Bush-Votescam 2002

By Salvador Astucia, Nov. 7, 2002 *

What are the odds that President George W. Bush would be involved in two extremely close elections, first in the 2000 Presidential election, again in the 2002 mid-term election?

Tuesday’s results have all the earmarks of a rigged election. Many factors point to this conclusion.

First of all, rigging an election in the United States is not that difficult. Journalists James and Kenneth Collier wrote a book on the topic: "Votescam," published in 1992. The authors asserted that US elections have been rigged since the early seventies. (1)

Voter News Service (VNS), the system used to tally votes electronically, is owned by six media members: ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, Fox and The Associated Press. (2)

These media members are collectively owned by media conglomerates AOL Time Warner, Walt Disney Company, Universal Studios, Viacom, Inc, General Electric, and News Corporation Limited; AP notwithstanding. (3)

Associated Press is the oldest and largest cooperative news agency in the world. (4)

Membership to the elite class of people who run the US news media is extremely restrictive. The common denominator amongst the heads of virtually all media outlets is Jewish heritage. Individuals may change, but the song remains the same. The stated media conglomerates are run by the Michael Eisners of the world, the Sumner Redstones, the Dennis Dammermans, the Gerald Levins, the Edgar Bronfman, Jrs., the Peter Chernins, and so on. (5)

Since the same Jewish individuals who run the media outlets also control the Voter News Service (ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, Fox and The Associated Press), we can surmise that elections in America are literally run by a handful of Jews.

Do you suppose these Jews are capable of or willing to report Middle Eastern news without constantly portraying Israel as being in the right and Arabs in the wrong? I don’t think so.

Do you suppose Jewish media moguls would be interested in conducting fair elections in America if it meant giving up land or power in Israel? I don’t think so.

Regarding fairness and honesty, the US news media falls short in that area. Again, the news media is a Jewish run collection of media conglomerates. Contrary to politically correct thinking, continual lying and treacherous behavior among Jews is not a bigoted stereotype. It is encouraged through the annual recitation of an ancient Jewish prayer, the Kol Nidre, which frees Jews from fulfilling vows taken throughout the ensuing year. The Kol Nidre is widely known among Jews because it is recited—sung to a melody—on the eve of Yom Kippur. Typically the song is sung as part of the temple’s service and Jews respond by making the following declaration which is written in the Talmud book of Nedarim:

(Talmud, Nedarim, 23a)

The Kol Nidre is good for a year. Therefore it must be restated annually on the eve of Yom Kippur. Apologists for the Kol Nidre abound. The popular explanation is that it applies only to vows made to God. The rationale is that in the Middle Ages, Jews were forced to take Christian vows. The Kol Nidre was intended—we are told—to give oppressed Jews a way of voiding such vows made to God under duress. This explanation sounds good, but it does not match the Talmud’s rationale. The following is a full description of the Kol Nidre prayer as written in the Talmud book of Nedarim:

---quote on---

---quote off---

(Talmud, Nedarim, 23a)

Clearly, the practice of breaking vows is intended for vows made to humans, not to God. The Talmud specifically states that "He who desires his friend to eat with him, and after urging him, imposes a vow upon him, it is ‘a vow of incitement’ and hence invalid." In other words, if two businessmen have lunch together—one is a Jew, one is a Christian—and the Christian gets the Jew to agree to a specific business deal (which is a vow), then the Jew is not bound to honor the terms of the business deal because it is a "vow of incitement" and therefore invalid. This explains why Jewish leaders in Israel rarely honor the terms of Arab-Israeli peace treaties, cease-fire truces, or border agreements.

Do you suppose we can trust the Kol Nidre crowd to properly count votes electronically using the media’s Voter News Service (VNS)? I don’t think so.

(Note: For Gentile readers interested in hearing the Kol Nidre’s melody, go to a video store and rent "The Jazz Singer" starring Al Jolson. In the movie, Jolson gave a stirring rendition of Mammy and the Kol Nidre.)

A second event pointing to a rigged election was the conduct of Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura (Independent) and the media after Ventura and Republican Senator Trent Lott were reportedly booed during a memorial service for Paul Wellstone in Minnesota.

