BUSH OUT KERRY IN ? With the media blocked out, I was wondering..
what are the media gonna do if the ohio recount really does turn the election over? Since they don't cover it now, won't it be a big surprise for everyone to wake up to one morning? This Just In Bush is OUT, Kerry is In, and now for the weather....

8. Well, Bill Schneider's gonna have to recrunch all his numbers.
Edited on Tue Nov-16-04 02:59 AM by Old and In the Way
Judy Woodruff will have to have her head stitched back together. Wolf will be clueless. Tweety will be totally amazed, he never saw THAT coming. Scarborough will probably disappear and resurface in some South American country that has no extradition treaty with the US. Pat Buchanon will be lamenting as to why God had foresaken his son.

Seriously, though, it will be TV worth watching. Because they will not be able to report the facts without also mentioning that the Republicans engaged in systematic RICO-type criminal treason against the Constitution and the American people. As co-conspirators, that won't be an easy story to report.

I suspect that it will usher in a whole new bunch of talking heads and pundits.

9. And the likelehood of that happening
is virtually zilch, zip, nada.

I appreciate everybody's efforts regarding the voting anomalies, inconsistancies, and possible fraud, but I really wouldn't get my hopes up that such a thing would happen.

If such a thing were to happen though, I might actually become religious - because I'd know miracles occur then.

10. Sadly, I agree
The chances of anything being proven are astronomical.

We know there was lots of funny business: intimidation, voter purging, etc etc.

But if there was computer fraud, it will never be proven.

Dems needed to act before the election...now it's too late.

15. Reply to "Sadly I agree"
You are so right about the fact that the Dems should have been yelling loudly about Electroninc Fraud BEFORE the Election. There wasn't a peep officially from anyone. If this issue had been highlighted before, there wouldn't be so many non-believer now. ONLY SAVING GRACE will be if their quietness pointed to a trap of sorts being laid. Hate to think that our side is dumb enough to ignore such a threat. Maybe Kerry meeting Nader was part of some trap being laid down to catch a really big fish !!

13. even if it don't flip the election we may
be able to take some of them down. We don't know yet what we might find. And either way, bush has got to leave the white house, I think the world agrees that he is a murdering maniac.

16. I have no doubt the evidence and proof will be found .....
and it will be widespread.

Actually getting him out of the White House may be quite another story!

17. that's the main problem
with all the reinforcement from the Dems that "Bush won", "everything went smoothly", "fair election", talk of 2008.

Virtually no one in the real (non-electronic) world has even a hint of this.

In a world where perception rules, Bush is going to be the pres for the next four years. And the spineless dems have helped him over the possible "rough spots" once again. Hell, if Daschle had a voice at this point, we'd be reading his congratulations to the thief in chief.

18. then maybe we should be writing to foreign countries
to save us from the Bush Cartel. He is starting wars in our name and it's not our decision. The people of the world are thinkging that we deserve whatever we get out of this because we so overwelmingly voted him in. But we didn't.
Is there no Democratic Nation out there that can come and force our country to be a democracy?
