All Republicans after Eisenhower took White House by fraud or treason-why wouldn't they try in 2012? [View all]
Thom Hartmann and Sam Sacks:
"A presidential candidate committing treason? That would never happen, and, if it did, it would be front-page news. Everybody would know about it, right?"
Wrong.
Consider some simple history.
<...>
So, here we have all the Republican administrations of the last half of the 20th and early 21st centuries. Nixon, Reagan/Bush, and Bush. And every one of them took the White House by fraud and/or treason, to quote President Lyndon Johnson.
And now there are questions about Karl Rove trying to electronically rig the election of 2012 in three states. And Democrats and very rational liberals are saying, There couldnt be a conspiracy there. Everybody would know about it! The press would report on it! Theres no way they could get away with it! Youre being a conspiracy nut!
Well, just look at the Republican history of the past fifty years.
