DUmmieland is in an uproar because the Leftwing TomPaine.Com website published an article claiming that there was NO vote fraud conspiracy in Ohio. This is heresy in the eyes of the DUmmies because one of their most treasured beliefs is that the EVIL Republicans STOLE the election by rigging the votes in Ohio. One side effect of this belief is that it made Bev Harris a very rich woman since she scammed the DUmmies for at least $300,000 by making them think she was only $10 away from proving vote fraud in Ohio. There are actually two DUmmie threads expressing their OUTRAGE over the TomPaine.Com article. The first THREAD is titled, "’What Didn't Happen in Ohio’ This article DEMANDS a response!” and the second THREAD is simply titled, “TomPaine.com: What didn't happen in Ohio.” Both these threads have the typical lunatic DUmmie responses so both will be DUFUed. As usual, the rantings of the DUmmies unable to let go of their sacred Ohio vote fraud beliefs are in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, with $10 in his pocket that he did NOT send to Bev Harris, is in the [brackets]:
“For casting doubt on the conspiracy theory, TomPaine.com and I received virtual barrels of e-mail, most from angry anti-Bush activists who could not believe that their hard work had been for naught. I also heard from Steven Freeman, a University of Pennsylvania professor and author of a widely cited study that served as the primary basis for the pro-theft-theory folks, The Unexplained Exit Poll Discrepancy . His remarks, and my response to them, appeared on TomPaine.com.”
[For casting doubt on the Ohio vote fraud conspiracy, I brand you a HERETIC!!! Let the Auto Da Fe begin!]
“Privately, I heard from many Democratic officials, election reform advocates and analysts from inside Ohio and elsewhere, who believed my reporting to be accurate, and who were more than a little perturbed by the frenzy, which they found a counterproductive distraction from the serious ongoing effort to reform election practices. Since the debate refuses to die, this seems a good time to trumpet the arrival of not just one, but two, new technical analyses that cast further doubt upon the conspiracy theories out there. The author of the first is an earnest young fellow in San Diego named Rick Brady.”
[Privately I’ve heard that the only loons left believing in the Ohio vote fraud conspiracy are the DUmmies and Teh-RAY-suh Heinz.]
”So, absent the emergence of true polling methodology experts screaming theft, we may reasonably conclude that no evil genius rigged the results. Instead, what we experienced was probably an amalgam of system failings, miscalculations, incompetence, and, in some cases, the variably successful exertions of biased election officials. These are, at worst, symptoms of gaming the system, a deplorable practice hardly limited to this election or, historically, to one party. The anomalies being cited, including by Christopher Hitchens—apparently without any notable independent verification—in a widely cited Vanity Fair piece, may prove to be invalid, or attributable as well to other factors. Perhaps fraud occurred on an isolated basis, but no one has come forward with careful documentation—as opposed to hysterical—unscientific allegation.”
[No! No! Don’t wanna hear this! Don’t you know that Karl Rove was the EVIL genius that rigged the election?]
“Until the public becomes confident in the underlying integrity of the electoral apparatus in this country, none of the urgently needed improvements to that system can take place. That’s why the conspiracy-mongering must cease. Can we instead please turn now to the many substantive proposals already being proffered to make things better—including pending legislation? Let’s keep our eye on the real ball that’s in our court.”
[Hey! Don’t tell me when I have to cease my mongering! Now that we have seen portions of this article, let us now take a look at the DUmmie outraged reaction to it.]
Bullshit! I saw it with my own eyes. I heard it w/ my own ears. I live in Columbus, Ohio too.
[And I saw space aliens land on Washington Mall with my own eyes. I heard it w/ my own ears. I live in the state of Insanity.]
Congratulations! More self-defeating bullshit, naysaying. Wunderbar!
[When even the far left TomPaine website thinks that the DUmmies are a bunch of moonbats, you know they are really far gone.]
Two very close elections. Two Republican Secs of State. Both Republican Secs of State doing double duty as Bush's state campaign chairs. Diebold machines manufactured and in use in key counties in both states. Big GOP donors running Diebold. Not least, a strong racist undertone re voter-access -- longer lines in heavy black precincts, etc. In sum, that is the infrastructure of cheating. Bush-Cheney cheated. Kerry-Edwards won.
[You certainly do present a convincing case…. that your oxygen supply was turned off at a young age.]
WE ARE NOT GOING TO STOP UNTIL JUSTICE IS DONE!
[THE COMEDY WILL NEVER END!]
