1. You bet... and someone needs to answer for it, he says!
GRRR!!! Boy is he pissed... or so it seems.

Interesting about this report, however. I thought their example of tampering was interesting with the hacker pointing "her" PDA at the voting booth and injecting a trojan horse by remote. What's that gonna do? What I want to hear about are the tabulating processors... where the REAL damage is done. Not a word about that. Maybe it's in the report... I hope so.

3. this is about the 6th show he has done
I just wish he would emphasize that paperless voting has been around
for years and years.

Oh and that machine subtracted about 16,000 votes from Al Gore in
Florida in 2000.

I think the GOP fear being turned out, and now the machines worry them.

4. It's our fault it took him so long to be shocked.....
had we just told him all the e-voting machines were built by undocumented workers, he would have been all over this YEARS ago.

Silly us. :eyes:

7. Well you're close...

What got him stirred up was when he found out that a Venezuelan business was about to buy out one of the major e-voting machine businesses. I can't remember which one. But, nonetheless, only when he thought "furners" would have their hands in our election process did he get upset... not when "only Republicans" owned them. :puke:

6. We should all be e-blasting him, that it is about time.

He is shocked, well it is about time Lou. Surprise you couldn't get any of the company reps to come defend their products. Why don't you ask Wally O'Dell, former CEO of Diebold and Bush Pioneer, why did he say at an Ohio fundraiser that he will "deliver" Ohio to President Bush in 2004.

This is what we have been screaming about since the 2000 election Lou. "Verified Fucking Voting".

He came on board when he found out that Venezeula was buying a good portion of Sequoia voting machine interests. But it has been snowballing out of his controll now. Good.

10. Why is everybody jumping on Lou? I think that it's to his credit
and to the Country's benefit that he is publicizing the e-voting problem. It has been buried for years. Now today, there was a poll that showed 98% of American people who voting in the poll have good sense. I find that to be good news.
