Elections 2008: Blatant political bias by the mainstream media

Welcome to the Toeg Effect. This is your host, Toeg. Today we discuss the next presidential elections in 2008. We discuss

WHY THE REPUBLICANS HAVE ALREADY WON THE PRESIDENCY IN 2008

We all know by now that Gore actually won the vote in Florida, and by default, the presidency in 2000. At the time, the Supreme Court found itself forced to intervene on behalf of their favorite son, George Bush, when the recount in Florida had reduced Bush's lead down to a mere 537 votes. The country was entering its second month of indecision and the Supreme Court felt that if they didn't stop the hemorrhaging, they could wind up with the wrong person in the White House.

The infamous scrub list of 94,000 people who were suspected felons in that state obviously targeted minorities, mostly Blacks, who voted for Gore at a 93% rate. All those votes were never cast and Bush wound up winning by one of the narrowest margins in our history. When the NAACP sued the voting data company, ChoicePoint's DBT, for violating the civil rights of thousands of Florida black citizens, they won their suit. DBT admitted that only 5% of the people listed on the "scrub list" were unqualified to vote. In other words, 89,300 voters on the 2000 scrub list should be re-entered on the Florida election rolls as qualified voters.

The fact that Jeb Bush, Governor of Florida, and Katherine Harris, Secretary of State in Florida, were never prosecuted for this heinous crime is part of the Bush II junta's long line of illegal activities.

But what most people don't know is that the 2000 election was just a precursor to the one that followed. Just days after the 2004 elections, Greg Palast declared, "Most voters in Ohio thought they were voting for Kerry. CNN's exit poll showed Kerry beating Bush among Ohio women by 53 percent to 47 percent. Kerry also defeated Bush among Ohio's male voters 51 percent to 49 percent. Unless a third gender voted in Ohio, Kerry took the state.

"The election in Ohio was not decided by the voters but by something called spoilage.' Typically in the United States, about 3 percent of the vote is voided, just thrown away, not recorded. When the bobble-head boobs on the tube tell you Ohio or any state was won by 51 percent to 49 percent, don't you believe it ... it has never happened in the United States, because the total never reaches
