Voter Caging

I just got this in an email.

If it is true, it is disgusting. In the event that this may be the case, I will post it here and let you decide:

The story is all over Progressive Talk Radio today about the McCain campaign sending absentee ballot applications to registered democrats or people that have donated to Obama's campaign. These ballots are deliberately misleading and have postage paid return addresses that are for an election clerk that is outside of your city or town.

What this will end up doing is either having your vote not counted, or if you return one of these, they will cite you for election fraud, saying that you already voted absentee. These ballots are only being sent out in 'purple states'

and this is a big deal.. This is called voter caging, and is a huge problem.

The McCain campaign is stealing this election as we speak. Please get this information out to as many people as you can ,and tell anyone you know who has received one of these ballots that they need to contact their city election clerk or the supervisor of elections immediately. Also call the local media and let them know what is going on.

The main stream media is never going to cover this so we have to depend on our ground campaign to get the word out to our voters.



On other thoughts....

I just finished watching Bill Maher's show and he had Nomi Klein, the author of The Shock Doctrine.

I was wondering if in typical political fashion, these major bailouts are nothing more than another distraction so we don't look in a different direction and find the "man behind the curtain" yet again.

When the Twin Towers collapsed in a horrific attack, we were told to go shopping and stimulate the economy. Where things just as bad then, as they are today? Were we told to go shopping not because it would upset the terrorist but because they were envisioning a collapse to our economy caused by deregulation?

Now it is out in the open that deregulation has caused all these problems and since no one has any money left to go shopping, we are tapping a trillion dollars worth of TAX PAYER'S money for bailouts.

What else is going on in these closed meetings? What else are we not being told?

At this point I just want heads to start rolling from the top down.

I want all those assets in offshore accounts to be confiscated by the IRS and use that to stimulate the economy.

I want all the subsides given to the oil companies refunded to the American people. I don't understand why is it that it is the American Middle Class that needs to continually sacrifice but no one should expect the CEO's of these multi billion dollar corporations to give up a single dime.

Who the H*** decided that they were more important and "special" than you are?

We had the American Revolution. It is time for the American Evolution.

  1. My fear is that the economy has reached a tipping point and that even "those guys" won't be able to control it and the whole economy will collapse.

    Do you believe Obama will be able to put things right?

  2. anonymous,

    I not only think he can, but he must do so.

    There has been no expectation for change when thinking of electing McCain. However, the bar has been raised high for Obama and I truly feel that he will reach that bar.

    Also, once a President has risen above our lowered expectations, it sets the bar for the next bunch and hopefully, we will all scrutinize their talent/ability and motivations a lot more closely.

    I (God Forgive me) think that George Bush has been the best thing that could have happened to us.... in a WAKE UP! kinda way.

    Come back soon, I love politicating!

    PEACE
