Have You Noticed Last Week The TV Pukes Were All Saying Dems Would Win
and this week they're backing down, saying shit like: "well, the democrats are in the lead, but you can't be sure who will win" ??

i think last week they were having a gut reaction and speaking what they believed. but after having a week to rationalize it they're backing down in case their GOP STEALS THE ELECTION AGAIN. this way they will be able to justify another stolen election with their bullshit spin.


and since they are even coming out and saying how they don't trust the machines (jack cafferty was pining about this on his little special) they know a stolen election is a possibility.


another thing that really pisses me off lately is when i hear these discontented pukes whining about the voting machines and how unsecured they are. well, well, well.

i remember a couple years back when we were SCREAMING about this & none of them gave a shit because the assholes they wanted in office got in office. they didn't give a shit how dirty anyone played as long as their team won. but now that they're unhappy with the team they're crying: "the machines! the machines! we need a paper trail!"

(yeah, good, they finally are admitting to the machine problem, but on the other hand i keep thinking: Yeah, well, FUCK YOU!)

(just feeling a bit hostile i guess)

1. Well, that was before the news about the DIEBOLD DISKS broke!!!
The media knows that the polls say the GOP is toast, but now they know "fer sure" that the machines CAN be hacked. So yes indeed, what you're feeling about the situation is likely what the media talking heads are feeling as well. Oh shit, they might do it again, and if they do, well gee, we really DO live in a closeted dictatorship!

FWIW, HBO is doing a documentary on HACKED DEMOCRACY (or some similar title) the week before the election...should be interesting.

2. Oh yes I have noticed this
and on other things too in the past. They seem to report it right the first time and then it's like they got 'the call' from the WH or RNC and are told to say it differently. And they do. I have noticed that late night there are stories that are reported on that literally never see the light of day. I haven't watched CNN too often lately but I know it was like that.

We have been right on so many things, well everything! Now ,like with the war, they are suddenly seeing the light, the polls have changed and it's safe to speak out. Why does it have to come to that, why are we called nuts, the looney left, far out there and then when we turn out right there is no mention that we weren't so looney after all. If this vote is stolen will they finally speak up?

I honestly want to be wrong because how things are headed now is more than a wrong course it's and imminent danger to all of us.
