No changes in final Warren Co. vote count
E-mails released Monday show lockdown pre-planned

By Erica Solvig
Enquirer staff writer

County Commissioner Pat South has said the decision to lock the doors election night was made during an Oct. 28 closed-door meeting (the Thursday before Election Day). But in e-mailed memos dated Oct. 25 and Oct. 26 - released Monday after an Enquirer public records request - other county officials were already detailing the security measures, down to the wording of signs that would be posted on the locked doors.

3. It's Ohio. Warren County, Ohio where Homeland Security lock down
the precinct when they were counting the votes.

8. news.enquirer.com != www.nationalenquirer.com
This is the site for "The Cincinnati Enquirer" which (I think) is reputable not the tabloid "The National Enquirer" which isn't.

4. They need to be prosecuted
I'm sure state law requires that vote counts be open. Any one know the details of Ohio law on this matter?

10. Probably written up as emergency procedures
just like Florida's. You know, in case they needed to disrupt the "election" (any more than they did, that is).

7. Pre-planned everywhere
Almost everything was pre-planned.

1. Obstruct the vote in Democratic leaning precincts.
2. Trash the new-voter registrations of Democrats.
3. Wherever possible, do not allow a verifiable voter paper trail.
A. If pressed, take it to the courts.
B. If further pressed, agree to comply later.
4. Scare the shit out of anybody that gets their news from MSM.
A. Own that media.
B. Cow that media.
5. Don’t massacre Fallujah until after the election.
6. Purge anybody that opposed * policies accountable after the coup.
7. They seek and need cannon fodder.

So why didn’t they plan for their unprovoked invasion of Iraq this way?

1. They didn’t think they would have to justify the looting and destruction of Iraq. Unfortunately the Iraqi culture is not yet dumb-downed by MSM, but still smart enough to use a beheading as press conference.
2. The GOP are selfish, cheap bastards that have no regard for life unless that life is a cell inside the womb of a Western woman. And if a life should emerge or be born, it’s in God’s hands and no longer protected by an “over-burdened” government or religious authority.
3. Wild Card: Power trip. It must be fun to fuck with the lives of the world and your country because you can and still continue to remove any serious checks and balances against your “authority” or marginal and stolen “mandate.”
4. In other words: “They are evil.”
