Summary

"In Fooled Again, renowned political commentator Mark Crispin Miller argues that it wasn't "moral values" that swung the 2004 presidential race, it was theft - and a harbinger of elections to come. While the greatest body of evidence comes from the key state of Ohio - where the Democratic staff of the House Judiciary Committee found an extraordinary amount of Republican-engineered vote suppression, election-day irregularities, old-fashioned intimidation tactics, and illegal counting procedures - similar practices (and occasionally worse ones) were applied throughout the country. A huge array of anomalies, improper procedures, and blatant violations of the law in state after state all, by a truly remarkable coincidence, happened to swing in the Bush ticket's favor. Though these were frequently reported in the local press, the national media, with their supposed "liberal bias," either ridiculed the idea that improprieties might have affected the results, or stayed silent." "This pattern - not one overwhelming fraud but thousands of little ones - is the new Republican electoral strategy. Fooled Again presents massive documentation that the election was stolen and describes the mind-set, among both the major parties and the media, that could permit it to happen. And Miller shows how the Republicans are preparing more of the same for 2006 and 2008"--Jacket.
