Okay, maybe 25% of Hitler

Which 25? The part that made the soap out of people, the part that incinerated people in ovens, or the part that engaged in ethnic cleansing on an unprecedented, horrific scale? I must have missed the reports about Bush doing those things. Are you suggesting he got campaign contributions from Dial soap and started turning over prisoners to them to make product?

ELECTION THEFT, VOTE FRAUD, GOP SCHEMERS

American Spirit,

Re: Vote Fraud --

Where there is smoke, there is fire......

I share your concerns about the obvious potential for abuse with the new electronic voting systems. Here's some important information on the issue:

Today, Democracy NOW! featured a couple of segments on the potential for vote fraud with our new electronic systems.

Featured guests included Rep. Rush Holt (D. NJ) who has introduced legistation to provide an auditable paper trail to new systems, and an Independent-UK newspaper reporter who has written an important article on the potential for vote fraud with our brave new world of electronic voting.

Also, the Electronic Frontier Foundation is concerned about the potential for abuse:

Here's a mainstream AP/Yahoo story on the issue of potential vote fraud due to GOP corporatists owning and controlling the electronic voting systems:

What Really Happened has an excellent webpage on vote fraud, regularly updated:

I don't know about you, AS, but I'd love to see some of the Democratic candidates start to take on this issue. It can be a real problem for the GOP, if the apathetic public gets the idea in their head that election theft is the main M.O. for continued GOP dominance of the reins of power in Washington. I have every reason to believe that the GOP is cynically manipulating the system and destroying the basis of our democracy. Is Bush like Hitler? Bush, et al, are far more sophisticated and media savvy than Hitler ever was. But the endgame appears to be just as malevolent.
