A Liar and a Thief

T-shirt artist, C. Drew, from Chicago says, "President-certified Bush has lied about why we went to war and stolen two elections." He is publishing a line of t-shirts repeating this claim. Mr. Drew will take his protest to Washington DC adding his voice to others who feel our voting systems need fixing. Drew says, "You can't prove in an open court of law that Bush won in Ohio or any other state that uses computer voting systems that do not have an audit trail. An audit trail is permanent proof of votes to prevent fraud just like a cash register printout provides proof of sales to prevent theft. No businessman would run their business without an audit trail. Yet, in Republican dominated state governments like Ohio and Florida, audit-less computer systems were bought from Republican owned companies. They were designed to permit easy fraud and without a paper trail to make proving fraud difficult. The vote can only be certified with a rubber stamp. We have no audit trail." This is a two edged sword, says Drew. "This also means that conclusive proof of a Bush win can not be proven in a court of law. That is why I feel so safe claiming Bush stole two elections." Drew points out, "International election standards were broken in Ohio, Florida and elsewhere during this election. Our leaders supported a new election in the Ukraine but in the land of the 'Brave and the Free,' too many people, in the media and in our two-party system, are silent (less than brave) on this debasement of our democracy." He says, "The exit-polls were right. The election was rigged. Bush lied about the war and stole two elections. Our democracy and rights are slipping away before our eyes. Wake up." Mr. Drew teaches a free workshop in screen printing art on t-shirts to Chicago area artists at the Uptown Multi-Cultural Art Center (UM-CAC). He is also UM-CAC's Executive Director and an out-spoken advocate for grass-roots art activity. "Community arts provide a voice for the people. A lot of people I know are very upset by our broken electoral system." Mr. Drew said. "I speak for them through my art." His t-shirt art can be viewed on UM-CAC's website at art-teez.org/cdrew. |
