Outrage overload...

[judith_s]

Politics is just making me sick. (Yes, I am doing some volunteering, in fact, I'm probably going to be one of the lawyer poll watchers in a swing state. We haven't figured out who we should give money to yet... somehow the DNC and Kerry's campaign both seem too incompetent to use it well.)

I mean, OK so you organize the CIA to rig the elections in Iraq. Not a surprise. But then it comes out BEFORE the elections. These people are not only evil, they are stupid evil. Is there even an alignment like that? It seems that the administration is doing everything in its power to screw this up as badly as possible. Could we make more enemies if we were trying?

Re: poll watching. Go you.
Re: Election Rigging... Well, there's always the tried and true Allende strategy.
Sorry, that probably was not outrage-defusing.
Thanks for the link though, I hadn't seen that yet.

I feel better knowing you will be poll watching. However, I am not at all surprised that the CIA is aiming to rig elections in Iraq. It seems to me that this is MO for the CIA. I would almost be disappointed if they weren't trying to rig the polls in a foreign country, especially one the US is occupying.

BTW: What's word on how far from the polling place we have to be to set up signs educating people they have the right to a paper ballot?
