2. "Civil Disobedience" by Henry David Thoreau
Edited on Sat Nov-06-04 02:15 AM by Swamp_Rat
I heartily accept the motto, "That government is best which governs least"; and I should like to see it acted up to more rapidly and systematically. Carried out, it finally amounts to this, which also I believe--"That government is best which governs not at all"; and when men are prepared for it, that will be the kind of government which the will have. Government is at best but an expedient; but most governments are usually, and all governments are sometimes, inexpedient. The objections which have been brought against a standing army, and they are many and weighty, and deserve to prevail, may also at last be brought against a standing government. The standing army is only an arm of the standing government. The government itself, which is only the mode which the people have chosen to execute their will, is equally liable to be abused and perverted before the people can act through it. Witness the present Mexican war, the work of comparatively a few individuals using the standing government as their tool; for in the outset, the people would not have consented to this measure.

3. I am 99.9% convinced that this election was stolen.
Asking Rove not to steal an election is like asking a cobra not to bite you. It is not in their nature!

4. campaign DU-OVER
Edited on Sat Nov-06-04 02:27 AM by brundle_seth
lets get rid of the STUPID no paper trail e-voting, it proved to be faulty, and that is enough to punt that bullshit.

Let's get people (LOTS OF PEOPLE) outside the Diebold corporate headquarters....making a big old stink, that's the best way to get this accumulating reports of "glitches" to get looked at seriously ...(independant investigation)

here's where

Diebold, Incorporated
5995 Mayfair Road
P.O. Box 3077
North Canton, Ohio USA 44720-8077
1-330-490-4000

and lets blanket the media saying we feel the election was stolen, and with the built in plausible deny-ability built in with paperless record voting, there should be enough to make this whole election debacle DU-ne over.

5. DIRECT EVIDENCE
Is the only thing missing at this point. Don't want to just go and pop off prematurely like el chimpster. We've got the tin-foil thing to overcome from the get-go.
