Election fraud for dummies

Investigative reporter and author Greg Palast obviously got tired of screaming "election fraud" until he was blue in the face and having no one take notice. Yes its been almost three years now since Bush stole the election in Florida that he didn't even win the popular vote on. Greg Palast investigated a huge travesity of a privately contracted company, hired by Katherine Harris, "scrubbing" the electoral role of 55,000 voters who were incorrectly labeled as convicted felons just because they had a similar name to an actual convicted felon. The majority of these scrubbed voters were black, and I shouldn't need to point out that almost every black voter in Florida votes with the Democratic party?

I'm not suprised that Greg won't let this one go. This is proven election fraud. This is the kind of stuff that we point fingers at foreign countries for, we decry their lack of democratic process, their foney rigged elections, their puppet leaders... and then invade. This one went all the way to the top for different reasons and the democrats bent over and took it while the supreme court bitch slapped them back home with a crushing defeat. In a sane world all it would need would be for Greg to find a court of law to hear the facts, pass its judgement, and throw the whole sorry lot of them in jail. But of course in Florida Katherine Harris and her cronies own the law all the way to the top so that's never going to happen on their guard.

So the 2000 election is old news, but Greg hasn't given up - yet. On the 40th anniversary of the million man march on Washington, and Martin Luther King's "I have a dream" speech, he's now promoting a two minute flash animation by Eric Blumrich called "Grand Theft America. It stars the devil's spawn Katherine Harris as "the leader of the gang that purged Black citizens from Florida voter rolls by the thousands, handing the White House back to the Bush family".

I guess if writing a book doesn't work, writing newpaper columns don't work, and appearing on radio shows across the country doesn't work, then a catchy flash animation with rap music in the background might. You never know, it does go along with the theory that an entire generation has become powerpoint conditioned and can only process a message that fits on a few slides of bullet points with catchy graphics to distract us from the true content.

Lets hope so because if nothing else, the message of "Grand Theft America" is clear: "God Bless Bush's America, God save us all".
