'Bush' spam does not stop

  • Post a comment
The latest hoax e-mail purporting to come from George W. Bush has the president admitting to a series of election frauds. It follows previous spam that claimed to come from Bush and had him offering a litany of reasons why he shouldn't be re-elected.

At the heart of the latest hoax e-mail campaign is the suggestion that the counting and e-voting processes put in place were geared toward guaranteeing a Bush victory.

The spam e-mail is addressed from "George W Bush," but it is unlikely to convince anybody that it really comes endorsed by the president--especially once it begins raising questions about the validity of his victory.

The e-mail begins: "The first thing I did to steal your election was to make friends with ALL the manufacturers and code-verifiers of the electronic voting machines. They were really nice, especially Diebold who gave me $600,000 for my campaign."
