This woman hasn't given up ...I'm impressed with her previous work
http://lmno4p.org/nevada/

I noticed a small AP story in our local rag last night about how she has sued for public access to the Nevada election results. Smartass SOS says he will charge her a dollar a page and that is just the way that it is. I'm trying to find the story online but can't seem to find it.

Check out this on the money story she did in Iraq several years ago. She isn't a fluke ...

Clean lies, dirty wars
As the United States continues to ponder war with Iraq, a military scientist and writer now living in Reno recalls the truths she learned during a trip to post-Desert Storm Iraq.

By Patricia Axelrod

Courtesy Of The Desert Storm Think Tank

Civilian cars, trucks and buses--the vehicles used by those fleeing Kuwait--were bombed by U.S. military forces on the Highway of Death.


Twenty-two months after Desert Storm, I was finally on my way to Amman, Jordan, the gateway to Iraq. Somewhere over Europe, I caught a glimpse of the Kafkaland to come when I heard that 50 black-market merchants had been hanged there before cheering crowds of Iraqis. My introduction to the hell of Iraq was complete when I learned that their bodies had been left hanging for the birds to peck eyes from, rotting reminders of what happens to traitors who price necessities out of the affordable range.It was October 1992. The first George Bush was in his second bid for the presidency. Central to his campaign was the glorious Desert Storm victory. Desert Storm, said the president, was a model war. A hundred thousand tons of explosive power had been dropped on a nation one-third smaller than the state of Texas, from which Bush hailed. The official line was only good news. America's new wonder weapons--depleted-uranium-tipped munitions and precision-guided missiles--had destroyed the Iraqi army but spared Iraqi civilians. The media in their enthusiasm had labeled Desert Storm a "clean war."

The years I've spent as a weapons system analyst told me otherwise, as did Desert Storm veterans I'd interviewed, who spoke of civilian slaughter and brought home photographs of blackened corpses melted by depleted uranium--bodies nicknamed "crispy critters" by soldiers. And so I set out to uncover the dirty lie.

1. Democrat Sues Secretary of State Over Nevada Election
I know it is not as big as the Ohio story but ...many other states are still seeing the lone light asking to be shed on the doubt of this election.

I, for one, will never believe an election in this country again.

(Dec. 9) -- A citizen activist has sued Secretary of State Dean Heller, alleging he's withholding election records that could cast doubt on President Bush's 21,500-vote victory over John Kerry in Nevada.

Patricia Axelrod wants a judge to order Heller and his elections deputy, Ronda Moore, to hand over dozens of pages of documents to prove whether "Bush stole this election."

4. I've contacted her and emailed her the copies I saved from the SOS's
website the week after the election that showed the undervotes. Thanks to some of you at DU, I saved those. He removed them shortly after I saved them and made it look like they never existed. Now I see she is after them!!! Go, go, is right!!!
