Election Reform, Fraud, & Related News Wednesday 7/20/05
Dear Representatives, What The Hell Are You Thinking?
Senators and Representatives:
I write to you today to ask a simple question: "What the hell are you thinking?"

Shame on you. The last three national elections have had major irregularities, if not outright fraud, yet you sit on your hands and don’t do a damn thing to address those. Some of you did stand up to contest the certification, and look what good things that brought you. You got the Swift Boat treatment. It used to be that standing up for a principle such as "one person-one vote" was an admirable thing. There is something very wrong with our electoral system, and you owe it to the people of the nation to determine what it is and how to fix it BEFORE the next national election. I personally believe you need to outlaw electronic voting machines. Actually, I’d like to see a return of the paper ballot. Results may take a little longer to get, but we waited weeks after the 2000 election, so waiting for ballots to actually be counted would be a cakewalk.

There’s a new American revolution a-brewing. It’s fomenting on the blogs, websites and networks of people, of all political persuasions, who believe America is headed down a dangerous, disastrous path, and who are determined to take back our government from those complicit in getting us in this sorry state. It’s the American way. And if you can’t hear our hoof beats looming, shame on you. You’re just not listening.
