We the real kool aid drinkers screwed, Kerry, told the lawyers

to stand down huh!

Kerry’s separate peace

As usual, the corporate media pretend that the Republican’s bullying and official criminality in the weeks preceding Election Day – events they covered – never happened. John Kerry collaborates in the farce, proclaiming in his public concession speech that America is in "desperate need for unity, for finding common ground and coming together. Today, I hope we can begin the healing."



But the troops who carried him, the Black men and women targeted for harassment and humiliation at the polls, are bleeding on the field, many of their votes never to be counted or even acknowledged. The vaunted legions of Democratic lawyers that were supposed to descend on Ohio and Florida to tear apart the rigged systems of electoral apartheid were told to stand down on Tuesday night. PBS News Hour’s Margaret Warner told viewers that Kerry’s legal team advocated a “scorched earth” policy to challenge the crooked system until it screamed – a result Democratic troops would have cheered. Kerry overruled his lawyers, to make a false peace with the Pirates.

And what of the provisional ballots in Ohio, which Democrats at one time numbered at 250,000? What about all the federally-mandated provisional ballots in each of the 50 states. Are these all to be swept under the rug to avoid what Kerry calls “a protracted legal process?” Once again, reconciliation between the rich and white trumps justice for Blacks every time.

In Florida, the computer-generated Bush-heavy election returns that so dramatically clashed with earlier Kerry-heavy human exit polls are now explained away as the result of the stealth invasion of Karl Rove’s church-based mass voter movement – a half-million strong evangelical invasion force that most hard-wired Republican pundits did not even know existed. As “Ghosts of Florida” author Tom Grayman III writes, “by no method has it been determined that the polling was incorrect and the voting equipment was not.”

On Washington-based XM-Radio, talk show host Mark Thompson remarked that the “third eye” of every Black person in America was wide open, blinking in disbelief as Kerry Democrats and Bush Republicans rearrange the facts about November 2, 2004.

The last thing America needs is unity with thieves, Pirates and punks. The nation and the world need peace, jobs and justice. Let’s get back to work.

3. Have you noticed the silence from the Kerry campaign.

It is unnatural it also appears to have been planned.
There are some unnatural rumblings going on. There are several threads on this board that hint at what may be going on check these out.

4. Yes, and it's deafening.

What the hell is going on? I feel very unnerved by this.

5. You should.

I just heard Kerry got New Mexico. There are an awful lot of uncounted votes. Remember what Kerry said that all votes will be counted.

6. Read the Constitution

WE have to do it. We can't expect one man to fight for us, and we can't blame anyone at this point. We have to fight for ourselves and cause change among the masses.
