What are your thoughts about the following?

Hand counted paper ballot precincts favored Obama while Diebold op-scan counted precincts favored Clinton.

The only significant different between election results and poll results (both pre-election and exit polls) favored Clinton.

All of the op-scan machines were under the complete and exclusive control of one shady company.

The media is unwilling to consider any possibility of election fraud as an explanation for Clinton's unexpected results (regardless of the extensive evidence of voting machine fraud dating back to 2000).

If we don't have accurate vote counting, nothing else we do will matter.

You are one of a few sources of information in this barren media landscape. You are smart, you speak the truth and you know the law.

Thanks for all you do.

Perhaps a Democrat who truly values the Constitution and the will of the people should run against Harman in the primary. Given Bush's low approval ratings and Harman's history of enabling his scandalous policies, a grassroots candidate could unseat her.

The 29%'ers who still support Bush are not Time's demographic. Sooner or later, as Time loses credibility, they will lose sales. It's not like their magazine contains have recipes or celebrity skin. When Time's "news" is no longer recognized as news, it will lose its readership.

Glenn,

What you see as ironic, I see as part of a strategy of public brainwashing. By giving repeated lip-service to the principles of the Constitution, Bush gives himself unlimited freedom to violate those principles. The man is a pathologic liar. He is more comfortable lying, with skilled false-sincerity, than he is in telling the truth.

The notion of creating paradoxical thought memes which pacify the public's need for reassurance (Clear Skies Initiative, Help America Vote Act, Conservative Fiscal Discipline, Global War on Terror, etc.) is a central tool in the neocon strategy. Without Bush being taken to task on his deception because of lapdog corpotate media, and shamefully complicit corporate republicans and democrats, there is no other story for people to hear.

A diminishing portion of the American public follows hypnotically behind the piper as he leads us all to our destruction.

This is how the Republican hegemony has undermined democracy in this country- by keeping it personal.

Watch the Democrats fall into line as they are verbally assaulted for their 'bad manners' by hysterical egomaniacs on the right.

Our liberal values of kindness and cooperation are being exploited to our detriment. Keep it objective. Stick to the facts. Firm, but polite.

Her bill, S 1487 is a voter-disenfranchising, corporation-promoting piece of pork that stinks of Karl Rove and Microsoft. It promotes non-verifiable voting through secret ballot-counting.

Not only does the legislation cement the power of federal oversight over elections through the EAC, but it institutionalizes the fraud that has been carried out against minority voters by assuming that "undervoting" on the ballot in certain districts is somehow cultural and does merit investigation.

Feinstein is the second coming of Lieberman and feeds off of the same teat. The neo-con architects of fascism were clever in their design: Republican corruption is backed up by the "safety net" of Democratic corruption.

It strikes me that this administration's laissez-faire attitude towards our constitution and basic human rights gives aid and comfort to the enemies of freedom, such as Pakistan's Musharraf.

Glenn Beck and his ilk do not support American principles. They oppose the rights of privacy, free speech, due process and dissent. They are intolerant and cruel towards "others".

Glenn Beck is an enemy of the American constitution. Whatever Beck thinks that he is given by birthright- born an American with white skin- does not allow him the authority with which he speaks. He is an ignorant, small-minded fool, who successfully taps into the fear and mistrust of foreigners in this country. He is blessed only by an electronic soapbox on which to stand. History will show him to be a cowardly villain. Those, like Ellison, who speak out against tyranny, in the tradition of Paine, Jefferson, Henry and Hale are the true heroes.

The radical right wing which is in control of this country favors a dictatorship. Their tactics are fueled by fear and nationalism and use the same rationale, "fighting Islamic extremism", as Bush's erstwhile ally Musharraf.

GG, don't let your irony be mistaken for your true opinion. We must shout from the rooftops: "Glenn Beck is a traitor to this country and Keith Ellison is a hero!"

for the reaction from the right-wing noise machine is this:

Right wing zealots have no factual evidence, not even a shred of truth, to support their absurd and catastrophic rhetorical positions and they resort to scurrilous lies, complete fabrications, to defend the indefensible results of their propaganda.
