#1 CNSNews, not an major MSM outlet - wotta surprise, heh. Oh goody, more coup de'tat morons posing as "observers". And Hastings. Right. Next we'll hear that Marion Barry will be join the fun, too. We're talking unique integrity, here. A little cash for Alcee and a few lines for Marion and they'll prolly attest to anything.

This shit is so lame, so fuzzy-brained, and so typical of the LLL that it's not funny, anymore. The Black Caucus, NAACP, the Urban League, et al, had better wake up before they find themselves as complete outcasts. They've let themselve be hijacked by the fringe loonies. All of the strides made in the last 40 yrs are being squandered by the current crop and their LLL money-men / advisors. What a terrible waste. This is beginning to look like the Paleos - burning decades of well-intentioned goodwill for nothing, just guaranteed grief for themselves and worse, for their constituencies.

Sigh. Idiotic and myopic tools and fools.

Thx, AC - amazing shit's coming down.

#2 You're welcome, .com
You know, my blood ran cold when I saw Paul's statement about OSCE's verdict in the Soros orchestrated Georgian fraud.
Lock and load, guys, it's going to hit the fan in November.

#3 Claiming that elections are fraudulent or stolen will be standard operating procedure for the Democrats from now on. This will be accompanied by lawsuits that may tie up election results for months as in 2000. The Dems want to move election decisions to the courts. These tactics also provide distraction and cover for the Dems own fraudulent voting schemes.

#4 Unless they win, of course.

#5 This Dems will be the Dems, but the OSCE is only here to observe the election and NOT monitor. The were also invited to observe the recall election here in California. They don't have any electorial power and can't overturn votes. After the discover of the dual (NY/FL) Democrat voters, I don't think the Dems should cry fraud too loudly. Any one want to guess how these people voted in Florida?

#6 I dunno Sarge, this smells like a beach-head to me. Once the volk are accustomed to observers, the next step will be monitors. They will make the case that because observers have no jurisdiction, we need the monitors. This $h!t needs to be brought to an end.

#7 I saw on Fox the other day that the AFL-CIO will also be 'observing' the election. You know they will cry 'disenfrancisement' in any district where the conservitives win.

#8 I have observed elections in Eastern European countries in the early 90s. It's really not a big deal. All you do is you look at some technicalities... for example how do the authorities make sure that nobody votes twice, are voters intimidated, are the ballots fair (equal sizes for all candidates) etc.
Rather strange that they would pick such a felon.
One thing to note: The OSCE is not an European Organization, as the U.S. and Canada (plus Central Asian states) are members.
Another thing: The State Department was under legal obligation to formally invite the OSCE observers (Before 2000 the OSCE didn't bother to send some though). Former President Bush signed this agreement. U.S. observers actually observed the French elections and nobody took issue.
OSCE observers have proved useful in not so democratic countries simply to deter officials from the worst frauds (or delegate those frauds to areas without observers). All the observers do is publish a report months after the elections that might affect future financial and political cooperation with those states.

OK here is the coffee alert. It's not impossible that they will invite me. Haven't decided yet whether to have a good laught at it or enjoy some sponsored sunny holidays in Florida (German november is grim).

Any suggestions?

#9 asking members of the Democratic left wing, it's probably hard to find someone without a criminal record. Hastings is a hack, piece of shit, convicted felon, and that's who they turn to for election advice/oversight. Sez a lot

#10 TGA - Ship and CF are our resident Floridians, I believe... They can tell you where you want to be in Flatland, lol! I can only tell you to nix Jacksonville - very boring! I loved the "panhandle" area - Panama City was fun! I took a batallion-level Article 15 for going there once, heh. Laid 4 times in 36 hrs - it was worth it!

#11 OK, I can look at a ballot, make sure it is written in proper English (or is that Spanish in Florida?). Takes ten minutes and then off to fishing...lol.
