Deja Vu...2000 Waiting for the "Media Consortium Report" which will show
Edited on Mon Dec-13-04 09:01 PM by KoKo01
GORE WON! Then "9/11" came along and covered it over in earth feet deep.

So, we fought for four years through Mid-Term Elections and Primary Battls and Election 2004 Came...and here we are again.

More folks are with us this time...but in those intervening years we Lost any media we might have had on our side...such as it was..even then.

So the battle begins again. And, we have no idea if the result won't be the same again. It's proved Bush lost but another "Bush Provoked Incident" like Terrorist Attack or Invasion of Iran or Syria takes precident over his loss through vote fraud. The "People" become silent once again...and the hope for the Dems focuses on "2006 Midterms" and then on to "2008."

It's a little too much REDUX for me.

I wonder what we can do to change this scenario. To thwart this replay of what was before.

What can we do to change this "script?" Any Ideas?

1. For months we waited for the NORC
The NORC was going to vindicate us. The NORC (basically it was a recount paid for by a news consortium, as a study) was going to prove Gore won Florida.

Then EXACTLY when the report was supposed to be released, 9/11 happened. The report was delayed for most of the year. When it was finally released, it proved:

GORE WON

But only if you count ALL the votes.

2. Wasn't it released...
The day that plane crashed/blew up over NYC? I mean, after being delayed because of 9/11.

I guess the buildings and planes in our city just don't want the world to know that * is a usurper.

3. Was it that soon? I feel like it was longer than that
but I honestly don't remember. That Queens plane crash feels like it happened a month after 9/11 but it could have been a year after - it's all blurred together in my mind.

5. I know, for me it feels like it happened about 4 days afterward
I'm having trouble finding both dates. I'm pretty sure both happened on nov. 12. Neither the NORC publication date nor the plane crash is easy to google.

Anyway I'm pretty sure they both came out 11/12/01.

6. Oh okay so that would make sense
I was thinking the plane crash was just a month or two after -

4. Links to articles for Media Consortium Report. 11/12/01 from "Bush Watch"
All articles dated ll/12...which was in the height of angst over 9/11. I think it was released before that date...but the articles use the ll/12 date for commentary.

Amazing just scanning these articles how definite it was that Gore won.
