Hello Kossacks:

Did you know that the Election Assistance Commission ("EAC") is the protocols arm of the Hate America Vote Act ("HAVA"), and that they are taking recommendations on how to implement HAVA's mandate that every state have centralized voter registration by January 1, 2006. Here's what the organization I belong to put together over the last month.

Please feel free to copy all or part of it and add your name and/or your affiliation's name to customize it, and then email it to the following email address before the deadline for input expires at 5:00 EDT on 5/25/06.

Hello CA Kossacks and Other Inquiring Minds:

Yesterday, 3/16/05, I went to our state capitol in Sacramento to attend the Senate confirmation hearing of Gov. Schwarzenegger's nominee Bruce McPherson who will likely be confirmed to replace our elected Secretary of State Kevin Shelley.

Our local DFA group had prepared questions for the senators to assist them in demanding baseline conditions of employment to replace an elected official: 1. Affirm VVPATs by 2006, 2. Retain VSPP staff and 3. Abstain of political partisanship.

The Orwellian nighmare foisted upon us by Buscho makes for exasperating discussions, to say the least. I went to dinner with friends last night, and though these friends were nearly as radicalized as am I, it was exhausting to preface so many words, concepts and phrases with the opposition's convoluted language.

Thomas Jefferson said, "An informed democracy behaves responsibly." Yet how can we inform our fellow citizens if we feel like we've got a cup peanut butter in our mouth everytime we try to make clear our ideas while untwisting all the double-speak, e.g. Yes, I am patriotic--I'm just not for the Patriot Act,

Here's a solution that I'd like my fellow Kossacks to vet:

It's a Sad Day

Democrats helped to oust their own champion of voters rights, despite showing no significant wrongdoing in his recent audit hearing.

California's Secretary of State Kevin Shelley has just resigned, due to lack of funds for his legal defense to ward off his reward for standing up for us--the "Ken Star" treatment where no less than FIVE government entities were looking for skeletons.

Now our friend of Enron, who seeks to redistrict California, gets his prize--the control to choose the key player California elections--the Secretary of State. [What's Next? See below the fold] Read More

"The core of our American democracy is the right to vote. . . . [W]e're encountering a pivotal moment in our democracy. . . ." --Kevin Shelley, CA Sec. of State

D-day is approaching for our heroic leader of the mandatory paper trails and de-certifier of Diebold, and if we Democrats were to get a grade on our support of this hero, it would be a D.

I know, I know, you're afraid that he might not be clean, and we're the clean party, it's true. But, we Democrats are quickly going the way of that dumb bird that used to start with a D, before it went extinct, and so we've got to get smart and strategic--right quick.

Hello Kossacks:

Did any of you catch the latest on the Free Press today? Rep. John Conyers just sent out two scathing letters that are aimed to make heads roll. It is a good day after all. . . .

First, you probably read that earlier this week Ohio's Attorney General Jim Petro posted a press release (see Ohio Attorney General Press Release re Sanctions ) stating his intent to sanction the attorneys who filed a lawsuit against the State of Ohio on the grounds that the Presidential election was not performed fairly. Uh--you remember--something about count every vote, no more suppression shenanigans and exit polls not adding up. [More below the fold] Read More

Heroic Act

I'll never forget it. I gasped and held my breath. . . . I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

I heard the man sitting behind me whisper, "Just an announcement and he's got two bodyguards!"

I looked up to the balcony of the auditorium. Was he right? I saw two men standing next to our California Secretary of State, Kevin Shelley, one dressed as a guard, but the other was wearing plain clothes.

Hello Everyone,

Once again I went to bed in a wistful glow--thinking that I could finally concentrate on my Buy-Blue Christmas shopping for my thoughtful and generous children who still believe in Santa Claus. Yes, I could finally rest that there will be good future for all of our children--the Election-Gate would finally break. I mean there's absolutely NO way this story can't get out now. . . .

Ah, the sweet sugar plum dreams--the truth shall set us free--the American free press is the envy of the world.
