Foreign Observers criticize US elections

Foreign Observers can criticize US elections all the want but I doubt many in the US will care. I also doubt those obserbers care, showing up 2 weeks before the election to recommend changes? Yeah that sounds like a good plan to me. Sounds like some people around the world need attention and have nothing better to do.
Foreign observers might provide some assurance to the rest of the world that the US has not gone completely bonkers in our elections. I bet that the Foreign Observers really don't care what people in the US think.
 
Considering that last I heard some people's votes are still going to be "counted" by Diebold machines, even though it's been proven already that they have been programmed to allow electoral fraud, I think anyone who values democracy in the USA should be taking any help they can get.

To put it in terms relevant to this board, it seems highly likely at this point that your election protocol has holes you can drive a truck through. By design.

What would you think about a psychic who wanted to be tested under conditions that allow fraud? Your current administration wants the election to be held under conditions that permit fraud. Join the dots.

Do the words "loyalty oath" mean anything to you?
Yup. What current bad practices of such an oath do you cite?


How about "protest area"?
Does Secret Service protection of POTUS change depending on the party in power? It changes alright as the world gets more & more dangerous, but I don't think it reflects Dems or Reps per se.

If you don't sign a loyalty oath, you don't get into any speech, etc. Bush is not the freaking king, you know.

Apparently it does. Apparently, the GOP stands for "Generally Obfuscated by Potemkins". Do they have to protect Bush from hearing negative things like "protect our civil liberties"?

That's a new one to me. Who does one agree to be loyal to? The USA? Constitution? Applicable Law? Bush himself?

Do you have a source with an example?

I suggest the distance factor is aimed at acts rather than words, and suggest that Kerry if elected will receive the same standards of protection.

Have you rational reasons to think otherwise?
 
Watching all this lame apologia, one has to wonder what the apologetics think there is to hide.

To use the words of one of their own "well, if they aren't doing anything wrong ..."

Does anyone have a link for these machines? I'd kind of like to read up on them.
