The gun smoketh

Well, well, well.

The Alberto Gonzales affair is yielding interesting fruit. In the course of searching for the five million e-mails that the Bush White House “accidentally” deleted, an extremely pertinent fact has surfaced.

The Ohio Secretary of State Web site which reported vote tallies in 2004 was hosted by a server (that is, a computer) in Chattanooga owned and operated by Bush partisans. Furthermore, the software used to tally the votes was created by a Bush partisan and the tallying was done by a private company owned by … a Bush partisan.

SMARTech Corp. of Chattanooga hosts scores of Republican Web sites, including georgewbush.com, gop.com and rnc.org.

Now, these facts don’t prove fraud in and of themselves. But you have to wonder what other reason there would be for the Ohio state government to farm out vote tabulation and report it from a computer in the basement of a bank building in Chattanooga. When you add to it the mysterious 90 minute delay in vote tabulation which occurred late on election night (during which Bush suddenly moved ahead) and the numerous counties where more votes were reported than there were registered voters—not to mention the fascinating county where hundreds of voters approved gay marriage AND voted for Bush (right) …

Bush stole the election. It is now only a matter of a little more digging into that Chattanooga hard drive and examining the Ohio ballots that Ohio’s former Secretary of State tried so hard to have destroyed. (The judge who blocked that one is a national hero.) Congress, are you listening?
