Dispelling
Some
Exit Poll Myths
From the 7:30
p.m. exit poll to the final
numbers, Bush gained 6% --reversing a 51-48 Kerry lead into
a Bush 51-48 lead. Some common myths:
1. The earlier exit poll oversampled women. Wrong.
The 7:30 p.m. exit poll had 54% women
and 46% men.
The final exit poll data had 54% women
and 46% men.
2. The earlier exit poll oversampled minorities.
Wrong.
The 7:30 p.m. poll had 11% blacks and
9% hispanics. The final poll data had
11% blacks and 8% hispanics.
3. The earlier poll oversampled democrats. Wrong.
The 7:30 p.m. poll had 38% democrats.
The final exit poll had.. 37%. democrats.
4. The earlier poll undersampled rural voters.
Wrong.
The 7:30 p.m. poll had 16% rural voters.
The final exit poll had.. 16% rural
voters.

Ohio's
Missing Votes:
The Triad Factor
In the 41 Triad counties the Kerry vote was 0.95%
less than Gore's vote, whereas in the other 47 counties Kerry
averaged 2.51% more than Gore.
If the Triad counties had given Kerry the same percent as non-Triad
counties, then he would have 48,746 more votes than recorded.
Adjusting for the exit poll discrepancy as well, gives Kerry
143,412 more votes in the Triad counties, more than enough
to win Ohio.

Republican Reed faces
GOP wrath over recount decisions
Washington Secretary of State Sam Reed is taking
some flack.
On talk radio, in blogs and elsewhere, republicans have questioned
his party loyalty, his choice of attorneys, his hands-off approach
with county auditors and nearly all the decisions he made that
led to his certification of Democrat Christine Gregoire as governor-elect
by a 129-vote lead. A friend of 30 years, John Giese, wrote:
"I am one of those who has no intentions of supporting you in
the future...."

Bush knives father's advisers,
handing control to neocons
Bush has unceremoniously dumped Brent Scowcroft,
his father's closest associate and friend, as chairman of
the foreign intelligence advisory board. The elder Bush's national
security adviser was the last remnant of traditional Republican
realism within the administration.
Republican elders who warned of endless war are purged. Those
who advised that Saddam had WMD'd, and that the war operation
would be a "cakewalk", are rewarded.

Ohio Judge Denies Knowing Of Presidential Election Fraud Plot
Ongoing developments in Ohio legal cases have
the potential to blow the lid off corrupt practices in Ohio's
political and judicial spheres
And to land a sticky mess of election fraud and judicial bias
before the US Supreme Court and/or legislators convening to
roll-call the electoral college votes on Jan. 6th, 2005.
In an Ohio voters legal suit, the chief justice of the Supreme
Court of Ohio has denied having personal knowledge of a plot
to steal votes and has refused an emergency motion to recuse
himself from the case.

TEFLON
KERRY:
More Slick Moves On Election Fraud
Under cover of John Edwards' late night promise to "count
every vote," Kerry's lawyers have been adeptly pursuing evidence
that could reverse the election outcome, while keeping their candidate
so Teflon-coated that he remains untouchable by "sore loser,"
or "conspiracy theory" jibes.
In the last few days, Kerry has launched a further escalation
of his legal involvement, while also leaving casual observers
even more convinced that Bush is safely ensconced in office. It
was yet another political dance routine with Kerry's now familiar
two steps forward, one step back footwork.

Last Thursday night, his lead attorney on the ground in Ohio,

This evening, after several Web columnists and bloggers joined

If you haven't been following John Kerry closely,

The vote-defrauded, potential president-in-waiting has just

seeking to expedite court proceedings in an ongoing recount

No Holiday for Vote Thieves
John Conyers, Jr., the ranking Democrat on the
House Judiciary Committee is confident that a few U.S. Senators
will join House members on January 6 to question the November
2 election.
Conyers has thrown a spotlight on GOP vote crimes. How 'high'
these crimes can be connected is another story. Those who act
in concert with others to violate the Voting Rights Act or related
laws should be confronted with the prospect of conspiracy charges
in addition to criminal penalties (prison time) for individual
offenses. That’s the way gangsters are brought down, every day.

The
Great American Treason
In the wake of the Bush dictatorship's 2000
coup and the corruption-ridden "election" of
2004, a nation that has imposed fraudulent democracies all over
the world has finally
become a fraudulent democracy itself.
The Ukraine is democracy in birth-pangs,
while America is democracy in death-throes, where corruption
and fraud have become entrenched and accepted as part of the
political landscape.
How did America arrive at this sordid state?
By means of 9/11, that's how. This has led to
widespread speculation that Bush and/or
his inner circle encouraged or
permitted the 9/11 attacks.

"Last

by Al Giordano
Chiapas, Mexico 12/15
I keep imagining the last moments of Gary’s life. He is looking
down the barrel of a gun. Everyone he has ever trusted or
loved has abandoned him: By that I mean everyone, including
you and me.
The hand on the trigger at that moment is not his alone. Gary
had to wait in line behind all those who set his suicide in
motion years ago. It was a miracle he didn’t do this back when
Mercury News editor Jerry Ceppos, now 58 and V.P. of Knight-Ridder,
pulled the trigger on the most authentic journalistic career
of the late 20th Century.
Gary never wrote with mere ink or pixels. Gary opened up a vein
every time he sat down to tell us a new truth and he signed
his byline, always, in blood. Fellow and sister journalists:
The canary has died in the coal mine.
If only! If only! Why didn’t he tell
us? Why did he have to die alone? Well, listen the fuck

