Bush
Not Elected... And Not Going Either
by Alan Marston, 12.07.2004
The plot thickens, to the point of solidity. G W Bush was beyond all
shadow of reasonable doubt not legitimately sworn in as the winner of the
2000 Presidential elections in the USA. Now, looking a loser again in
2004, the same crooked gang as put Bush into the White house are
determined to keep him there - this time by not even having an election.
The Bush administration has an `idea' that they can get a delay on the
November presidential election; in case of an attack by al Qaeda. The same
al Qaeda that boosted Bush's popularity on 11/9/01 despite the fact that
Bush was charged with stopping such attacks, and massively failed.
Citizens of the USA have been feed soap opera and disaster movies along
with artifical mother's milk, from birth, it appears this combination
blinds people, to reality. Only the blind cannot see that Bush and at
least his brother are crooks, and that by going along with them millions
are complicit in crimes against sanity.
Nevertheless good old US counterterrorism officials are quite willing on
instruction to conjure up an emergency proposal on the legal steps needed
to postpone the presidential election in case of an attack, Newsweek
reported on Sunday.
"I think it's excessive based on what we know," said Rep Jane Harman of
California, the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, in a
interview on CNN's "Late Edition." Critics like that will hurt the Bush
plan as much as a slap with a wet bus ticket, which is why they got
publicity at all of course.
Meanwhile the Bush administration's many lock tuggers, like Homeland
Security Secretary Tom Ridge, warned last week that Osama bin Laden's al
Qaeda network want to attack within the United States to try to disrupt
the election. Oh dear, such stunning `intelligence!' Newsweek cited
unnamed sources who told it that the Department of Homeland Security asked
the Justice Department last week to review what legal steps would be
needed to delay the vote if an attack occurred on the day before or on
election day. The department was asked to review a letter from DeForest
Soaries, chairman of the new US Election Assistance Commission, in which
he asked Ridge to ask Congress for the power to put off the election in
the event of an attack, Newsweek reported in its issue out on Monday.
The commission was created by Bush in 2002 to provide funds to states to
replace punch card voting systems and provide other `assistance' in
conducting federal elections. In his letter, Soaries wrote that while New
York's Board of Elections suspended primary elections in New York on the
day of the September 11, 2001, attacks, "the federal government has no
agency that has the statutory authority to cancel and reschedule a federal
election."
Homeland Security Department spokesman Brian Rochrkasse told the magazine
the agency is reviewing the matter "to determine what steps need to be
taken to secure the election."
Secure the election indeed, for G W Bush... again.
Only in America.
