What is more undemocratic, more un-American than trying to
steal an election? For a moment, forget about Citizens United and negative
political ads and the truckloads of money spent on presidential campaigns.
These are all serious issues, but even these pale in comparison when measured
against outright theft, or the attempted theft, of an election.
I’ve known about the problems inherent in electronic voting
machines for years, but after reading Anonymous, Karl Rove and 2012 Election Fix? by Thom Hartmann and Sam Sacks at Truthout,
I’m convinced that someone in the federal government should be investigating
the activities of Karl Rove and his minions and their connections to SMARTech.
The evidence against Rove is circumstantial at this point,
but very compelling and warrants deeper investigation. We Americans send poll
watchers to various countries around the world to help verify the legitimacy of
their elections, while our own results are highly suspect. There are a lot of
things related to U.S. political campaigns that should elicit outrage, but none
more so than the attempted theft of an election. We can’t allow this to happen.
