3. Palast is not always helpful with some of his "conclusions"
I received his newsletter today (something that I did not sign up for) which included the essay that is the focus of this thread. Here is my reply to Greg: (I also tried to send it to RAINBOW/PUSH, but their "contact us" email address isn't working.)

Dear Greg,

If you think " ... the last quarrel over who really won the presidential election ..." is over, you're not paying attention. There are dozens of groups still working to expose and uncover the election theft and the numbers of Americans who believe the election was stolen has increased 50% in the past six weeks. We will continue to work, despite your "stop quarreling" columns. If you don't think so, just hide and watch.

First you write a column ("OAF of Office") in which you insult the intelligence of the "majority" of Americans for voting for Bush (when they most assuredly did not), and now you write this. It's increasingly unclear to me just which side you are on. Please remove me from your mailing list.

Thank you. (me)

Here is a related thread on Greg's "OAF of Office" essay that contains some of my criticisms (and others) about some of Greg's conclusions. We hurt ourselves if we "conclude" that the efforts to overthrow this election theft are over and if we insult the majority of Americans for their choices, particularly when their choices were ignored by the criminal cartel now in charge of this country. Peace.
