Bush definitely stole Ohio

You just gotta read this article. Go read the whole thing. It's entitled, "Bush, the most hated president ever, stole both elections". Well, I've believed this all along but this article nails it. Here are a few excerpts:

The latest polls say Americans now dislike Bush more than any other president including even Tricky Dick. It only took the public five and half year to see through him.

That said, I wonder how long it will take people to accept the news that Bush never won either election and the country is in such a mess that it will take 50 years to get back to how it was when Bush took office.
...
Some people ended up standing in line for up to 12 hours. But only those people who could miss work and go without pay for a whole day and not get fired for not showing up. And as we all know those people who could not wait in line were certainly not Republicans.

I had never seen anything like it in my life. I knew Bush stole the election by the time the polls closed in Ohio.

I knew it because in working for a major media outlet, by late afternoon I knew that all the exit polls had Kerry winning. But by the time I left work to go home, the news channels were saying "all the exit polls" are wrong. Yea right, all the exit polls were wrong.

Don't people realize how impossible that would be?

I proceeded home to watch the returns and I for sure knew that Bush stole the election the minute the news programs showed him sitting with his family pretending to be all apprehensive when his face and body language told me that he somehow knew there were no ifs about it, his second term was in the bag.
...
Its worth noting here, that there were no problems with the Republicans voting. No waiting in line for hours or anything else. Check it out on the internet by reviewing the news articles in Ohio at the time, all went well in their neighborhoods.
...
And top that off that with the outright fraud that shows that upwards of 80,000 votes for Kerry in one county were counted for Bush instead. "That alone is a swing of more than 160,000 votes," says Mr. [Robert] Kennedy [Jr.], "enough to have put John Kerry in the White House."


Do you realize what a different country we would have today if Kerry had become president? Just think of the Supreme Court for starters. And environmental laws. And we wouldn't be saber rattling with regard to Iran. Oh, I could go on and on.

If the press were doing its job, we'd have investigative reporting on the validity of that election. But the press as a whole shills for the Republicans and slams Democrats. If you don't believe me go read what Media Matters has to say on the subject in an article about media treatment of Democrats. It will truly make you sick.

UPDATE: Read this:

The story of the stolen election of 2004 has FINALLY busted into the mainstream media, thanks to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., and Rolling Stone Magazine.

We all owe them great thanks.

Now we'll see if there's any further media follow-up. And if the Democratic Party actually DOES SOMETHING about the fact that America is about to be hijacked again in 2006, and then for the third straight presidential race in 2008.

The massive article in this week's RS focuses on the impossible contrast between exit polls showing a clear and overwhelming Kerry victory versus bogus "official" vote counts giving George W. Bush four more catastrophic years in the White House. It also details some of the horrific intimidation, manipulation and outright theft used by Ohio's GOP Secretary of State J. Kenneth Blackwell to deny hundreds of thousands of mostly Democratic voters their right to a ballot. And it discusses in some depth the fact that Diebold and other electronic voting machine and software producers make it possible for any inside operator to use a laptop and a few keystrokes to flip an entire election in a matter of seconds.


The above passage is from an article entitled, "RFK and Rolling Stone nail Ohio's stolen 2004 election, but much more must be done". Now let's see what the rest of the press does with this. Will Rolling Stone be denounced, supported, or met with media silence?

Here's the complete Rolling Stone article.
