Yesterday BBC's Newsnight programme had as its leading story a report about alleged rigging procedures by the GOP with regard to early voters. Two claims: votes by African Americans were said to be falsified after the voting act, to make them into Rep votes. And private investigators were said to be posted in front of voting locations, to scare away impressionable (?) black voters from voting at all. It all looked completely made up, choreographed, and diligently scripted beforehand. Funniest part was when a young black voter was refused at the ballot box, then went in again followed by heavy BBC camera machinery, and then was allowed to vote because of the media accompanying him. I say funny, because I saw through it all. But it would be very sad if many folks would fall for such an atrocious scam. Did any of this reach the USA? Cheers, flaggie.
Sniff, Sniff...
I smell something.
Sounds like a Monty Python skit.
Wow, a member since 14 October 2004!
And no link to verify the report.
Yeah, I smell something too...
Was anyone there from the Ministry of Silly Walks?
Man I wish someone recorded this.
Between the lines, I might be reading that those leftist bastards have gotten the scoop that this election might be over for their favorite son.
There is a link at #4 above.
DON'T BE SO QUICK TO CALL THIS POSTER A TROLL. He is talking about a post that I posted yesterday by the BBC. Check it out before jumping on him! I have a link in my previous post! He's not making this up Althought the BBC is!
I love the smell of ozone in the morning.
Pre-ZOT bump.
Some things are missing here, like the state and location.
All the early voting sites in my county are in dem strongholds. I just don't believe dems would allow this, so I refuse to believe it happened.
And how the hell are can they do that... the fact the BBC is doing such garbage propaganda is outrages
I am not a 'rat nor a troll -
but a newbie. I couldn't immediately find any relevant link but will look for it - promised. But ask any UK resident who saw Newsnight and they will confirm my story. And yes, it was like Monty Python and I should have recorded it...
Cheers, flaggie.
Check out my post #4. State is Florida. (who'd a thunk???) The BBC is trying to create problems when their are none just like the Dems!
No you are not a troll! Check out my post #4. The story is there and I posted it yesterday!
Welcome to the board ;-)
"Was anyone there from the Ministry of Silly Walks?"
