13. Only one who has covered this stuff

Dobbs on CNN. The rest of them are bought off. And I don't much like Dobbs. Do you?

[MrsCorleone]

19. No, don't watch Dobbs.

He's a tool for the Right. He was/is successful for rallying the ignorant vote around one the few wedge issues the right wingers have left.

[Kitty Herder]

4. This shit pisses me off.

Especially the complicit media's silence about it.

I want my country back! We've lost our right to vote because our votes don't count.

[RC]

5. Everyone needs to see these videos

We need to go back to paper and pen. So what if is takes a week or more to count the ballots.

[uppityperson]

6. I'd much rather wait a week anyway, count them all. And recount them again

Be able to compare the numbers. Then release the info.

[RC]

11. Count what, how?

With machines like this, how are you going to know who voted for whom?

[BeFree]

12. You can't

They have us right where they want us.

Get ready to say hello to Pres. McCain.

Or......

[uppityperson]

14. If there is no paper trail, you can't. I am talking about with paper/pencil

Count them, recount them, get the numbers close, then release the numbers. I am agreeing with you. Go back to paper/pencil, and wait a wk for the results.

If there are paper trail e-machines, still don't release the numbers for a week until every vote is counted, twice, and the numbers are close enough to be released. This instant gratification, need to know now before polls close crap bugs the shit out of me. Used to be a week was fine, should be again.

And yes, should have paper trail voting.

[RC]

15. Sorry, there are so many people that think the machines can be fixed.

They don't realize the machines are already fixed the way the owners want them.:hi:

8. K&R

Where do we get off, telling the rest of the world about democracy and free and fair elections?

9. You said it!!!

[BeFree]

10. So it goes

Can you believe this?

I know it will depress some folks. Hell, it depressed me for a year, but the truth hurts, and then you move on.

These same type of machines were used to steal the 2004 election from Kerry.

These same type of machines were used to steal the 2004 election from Kerry.

And we are not mush further along to stopping these machines from stealing this election than we were in 2004. At least these days more people are willing to stare the truth right in the teeth. At least now we have millions more folks realizing this awful truth than we did right after Kerry was ripped off.

The only way we can overcome these machines is by a massive turnout. That and everyone telling their local election boards that they are aware and watching. These two massive moves may just make the machine programmers relent and offer up a fairer count.

It is my hope that we all, as I have done in my town, spread the message that we are aware and watching.

Peace.

16. Someone needs to write a viral hack that overwrites the Puke hack and gives out the real numbers....

Can you see Karl Rove then.....but but but those are the real numbers. Thats not suppose to happen.
