The significance is that he is a six-term Republican Congressman FROM OHIO, a State which "voted" for Bush by a hairline majority over Kerry in 2004. Ney spent months making explicit denials of being corrupt, and only pled guilty in the face of documents put together in the Jack Abramoff prosecution. Ney was known as the "Mayor of Capitol Hill" and was personally involved in the Ohio Voting process during the extremely close election. He assured us at that time, before the votes were even counted, that Bush won. Some of us thought it a bit odd at the time....keylawkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04134596750620373075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882454.post-1134510138762755262005-12-13T13:42:00.000-08:002005-12-13T13:42:00.000-08:00Scientific American 12/2004 62 cites work of Alvar...Scientific American 12/2004 62 cites work of Alvarez of CalTech and Selker of MIT, who set up teams of computer and poli sci experts to document the "vote" concerns arising out of the 2000 US Presidential election. They examined a galaxy of registration, ballot, and purging (such as done by former Justice Renquist), issues in 42 States. Interestingly, A and S estimate that FOUR TO SIX MILLION VOTES were "lost". I don't think so. There is no such thing as "Oops, I won the Presidential Election". These millions of votes were stolen -- they were "disappeared".keylawkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04134596750620373075noreply@blogger.com
