Well, isn’t this rich? Tom Feeney — yes, that Tom Feeney, the one who is alleged to have commissioned vote-rigging software for touch-screen voting machines in 2000, as testified to by former Republican software programmer Clint Curtis in a sworn affidavit, sworn testimony to congress, and a successful polygraph test — went on Fox “News” this week to decry unsubstantiated charges of “voter fraud” by the low-income voter registration community organization ACORN.
(And if you’re done laughing…)
Feeney — the man who, as Speaker of the FL House in 2000, also promised to award all of the state’s electoral votes to George W. Bush no matter what the ballots and Supreme Court had to say about it — then went on to compare ACORN to the KKK…
I believe Acorn has violated more Americans’ civil rights to have their votes counted than any group since the KKK. It’s an outrage.
The hopelessly corrupt Feeney is in a desperate campaign to save his U.S. Congressional seat in FL’s 24th district, against a challenge from Democrat Suzanne Kosmas (who recently defeated Curtis in the primary, after he had changed parties, in part, in order to try and unseat his former-colleague, Feeney.)
Feeney has also been seen on TV, of late, in his district, ‘apologizing’ in an embarrassing campaign ad, for having gone on a trip to play golf in Scotland with (and paid for by) disgraced Republican uber-lobbyist, Jack Abramoff.
RAW STORY has more, including the video of the laughable Feeney appearance on Fox “News” this week.
BTW… The terrifying new documentary film, Murder, Spies & Voting Lies, detailing the Feeney/Curtis vote-rigging scandal, and The BRAD BLOG’s four year odyssey in reporting it, has now been released. It’s also screening on LinkTV, and can be purchased — signed by myself and filmmaker, Patty Sharaf — as a premium in support of The BRAD BLOG right here.
UPDATE 10/12/08: Whoops, forgot to mention that if Feeney were actually concerned about voter fraud in his home state, he’d call for immediate prosecution in this actual, documented, but still unprosecuted case of voter fraud in Florida!
Yup, I have family in that area that are republicans… but we their children have their sworn promise they won’t be voting repub this election for their grandchildren’s futures!
Funny6 how mainstream media latched on to ACORN but ignored the work you all did here for years before this election. I will mention this on my show Monday as well and I am sending it to Malloy.
Good work as always Brad and company!
Some day over the rainbow, Tom Feeney will be behind bars, that will be after Rove and other higher officials are prosecuted. Sarah Palin will be a disgraced hockey mom again by then, and Bush and his cabinet will be up on war crimes in an international court. Hannity, Limbaugh, Savage and other propagandists will also be jailed.
There’s no place like American, there’s no place like America, there’s no place like America.
What is that saying, “the pot calling the kettle black”…Getting this guy out of office is a step in the right direction…
I think that Move On should make a “Tom Feeney is crazy” ad with the true facts about ACORN blended in with Tom’s crazy rants. 🙂
…and an honorable mention of an actual voter fraud suspect who’s FBI boyfriend got it off the hook 😉
I can smell the horse-sh*t coming out of this guy’s mouth all the way from Washington state. What a dick!
I also saw that weasel of a (man?) Hans Von Vote-suppressor-in-chief-kovsky on Fox Noise spewing nonsense about Acorn and the sanctity of the voting process yada-yada. THAT friggin Karl Rovot needs to be in jail, along with Frank Coulter. Or Anne, or whatever his name is…
What is sad to me is that Clint Curtis has been trying to tell people about Feeney for what 8 years now and no one would listen. And what now that the DCCC and the Kosmas campaign have stepped up and said that it is all true everyone is listening. I live here in District 24 and I told everyone I know about the BradBlog to try to get them all to understand.
Mr. Curtis also tried to tell everyone about Ms. Kosmas’ voting record or lack thereof and no one listened to that either. Ms. Kosmas is another do nothing, go a long to get a long, another vote for Pelosi and a snob. She would make just as bad of a congress person as Feeney. But no one wants to hear that either.
I am a Democrat and I will not be voting for either Kosmas nor Feeney. I hope Kosmas looses and Curtis runs again! I may just choose other on my ballot and write in Clint Curtis. We need honesty and Intregity in this District and neither of the two choices reflect that. Although there is still Bhola who is from India and is one angry dude against women and american children. He is running as an Independent. He was a Democrat and changed parties because the Democrats did not like him.
I still say CLINT CURTIS FOR CONGRESS!!! We need people like him. I will not remove my Curtis for Congress bumper sticker until it falls off.
Thanks Brad for all your work on the Clint Curtis Info. I just hope that people wake up and smell the stinch before it is too lake for America and it’s people!
