Speak Out on Election Fraud 2004

If anyone believes beyond any doubt that Bush won the election hands-down, they should have no problem with the election being fully investigated and having all votes re-counted every which way.

Anyone who attempts to stand in the way of this happening has something to hide. (Ken Blackwell, this means you ... get a good lawyer.)

$9B Goes Missing In Iraq-Huge Sum Disappears Without A Trace

This article is from the Wash. DC IMC:

By: Helen Thomas

Profiteering from the Iraq war is not a surprise, especially in light of the Bush administration's pandering to the military-industrial complex. But some Democratic lawmakers are concerned that profiteering may have achieved stratospheric dimensions in the case of the $9 billion that is missing from the sale of Iraqi oil.

WHAT GOES AROUND KEEPS COMING AROUND

The insurgency in Iraq -- isn't that really a kind of government? Headline about an hour ago off Yahoo News is that the insurgents have blown up some more oil-supply infrastructure and things look bad that way. So the insurgents keep raising hell, notably driving the price we pay at the pump for gas and ultimately undermining the U.S. economy. Innocent people will be hurt. Innocent people are being hurt. Just as innocent people were hurt as "collateral damage" by the U.S. bombing of Iraq in 2003 (and before and since). So why are ordinary working Americans probably going to have to pay? That wasn't us -- that was the government?

Have the Seeds of Fascism Found Fertile Ground in the United States?

http://photos1.blogger.com/img/112/2242/200/flag.jpg

Political scientist Dr. Lawrence Britt recently wrote an article about fascism ("Fascism Anyone?," Free Inquiry, Spring 2003, page 20). Studying the fascist regimes of Hitler (Germany), Mussolini (Italy), Franco (Spain), Suharto (Indonesia), and Pinochet (Chile), Dr. Britt found they all had 14 elements in common. He calls these the identifying characteristics of fascism. The excerpt is in accordance with the magazine's policy. The 14 characteristics are:

I now fully accept that Bush won the election fair and square, because...

I now realize that the final, "weighted", cooked exit polls must be exactly correct, since they adjust the initial "raw" data to the "pristine" vote count, which of course we know is always 100% accurate. That is especially true now that we have fancy new Diebold/ES&S touchscreen computers . . .

Warren Buffet warns of financial "Chaos"

Warren Buffet is known as the wizard of Wall Street. People stand in line to give him their money, that is, to buy stock in his Bershire Hathaway holding company. Buffet never announces his moves early, because he wants to get in at the bottom floor in order to maximize his profits on the ride to the top, but once he does announce what he has done, you can take it to the bank. For this reason, statements by Warren Buffet about the economy have incomparably more gravitas than the more popularly quoted statements of Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan. Here's the nitty-gritty (from business-oriented news service, NewsMax.com):
