I heard about this the other day.

It sounded to me like this is due the that pack of dimwits asking the UN to watch over the elections.

Looks like this thread has all the knee-jerk reactionaries in it...

LOL! Any monitoring of our elections and counting process will only hurt democrats. They apparently have no clue as to how their own party manufactures votes.

Bring them on!

let them - suing the US in the World Court to install Kerry as President, isn't going to help the Democrats politically.

Keep Fraud in check HAHAHAHA or use this to commit more Fraud with the leftist scum around the worlds help. This will never be a good thing and will be real scary and a push as usual to change this countries Strength in the world. One liberal scumbag in the whitehouse like Kerry and he will embrace this and build on it.

Being sued in the World Court is the least of our worries. My concern is that this will be used as an opening for riots.

If we post a U.S. Marshal along side each OSCE monitor, I'll feel much better about this.

Are they going to monitor the streets, to make sure nobody is out hoarding people without a clue onto buses and buying them off with cash or smokes? I consider that fraudulent. Are they going to make sure no dead people vote?

The other threads explain that is not anything to blow a gasket over unless you're a tin foil hat type.

How about if we just get more than a little annoyed at the symbolism of this -- especially in light of the dems who tried to get the UN to monitor our elections?

Well, for starters, how about giving the democrats an opening to sue the U.S. in the World Court?

IF that happen?? ... then you can say good bye to the Dem Party .. because American's will freak out on them

This thread was the only posting titled "International team to monitor presidential election."

Never search for a complete title, since the same article will often be printed in many different publications, some of which will change the title to suit their preference or space limitations.

Instead, search (separately) for a few of the key words, in this case "election" would have turned up all the variations, and "monitor" or "international" would have turned up most of them.

riots by whom? the Dems already have plenty of constituencies that they could call to riot after a Kerry loss, they don't need the UN for that.

Having the Dem put our elections in the same category as Afghan is outrageous

They tried that with the Gore lose, remember? They couldn't gin up enough excitement to motivate their loonies.

This is a new tactic for them (publicly calling in the socialists, I mean), and I'm not sure if it will work. They managed to pull off some pretty destructive demonstrations in Seattle, though.

Thanks. I don't post often, and wasn't aware that this would have been a better way to search.

sets a terrible precedent not only in the area of elections, but in the future world monitoring bodies could be invited in to monitor the environment, prisons, immigration procedures etc...
