24. When BushInc is talking mushroom cloud, remember Kerry says it's 5yrs away
as per all the evidence and intel which gives the US plenty of time for diplomacy. That was a key point to remember.

4. He's right about the state by state banning of electronic voting - Kelvin
Mace - our resident DU expert - makes the exact same case. Doing something now with Repubs in the driver's seat will assure another piece of crap like HAVA. I'm glad he GETS that it has to become a national "issue" though, even while it's the states that have to deal with it.

Sounds like you gave him a bit of info he didn't hear - good on you.

10. agreed on all points in this response by BLM
STATE BY STATE DEMANDS FOR ANTI ELECTRONIC VOTING

I'll call my illustrious Tom Feeney within a week and Sen. Mel & Bill (one of three that gives a damn is worth something ain't it?)

11. TOM FEENEY THE HACK!
just a reminder, any FLORIDA resident in the FEENEY district

Last week, Net Neutrality advocates stunned the political world by winning a vote overwhelmingly in a House committee. You were a big part of that win.

Unfortunately, your representative, Rep. Tom Feeney, was not part of it. He voted AGAINST Internet freedom and Net Neutrality—caving to big telecom companies and selling out the Internet.

Can you call Rep. Feeney today to say it was wrong to vote against Internet freedom?

Here are the numbers:

Congressman Tom Feeney
Phone: 202-225-2706
District Offices:
Orlando: 407-208-1106
Port Orange: 386-756-9798
Titusville: 321-264-6113

give him an earful when you can

16. hey Raging... good to see u
wanna argue immigration (JUST. kidding! LOL) I've read some of your posts and thought I'd try to make you laugh off some of the stress of that... I'm glad to see you're still around, and you definitely know my Congressman well. He sounds so PATHETICALLY fake when he calls my house blabbing about his plans (on tape).

21. yes Kerry is right
about that electronic voting that is a problem that will have to be eliminated. That should be handled on a State basis.

17. Not me - So far, he's the only chance this country has to get the books
Edited on Fri Jun-02-06 02:57 AM by blm
opened on BushInc. No other candidate has shown any interest in exposing the years of corruption. Not by their records, anyway. I would welcome hearing that they will side with opening the books.

28. heh - I want Waxman and Conyers in place when Kerry opens those books.
That's why it sickens me when the books were closed in 93 - Waxman and Conyers WERE in place at the time. It was the biggest missed opportunity for Dems to destroy BushInc. once and for all.

Now, we need to HOPE.

20. what a good talk
you had with our real President. I only wish.

You seemed to ask him all vital questions that many of us would have asked. He knows what is happening.

22. What is odd about this is that Kerry knows alot about what's going on -
but, he is the one who has to stay in the background, and probably because the this is just sore loser attack would become the story instead of the facts behind the fraud.

I also believe that there are alot of Dems who never believed machine fraud, and would have earlier stepped forward to say that they think Kerry's being delusional and that it's so sad that he hasn't gotten over his loss. That would be the Clinton crowd. And THEY are the ones who get the corporate media airtime ahead of any other Dem.
