Flashback to Thanksgiving, 2000 -- when Woodward and Bernstein
BLEW  the biggest opportunity they had since blowing the whistle on
Watergate ---

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

REPUBLICAN DIRTY TRICKS
BOMBSHELL !!!

If THIS scandal gets swept under the rug, it'll be completely
inexplicable.  THIS one is MAJOR!!!

ABC News documented it on its evening news tonight
(Thanksgiving Day, 11/23/2000).

Capitalized words in the quotes below are not "shouts."  They
denote inflective emphasis of those words as they were spoken
in the report.

=  =  =  =  =  =  =  =  =  =  =

NARRATOR:   "At the time, it SEEMED spontaneous -- angry
residents denied the right to see their votes recounted.  But the
REALITY is, it was an ORCHESTRATED Republican protest.
And MOST were not even FROM here."

<<<Camera crew questions a female protester... >>>

REPORTER:  "Are you local?  Are you... ?"

NARRATOR:  "Her guide, a Republican public relations officer,
cut THAT conversation short."

<<<  Her guide takes her by the elbow and whisks
her away from the crew before she can say more
than a few words in response.  >>>

NARRATOR:  "And  SO it has been, ALL week long.  A public
relations effort that has not ALWAYS been so public.  Camped out in a
motor home, in the middle of the media staging area, you would THINK
they would want to TALK about their mission."

<<<  Reporter attempts to talk to a man in the RV, who
responds to him only briefly from behind the door,
before closing it in the reporter's face. >>>

MAN IN RV:    "It's a Bush operation."

REPORTER:  "It's a BUSH operation?

MAN IN RV:   "Yep."

REPORTER:  "What goes ON inside this trailer?"

MAN IN RV:   "Oh... can't talk to you right now."

<<< Man closes door in reporter's face >>>

NARRATOR:  "In ALL, an army of 75 operatives came to Miami
to SHAPE public opinion.  'To help the media,' they said."

<<<  Reporter walks alongside one of them, trying to
interview him... >>>

REPUBLICAN OPERATIVE:  "And we provide a service for you
for surrogates who you'll want to speak to..."

<<<  Scene shifts to an outdoor crowd of protestors, many
armed with professionally-printed signs identical to the
earlier Democratic campaign signs -- except that instead
of "Gore Lieberman," *these* read "Sore Loserman."
Several of them were wearing *printed* signs on their
backs that read, "Enough is Enough."  >>>

NARRATOR:  "But they ALSO got involved in leading demon-
strations.  And were EVEN willing to dress up in seasonal outfits
to provide so-called 'protestor color,' for local news reports."

<<<  Camera shows a person dressed in a turkey costume,
with another person next to him/her holding a 3' x 4' sign

reading, "STUFF THE TURKEY NOT THE BALLOT BOX."
Many protestors gathered around them, holding *printed*
signs reading, "Gore.  Let our MILITARY VOTE."  >>>

NARRATOR:  "In the end, it apparently made a difference.
'Intimidation,' some called it."

DAVID LEAHY, Miami-Dade Election Supervisor:

"If what I had envisioned [had] worked out, and there were no
objections, we'd be up there now, counting."

= = = = = = = =

NOTE:  THAT statement by Leahy is KEY!!!  Later, he tried to
backpedal on it!  But FORTUNATELY, the truth was
already out -- with THIS statement (above).

= = = = = = = =

NARRATOR:  "They are not.  And that Bush operations
trailer -- has moved on.  [This is] Bill Redecker, ABC News, Miami."

=  =  =  =  =  =  =  =  =  =  =

The above is an exact transcription of the report, which I had
videotaped from the broadcast.  VERY surprisingly, since this is
such an OBVIOUS subversion of the election process, ABC News
has NOT yet put this report on its abcnews.com website -- even
though this evening's OTHER stories ARE detailed there.  (????)

If Gore loses this election, there will be three key factors:

(1)  Nader threw the election.  (A circumstance, but a legal one.)
(2)  A fouled-up ballot in Palm Beach County, and no *concerted*
attempt to obtain a county-wide revote to correct that.
(Legal, but very unfortunate.)
(3)  The above DIRTY TRICK.  (Probably legal, according to the
LETTER of the law.  But it STINKS to high heaven, and proves
that the lessons of Watergate were LOST on the Republicans,
who just PROVED themselves to be lower than snakes.)

What a SHAME for America if BUSH should win, in light of this.
And if he DOES, we should remind him for the next 4 years that --
not  only did he get in via the dinosaur of the electoral college (since
he  LOST the POPULAR vote) -- his thugs LITERALLY *stole* the
election through the employment of a VERY sleazy trick.

=  =  =  =  =  =  =  =  =  =  =

CONCLUDING COMMENT, by Craig Chilton, on 2-9-2001 --

(And as we know NOW, his inauguration was the
result of all of the above, AND via judicial fiat on the part
of the U.S. Supreme Court.  Bush is not even REMOTELY
the ELECTED President.  GORE *is.*

Bush is the APPOINTED President.

And the Court ran roughshod OVER the will of the people, to do
that.  The REPUBLICAN-appointed, PARTISAN Justices, ONLY,
accomplished that INFAMOUS, SHAMEFUL and INEXCUSABLE
deed.
