There should be limits to freedom. A dictatorship would be better.
Edited on Fri Nov-19-04 10:50 PM by TruthIsAll
Who cares what you think?

Here are 100 Exit Poll Links: Be forewarned. Only a few know what they are talking about.

Virtually all miss the essential points that...
1- Exit Polls are used throughout the world to check for election fraud.

2- Exit poll accuracy has only been questioned since Bush ran for election in 2000. He won the Selection.

3- The exit polls were right in 2000. Gore won Florida. The blacks and Jews didn't know their ballots were double punched or that they voted the Butterfly for Buchanan. The exit polls were probably right in 2002. But VNS decided not to publish them on Election Day when they saw that the votes were rigged to defeat the Dems in at least 4 states. Remember Sen. Max Cleland in Rob-GA? Robbed blind. But that was just the warmup.

Now it's 2004. Kerry's turn. Opti-Scammed again. Bigger than ever.

4-The pristine pre-1am exit polls essentially agreed with the state polls taken just prior to the election- Kerry won.

5- Critical deviations from the exit polls were in states that Bush HAD to win, like OH and FL. And they all went in his direction.

6- Exit polls had Kerry winning over 300 EV up until the very end, when they were massaged to agree with the Optical Scammers and the Magic Touchscreens.

7- The Democrats pushed for a BBV paper ballot but the Repukes had to HAVA their way: no way, Jose. Just because you get a receipt at the ATM or Walmart or at the movies is no reason to expect one at the Magic Touchscreen.

8- The Repubs use exit polls to determine how many votes they need to skim. They like the exit polls.

9- As Stalin once said: It's not who votes, its who counts them.

10 - As Bush has said:
There should be limits to freedom.
A dictatorship would be better.
Who cares what you think?
