Didn't you find it amusing that speaker after speaker at the convention today did not touch on the economy. And a few times they mentioned it, like Sarah's mention about people economic woes, they did not mention Bush or Cheney as the cause of the economic woes.

I guess we will have to wait and see what McCain has to say about why he thinks he needs to be President. I will be surprised if he says that he deserves to be President because he withstood torture. I would also be interested to see what he has to say about Sarahs accusation that he has no executive experience similar to what she said about Biden and Obama.

Mousavi to disclose tell-all documents
Wed, 01 Jul 2009 17:55:00 GMT

Mir-Hossein Mousavi says he will expose documents proving fraud and irregularities took place in Iran's presidential election.
As the Iranian opposition continues to express skepticism about the election result, defeated candidate Mir-Hossein Mousavi says he will present documents that prove electoral fraud.

Mousavi, who has rejected the result of Iran's presidential election as fraudulent, said on Wednesday that a number of Iranian scholars are set to form a committee to preserve the vote of the people.

The committee aims to "make public documents proving fraud and irregularities in the election," Mousavi said in his latest statement issued on Wednesday.

The opposition leader added that the committee would pursue its objections to the vote result through the judiciary.

"I will join this committee as well," Mousavi confirmed.

The remarks came after Iran's electoral watchdog, the Guardian Council, confirmed the result of the June 12 poll following a partial vote recount and declared Mahmoud Ahmadinejad as the country's re-elected president.

Mousavi, President Ahmadinejad's main rival, had earlier rejected the offer of partial recount and refused to appoint a representative to the special committee.

Mehdi Karroubi, another one of President Ahmadinejad's rivals, also refused to send a representative to the commission over what he described as the "lack of impartiality" among the committee's members, some of whom had publicly supported the president.

The third candidate, Mohsen Rezaei, did not send a representative to the commission either.

Mousavi's move to reveal documents proving electoral fraud comes as Ayatollah Ahmad Jannati, secretary of Iran's top legislative body, announced on Monday that the recount of 10 percent of the ballot boxes had shown no irregularities in the vote.

"The Guardian Council after studying the issues [pertaining to the Iranian election] in several sessions, dismisses all the received complaints, and approves the accuracy of the 10th presidential election," Jannati said in a letter to Interior Minister Sadeq Mahsouli.
