Something was rotten in the state of Ohio.

No. Not least because I see a big difference between a Ba'athist election --state-sponsored and with only one party, etc. -- and having a MoveOn guy at the poll in Cleveland. MoveOn is neither the government not even allowed to coordinate with a political party.

But your equation of MoveOn with Saddam Hussein is, sadly, par for the course. We need a new Godwin's Law, I guess.

point is there will be machine involved in 2008, and across the country there will be mistake- I assume those mistakes were unintentional- the above was intentional. yes you should be bothered that the party of protecting the people does this- or maybe I made it up/
If you were to read what Hitchens wrote, you might have trouble glibly assuming it was all unintentional. Try reading it. And remember that he hated Kerry and voted for Bush.
