Why didn't we level it in April after we lost all those troops to gain the ground. The marines were mighty pissed having to pull out. You don't give back ground you've died for. Don't start with the liberal media crap showing pics of women and children it didn't happen with OUR media. The pull out was made by bushco for political reasons plain and simple.GAMEFACE said:
Don't let anyone steal the vote
Republicans have engaged in widespread voter suppression programs, from officials who nit-pick voter rolls to eliminate likely Democratic voters, to dirty tricks, such as registering voters and then throwing away Democratic registrants in Nevada and Oregon, and perhaps other states, according to media reports. Republicans have been pretty open about their determination to keep African Americans from voting, where possible. Democrats have assembled legal teams to be prepared to contest Republican vote shenanigans around the nation. If you see electoral fraud, call the national vote fraud hotline, toll-free, at 1-866-OUR-VOTE (687-8683). To find out how to preserve an honest count after the election, contact Nick Biddle of "Save the Election," phone 541-385-5998 or email nick@bendnet.com.
