Is It Just Me, Or Has Anyone Else Noticed....

that Repukes only started winning election after election after election...AFTER the wide-spread initiation of electronic voting?

They never won like this with paper ballots!

And then they wonder why we distrust the electronic voting machines??

When everything that is happening goes against all historical models...goes against all exit-polling data...goes against everything we hear out there in mainstream America...God, I tell you, I go anywhere, and I run into another vocal Bush-hater like myself...but all his supporters?? Where are they? where's all these people who supposedly voted for Dubbya?

Not saying there aren't a few...but nowhere near half the people I encounter would have!

It's only since the introduction and widespread usage of easily-manipulable electronic voting machines, designed and programmed by our political enemies, that our political enemies have made any headway in elections. Coincidence? I think not.

1. Denial--not a river in Egypt

There is a certain level beyond which most people will not go in terms of confronting evil.

Admitting that the very cornerstone of the system--the 'sanctity of the ballot box' to use a fundy term for it--has been removed is a bridge too far for most. They so WANT to believe otherwise.

It is the same reason most could never come to terms with what I came to terms with almost immediately after the WTC towers collapsed. Most people instinctively think or say, "They (meaning our own government) would never do this to our own people."

I already knew about Operation Northwoods and so I almost immediately concluded (with, of course, an open mind willing to be persuaded that it was really what 'they' were saying it was) that our government at the very least allowed it to happen and probably certain key operatives at high levels helped make it happen. I have not been dissuaded otherwise. The strange thing is that 'they' haven't really even tried very hard to dissuade me and others like me. 'They' know 'they' don't have to.

They are counting on the fact that a clear majority of the people in any country will never confront the evil until it is too late. See Nazi Germany as a textbook example.

3. Dead on!

Every time somebody says "That could never happen here," it happens here.

Denial. bu$h's handlers know all about it, especially the part that keeps the sheep from asking questions of the type that would have gotten Bill Clinton drawn and quartered by now.

2. They never won like this

until they started loosing up the Absentee Ballot laws. The taking over of US Elections by the Bush Cabal was a multi-faceted approach.

4. winds of change are blowing

I think they are so focused on immediate goals and ruthlessly committed to obtaining them, what's the end result. So they stole 2 elections, the country is in an ugly mood, if they keep it up, we will have rioting in the streets and looting. I think that they know the people are fed up, 3 people are going to sue over being thrown out of a Bush townhall meeting. States are collobarating to sue over no child left behind. It's not like their actions have no consequences. The popularity of the president and the congress is in the toilet, it's only going to get worse as Iraq explodes out of control.

5. Wait until the 2006 elections when they "win" even more seats in

the house and the senate.

The media will follow along and report on the incredible popularity of W and the repugs and the sheeple will just sigh and go back to American Idol.
