Republicans Resort to Cyberterrorism

Republicans Resort to Cyberterrorism

It’s interesting that Republicans say they believe in free speech, but they really don’t want the truth to be known. President Bush continues to distort the things that John Kerry has been saying during the entire election. But it isn’t just President Bush, it’s Dick Cheney, Condolesa Rice, Donald Rumsfeld as well. But, it isn’t just the administration. The Republican bloggers continue to tell people they disagree with to shut-up or worse. Many of these bloggers sign their comments with crude language, even though they claim to be part of the Religious Right. But once again it isn’t just the bloggers. Several very informative web sites have been getting hate mail mainly from Republicans. One web site Electoral Vote Predictor 2004 http://www.electoral-vote.com/ not only got hate mail from Republicans, they were attacked by hackers. They were not attacked only once, but many times over the last several days. This web site does have a Kerry/Democrat leaning commentary, but it also presents the facts from polling services and it shows who is in the lead.

I don’t understand what the point of bringing the system down is. Perhaps, because Kerry was ahead in the electoral college count for the last few days they didn’t want the truth to be known. But, the point is that it doesn’t matter who is ahead in the polls now, it matters on November 2, 2004. I wonder if factcheck.org gets the same hate mail from Republicans that don’t want people to know the truth about George W Bush and Dick Cheney.
