13. News media not so much, but they will have to report it |
|
and we'll see where it goes from there as more people learn about the outrageous behavior in Ohio. . .

Dem Senator contests.
They'll have investigations I feel. Would you want to be a Senator that rubber-stamped a possibly fraudulent election?
If the election was shown to be fraudulent down the line, how bad would that make them look, even to other Repukes? They'd be out of a job PDQ.

9. You have more faith in them then I do. |
|
I predict a rubber stamp if there is a Dem Senator who will sign off on the objection. I don't believe for a moment the the Republican senators and congress people care on bit about whether or not the election was fair. Nor do I think the those who voted for bush care.

4. Once there's a formal objection, that's our foot in the door... |
|
...for getting Corporate Media coverage, shaming our Senators into passing TRUE electoral reform, beginning the case for impeachment, etc.

7. The report or investigation that Conyers mentions in the letter would be |

out by that time I hope. Perhaps the MSM will actually read it and report on it. But then again, .... maybe not.

8. With apple red cheeks and they so hate to be wrong. |

This is going to require constant vigilance of the media and what they report. Because they know nothing they are likely to report- well you know, crap! And as always we need to drive the facts home.

10. I think I shall recycle this post, just this one time :-) |

I do not understand the perception that people have- If we can't get * out of office NOW, then this is all for nothing. Think about it. * has to be STOPPED. He has to be exposed. Everything that is done to expose him for the lyin, cheatin fraud that he is is gravy.
I for one would love a long and painful public unraveling of his fraudulency leading to a gruesome impeachment, followed by an international war crimes tribuneral.
Oh my, I had better stop, I am feeling all warm and fuzzy inside

14. I know their are deceit civil servants in the capital and they will stand |
|
up for us, that is what American is all about, serving justice and the people who elect them.
:kick:
Image the Senator who did stand up, the citizens would immediately come into the streets and support him or her, we have been waitly for a very, very long time for this day, whom ever steps up will be remember in the history of this Country and its people. They more then likely would be the next President of our country. Who better then a person of such strength and belief in our system of gov't and her people. I know I would vote for them probably the rest of my life time. That kind of leader is who the Democrats need right now.

16. Someone has to....preferably ALL will. |
|
Why make this a single Senator issue? Every damn Democrat ought to be pissed off about 2000, 2002, 2004. If they don't....well, I think they'll find the Party is pretty much toast.
If they can't stick up for us....then we'll stop voting for Democrats.
