Hey Seattlites-why is "The Stranger" ignoring vote fraud?
Our local alternative weekly, of which I've been a faithful reader since 1992, is completely ignoring the vote fraud issue. This is uncharacteristic of them-they have written plenty about the election, and never shy away from controversial issues. What's up?

1. hmm, forgot about them, have you contacted them?
wonder if anyone has? maybe they're too busy being sarcastic and practicing being aloof that they don't have time for such frivolties.

Guess I could try the Weekly, they're slightly more reputable, to some people that is, but it's a start...

4. well there's Adrian Ryan's Celebrity I Saw U column
not exactly front page news

But suffer no illusions: conservative religious freaks are out for my excessively queer blood. Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson, who apparently haven’t just fucking died yet, have come right out and said that Bush’s ostensible “re-election” (we’ll see about that) is the terrible moment they’ve plotted and schemed and prayed meanly for all these years—that through Bush and his policies they shall wield sufficient misguided Christpower to grab the country by the unchaste nuts and force it in the direction of their tight-assed, colorless, theocratic, non-wet dreams, and trust me just this once: this isn’t a salubrious situation.
