   Seriously, how hard can it be to make a working voting machine?

   Yet more fear mongering by the left. Honest elections scare the shit out of them.

   Re:

   Seriously though, in today's world we have so many complex machines doing unbelievable, mission-critical calculations, and you're telling me that these people at Diebold can't write a do-nothing program that increments a simply counter for each respective candidate? Come on, there's definitely some under the covers fishiness going on here...

   Re: Re: So, who's counting?

   As Joe Stalin was reported to have said, I don't have any issues with the masses voting, as long I control the tally (or words to that effect). Hmmmmmm.

   Obama should have a asterisk after his name. Elected by Diebold computer.

    I'm at a loss to see how anyone can claim this is either a left or a right issue. Considering "the left" won the last election, how is this "fear mongering by the left"?
    
    It seems like a pretty clear problem for anyone who actually likes real democracy.

    Re:

    You can be ashamed. I love my country and find myself only ashamed of what some of it's citizens do. You sir, fall into that category. Besides, missing votes only matter when someone on the left thinks it may be used against the right.

    Re: Re: Re: Re:

    Because a lot of us are not influenced by the media. I understand that Bush isn't a great president. That said, he was not, by far, the worst president in the last 50 years. I can name 3 that were worse. Nixon, Johnson and Carter.

    um

    Isn't congress allowed to shut down a company when they're dealing in an area that's so extremely important while at the same time constantly fucking up and lying? Or are we about to be left with no other recourse than vigilante justice?

    Re: Re: Re: Re: Re:

    Well, none of those three were responsible for killing almost 3,000 innocent Americans on our own soil and then covering it up. In the dust from ground zero in NYC there have been found traces of thermite, a highly explosive powder capable of cutting through a steel beam in less than a second. The collapse of the buildings had many characteristics of controlled demolition, and no skyscraper of that kind either before or after that day has ever collapsed due to heat damage (the supposed cause). Not to mention that the CIA eventually admitted to sending out the anthrax in the mail that happened a month later.

    particular conditions

    My doctor hasn't seen a botfly larva burrowing into someone's skull to eat their brains, but he darn well better be able to take care of "this particular condition."

    Nice to see people keeping their conspiracy theories alive and well, despite reality or how ridiculous it makes them look.

    Not theory. Fact. Based on declassified CIA documents and other inside resources. www.fromthewilderness.com has articles with all kinds of infrmation about this and other stuff that's been going on. And all the articles have links to OFFICIAL SOURCES documenting everything they claim. They predicted years ago the exact situation we're in now, with the economy and housing and everything. And they were the ones responsible for bringing the truth of Pat Tillman's death by friendly fire to light despite the Dept. of Defenses's cover story. This is what caused Rumsfeld and other officials to resign, pressure from this very group and its findings.
