A MUST SEE

I appreciate a good debate, so....

On the felon purge issue:
Yes, actual ex-felons in the the state of Florida were legally purged from the voter rolls, but the data base company hired to purge voters (DBT, which is now Choicepoint Inc.)used very loose parameters in denying people to vote. For example, a minister in Florida was informed that he couldn't vote because he shared a name with an actual felon. His name is Willie J.Whiting. Every Willie, Will, William, etc. Whiting was on that DBT list as a possible "suspect", subject to purging. Those on that list, erroneously, lost their constitutional right to vote. Most of them are black, 80-85% of blacks in Fla. vote Democratic. The first database hired for purging was paid about $40,000 for the job. Something then happened, I don't know what, So DBT was hired, without any competetion for the bid, and was paid $4 MILLION dollars to do the same purge work as the first company. This is an outrageous sum for simple purge work. Several civil rights groups have sued and won suits against DBT for their incredibly inept or deliberatly false findings.

'Handful of rich guys'

Until we have true campaign finance reform in this country, candidates(in both parties)will accept large sums of money from big businesses in exchange for political favors. Those capable of raising the largest campaign budget are not the best qualified to run this country, or are they?

Katherine Harris was the head of the campaign to re-elect George Bush in Florida. She also had the power, as Secretary of State, to deny a statewide recount of all ballots that the machines failed to read initially.


So what? How is that relevant? Don't you know that this is common all over the country? Democrats do the same thing but this does not mean anything in the final analysis. Harris followed the law to the letter. The same thing could not be said of the Florida Supreme Court. A court by the way of left-wing activist judges who did everything they could to destroy the law.
