Susan wears tinfoil
When Susan Sarandon was asked by Bill Mahrer last night what the biggest problem we face is she replied "Voting fraud."

The usually informed Bill did not know what she was talking about and she stated a few examples that you can see in many places here on DU.

Than she said QUOTE

"Something BIG is coming."

2. so, why do you think she's wearing tinfoil?
I hope to God that something is coming, something that proves to me that the Democratic leadership hasn't given up this ship.

7. I don't think she wears tinfoil
I hate that term. But that's what some of our fellow DUers say about us who believe there was massive voter fraud and we can do something about it.

12. I enjoyed your sarcasm
At this point anyone who starts hinting at voter fraud is most definitely being looked at as a tinfoil sporting conspiracy nut. I suspect that's why the dems and the likes of Michael Moore are eerily quiet at the moment. I have to believe they are working quietly to gather evidence that will be overwhelming and irrefutable. God I hope so.

14. oh sorry. I should get my sense of humor back out again, I suppose
Laughter is good medicine and I suppose jokes are a good sign.
My sense of humor has gone into hiding mostly, although it peeks out occasionally. I'll drag it out later for a big gulp of fresh air. Maybe people will start posting kitty-cat threads in the lounge again, that will help me a lot.

25. "Tin-Foil Hat"
"Tin foil hat' is a term coined by coincidence theorists

3. Nightjock - how interesting . . .
I wonder what she means!! I hope they have located a "deep throat" that will admit to hacking the votes and I hope they keep him/her protected.

What else could it be folks?

20. Just Imagine
For just one moment...

I know it's a longshot....

If it happens, it's better than Kerry outright winning honestly on November 2nd. The ENTIRE nation and the world would see the bush administration for what they really are!
Corrupt, lying, greedy, facists!!!!

Rumsfeld, asscroft, ect. all come tumbling down in flames on non stop 24 hour news (and karl rove doing the "perp" walk with cuffs on too!)

Will it happen? Probably not. But stranger things have happened.
And now Ralph Nader has joined our side.

4. She's one of my favorites...
I hope she's right and I'm so disappointed that our usually informed types, Maher and Jon Stewart, seem to know NOTHING about this....

5. We sooo need people like her to get this out there
I know we are biased , but even a mathmatical simpleton , could look at the reults and see that the figures don't add up , particularly those of Florida's optiscan machines .

10. That's all she said
Something BIG is coming.
You can see the replay of the show tonight on HBO at 10 Eastern.

If there is something "big" coming, they should not make alot of noise about it.

13. Actually, she sounded confused. One minute it was rigged, the
other it was lost.
Sorry if her laughter at the expense of Palm beach voters on Letterman in 2000 still rings in my years...
I was ready to hear some clear message from her - but she sounded like SHE WAS A TIN FOIL

15. That was the COOLEST thing I have EVER seen in my LIFE!
My husband and I were just looking at each other! I had just shown him the NH data that morning when I finished the breakdown by equipment, and he was getting a little nervous, and then that night SUSAN SARANDON is talking about it on NATIONAL TELEVISION!!! Woo Hoo!

17. Same language as Atrios: "Something's coming"
Edited on Sat Nov-06-04 10:03 AM by Jersey Devil
http://atrios.blogspot.com/

"Something's coming - The movement continues"

Scroll down the page - no details - then he closed his blog mid-afternoon on Friday saying he is taking a break.

23. Good God DU is my lifeboat
I'm clinging on. Gotta watch that part of the show. Does Maher diss Kerry in the beginning? Cause even as betrayed as I feel I don't want to see that.

24. No. Mahrer makes fun of himself.
Going to Gitmo, ect.

Susan is in the first 20 minutes. Pay attention when she comes on.
