Hannity was talking about Election Fraud on "Faux" News!
I was flippin thru channels late last night and came across this black man-I didn't catch his name(Hilary is what Hannity called him I think)But he was talking about Ohio and the evidence of fraudulant activity.He was very calm and very credible.It may be the Dem. Senator from the group that launched the investigation-butI don't know.
Hannity was all mad and up in arms about it-Saying the Dems are trying to discredit the "President" and put doubt on the election.
He was also asking why 'we' weren't investigating another state that Kerry won by only 11,000 votes if this wasn't about overturning the elction and was 'nonpartisan' as we claim it is!

We are having an impact.They wouldn't be talking about this and acting so worried if there weren't real concerns that the Investigation could lead to something "Big"!!

2. One of these days...
Hannity will finally snap and finally descend into the crystalline logic of "Neener, neener, neeeeeener!" and "And two for flinching!".

What a goon. The embarassment from having to share air with him is nearly crippling.

I can *never* watch him for more than 3 seconds-he just repulses me with his hitler like devotion to *.

So when I saw this man talking about election fraud and getting the best of him(Hannity)It was A-Mazing thing to watch-Actually made me stop,look and listen!HA!It is a *good thing* as Martha would say.

Thanks for the post, I never would have known this since I refuse to watch the little prick - he makes me :puke:

Remember to ask the whining repugs if they want some cheese with their whine! :nopity:

19. It is also on some conservative talk radio
I flipped on Glenn Beck's show this morning (the one which ironically - or maybe the joke's on us - uses the riff from Rage Against The Machine's "Killing in the name of"), and some guy subbing for Beck had Ken Blackwell on the phone.
The two of them whined for a while about the Democrats and the greens/libs 'fronting' for them.
Blackwell kept insisting that the election was fair and totally bipartisan and blah blah.
At one point Blackwell said (paraphrasing here), "There's an urban legend around here that Diogenes was searching around for an honest man, and he came across Jesse Jackson, raised his lamp up to his face, looked at him real close, then just kept walking"
The host guy laughed and said "Whoa, those are fighting words"
And Blackwell said (again para.) "You're daggone straight they are. We got this guy coming into *OUR* state, running around screaming 'Fraud' and then he jumps on a plane paid for by the DNC and leaves"
Then they accused Rev Al Sharpton of being a paid malcontent for the DNC.
Then I turned it off, in the interest of keeping my breakfast down.

faux sig line: "They rally round the family, with pockets full of shells." Bulls on Parade, Rage Against the Machine

21. This is unbelievably great!
They are freaking out! Running around like ferrets on crack! We must be getting very close to the nerve now. They can no longer ignore us, and they are desperately flailing and name-calling. As usual, they are completely incapable of addressing the actual facts. All they can do is attack the messenger. We are now officially on the right wing media, and I am so ecstatic.

24. Thats another thing Hannity
Edited on Fri Dec-10-04 12:32 PM by Kellis
was saying-That the Greens and Libs were a front for the Dems/Kerry.....

Now....why would they say something like that......I mean could it be that they are on to the fact that Kerry realizes he would have been "Gored" if he had fought the results on Nov 3rd....and that by investigating it the way we are makes it so thet Kerry doesn't get mud stuck to him-which in the end makes him look good...?

They want Kerry to come out so they can make him look bad-no doubt.
Kerry is doing the right thing by not be the front man of the investigation.

Thanks for the post pgh_dem.Its funny all this talk of election fraud is going on in repuke forums and we aren't even aware of it.

29. They are going to be sorry they picked Blackwell for their evil minion
this time around. Hate to say it but he's no Katherine Harris. Cruella de Ville Harris was cool as a cuke, she just certified that election for *(before the votes had really been counted of course) and never blinked a heavily mascarad eyelash. Blackwell on the other hand, I predict, is going to crash and burn, he is already sweatin it like Albert Brooks in Broadcast News. Kenneth 'Wormtongue'Blackwell hasn't got the twig and berries of steel he's going to need in this case. I can't wait.

BTW, one of the reasons they are trying to discredit Sharpton right now, is because he will make mincemeat out of Blackwell when the time comes. They are starting to get worried and it's a beautiful thing to behold.

I never listen to conservative radio or tv, blood pressure rises, stomach revolts,start bleeding from the ears when I do, but thanks for the update.

New mantra for Ohio, in reference to Blackwell (apologies to peeps who are not Lord of the Rings Fans)
The Wormtongue's going to turn.

31. My thoughts run along those same lines
Blackwell is definitely a weak link for the BFEE. Not only is there no way he'll stand up under pressure, but there's REALLY no way he's going to take the fall without naming names and cutting a deal to save himself. He'll roll over so fast and so far he'll circle the globe in record time. ;)

Twig and berries?! Never heard that one before. ROFL!

9. the Hilary guy
Edited on Fri Dec-10-04 11:55 AM by stellanoir
was on the panel at Wednesday's hearing. I'm pretty sure he is one of the NAACP head honchos, if not the head honcho.

On second thought, he may just head the NAACP in DC. Not sure obviously.

on edit- those better informed than me beat me to it

Whooops

22. That's right!
Excellent! We did recount a state that Kerry narrowly won! They can't complain that we aren't looking for irregularities or fraud in general, because that is the real reason for doing this. And since we know who is responsible for fraud, we have nothing to fear by recounting any state, where the Repugs definitely have a lot to fear in recounting OH, FL and other battlegrounds! :hippie:

18. How 'bout that Repug on Countdown last night...
who said that the Repug politicians agreed to review the 'irregularities' and related issues in late January or February! He acted so 'transparent' about it...like he and other Repug Rep's had nothing to hide...but indeed were cooperating with Dem investigation. Haaaa! Like we'd really be foolish again to wait until AFTER Inauguration to actually count ALL the votes! Somehow I think not!

20. the funny thing is that the repukes could challenge
other states but they won't because they know it would be counterproductive and give more votes to kerry. they cheated eerywhere and they know they have no options to mine for votes.

25. right.
And Hilary's answer to that "investigate other states" question was "Yes, we need to investigate any and all claims of fraud anywhere in the country."

26. This part is very funny
"Dems are trying to discredit the "President" and put doubt on the election."

besides the fact that the election was stolen
we really do not have to do any thing at all to discredit him
he does something new everyday to discredit himself

33. It's public opinion molding...
I think the right wing media has been relatively silent on the issue because the mainstream media has also been silent. Now that things are starting to heat up, I expect we will see much more of this. Fox and company would remain silent if the issue was going to fade away. But it's not. So they will try to make this a public issue in the context of "discrediting the President." They have also started making it about "wasting tax payer dollars" because the real cost is purported to be far greater than the money raised by the candidates to pay for it according to state law.

It is sad that the first time most people hear about the issue it will be from a right wing/corporate media source like Fox and people will see it as a democratic sore loser waste of money attack on the president when it is really about the integrity of our Democracy.

Also my suggestion is - know thy enemy - tune in to Fox on a regular basis or Rush during your commute so you will know what you are up against when trying to discuss issues with most people.

34. ....
It isn't sad at all.On the contrary-it is excellent that Hannity is talking about this.They can spin it anyway they like.It isn't going to change the numbers and the proof of fraud out there.Nor will it stop the investigations going on.

They got a Democratic major league players' view on the issue when Hannity talked about Election Fraud.Hilary is the man I would want oblivious right wingers to hear about this issue from for the first time.

But good job sticking up for Faux-I think I will take a pass on tuning into FAux & Ruch "on a regular basis" though.I get enough of their views in the MSM without having to resort to seeking them out.
