Evidence of Fraud in 2000,2002, and 2004
The Bush Gang have been working up to this for some time...and concerned scholars have been studying it for some time.

One Canadian proffessor has made a reading list that will help you in writing letters to the editor, deep conversations at jamband shows and so on. I don't know if he's planning to teach a course in "Stealing U.S. Elections 101".

Here's two versions of the list, in case one link goes dead when something is hacked down:

http://www.globalresearch.ca/articles/KEE411B.html

Then you can reward yourself with some humor:

I'll add more to this going back to 2000 and 2002...some people DID see this coming, only DLC/Kerry campaign establishment seem to have been in denial about what was likely to happen.

1. How better to commit the perfect crime than to insist it never happened?
Let’s Get Real
By Mark Crispin Miller
How better to commit the perfect crime than to insist it never happened?

Bush & company’s theft of the election was a crime so obvious that it requires more effort to deny than to affirm. This rip-off was as flagrant as the L.A. cops’ assault on Rodney King, Kerry’s stellar soldiering in Vietnam, or Bush’s lousy record in the Texas Air National Guard, and yet this national calamity is being dismissed as a delusion.

The reason for the Busheviks’ denial is as obvious as the theft itself: How better to commit the perfect crime than to insist it never happened?

And yet what makes this stance so dangerous is not just its use on the right, but its prevalence throughout the corporate media (MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann excepted) and even among those on the left. To charge that the Republicans did not legitimately rout the Democrats provokes the counter-charge that such claims “hurt the cause” by floating angry fantasy instead of scientific fact.

Rather than urge cautiousness, such automatic counter-claims quash all discussion of electoral fraud, as if the very notion were far-fetched. “This charge was false, so all charges must be wrong,” is the response that Karl Rove wants from us, as we will then conclude, conveniently for him, “Case closed!”
