Nearly 10 percent of Cuyahoga County’s official ballots in the May 2 primary were “destroyed, blank, illegible, missing, taped together or otherwise compromised,” according to a group hired by the county to investigate. But even when the paper receipts were legible in the May 2 primary, more than three-quarters of them listed vote tallies that did not match the electronic record in the touch-screen machines. …

      Here’s a slap in the face to Christian Fascists from
      Christian Progressives,..

      Pray for George W. Bu$$h,..

      Please, take a moment and pray for this man. He is in a situation that few people find themselves. He is criticized at every turn, and few people have thanked him for the good things he has done.

      Watchman Comment: Thank you George Bush, for:

      Destroying our rights under the Constitution
      For demonizing our country to all the world and making us a target, not only to Islamic terrorism, but even the worlds other superpowers.
      For the mass murder of the victims of Katrina, who did not die because of the hurricane, but because of your inept administration (and martial law agenda)
      For approving torture of innocents
      For violating the tenants of the Geneva Convention
      For turning America into a fascist police state that even the former Soviet Union has taken notice of.
      For bringing armed mercenaries into a disaster area instead of rescuers.
      For giving us the finger at every opportunity.
      For joking with your associates over the torture and illegal confinement of men, women and children.
      We’ll pray for you and love you, in spite of yourself, but let’s not get carried away with any false accolades for this guy.
      If anyone would like to add to this please feel free by click on the link below.
      Few people know the extent of his situation. We need to pray that God gives him the guidance he needs to do his job effectively. I have attached a photo of this man. Look at it. Most of you will recognize him. Please pray for him.

      Feel free to pass this on to anyone else who will pray for this man. He hasn’t asked me to send this request, but I am sure that he will appreciate all your prayers. If you were facing what he is facing, you’d want people praying for you!

      Thanks!

      Praise the real LORD,.. crucify the Fascist Christians at the ballot-box.
