Phone-Jamming Records Point to White House [good read]
WASHINGTON - Key figures in a phone-jamming scheme designed to keep New Hampshire Democrats from voting in 2002 had regular contact with the White House and Republican Party as the plan was unfolding, phone records introduced in criminal court show.

The records show that Bush campaign operative James Tobin, who recently was convicted in the case, made two dozen calls to the White House within a three-day period around Election Day 2002 — as the phone jamming operation was finalized, carried out and then abruptly shut down.

The national Republican Party, which paid millions in legal bills to defend Tobin, says the contacts involved routine election business and that it was "preposterous" to suggest the calls involved phone jamming.

Democrats plan to ask a federal judge Tuesday to order GOP and White House officials to answer questions about the phone jamming in a civil lawsuit alleging voter fraud.

2. cheating to win, yea right the party with values
Cheating is the only way the RepubliCONS can win and to think Rove was blabbing about how the Democrats cheat.
It's the same old, same old from the RepubliCON Cheating Thieves accuse others of what your doing. :eyes:

Why in the world people continue to support this RepubliCON party is beyond me.