Governor Ventura was reportedly outraged at the so-called bad manners of the Democrats.

Ventura’s outrage is difficult to understand. Frankly, it seemed a bit contrived and childish.

Christian ethic leans toward giving people the benefit of the doubt when they are grieving over the sudden death of a loved one. This is a general rule of conduct among most civilized people, not just Republicans and Democrats. If Ventura and Lott were treated badly by a small group of booing Democrats (and by all accounts, only a few people booed, not everyone in the hall), then Ventura and Lott should have simply ignored it.

Ventura was so upset that he appointed an independent lame-duck senator to serve out the remaining months of Wellstone’s term. In addition, Ventura gave a mean-spirited speech when he named Dean Barkley as interim senator Monday, leaving the Senate split 49-49 with two independents. (6)

The entire episode seems contrived on Ventura’s part because Wellstone had just been killed and people were understandably emotional.

Professional politicians like Ventura and Lott do not react with hissy fits every time a few people boo them. If they did, they would soon be in straight jackets. Being booed occasionally is just part of the business of politics, it’s part of the landscape for Democrats and Republicans alike.

Are we to believe that professional politicians like Jesse Ventura and Trent Lott are that thin-skinned? I don’t think so.

Does anyone really believe that Ventura, an ex-Navy SEAL and former professional wrestler, is going to get his feelings hurt over such a trivial incident following the tragic death of a beloved politician? I don’t think so.

Ventura was obviously faking his outrage, something he must have done many times as a professional wrestler.

A third event pointing to a rigged election is the media’s inaccurate description of the election as a "sweeping" Bush victory, a mandate, even comparing Bush to Eisenhower.

This is a misrepresentation of facts by the media. I noticed, however, that TV and radio coverage avoided giving specific numbers of seats gained. They just reported a "big win" for the Republicans, Bush, Homeland Security, and the ensuing war in Iraq.

The last time I checked, Republicans will hold at least 51 of the 100 Senate seats, and 227 of the House's 435 chairs, but returns are still coming in (so we are told).

The Republicans did not "win" the House because they already had control of it. They merely picked up a few additional seats. Had Wellstone not been killed, the Senate likely would be split 50-50.

Does anyone really believe that 51 Senate seats and 227 House seats is a sweeping victory or a public mandate for Bush’s agenda? I don’t think so.

The so-called sweeping Republican victory is another media hoax.

If Tuesday’s election was in fact rigged, then the planners apparently decided not to give Republicans a genuine sweeping victory (by the number of seats won, that is). Like the 2000 Presidential election, Tuesday’s vote was almost a tie, but the Republicans squeaked by. Once the numbers were officially rallied, the "sweeping victory" aspect was added by Jewish propagandists within the news media.

No wonder the TV and radio news coverage avoids discussing numbers.

A fourth event pointing to a rigged election is continual whining and criticizing of Walter Mondale as a last minute substitute for Wellstone. Mondale was roundly belittled by talking heads, radio announcers, talk show hosts, and other media loudmouths. Such criticisms are not only in bad taste, they are just plain stupid. Who would criticize someone for entering a race when the candidate had just died in a plane crash? NO ONE! Not even an idiot would voice such a complaint. This is more contrived nonsense reported by the "Jews" media.

A fifth event pointing to a rigged election is complete lack of Democratic leadership from former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle and House Minority Leader Richard Gephardt. These men are not stupid, yet they knowingly led their party to defeat without attempting to fight the opposing party.

Does anyone really believe Gephardt and Daschle are so simple-minded that they could not see Bush as an extremely weak candidate on virtually all fronts—the economy, the war against Iraq, tax cuts, IQ points, you name it? Are Gephardt and Daschle complete fools? I don’t think so.

Again, it’s odd that the outcomes of two Bush campaigns were almost stalemates. What are the statistical chances of that happening in a country as large as the United States?

The 2002 election is another part of an ongoing effort to start a war with Iraq to secure more holy land for Israel.

Did the events listed here happen by mere coincidence?

I don’t think so. ª
