I just got off the phone with Bev Harris and...
they are THRILLED with the response and support!

AAR has been amazing and they ARE getting the funds they need to proceed with the FOIA/FRAUD project.



what a THRILL it is to see DU become SO energized SO quickly after the crushing blow on Tuesday.

I know I had said in my last TOONs thread that I was going into a 'time out' but today has really energized me again.

I will be around less than I was but...

DU rocks, did you know that?

and AAR ROCKS
and BBV ROCKS

even if we don't ultimately overturn this "mandate" we sure can TAINT this 'victory'

32. Excellent, and thank you!
The credit card's humming tonight. I just donated to blackboxvoting.org, and now this.

Thank you very, very much.

I apologize for stealing your graphic.

Perhaps there's something of mine you'd like to steal?

2. I just heard on AAR
that the * Administration is attempting to close down FOIA documents, expecially as they pertain to election results. Is this happening, and, if so, what can be done about it?

8. How can they close down FOIA documents?
I doubt there's any NATIONAL SECURITY implications with 80 year old poll workers.

If they shut this down, it's time for F-ing CIVIL WAR.

17. Maybe this is why everyone went silent...
Because this administration can deny access to anything it wants...IF they know someone is coming for it.

Perhaps this is part of what all the missing lawyers, including JK and JE, have been doing. And they didn't want anyone to be alerted.

?

Or maybe I don't know what I'm talking about.

11. What can be done about it?
Edited on Fri Nov-05-04 07:43 PM by Lindsay
Scream bullshit from every street corner, soap box, T-shirt, LTTE, etc.

If the people do not have the right to know their own votes are counted accurately, then BushCo might just as well put on their brown shirts and proclaim themselves for what they are...corporatist fascists.

Edited because a bunch of folks snuck in before me! LOL

29. FOIA documents?
I'm an old FOIA hand, and I don't know what that means.

Can you elaborate?

start releasing documents.

Do we know where or when they will be released?

26. I like that card. I think Bev Harris is going to be a folk hero
like Mother Jones someday.

Good for her.

27. Please don't use Club Bev.
We just voted down (and I must ask how!?!) the worst of the ReThug of Repukes Bev, thestickittoem, Kilmer. That was her web site, Join Club Bev. This is a woman who bragged about raising 200,000 the first day she declared from PACs. This is a woman for whom the ReThugs of Florida gerrymandered an eleven county district through the heart of NW FL. (Take back state government and end gerrymandering.)

A lot of sleepless nights fearing a Kilmer win.

33. Me three- I saw it on the homepage I went down and filled out a check
It's like donating to prove your existence, to prove reality is not gone,ya know? I don't believe their reality even if I have to live in it.

9. the numbers are in
DU'ers are "counter-punchers" ... we ain't gonna take this shit ...

were we bummed? sure ... but we are burning with an even greater fire now ...

losing an election like this is a tragedy for all of us in the short run ... but it's a great way to build a sustained movement ...

those bastards want a fight; they've got one !!

25. Totally cool! Be sure to donate more than $1, though
They have a $1 service charge on credit card charges.

Let's keep organized, it's fun!
