  • Karl Rove-Nazi Offspring

  • Audio is out of sync.

  • Greg palast is a tireless promoter of democracy.

  • You know what is mind boggling is how this country, my country, prides itself on being self-conscious, morally good, and ethical along with all other "Amer. attributes"

    And most of this knowledge is publicly known to, at least mentioned on various mass media outlets. (not just to the educated)

    But yet the people (present company included) take this hypocrisy super-sized, with a smile. AND we still claim the moral high ground.

    I hope this "CHANGE" theme is not a catch phrase

  • Big businesses want small government, so this is what we get from small government. Actually, I don't care big or small government as long as I am also in it, I have my saying, and I can ask for evidences for any bill they are going to pass in there. We should also get back all those supreme court assigned requiring our official scanning every six months. Our individual opinions collections will be posted to local States Offices. Both anonymously and not.

  • @beancube2008 Big businesses want small government? I really hope that you have learned a thing or two in the last 2 years since you posted that nonsense.

  • it has been the founding fathers when they sold out to the British

    in 1812 when Americans dared to stop paying their tribute to the KING

    the Canadians marched full strength on Washington and burnt congress and the town to the ground. upon retreating to the Canada.American forces followed and were destroyed at the border.

    they sent a full force once more and were destroyed at the border again

    that was the end of resistance in America

    towards the British / Canadians

  • One thing is for sure, if you are voting either Republican or Democrat, you are an idiot. When will you ever learn that you never vote for any party that has continually ruined the country with every decision they make.

    We are 10+ trillion in debt, soon to be 12 Trillion with over 60 trillion in future obligations. These two parties have been doing just that, partying, but on mine and your dime.

    Vote dem or repub?? No thank you, my chances seem better somewhere else.

  • democracy at its best

  • Land of the free - it's laughable isn't it

  • Riots are long over due Americans are fast becoming the laughing stock or the free world.

    Canadians look south with a snicker the British are laughing heck everyone is laughing at Americans today.

    the Democrats and Republicans have looted raped and gutted America for 40 tears or more.

    there is no democratic election process in America. you are all living in a fantasy world.

    increasingly I hear other free people say Americans are farmers who are the dumbest beasts of burden on the planet.

  • Funny how the people that helped build America had balls to die and kill those who opposed freedom. People today, Americans today have no balls. Yes we're being laughed at for not only being sheep, ignorant and cowards, but most of all being easily influenced by media and the very same politicians that have run this country straight to hell. Wonder how long before everyone in this country grows a pair?

  • @dave777blaster ATrue, and also: the American media is the laughingstock of the international press/community. To most everyone, much of the American mainstream media is a propaganda arm of the US ruling class. Obvious to most people EXCEPT the American masses.

  • @Paolo7219 hey to each their own time of accepting the truth . At first it is a slap in the face then it enrages you and the final step is accepting the truth.

    everyone has a different learning curve.

    many Americans are now awake it is the dumbest half of Americans that need to wake up.

  • How many illegal aliens, how many citizens would and could vote more than once without proving who they are?

    The argument that not having a proper ID would keep people from voting is absurd. If you aren't responsible enough to get the proper ID when you know months in advance when you register to vote that you will need it to vote. Then you aren't responsible enough to be voting in the first place.

  • this is crazy let everyone know

  • Another excellent piece by Mr. Palast. "Armed Madhouse" goes alot more in depth regarding these practices. Thanks for uploading.

  • This is very real. I worked the polls in my county for the primaries in a low income community and several people that came in that had lived in the community for years were not on the list and had to fill out a provisional ballot

  • In Australia we have to vote or we get fined.

  • thats very stupid

  • Better to have a population committed to the vote than the system in the US that leads to apathy and the sick farce of the last 8 years.

  • I wish it was like that in Canada, our last election has 59 percent turnout

  • That's not a bad idea

  • i live in detroit, this seriously made me want to cry for that poor family.

    vote obama 08 and god bless america

  • there will be riots

  • There should be riots but not over obama not winning.

    Watch these videos to see why.

    Spread the word.

  • I hope so. Hopefully that'll show the world we're not all talk and actually have balls.

  • We have to diseminate this videos among as many americans as we can; we can't let them do this all over again. This trickery has become a habit with the republicans, and if we take it, tghey will do it forever. The reason for them stealing the elections is because we americans let them do it; if more people know what is going on, they can't fool us and we can fight them by not being ignorant and fight for our consittutional rights.

  • I was so impressed that this made it onto television. Only Newsnight would screen this.

  • thats because its BBC, BRITISH broadcasting company

    not fox, msnbc or cnn

  • Free we are..

    so they say..

    BUT only if we do it

    their Way

  • I had a feeling that Karl Rove was behind all of this. What an asshole. I never liked the guy, NEVER.

  • There is no Democracy, its just an illusion to keep the masses happy. Dictatorships for everyone

  • I have to vote via an absentee ballot (by mail) this year. Hmmmm... Will my vote be counted? Or could it get (ooops) lost in the mail? If they deny people the right to vote, how convenient would it be to lose a few thousand votes by mail?

    What happened to the USA the country of my birth, the Democracy so many people sacrificed and died for, the Greatest Country in the World? I am ashamed of what our "leaders" have done to this once-great country!

    Peace~

    Raine

  • Denying citizens their vote is sick, the US is the only "democracy" I've heard of that denies citizens their right to vote because they are in debt, have moved, or any other cheap excuse to refuse the right to vote. Might as well drop the pretense and admit to fascism, why don't we change the Declaration of Independence? it should read: that SOME men are created equal

  • needs more views

  • My fellow prisoners (synonomous with citizens): McCain is trying to incite a class and civil race war. He will get it if they steal this election. A very old bitter man and a phoney vindictive woman for Pres. and V.P.? Fat chance in hell that they could get elected, in any country, without obvious fraud. We've had 8 years of "selection" instead of election. Enough!

  • In Miami County, with 100% of the precincts reporting at 9am EST Wednesday, Nov. 3, Bush had 20,807 votes (65.80%) & Kerry had 10,724 (33.92%). Miami reported 31,620 voters. Inexplicably, nearly 19,000 new ballots were added after all precincts reported, boosting Bush's vote to 33,039 (65.77%) to Kerry's 17,039 (33.92%). CASE is investigating why the % of the vote stayed Exactly the same to three one-hundredths of a percentage point after nearly 19,000 new ballots were added. Free Press

  • Is anyone else having trouble viewing Part 2?

  • Karl is slick. He knows many poor blacks don't drive. Now he knows they won't be able to vote.

  • You don't have to drive to have an ID. You just need some place of residence.

  • ...and money to pay for the ID.

  • So the next occupant of the White House "won't be chosen by counting the vote, but by blocking the voters."

    That's actually pretty scary for a country that cries "democracy" every time it goes into action.

    Another great bit of investigative journalism from Palast.

  • I heard that, I am so scared of whats happened to my country. But I'm even more afraid of whats in store. If these corrupt bastards can do this in the land of the free they can (and probably do) do it ANYWHERE.

  • "If these corrupt bastards can do this in the land of the free they can (and probably do) do it ANYWHERE."

    You bet your ass that the U.S. screws with foreign elections. They've been doing it since the end of WW2. Primary culprit? The CIA. Government overthrows, shady elections are par for the course when multi-national business interests are at stake. Read William Blum's 'Killing Hope: US Military and CIA Interventions Since WW2' (Common Courage Press 2004) for details.
