Author-filmmakers Michael Moore and Greg Palast joined with Representatives Corrine Brown (D-Jacksonville) and Peter Deutsch (D-Ft. Lauderdale) to demand steps, as Palast said, "To prevent Republican hacks in Florida swiping the election of 2004 as they did four years ago."

At a press conference Wednesday morning before the Florida delegation to the Democratic Convention in Boston, Moore endorsed a bill introduced by Brown to make it easier for Congress to challenge an election tainted by apparent fraud.
"Don't let them steal Florida again," said Palast, the investigative reporter who in 2000 first uncovered for BBC Television that Katherine Harris and Jeb Bush had wrongly removed tens of thousand of Black citizens from voter rolls. Palast's reports on the theft of the elections are featured in Moore's film "Fahrenheit 9/11."

I really think this is the worst of all. The Dems keep telling Black Americans that the Republicans are trying to "keep them down" when the exact opposite is true. Unfortunately, Black Americans believe it. All you have to do is read a bit of history to get the truth, but the Dems don't WANT Black Americans to know anything about history. So they're against "no child left behind" because that will call to account schools and teachers who pass Black American kids on to the next grade... and the next and the next, until the kids get a high school diploma, but can't read. THAT is what the Democrats want. STUPID AMERICANS. As long as they have that, they can feed all these stupid Americans lie after lie after lie after lie (seems I've heard that line somewhere before), and the minions will all become kool-aid drinkers. I'm mad as hell....er Zell.... I'm MAD!
