President Skull vs Senator Bones

Well basically I'm so disgusted I can barely post... Listening on Radio 4 to the hoards in the Ukraine versus the "coverage" in the US -- even on Kos! -- I'm just at a loss.

Greens Shame Dems...

Here however is a good piece I found via http://www.votecobb.org (in notable contrast with http://www.johnkerry.com/ I must say). I don't agree with everything in the article perhaps but can't disagree with the main thrust.

I guess one of the pledges in the Skull and Bones is never to challenge an election result...

"The Confederacy has finally won," declared Dr. Michael Dawson, Harvard  Professor of Government and African American Studies. "Forget about  Red vs. Blue. The states that voted for  President Bush were the territories  and states which allowed slavery (with one or two small exceptions  at the border - Iowa and Maryland)." Indiana and Ohio are also "free  state" anomalies that don't match the pre-Civil  War map - but  the Green and Libertarian parties are set for a recount that  just might turn Ohio from Red to Blue, no thanks whatsoever to the  Democratic standard-dropper, John Kerry.

The Greens, who don't stand to win anything except the respect and  admiration of all decent people, raised nearly $150,000 in only four  days to challenge George Bush's unofficial 136,000 vote margin in each  of Ohio's poll precincts. Kerry had the same option and plenty of cash  on hand ($15 million in unspent campaign funds), but took the Skull  and Bones path, fearing a contested outcome might damage the legitimacy  of a system that he values just as dearly as his erstwhile opponent,  George Bush - Black voters be damned. There is no law against making  a concession speech and getting a recount, but oligarchs like  Kerry treasure stability above all else - it keeps them on top.

Sadly that about sums it up. The Greens raise $250K and where is Kerry? I know this has been addressed before but the point remains valid... John Kerry "reporting for duty" bah humbug. Skull or Bones, what's the difference when it comes to protecting voters' rights? Not much, it seems.
