Legitimacy
Edited on Thu Jan-06-05 04:07 PM by Generator
That's what Barbara Boxer has done for us-for all those that wanted to vote and didn't get to, that didn't get their vote counted correctly.

Something that Madsen, Palast, Moore, even (sorry) William Pitt could not give our side. And something, especially, Kerry could not have given us by standing up-and wrongly I know- it being made to seem like he was only standing up for himself-not the voters.

It wasn't just AAR or Common Dreams. It wasn't just a website.

It wasn't the foreign press.

It was a Senator formally protesting this election through the state that gave the electoral win to Bush.

Don't forget that legitimacy and them hearing US is just the first step.

But a major breakthrough.

1. Correct -- Randi was making this point yesterday
Barbara Boxer heard us -- and she stood up for us and thus took away bushie's man date and his legitmacy.

She is the hero of the day, the year and the decade and her name will be recorded in history books.

2. Yes, I actually heard NPR report on this for the first time today!
God bless Barbara Boxer--a woman who obviously has more balls than any of her male peers in the Senate. And an elected official who understands that loving your country and being patriotic is about upholding the Constitution!

4. Exactly correct. Our Senator. Our representative. This is a great day
for civil liberties in this country.

The Republican attack on the disadvantaged and marginalized voters goes this far, no further!
