Was the 2004 election stolen? No.

In Rolling Stone, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. argues that new evidence proves that Bush stole the election. But the evidence he cites isn't new and his argument is filled with distortions and blatant omissions.

    Manjoo is half right/wrong

    and that's what makes it so hard to nail him down as the right wing hack that he is. yes, RFK's article is rife with inaccuaracies and omissions, but that's probably by design as well. As Public Enemy once wrote in a song, "some blacks act Devil, too". (of course, you have to read this metaphorically to apply it here) RFKjr is acting Devil in his omissions, instead causing lefties to focus on non-issues, or easliy debunked issues. No one is asking why the hell there was a county in Ohio with 800 registered voters, yet it somehow churned out **5000** votes for Bush?

    anybody? anybody?

    yes, there's "no way to prove if the election was stolen or not"---THAT'S THE DAMN PROBLEM, YOU FOOLS!!.

    the fact that the *supposedly* most advanced democracy in the world CAN'T seem to verify its elections IS THE ENTIRE ISSUE-that's it.

    ohhh, yeah....that, and the fact that our votes are tallied by private corporations and NOT election judges. those vote tallies are also dependent on the same private corporations, one of which publicly promised to "deliver the votes for George W Bush in November". (CEO of Diebold Systems, shareholder's meeting, January 2004)

    Democrats didn't say "boo" because they probably go sweet kickbacks from the same companies as the Republicans. they're all on the same side, and that side is NOT the people's.