I just emailed Russ Baker begging him to tell me this is satire.
[So sorry. It’s the bitter truth.]
my response is that he's right on…And I would add that I've suspected for a long time that some of the "activism" is actually intended to deliberately create and nourish unwarranted distrust in the system for malicious reasons.
[And this Dummie wins a Kewpie doll for having a very brief moment of mental clarity!]
Well, yeah, sure, if it is really pancreatic cancer, we all wish him the best.....but it just really bothers me that this has been going on for so long.
I found web-sites (usually bloggers) where mention of his pancreatic cancer and his need for funds dated back to early January.....coincidentally the same time Bev Harris fired him for financial chicanery, and he was ungainfully unemployed.
So yes, it is possible he has pancreatic cancer, but it seems equally possible this is just a scam.
And of course I would prefer it to be a scam; not for the amusement we might get out of it, but simply because it is a scam, he does not have pancreatic cancer.
Just think--if he had taken the "offer" (and we have no way of knowing if he actually went to the Washington [state] Department of Social Services), gone into the hospital in Seattle a few months ago, had the problem taken care of, he would now be.....recovering, and working on voter fraud in his own front yard, Washington.
"Hotel stay in Baltimore, hotel stay in Ohio, airplane tickets Ohio-Maryland, Maryland-Ohio, and then Ohio-Maryland again.....hmmmm, that might add up to a few hundred dollars that could have been used to diminish the $4,800 shortfall on the first $25,000 payment, if the felonious DUmmie Andy Stephenson had just stuck around in Maryland, shacking up on the living-room couch of his buddy who works for Johns Hopkins."
Wonder whether he flew first class or coach?
" And they will open up their meager checkbooks, cash their SSI and contribute while another conman laughs in their face all the way to bank!"
And when they can't pay their bills as a result, they will curse the Bush administration as being the "cause" of all of their woes.
Also, 'src' is the 'source' ie: where the file is residing and 'alt' means 'alternate name' ie: what will be displayed when the file/pic refuses to show up for one reason or another.
Has anyone else besides DUmmie grasswire mentioned the Paypal thing?
Thanks again for the pings sir! ;3
"And this type of cancer is almost zero recovery stuff even with the surgery."
And isn't it also fast-moving?
DUmmie Alert ping list - count me in!
"DUMMIES WANTING TO MAKE THE FUND-RAISER FOR THE FELONIOUS DUMMIE ANDY STEPHENSON A NATIONAL MEDIA STORY!
Surely they can count on their buddy, Keith Olbermann?
He likes that red shirt, doesn't he?
The Washington (state) Department of Social Services offered to have the problem taken care of, probably at Kings County (Washington) Hospital, but n-o-o-o-o-o, the felonious DUmmie Andy Stephenson had to have "the best," at a hospital with a five-star restaurant menu.
Hi Frank
If Andy really wants the best medical care, why is he slumming around John Hopkins? I thought Havana had the best health care system in the world. That $50 grand should be enough for a one way ticket. He can get a job as a snake catcher, or whatever jobs they give to western defectors in communist countries these days.
put me on the list. thanks.
This apparently is his "final message" as he drifts off to sleep in the arms of his beloved, the DUmmie "termite."
His surgery is ostensibly scheduled for 7:30 a.m. (Maryland time) tomorrow (Tuesday).
Are the DUmmies drama queens, or what?
Oh, thanks for the drama queen's update!!! *eyes rolling*
I can hardly wait for the after-surgery posts (if there is an after-surgery; that, because there was NO surgery!BWAAHAAAHAAA!)
Well, I'm still curious.
The felonious DUmmie Andy Stephenson got into Johns Hopkins today despite his "problems" with PayPal, because a "friend" had "guaranteed" the eventual payment of the demanded $50,000.
Uh.....I can see five or six different possibilities here.
By the way, apparently over the weekend, the Grand DUmmie "Skinner" "locked" the felonious DUmmie Andy Stephenson fund-raiser threads; I am trying to find out why, but come up dry.
I'll bet this "friend" is going to be taken for a long walk off a short pier! Is he in the hospital as they speak or in a hotel? I'll just believe it when I see you post it in the morning! LOL!
LOL! Ole Undie is making more money than Skinner has as Grand Poo-bah!
He is in no hospital like I have been in--they knock you out the evening before surgery at about 9pm! I'm tellin' you he can't be in the hospital partying it up like that! LOL! Of course, Johns Hopkins might be a different kettle of "fish heads"!
