The Disinformation Campaign ‘Penny-loafer protesters’ didn’t cow Miami-Dade officials.

By William P. Kucewicz, editor of GeoInvestor.com and a former member of the
Wall Street Journal editorial board

eam Gore is waging a disinformation campaign worthy of the KGB.
During the Cold War, Soviet intelligence regularly planted erroneous
information about the United States in communist propaganda organs
around the globe. The aim was literally to create a story — to
manufacture news that had little or no basis in fact — in order to taint
America in the eyes of the world. Now, Americans (and the world) are
being treated to an equally fraudulent disinformation campaign by the
Gore-Lieberman do-whatever-it-takes, plow-through-to-victory team.

The Gore camp would have us — and presumably Circuit Judge N.
Sanders Sauls — believe, in the words of the vice president himself, that
election officials in Miami-Dade County "brought the [ballot] count to a
premature end in the face of organized intimidation," resulting in an
"inaccurate and incomplete count" of the presidential election results in
Florida. Joseph Lieberman called it "the rule of the mob," and Rep. Ed
Markey (D., Mass.) decried a "Republican riot" that "shook the
foundations of democracy."

Each was referring to last Wednesday's demonstration by up-in-arms
protesters inside the Miami-Dade County Hall chanting sixties' style
slogans and pounding on a rattling set of double metal doors behind
which the county canvassing board was trying to count ballots.
