Back to the Serious.

This from CyberAlert:

" Two network anchors treated as a noble cause, not as an unworthy publicity gimmick without any factual basis, the move by a few far-left cranks in the House and Senate to object to the certification of the Electoral College vote in Ohio in favor of President George W. Bush. ABC's Peter Jennings noted that "the Democrats knew that it was a pretty ceremonial objection," but he stressed how they "regarded it as important." Brian Williams, from Singapore, teased Thursday's NBC Nightly News by assuming facts not in evidence as he presumed there were "problems" in Ohio, "Protesting the vote: Congress forced to interrupt its ceremonial counting of the electoral votes because of problems on Election Day in Ohio." NBC's Chip Reid proceeded to relay, without citing any evidence, how "the objectors cited irregularities in Ohio from alleged intimidation of minority voters to too few voting machines."

Talking to an online black buddy of mine, it seems that this notion has been planted in the black communities mind that too few voting machines were put in black areas on purpose. That is the intimidation. The scheme being that they would have to wait in line too long. Now we all know that black people don't like to wait in line, right? Therefore they would go home and not vote.

This is outrageous!!! This makes those snarling vicious dogs tearing clothes and skin off black people in the 60's look like nothing!!! Who needs water hoses when you have ......LINES! LORD HAVE MERCY! We Republicans are crafty little suckers, aren't we?

This voting machine myth is being put out there to further the notion that Republicans don't want black people to vote. If there were a shred of evidence of that, I would personally send a check to Jesse Jackson's PUSH organization for $1000.
