    I did read the article, even though it was just another rehashed BBC cable reposted by several suspiciously pro US sources without a single change, almost like they’re trying to launder it. It also doesn’t mention that Gonzalez refused to cooperate with the investigation because he’s not actually interested in the results, he’s interested in a media circus that could lend credence to a color revolution, this is NED 101 shit and everyone even mildly interested in Latin American history knows the playbook front to back.

    Allegations aren’t the same as proof, unfortunately, and the word of the US and the journalists it funds ain’t good enough to wipe your ass with. The NYT and all them rags haven’t seen a US casus belli they didn’t corroborate even if history shows all of them to be fraudulent.

    This one isn’t different. It’s easy finding journalists to claim fraud when you’re paying their salary and it’s easy to find ballots when you can fabricate them knowing libs think everyone is guilty until proven innocent if Uncle Sam says so.

    You’ll notice that article doesn’t just wave in the direction of nebulous claims and inscrutable databases that they know you can’t be fucking bothered to scrutinize (I don’t think you even read the entire article to begin with) but actually has clear examples, provides ample background and doesn’t just take claims at face value.
