stooge game" and byzantine political protection there is no easy recourse to justice or law. It is selective anarchy and those doing the selecting are the old familiar faces.
