GOP (?) Targets Milwaukee's African American Communities
(Cross-posted in case it is mysteriously deleted from the news & politics forum)
A Sierra Club member in Milwaukee, WI found and scanned this image and contributed it to the political weblog DailyKos.com. You can read more about it (including comments) here: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2004/10/28/201853/53

That Milwaukee Black Voters League Flyer is straight IGGGNANNT!!
In regards to W, he should feel like a fool. W and General Franks had a chance to catch Osama in the mountains of Tora Bora in early December 2001. Instead of hunting the man down, the job was "outsourced" to Afghan locals. Naturally, General Franks denies this in a book but reports speak overwise.
Also, on SEVERAL occasions W stated that was not interested in catching Osama!! Duuhhhh W!
The same day the recent Osama tapes aired, W repeated over and over how he was going to catch Osama, I'm like, can I please have a side of "WTF" with a tall glass of "Ni**a Please!"
I am baffled!!! What is up with republicans voting for this nonsense!! 
Can people not see that our country has been takin' for a ride by our own administration? 
Needless to say, I will be in line at 6:30am waiting to cast my vote for JK.

Lest people think it's an isolated incident, there are reports of something similar happening in South Carolina: http://www.boston.com/news/politics/...adbeat_voters/

Please tell me this is not for real
This is a letter that some are saying was distributed around Columbus, Ohio. 
Also, the phone lines were cut to a local office that was being used to call voters last night.
Is this really what we've come to. PLEASE somebody tell me that this is a cruel joke.

CONGRATS OBAMA!!!! http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmp...llinois_senate
They are saying Bush has won NC but they have not even counted the votes in Mecklenburg County (CHARLOTTE -- MY COUNTY) yet because folks are still in line yet to cast a vote. The rule is as long as folks were in line by 7:30 PM EST, they could vote.

Okayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
There were power outages here in the NO(up to 4 hours) and in Texas...that dayum rain!
I wish the commentators would SHUT UP until about 2 or 3 hours from now.  (I'll be asleep by then!)

I was trying to remain optimistic, but instead I feel sick. I think it's time I headed down to the US Embassy and turned in my passport in protest.

I'm so upset how Missouri turned out. I thought Clair McCaskil (D) won, but when I woke up Matt Blunt (R) had gained up on her and took the governor position. I really, really wanted her to win. But those smaller towns/cities in Missouri will vote a republican ticket quick.
I'm keeping my hopes high for Kerry, but it seems that Bush may have placed his butt back in the white house. I just have no faith in the Bush administration and living 4 more years under them might hurt. People really believe that he can protect us.
Please please Ohio, NH, and NM go to Kerry.

Last night I just gave up and went to bed. I woke up at 4ish and while I sipped on some Kool Aid, I saw electoral and it looked dismal for Kerry so I went back to bed. I just saw where it is VERY VERY CLOSE!!!! Come ON OHIO!!!
I cannot take 4 more years of Bush. I just can't.
