Did stolen $$$ elect Bush in Ohio? by Earl from Ohio

[Jim Sagle]

Did (Tom) Noe make his donations to Shrubco with money stolen from the workers of the state of Ohio?

The "Coin-Gate" saga spreads deeper and wider.

"But the question now is whether Democrats will capitalize on the growing Republican scandal surrounding the state's $10 million to $12 million loss in rare-coin investments controlled by Tom Noe, a prominent Toledo-area GOP fund-raiser and coin dealer."

Much more...http://www.dailykos.com/story/2005/5/30/0281/24785

1. And more here...

Ohio Honest Elections has a pile of stories (published today) about the Ohio Coin Scandal

2. Let's rumble!

I can't wait until it's time for the popcorn.

If the Democrats play their cards right and hang tough on Frist/DeLay/BOLTON etc. we can get ready to send these idiots packing.

This is one of the most critical points in the history of America.

3. And so much more, right there in Kos's thread:

Keep in mind. The dealer's wife – Bernadette Noe – was the chair of the Board of Elections of Lucas County, until she was pressed to resign just recently due to concerns about the Board's conduct of the November (and earlier) elections.
---->> Bernadette Noe (or Restivo-Noe) was the Lucas County Republican party chair as well, until her (double) resignation.

Several BoE members, Noe and the other GOP member, and Democrats on the Board have recently resigned because of seeming mismanagement of elections, including November.

If we had anything FAINTLY RESEMBLING a free press, this would be blasted all over the nation and the world by now!

8. Speaking of Free Press, I noticed Bernadette has a column

in the latest issue of a newsletter in Ohio by the same name. Can you imagine that?

13. What county locked out observers in Nov 2004?

17. How come our Government cannot determine...

Who impersonated a FEDERAL OFFICER in a swing State during a very important election, especially since our Government was so concerned about somebody tampering with our election process? :shrug:

Did our Government even investigate it? :wtf:

[alfredo]

19. That was very fishy.

[sickinohio]

15. And - I still think that there was something suspicious

about the break-in that happened at the Democratic Headquarters in downtown Toledo, Ohio a few weeks before the election. Computers were stolen from the headquarters. There's probably a connection to all of this I bet ya. We all know how crooked rePukes are.

7. I couldn't agree more..

rock and roll people.

5. No doubt. They launder mostly through arms and drug sales

Its different...this 'coin thing'. Maybe it was Blackwell idea, proving to the Big Boys he had what it takes.

9. Great stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Blade, this is stuff they can do well.

[kster]

10. While we start our search engines

what will you be doing, sitting there waiting for us,10 to 12 million is promising, but why didn't you report the "terror alert" story. We will get Noe , if you publish the stories we already have, about the electing fraud. Why didn't you publish, not one of our stories so far.

[enigmatic]

11. This is a huge story

HUGE. And if the Blade plays their cards right (and they have so far), they can be for W what the Washington Post was for Nixon; the dragon slayer.

12. Should have just locked some bonds in a file cabinet. Seems safer.

[paineinthearse]

14. If you are holding your breath for the FBI investigation

...remember the response Rep. John Conyers has received from them?

Question to Ohio DU'er's - what is the political affiliation for the state's attorney general?

[sickinohio]

16. rePuke I think.

[donkeyotay]

18. Another Republican

He's a Republican, of course. Before he became AG in 2002, he was the state's auditor. So, when did this investment in coins start?