Wayne
Madsen's
Vote Fraud Tale Spin
DEBUNKED
by Fintan Dunne
When
ex-NSA employee, Wayne Madsen hit the Internet with his tale
of a massive electronic vote-stealing operation costing tens
of millions of dollars, the story was greeted with skepticism
by vote fraud activists. With good cause.
Despite their hunger for any report that would shed light on
the exact method by which Bush had subverted the will of the
people, Madsen's story --featuring a Cayman island bank, an
offshore trust and a payoff check to conspirators for over $29
million-- was just a bit too tinfoil-hat for most.
Madsen reassured the doubters with promises to put more flesh
on the bones of the story. After failing in two subsequent missives
to add substantial details, he's finally laid it all out.
Unfortunately, even fully-fleshed, Madsen's story is a corpse
with no detectable pulse and a missing heart. ...MORE

"According to a notarized affidavit signed by Clint Curtis,
while he was employed by the Yang Enterprises, Inc., during
2000, Feeney solicited him to write a program to suppress the
Democratic vote in counties with large Democratic registrations.
According to Curtis, Feeney and other top brass at Yang Enterprises,

Re-Vote,
Not Recount, in Ohio
The election in Ohio stinks. But a recount
probably won't do much good in three counties that have suspicious
numbers -- Franklin, Mahoning, and Warren. We have votes in
three important counties that may have been lost forever.
However, we have numerous reports of civil rights violations
and voter suppression throughout the state. With all
these anomalies that may be uncorrectable through a recount,
the only logical solution is to conduct a re-vote throughout
the entire state using paper ballots.

Something's
fishy in Ohio
BY JESSE JACKSON
The vote in Ohio decided the presidential race, but it was
marred by intolerable, and often partisan, irregularities and
discrepancies.
In one of dozens of examples, Ellen Connally, an African-American
candidate running an underfunded race for Cheif Justice at
the bottom of the ticket, received over 257,000 more votes
than Kerry in 37 counties. She ran better than Kerry where she
wasn't known than she did where she was known and did campaign.
It's 3 weeks after the election, and Ohio still hasn't counted
the votes and certified the election. There should be a federal
investigation of the vote count, with the partisan secretary
of state removing himself from the scene.

Baghdad with the airport. The British and U.S. embassies

barred diplomats from using it.
The highways west are even more dangerous --with rebels around
Ramadi and Fallujah. The road south goes through ''the triangle

like Samarra and Tikrit. Leaving the airport as the ''safest''

Dahr Jamail: This is propaganda of the worst kind. Most

They are people who have had family members killed, detained,

U.S. Used
Weapons of
Mass Destruction
November
9th, 2004 was Fallujah's 9/11 Tuesday. It marked the peak of
3 days of indiscriminate bombing by US forces.
The bomb blitz featured weapons of mass destruction:
banned napalm-type munitions, chemical poison gas and super-bombs
of up to 2,000-pounds.
The ground assault was also indiscriminate. The target was a
city where at least 60,000 civilians outnumbered rebel fighters
by over thirty to one.
The evidence of those crimes is accumulating, as accounts by
aid workers' from inside Fallujah manage to bypass reporting
restrictions.

I
Am Become Death -
The Destroyer Of The Worlds:
Fallujah was pure and simple Nazi-style collective punishment -
not liberation. Fallujah is now a hell on earth of crushed bodies,
shattered buildings and the reek of death. The US, is planning
similar attacks on scores of other Iraqi cities and towns. ..more

The
Death Knell
of White Supremacy
The pundits are working overtime carving up the remains of
the Kerry campaign. But the first thing to get straight is,
what died here?
If we're fortunate, what died is the last illusion people had
about the nature of this system and how to resist or change
it. The corpses available for dissection -- the Democratic Party,
the 'democratic republic,' and the labor-liberal
alliance -- are rotten and stinking zombies with the flesh falling
off the bone.
If some good does come from this election, it will grow from
the unavoidable recognition that because of white supremacy
and the grip of empire, the U.S. is the global bastion of reaction
and racism.

How
to Market a Siege:
The US Media and Fallujah
The Allawi government has repeatedly scolded reporters for stories
that have been critical of the occupation. In the case of Al
Aribiyya, a bomb blast killing 7, outside their Baghdad office
was just the first shot fired over the bow.
Two weeks later their reporter was arrested in Falluja and hasn't
been seen since. Last week two Sunni Clerics, were gunned down
as they left their homes.
The message is clear; anyone who speaks out will be killed.
The US is now using Mafia-style hit-teams to establish order
and quash dissent.
Meanwhile, the real story of Falluja is nowhere to be found
in American media.

"We’re
committing
genocide in Iraq"
A 12-year Marine veteran, former Staff Sergeant Jimmy Massey's
disillusionment began as a recruiter, when he started to question
the Marines preying on young people from economically depressed
areas. His feelings would soon be deepened by his experience
in Iraq.
Massey said that the hostility of the Iraqi people to the presence
of the US military grew exponentially in direct response to
the brutal methods employed by American troops against the entire
Iraqi population.
"It’s kind of hard to tell someone that they are being
liberated when they just saw their child shot or lost their
husband or grandmother."

a few phone calls away from the 9/11 plot in late August 2001.
The FBI is a client of ChoicePoint, and for information on people
it seeks, regularly taps the largest U.S. database of public
records on individuals .
In late August 2001, the FBI had an investigation underway into
two of the men who turned up on 9/11 as hijackers. ChoicePoint
had up-to-date telephone listings for both men. The FBI say
they never made the call.
