Chris Bowers, I appreciate the work and insight that went into your post. But you've missed the point. You write:
Election fraud is a big claim, and if you expected someone else to provide all of the answers for you, then your problem is entirely your own. What do you expect the ten of us to do?
Only this. Write and act as though you really understand what the rest of us already know: this sucker quacks like a duck. The Bush campaign broke the law by interfering with the right to vote of thousands upon thousands of Americans; whether in letter as well as in spirit remains to be determined. Why are you guys so intimidated, so nervously adamant about 'having to be shown', that you can't summon up enough gumption to condemn them, condemn them with all your might? Condemn them loudly, relentlessly, for the wrongs already known to have occurred?
What you're missing (since you ask) is that this is not the time for counseling your readers to 'grow up' or 'get over it', when implacable outrage is the only intelligent response to this national disaster that affects every aspect of our political, social and cultural future.
