"...So goes the nation" Bushco propaganda documentary on IFC on how they "won" Ohio

[robbedvoter]

I guess the title comes from "As Ohio Goes..."
Interviews 90% with republicans - plus chiming in from the likes of MacAuliffe, Begala such as "yeah, they killed us with the gay marriage" and such...By the time the GOP-ers were cheering at the OBL tape "endorsing" kerry - I had to turn it off. Did Murdoch buy off the IFC while I blinked? :wtf:

1. Rewriting history

Expect a hell of a lot more of this. This is why Bush sleeps well at night- his handlers have assured him he'll come out smelling like a rose after this.

2. It's why I avoid MSM. But so far, IFC has offered me truthful documentaries

that's why I was so shocked...GOP-ers are always shown smiling and friendly, Dems - always angry...except for Begala and McAuliffe who always agree with them...

3. I only watch alternative

but I cringe now and then when I listen to NPR- the level of pure propaganda in this nation reminds me of why we were told the "Reds" were so bad. Apparently we liked all of the stuff they were doing, cuz we're doing all of it.

5. Independent Film Channel is as alternative as you get on TV except maybe for

Sundance, Link and Current. Another safe haven lost!

4. They do protesteth too much, and too often too! I wonder why?

Is it because the Ohio Attorney General and Secretary of State are doing a forensic investigation of ballot-switching?

The American Center for Voting Rights, in association with various law firms and legal
counsel involved in the conduct of the Ohio presidential election, has assembled this report of
events that occurred during the 2004 election. This investigation found the following:

Third party organizations, especially ACT, ACORN, and NAACP engaged in a
coordinated “Get Out The Vote” effort. A significant component of this effort appears to be
registering individuals who would cast ballots for the candidate supported by these
organizations. This voter registration effort was not limited to registration of legal voters but,
criminal investigations and news reports suggest, that this voter registration effort also involved
the registration of thousands of fictional voters such as the, now infamous, Jive F. Turkey, Sr.,
Dick Tracy and Mary Poppins. Those individuals registering these fictional voters were
reportedly paid not just money to do so but were, in at least one instance, paid in crack cocaine.

The fraudulent voter registrations, however, appear to be only part of the effort of these
organizations to influence the election. There was an apparently coordinated national litigation
strategy to manipulate election laws in battleground states and, specifically, to eliminate the
provisions of election law that would prevent vote fraud. ....

6. Nice to see this - thanks. I dared look at the end - they COMPLETELY SKIPPED

the part where recounts were to be considered. I think they also skillfully cut interviews - I only saw Cahill saying "there was no way we'd make for the 60,000 difference". There was a mutual admiration society all around - with the usual suspects chiming in "they just are so much better than us".
Including some young guy shown cursing at Blackwell for not counting the provisional ballots (I think they made believe this was the one and only problem - but per Cahill - wouldn't have changed the results). So, now this guy too was saying how they're smart and we're dumb - and the last image under the rolling credits was Kerry conceding - quite uneventfully - by this version.

7. No objective person could believe that McAuliffe, Begala and Carville weren't in on it

at this point.

THAT group WAS the representatives of our party from 2000-2005 who sat on their hands and blamed Gore for 2000 while Rove and the RNC worked for their four years to steal 2004.

8. Well, they are certainly more proactive in the cover-up than the candidates who

merely refrain from bringing forth the truth.

9. If there was legal evidence in hand it would be an entirely different story.
