Morality, morality… thy name is Bushco… so as I write this, the bombs are dropping on Fallujah because hand-puppet Allawi said it was OK for Bush’s soldiers—our children, brothers, sisters, dads and moms—to start the “operation.” Major Falluja assault under way So, as I write this, the election is settled, only it’s not settled (see below and seethe). So, as I write this, Rove comes out of the closet unchained and tells Americans he plans to decree whom they can marry and rip the Constituion in little pieces Rove: Bush serious about gay marriage ban

And the continued rape of the environment hasn’t even made it onto the SCLM’s radar screen. Enviro's hands 'full' with four more years of Bush

And poor elderly in Colorado have to choose between heat and medicine and food. Again, just like two years ago when that Liberal hotbed the Salvation Army wrote this: LIHEAP Newsroom Story

My tomcat has better morals. Anyway, more on the (d)election. Read it and weep tears of anger:

Dick Morris, the infamous political consultant to the first Clinton campaign who became a Republican consultant and Fox News regular, wrote an article for The Hill, the publication read by every political junkie in Washington, DC, in which he made a couple of brilliant points.

"Exit Polls are almost never wrong," Morris wrote. "They eliminate the two major potential fallacies in survey research by correctly separating actual voters from those who pretend they will cast ballots but never do and by substituting actual observation for guesswork in judging the relative turnout of different parts of the state."

He added: "So, according to ABC-TVs exit polls, for example, Kerry was slated to carry Florida, Ohio, New Mexico, Colorado, Nevada, and Iowa, all of which Bush carried. The only swing state the network had going to Bush was West Virginia, which the president won by 10 points."
Yet a few hours after the exit polls were showing a clear Kerry sweep, as the computerized vote numbers began to come in from the various states the election was called for Bush.
How could this happen? Evidence Mounts That the Vote May Have Been Hacked

The poster here is an eye-popper...

A poster named 'TruthIsAll' on the DemocraticUnderground.com forums laid out the questionable results of Tuesday's election in succinct fashion: "To believe that Bush won the election, you must also believe: That the exit polls were wrong; that Zogby's 5pm election day calls for Kerry winning Ohio and Florida were wrong (he was exactly right in his 2000 final poll); that Harris' last-minute polling for Kerry was wrong (he was exactly right in his 2000 final poll); that incumbent rule #1 - undecideds break for the challenger - was wrong; That the 50% rule - an incumbent doesn't do better than his final polling - was wrong; That the approval rating rule - an incumbent with less than 50% approval will most likely lose the election - was wrong; that it was just a coincidence that the exit polls were correct where there was a paper trail and incorrect (+5% for Bush) where there was no paper trail; that the surge in new young voters had no positive effect for Kerry; that Kerry did worse than Gore against an opponent who lost the support of scores of Republican newspapers who were for Bush in 2000; that voting machines made by Republicans with no paper trail and with no software publication, which have been proven by thousands of computer scientists to be vulnerable in scores of ways, were not tampered with in this election."

In short, we have old-style vote spoilage in minority communities. We have electronic voting machines losing votes and adding votes all across the country. We have electronic voting machines whose efficiency and safety have not been tested. We have electronic voting machines that offer no paper trail to ensure a fair outcome. We have central tabulators for these machines running on Windows software, compiling results that can be demonstrably tampered with. We have the makers of these machines publicly professing their preference for George W. Bush. We have voter trends that stray from the expected results. We have these machines counting millions of votes all across the country. Worse Than 2000: Tuesday's Electoral Disaster

Thanks for waiting in line, y’all. Now, surrender goddamit!
