Ney and staff deep in Ohio election fraud: The Brad Blog reports
Coincidence? Yeah, sure. Former Ney staffer (Ohio), on Diebold's payroll. http://www.bradblog.com/

The Soon-to-be-Indicted Rep. Bob Ney of Ohio's Connection To Electoral Fraud

The Dots Connect Between Abramoff, Ohio 2004 Election Smokescreen and Ney's Former Staffer Revealed to be on Diebold's Payroll While Working for White House Law Firm

All the While as HAVA -- America's 'Election Reform' Bill -- is Used for Political Payoff in the Bargain...

There's been a great deal of speculation over the last several days, particularly in the light of Jack Abramoff's recent guilty pleas, concerning the connection of Congressman Bob Ney (R-OH) to Election Fraud in Ohio, and indeed, vis a vis his stewardship and authoring of the Help America Vote Act (HAVA) back in 2001 and 2002. The heavy-handed tactics he has taken since then in order to keep the flawed act from being changed in any way over the years, along with the great lengths he's gone to in order to keep the nation's eyes off of massive electile dysfunction in Ohio and elsewhere since 2004 may finally soon get the attention it all properly deserves.

Both Abramoff and his partner Michael Scanlon have directly informed prosecutors of Ney's alleged wrong doing in regard to money and gifts given to Ney in apparent exchange for support on various legislation and even personal business deals. Ney, who chairs the important U.S. House Administration Committee, has been fingered, and now subpoenaed, in regard to accepting illegal trips, gratuities and other apparent quid pro quo deals with Abramoff's former firms, partners, friends and groups who had paid both him and Scanlon as lobbyists. . .

1. I suggest a deal with Ney to bring down some of the other crooks.

2. A great idea. If we can get Ney to turn, we can break the Ohio election.
Wide open. We are close now to busting the Bush Administration, no matter how the Media tries to hide it. If that happens, though, look out for martial law.

3. This is GREAT NEWS!! I knew there was a connection somewhere.
Apparently, the only thing Congress will investigate in the present climate, where the voting machines have created a false Repub majority, is violations involving money. Even Repubs can recognize fraud involving money.

Let the investigating continue.

Carry on gentlemen.

4. "Gentlemen?!?" I resemble that remark.
Investigate, yes, although I believe it is all coming down around our heads. Anyone here who believes that power will be relinquished easily had best think again. We are always too optimistic. That's part of being a liberal.

5. what we need is some brain to pick up the pieces
it's imploding, I have no clue what is going to happen, I don't this administration will hold together another 3 years and Bush comments about the country sliding into tyranny
do nothing to make me feel confident.

6. You obviously have the brain. And I love Baltimore.
Not a big fan of the Orioles (beat my Tigers, back in the day), but love the Cone Collection at the Baltimore Museum of Art, the neighborhoods, the restaurants. Way cool.

7. thanks, John Waters said Baltimore is made up of everyone
who got lost on 95, bless those Cone sisters, they had a lot of taste. If you like
Baltimore, you should see the movie Hair Spray, which was based on Baltimore.

8. Me too. I have been waiting for news like this to surface.
Man, Ohio's election system is fucked up!

What is Blackwell's connection?? Don't tell me that he isn't involved somehow...
