BBV: Great GBC interview on KIRO-AM this morning
I hope everyone heard DU's God_BushandCheney on KIRO-AM this morning. He did a great job of explaining why it is crucial that we clean up voting problems across the USA NOW, and why electronic voting isn't all it's cracked up to be.

Since I have been his toughest critic IRL ;-), I'm posting to say congratulations to Andy. He did a great job. Hopefully, he will log on later to discuss his comments.

1. Thanks Julie
:yourock:

I was in a Starbucks in D.C. after having just come from the GAO...I did 3 other interviews after that one.

Thanks for the Props.

Cheers
Andy

2. Good Job Andy...
I was glad that I could get on and discuss, even for a very short period, the problem with the software. I sent them a long email after I was off, explaining exactly what the problem is and why this state may be in real trouble.

Andy, check your "coppertop" email. We need help in the way of a statement from Dr. Thompson and we need it sooner rather than later.

6. These appearances are great but
Until Bev can have major news play from a 60 Minutes or Prime Time Live most Americans will have no idea just how rigged these machines are. Considering all of these networks are well aware of these machine and no one up to this point has done a piece on it, should pretty much tell us where they stand on this.

Hell even if Bev were to get air play from these shows we are about 1 month away from the election. I would say there is no way to have accountability for these machines by then.

This election will be rigged, the repukes are counting on it and the networks will have played a major part in allowing it to happen.

7. Sorry but I beg to differ.....
.....there's still 5 weeks left for good people to volunteer to act as poll watchers and help keep a close eye on who is accessing the machines and what they are doing while doing so. :)

Don't delay! Sign up today! :evilgrin:

11. If you wanted to extend it.....
the first thing that came to my warped mind was.....
"Don't let your vote be bought with anything less."
(Said tongue in cheek - of course)

9. you can have all the poll watchers in the world
without an official and reliable recount it would fall on deaf ears. The corporate media will make sure of that.
