In reply to the discussion: What do you fear the most in the next election? [View all]You consider THIS a Personal Attack?
"Your lengthy response does NOT address the concern expressed in my post.
The problem cited was about Election Transparency, Accountability, and Verification.
Your response is about Voter Rights and Access.
While that IS a very important issue,
it is not pertinent to our discussion.
If our elections can be easily and secretly stolen AFTER the votes are cast with NO Public oversight or verification,
it really doesn't make any difference how many people get to the polls. "

My post is a spot on analysis of the substance of your response,
and contained nothing personal about you.
No derogatory personal adjectives or insults.
No amateur and amateurish psychological evaluations.
The focus was purely about the substance (or lack of) of your response.
Compare my response to these gems:
"You look to be developing a persecution complex."
"To be so defensive and accusatory,"
"your self-serving nonsense "
"'diverted from your brief and, mostly apathetic post."
"let you walk all over me with your ridiculous characterization of my post"
"To be so defensive and accusatory,"
"your self-serving nonsense "
"'diverted from your brief and, mostly apathetic post."
"let you walk all over me with your ridiculous characterization of my post"
Can you spot the difference?
...but the best chuckle is here:

69. you're not that important to me..
69. you're not that important to me..
...and yet, here you are AGAIN.
My, my.....
Hint: People spend time of what they feel is important.
...but enough of this diversionary Hi-Jack.
Do you have any insight, enlightenment, or substance oriented commentary that has a direct relationship to any claims, opinions, or documentation contained in my original post?

60. If "Stealing the Election" is such a high priority among the voters here,
.....I wonder WHY the Democratic Party Leadership isn't at all concerned?
I would think that after the clearly stolen election of 2000,
and the "questionable" election in 2004
that the Dem Party leadership would have made Transparent, Verifiable voting a #1 Red Hot Priority
while they held the White House, The Senate, and a big majority in The House.
92% of the American people support Transparent, verifiable Elections
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=203x446445
...so that looks like an easy WIN/WIN for the Democratic Party.
Bu instead, we get only SILENCE from the Party Leadership on this most important issue,
and even MORE unverifiable "Private" "Secret" Black Box Voting Machines.
One has to look WAY out to the Left Wing Hoo-Hoo Fringe to find a Democrat willing to even talk about Election Security.
Venezuela has more secure, transparent, verifiable elections than we have in the USA.
Why?
You will know them by their WORKS,
not by their excuses.

Incompetence. They are just politicians after all. Not exactly the sharpest pencils in the box.
