Was the 2004 Election Stolen?

jZnat writes, "In June Rolling Stone ran an article by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. delving into the statistical improbability that Bush won the 2004 election based on massive amounts of evidence that support a Republican-sponsored election fraud across the country, particularly in Ohio. The GOP used a number of tactics in its fraudulent campaign including ballot-stuffing, denying newly registered voters (particularly in urban and minority precincts) their voting privileges via illegal mailings known as caging lists, inane voter registration requirements, preventing thousands of voters from receiving provisional ballots, under-providing Democrat-majority precincts with voting machines thus creating enormous queues of voters, faulty machines (particularly from Diebold) that skewed results in the GOP's favor, mostly unnoticed ballot-stuffing and fraud in rural areas, and a fixed recount that was paid for by the Green and Libertarian parties that essentially supported the initial fraudulent numbers." From the article: "'Ohio was as dirty an election as America has ever seen,' Lou Harris, the father of modern political polling, told me."

    It's a left-leaning site. I have NEVER seen a right-leaning article approved here. Ever.

    I think the reason for that should be pretty self-evident. Just look at the left's policies from the perspective of the average Slashdot geek:
    Welfare: Because working takes time away from completing my tier 17 class set
    No war: Because I can only hit stuff in Counterstrike
    No warrant-less surveillance: Because not everyone in my private collection is 18
    Anti-trust legislation: Because Microsoft needs to die
    Abortion: Because if I ever manage to find a girl that'll sleep with me, I sure don't want to have to worry about multiplication errors
    Gay marriage: Because I'll probably never find that girl anyway

    Need I go on?
