Never again let the Bush Adm characterize truth as a conspiracy theory
As one of those who warned Kerry some time prior to the election, that the rigging would make him appear to lose - even if he won by a landslide - I was not surprised by Bush's apparent win. What did surprise me was that anyone in our party believed Bush's win. We all knew about the Gems Program. We all knew about Sequoia, E-Slate, ES&S and Diebold. Those of us who have studied 9/11 knew that a lot of people who could dictate who the machines gave the victory to would be going to jail if those machines did not show a definitive win for George W. Bush. Kerry's concession, the biggest flip-flop of his life since it went so strongly against his promise to his supporters, was also a bit of a shock.

But we are right in pursuing the truth. Don't let anyone call you a conspiracy theorist for researching or telling the truth. The biggest conspiracy theorists of all time and the founders of this country as they wrote the crime of conspiracy into all kinds of codes. Yes. George Washington was a big conspiracy theorist. So were TJ and John Adams.

Too many people are afraid of being called "conspiracy theorist" in the same way Muslims in America are afraid of being called terrorists. We must never let the bad guys win these word games and we must never hide from or avoid the truth.

1. we can only hope he has a strategy and was prepared
for this. the "mandate" is now in fast forward and must be stopped. i do believe we will persevere, but we need to support one another to collectively and relentlessly get the truth out.

2. I keep reframing it
Everytime someone says it's a conspiracy theory now, I say nope, it's a corruption theory, and you need to be pretty naive to think politicians are never corrupt.

3. It's too bad that Kerry didn't have the strength of character to fight
The loss of the election boils down to one thing. Kerry refused to fight when we needed him most. It's too late to demand a recount of Florida, a state Kerry won but threw away with his concession. Ohio won't be recounted until it is too late to stop Bush's electors. Had it not been for Kerry's cowardice, America would be in the streets like the Ukranians.
