...that we're looking into voting irregularities.

Nor would they be trying to hack certain websites, etc.

1. Exactly.
If they were really sure that they'd gotten their "mandate", why the fuss? So what? Count. Same thing as in 2000. They know they're up to something and they know what it is.

And thus, WE know we're on the right track!

2. If we were that confident
in facts and evidence and pursuit of the truth we wouldn't keep looking for signs someone else cared who doesn't.

Yes, the hacks are refreshing proof of our relevancy as really, politically, we pose no danger whether we know the truth or not. Anyone attacking Nader? No, oblivion is what they wish for him. We are something new and amorphous, piddling hoi poiloi.

We are not the ones they fear. It is their own lies. Constant insecurity and escalated aggression go hand and hand whatever bold, triumphant face they wish to present. It is the truth and the simply decent people that
rest so quickly on their laurels. Ah, Kerry wins, Clinton wins! Surely truth triumphs!

That is our temptation, our lookout. The Right never rests easy because, facing God they will suddenly realize their relative position is changed to the perspective of the judge. They are on God's left, the side of Bush's pet goats.

It is the just who surprisingly find themselves on the "right", sheep to the truth that they are. The Final Recount.

Republican connection to e-voting

I posted this post in general and guess what the first person to respond to it was someone trying to debunk it. Every post that anyone posted they were quick to say it isn't possible. They were also quick to jump on the Massive conspiracy theory wording. I think they are afraid of what we know. Ironically by their trying to debunk everything they drew more attention to the post. Isn't that the perfect irony?
