ANYbody can make ANY accusation.

Show me where I claimed that the republicans were guilty. I dare you. You can't do it because I never claimed that. Please take a reading comprehension class. I have said several times that Kennedy makes a powerful enough charge with enough evidence that warrants further investigation. But I will play along with your american justice system analogy because it further illustrates that you lack a basic understand of what this conversation is. This conversation is not a trial that intends to show republicans are guilty. This conversation is more like a grand jury that shows there is enough evidence to merit a trial. And since you know so much about the American legal system you already know that 1) the standard is lower for a grand jury (ie- it is not beyond a reasonable doubt) and 2) a defendant has the burden of rejoinder (ie- if you don't respond to the arguments you lose). But I guess that is why you are not a lawyer.

Further, I stated on several occasions that I believe this problem is bigger than Republicans and Democrats. Even if you don't believe Republicans did not and would not commit this fraud, you seem to think the perhaps Democrats would. Each of Kennedy's arguments is , at the very least, a potential way that someone could rig an election. If you want to ensure that Democrats don't cheat, it is in your best interest to stop name calling and start discussing solutions- that is completely separate from the question of the innocence of guilt of any particular party.

If we are going to discuss adult topics, let's do so like adults. Please look at what I am saying and if you want to discuss it I would be happy to. But I have no interest in hearing the name calling and off topic rants you continually resort to.
When the president talks to God
Do they drink near beer and go play golf
While they pick which countries to invade
Which Muslim souls still can be saved?
I guess god just calls a spade a spade
