Dear Senators Boxer, Byrd, Dayton, Harkin, Jeffords, Kennedy, Leahy, Levin, Lieberman, Mikulski, Obama, Snow and Schumer:
The ideal of one person, one vote and that everyone’s vote is counted has been deeply cherished in the United States of America since the Anti-Slavery Movement, the Women’s Suffrage Movement, the Civil Rights Movement and the expansion of voting to young people. The 2000 and 2004 presidential elections have made it clear that this precious cornerstone of American democracy has been destroyed.
We the undersigned, respectfully request that you take action as a Senator to recognize that the November 2, 2004 presidential election was fraught with voting violations, misconduct of some highly placed election officials, tampering, voter suppression, interference targeted at communities of people of color, students, and poor people – all of which has raised suspicions in many minds that this was not a free, fair and honest election.
Given the widespread use of electronic voting machines, which are especially liable to malfunction and fraud and leave no trace of how they work nor what data they receive, it is not possible to perform recounts in many states. Hundreds of stories on malfunctions of electronic voting machines and central tabulation machines are appearing in regional news media.
Papers and sworn testimonies by experts state that the chances of the exit polls giving such divergent results from the official tallies are almost a statistical impossibility. Nor is it statistically conceivable that practically all the reported malfunctions and errors would give the advantage to the same candidate. Furthermore, statistical analysis reveals that even the popular vote victory may turn out to be false.
To preserve democracy in the United States of America, we ask that you be open to the concerns of large numbers of Americans. Almost 57,000 complaints have thus far been filed about this election process. Recounts are being demanded in several states. In the critical states of Ohio and Florida, hard evidence of improprieties is accumulating daily, almost always in the same direction and substantial enough to be outcome-determinative.
In Ohio, Secretary of State Kenneth Blackwell, who is avowedly partisan as the Co-Chair for the Bush/Cheney campaign, has used his official powers illegally to hinder the recount process in Ohio in many ways. He has also refused to cooperate with the Democratic Party members of the House of Representatives Judiciary Committee in its hearing headed by Representative Conyers. One example of many equally egregious problems in the Ohio election was a severe shortage of voting machines in precincts of people of color and students at colleges, leading to waits of up to 10 hours for voters to cast their ballot.
We call on you to review the evidence. We are asking you to be our voice. We think this is crucial for the future of democracy and this country and we hope you will respond to our plea.
We are keenly aware that no Senator was willing to stand with the Representatives of the Congressional Black Caucus in their challenge to the presidential election of 2000. In 2004 the evidence of fraud is systemic, stronger, more widespread and believed by millions of Americans. We urge you to be courageous by taking leadership and refusing to certify the results of the presidential election of 2004. We also urge you to voice open support for any formal objections from the House of Representatives and to sign with them if any House members challenge the 2004 presidential election.
Oh yeah, and supposdely the DUmmies are gonna have over a million people in DC on that day to protest. I wonder if it's gonna be anything like the one they had in Ohio a few weeks ago outside the state capitol when the Ohio Electors casted their votes. DU said there would be hundreds of thousands there and I think all of 30 people showed up.
Pathetic, just pathetic.
Why does the left always use the word "million" when describing their protests? They never come anywhere near that number!!
They're good for a giggle aren't they?
I can't believe they managed to type something without using the F-word once.
Are we starting this all over again? They're so pathetic.
I can't effing believe you said that. You oughta be effing strung up and effing hung out to dry. You effing, sexist, homophobic, conservative, effing pig you. :) Hehehe!
it's their DUmbed down educational system.
to them 30 is 1 million.
FREAKIN" MORONIC STUPID HUMAN WASTE LOSER SCUM!
GET A LIFE OTHER THAN LIVING WITH MOM AND DAD AND EATING BEAN SPROUTS PUNK AS BASTA*DS
When this fails (as it must), their next trick is to try to impeach the president on some half truth or made up charge. We will once again hear the LSM talk about how "it's not the evidence that matters, it is the seriousness of the charge".
This is all so much B. S. Had Kerry won (thank God he didn't) there wouldn't have been any cries of election fraud, and with the overwhelming number of voters in this election, the same issues still would have been there, long lines, turning people away, etc.
It looks like Blackwell is 2004s Katherine Harris to the DUmmies.
I didn't read the rant verbatim, but I think that they also got a private school English professor to correct their spelling, as well.
Might as well be considering how the MSM media covers these things. You could have 10 million conservatives show up at a rally and the ten liberals who protest it will get more coverage.
I'm surprised. They used capitalization and even had paragraphs at timely moments. This is fascinating, especially coming from the direct descendents of the Cro-magnon man. :)
My favorite was the introduction of Burger King's Whopper. ("Have it your way, have it your way...")
I almost feel inclined to drive up to my old stomping grounds in DC and show up wearing my "W Still the President" t-shirt and hat just to mock them...
I think they learned their arithmetic and counting from the Minister Farakhan. Just multiply by 19 sufficient times and lo! and behole!
A million!!!
