Connect. The. Dots.
...And follow the money.

From 2001 to 2003, Diebold gave $411,320 to Republican candidates and causes.

Their CEO promised, in an August 2003 Fundraising Letter to Republicans, to "deliver the Ohio electoral vote to President Bush" - Just days before he met with Bush and other bigwig supporters down at the ranch in Crawford, TX!

Along with ES&S, founded by the same founder as Diebold, those two companies alone count 80% of our nations ballots.

You expected anything less?

The Republikommunist Party is very tightly knit at the top, which is the only place where it really matters. The sheep they lead will swallow any lie, so long as it supports the basic tenets they've been duped into thinking their leaders support. It all boils down to money; the real reason so many different things are supported (or not) by them has to do with who would make money off them.

And I'm too tired to be writing this at this hour. Before I give the freepers too much ammo, I'll end this for now. Suffice it to say I know the truth, and it will help me teach every child I encounter that right-wing-nuts should be pitied for their narrow-mindedness, and fought at every turn when they try to take, or retain, power at any level.

Today, April of 2005, I saw the graphic images of American soldiers senselessly shooting a car that they allegedly said did not stop when they told them to. They fired numerously into the car. When they went to check out the car (I am crying very very hard right now and typing at the same time) they didn't find dead terrorists with AKs or bombs strapped to them. Instead, they found a dead mother and a dead father and five bloody screaming little children in the back seat of the car. One girl, was so full of blood, I thought that it was a re-enactment of the event, but it was the real photograph of the little girl with her parent's blood screaming and crying while Iraqi onlookers and witnesses helplessly screamed and cried with her and her other siblings. One sibling was even wounded by bullets. Are you still pro-war after reading this?

How can you dignify the Iraqi War by arguing that Saddam was responsible for 911 when clearly he wasn't or Saddam was a threat anyway and that Iraqi civilians were tortured and all that blah blah blah crap when FUCKIN IRAQI CIVILIANS ARE DYING RIGHT NOW THIS MOMENT THAT I AM TYPING!!!!!

I am not a democrat or republican or whatever....I am not biased I just want Americans and especially the "christians" who supported and re-elected Bush to be more open-minded, stop defending that rich son-of-a-bush, and to know how to handle the truth. And so I will try to put this as simple as possible for those many Bush Supporters out there. Don't worry, I will not use "big words" like Kerry did, for you guys okay.

Bush supporters simply cannot explain why they support that moron and yes, even WORSE, THINK they know about current events based on American News Media (aka: FOX News, CNN, and the rest of American news networks; please watch BBC or other country's news instead!)

It's unbelievable that they base their arguments from these misleading, right-wing, Israel kiss-assing news channels!!! UNBELIEVABLE!! Haven't they seen the short film Outfoxed? Go check out their website and you'll find some info and short video about the deceitful Fox News Channel and American Media in particular.

But I doubt they will believe anything. Sadly, they will still be biased and blind and in denial.

Sometimes I feel like I have lost faith in Christianity of today. My fellow christians voting for that moron, hurts me more when they don't at least try to listen and when they care more about Gays LOVING and abortion issues rather than innocent children helplessly screaming in the streets, bathe in the blood of their dead parents. I don't like to say "Iraqi"
children because I believe when I say Iraqi children, it will make these people *yawn* because they probably don't regard Iraqi or Arabs as humans. That's why they're pro-war.

To me, seeing suffering in these beautiful childrens' eyes are far far worse than any abortion or Gay issue. These are living, breathing, walking children....

....my fellow Bush supporting Christians who God happened to let you come upon this site and read my statement....please think about it....
I am so blessed that God showed me the truth and you will be blessed too if you can just open your eyes and heart to the lies of this administration.

So far, nobody's been able to offer us a single instance of voter fraud as committed by ACORN, or even by any of the 1.3 million registered by them over the past two years. You sure wouldn't know it if you listened to the crazed rightwingers...

VotersUnite.org's Daily Voting News 'Daily Voting News'
For October 15, 2008

by John Gideon

20 days until Election Day.

“Experts” are all speaking out and warning of voting meltdowns across the country. Where were these “experts” six months ago? Where have they been since the last national election? Why have they not spoken out against these same voting systems that they are concerned about now? Of course it wasn’t political for them to take a position against the use of these machines until now.

1-866-OUR-VOTE; 1-866-MY-VOTE1 and now YouTube and WiredNews all want voters to report when they have problems voting. And what will happen with the data collected by these groups? Will any of it be compiled and released after the election? Probably not a lot of it is my guess....
