Besides all the coin-gate / Ney stuff that has come out over the last year, here's another update with more Ohio vote fraud links to the Republican Party AND THE WHITE HOUSE!
Quote:Fake voting rights activists and groups linked to White House
December 30, 2005
Top level Republican operatives with ties to the White House, Senate Majority Leader William Frist and the Republican National Committee (RNC) not only engaged in the suppression of poor and minority voters in the 2004 Ohio presidential election' but they spun the election irregularities into a story linking blacks to cocaine and voter fraud. Bush allies in Ohio are now using this myth of voter fraud to pass a repressive "election reform" bill.
In the month prior to and immediately after the 2004 presidential election' the Republican Party engaged in an orchestrated campaign to divert the mainstream media focus away from election fraud and irregularities in Ohio and manufactured the myth of "voter fraud." ...
Cliff Arnebeck' the attorney representing the NAACP' denounces this as a deliberate racist disinformation campaign to divert attention from Ohio's election theft. "crack cocaine' the NAACP - Hearne and the Republicans are using racist code words'" Arnebeck said. The Wood County case was withdrawn in June 2005' but not before it was revealed that the plaintiff' Mark Rubick' had been "indemnified" and held "harmless" by an obscure group' the Free Enterprise Coalition' with ties to the Republican Party. Signing as the "Authorized representative" for the Coalition was one Alex Vogel.
Who is Alex Vogel?
This is the same Alex Vogel who is now identified as Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist's attorney. Vogel was busy in December explaining why Frist's so-called AIDs charity' World of Hope' Inc.' paid nearly a half million dollars in consulting fees to his "political inner circle'" according to the Washington Times. ...
While Vogel helped create the voter fraud myth and Hearne acted as the group's general counsel' a man named Jim Dyke acted as spokesperson for the dubious ACVR. Dyke served for many years as Republican National Committee Communications Director. In October' Dyke emerged as a White House spokesperson on National Public Radio pushing the ill-fated nomination of Harriet Miers for the Supreme Court.
Dyke and Hearne incorporated their "nonpartisan" tax exempt voting rights organization in Dallas' Texas only three business days prior to the Ney hearings in Ohio's capitol. Despite its lack of history' the ACVR was the only "voting rights group" called to testify on election irregularities in Ohio. With few exceptions, like Raw Story and Bradblog, news organizations have ignored these obvious political connections.
