I can't speak for Brad, but I think the thanks go to Congressman Conyers.

Bless you, John Conyers! If we had more true "representatives" like you, we'd be a democratic country still.

On a more "political" note, I think Conyers' endorsement should be broadcast across the blogs. Brad needs undergirding...and funding!

Subj: Supporting House Judiciary efforts to assert the rule of law over the White House

Congressman Conyers,

Thanks for stpping by. I've been unable to access or get any responses when requesting access to your blog. [More . . .]

Feel free to outline an alternative regisration or e-mail address where this registration process can be timely completed.

Very respectfully,

Constant

All,

Here is a suggestions on what can be done to get the House Judiciary Comittee to look into the Downing Street Memo. [More . . . ]

It involves getting the Senate to agree to shut down the White House nominations/appointements until the House Judiciary Commitee agrees to look into the issues of war crimes/and actually does look into the issues of war crimes, DSM, and other allegations of high crimes coming out of the Rover Grand Jury investigation by Prosecutor Fitzgerald.

I welcome your comments and feedback.

FYI: If you're wondering how the House Judiciary Committee is holding up, the Chairman is under scrutiny. [ More . . .]

Constant #5 --

I have asked the site Admin at ConyersBlog to help with your registration problem. My request appears in this thread, comment #24, at ConyersBlog.

If this somehow goes unnoticed, I'll try again in more recent thread. If there is anything else I can do let me know, either by email or within an open thread.

Torqued #7 ---

Once again, you've done it! Thanks for your assistance.

My only point is: I'd like to contribute; but if it's "such a hassle" to do something this simple, I can only wonder the difficulties we're going to have with attempting to review the DSM or oversee the DoJ, JTTF, and judicial matters.

Yes, I look at this registration "issue" as an indicator: responsivness, ability to solve problems. I would hope that the difficulties with doing something apparently this simple be factored into the assessments and estimates for those plans to review the larger issues on the plate. [More . . .]

If professional assistance is needed, it's time to say, "We need help," not have an adhoc approach. The opponent has already engaged with the professioals; selfevidently, they are better organized. We need to do better in order to preserve both the rule of law and an accountable White House. An opponent cannot simply be won over; this one has to be defeated and made to lose.

Yes, this is intended to be a wake up call. Can't afford to muck around.

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....
