Bloggers rule...

Check this one out. The truth will always find its way to the daylight. No matter how hard those guys in the gov try to bury it.

"Gannon" scandal leads to link between high-level Republicans, high-level Democrats

I will quote a few paragraphs with comments:

"On Saturday, Feb. 12, a blogger, going by the screen-name "Do You Ever Wonder", posted the first of his discoveries as a thread on Democratic Underground.com."

Bloggers rule! I believe the blog phenomenon is starting to save the day and bring the real news to the people.

"The evidence shows that John Kerry had hired the Washington lobbying firm Quinn Gillespie & Associates to do work for his 2004 campaign.
The firm's two founding partners are each political heavy-hitters, Jack Quinn for the Democratic Party and Ed Gillespie as 2004 Republican National Committee chairman."

There you go! It is so interesting that in the biz those fellows are playing one team, while in politics they are in opposition, apparently. It is showing what these two parties really are: two fractions of the same party. So sake of appearances, I might add.

"From information gleaned from the firm's web site, it was learned that Marc Lampkin, a Quinn Gillespie lobbyist, was a Bush campaign
manager, while another employee of the firm, Bruce Andrews, was political director for the Kerry/Edwards coordinating committee in
Pennsylvania. Yet another employee, Manuel Ortiz, was involved in the overall leadership structure of the Democratic Party, including both policy and fundraising, raising money for Kerry."

How convenient this was for Bush and Kerry. Is this really democracy or a mockery? The same firm runs the election for both camps.

"A large, influential public relations firm such as this might normally have clients of all political persuasions, and were it not a
presidential election year, it would raise nary an eyebrow. However, for the chair of the Republican National Committee (even though
Gillespie officially took "unpaid leave" from his firm to work on Bush's 2004 campaign) to be just one degree removed from the Kerry
campaign, casts a shadow of suspicion regarding possible collusion between the Democratic and Republican parties. At the very least, it
represents an obvious conflict of interest."

Shall I suggest that it is just ONE party and the election show is just for the people to believe they live in democracy, while in actuality these two powers are in bed with each other.

Just my 2 cents.
