Thom Hartmann read my post and talked about it with Greg Palast. Way better than a retweet!

I know none of it had anything to do with me but still, too cool!

up, Hillary did not. These are the things people should know. And it maybe it's time to get these facts out to people so they know who is on their side, who was fighting for them when it was needed and who was not. That will help determine who will do so should they get elected.

I've always loved Greg Palast, he's a great journalist and has done history a great service by insisting on getting the facts re that election.

But nothing has been done about it. If anything, there should be a movement to declare the Bush presidency illegitimate. So history records that theft and what it did to this country.

What's amazing to me is there are people, even here on du, that insist Bush won and it was Nader's fault.

Even Hillary, as Greg Palast stated, finally, last year, admitted Bush lost

Thank you! I'm so excited I woke people up to have them listen.

I remember clearly reading Greg Palast's investigative reports about it - it still pisses me off!

Bernie Sanders consistently brings tears to my eyes just from how GOOD and KIND he is!

I'm not surprised one bit that he was the only white person to stand with the CBC to speak out about the black voter purge and caging in FL. That's just who he is! He's NOT the racist the Hillary DU supporters try to paint him.

Thanks for the video. Haven't seen Palast in years. That was great!

I think you meant to reply to the OP. I didn't post the video. But agree with every word you said.
