Vote-rigging software written for Republican...
I couldn't find this posted anywhere else...


Shocking election-theft testimony

Posted by Evan Derkacz at 3:16 PM on August 23, 2006.

Vote-rigging software written for Republican...

Computer programmer Clinton Eugene Curtis testifies under oath before the U.S. House Judiciary Members in Ohio (back in 2004) -- video to the right (partial transcript below). Stephen Pizzo writes:

If you can watch this entire video, and still use an electronic voting machine, you deserve the government you get. If your state or district has decided to use electronic voting machines this November demand an absentee ballot today. Watch this video. Then join those of us who have decided that since paper was good enough for our constitution, it's good enough for our vote too.

Oh, and when you're done watching the whole video... pass it along. November is only a a few weeks off and the last thing Republicans want to see is either house returned to Democrat control. Because if that happens, hearings happen. And if hearings happen... well, who knows - someone(s) could go to jail. So, demand a paper ballot or an absentee ballot in Nov. and leave the cheaters with a pocket full of worthless Diebold electrons.

3. And Help Clint kick Feeney's. . . Clint Curtis for Congress (FL 24)
http://clintcurtis.com/

Feeney has of course been calling Clint a conspiracy nut.

Here's a great counter: We'll if anyone had told me a chairman of the Congressional Missing and Exploited Children's Caucus was a pedophile, I might have questioned that person sanity.

Truth is stranger than fiction. Apparently there's no bounds to what some Republicans think they can get away with.

4. I think this story will keep
giving and giving, How long did Cable news coverup the Foley story, all the cable news channels that knew about this story, and covered it up, are sick bastards.

So if they are sick enough to coverup a story like this, they most certainly, would cover up the fact, that our Government is parading secret vote counting machines throughout the Country.

Right now, if I were covering for this group in the White House be it for their vote rigging machines, the exit poll numbers of 2004, and came to find out that there was a child predator amongst them, and there is a hint that they knew and tried to cover it up, I would wash my hands of them, faster than a cat trying to shit on a hot tin roof. K+R

7. Feeney is sending a hard cardboard flyer which basically calls
Curtis crazy. Is that even legal?

8. meme - "If someone told me a pedophile chaired the exploited children . .
. . .caucus, I might have questioned their sanity too. The Republicans are apparently capable of anything. Feeney's denial is no better than "Foley's 'assurance.' Clint testified under oath. Why aren't they investigating?"

WRT legality. Clint could (and should) sue for defamation (specifically libel -- harmful statement in a fixed medium, especially writing but also a picture, sign, or electronic broadcast). Bringing a lawsuit tells the public "this is a lie, and I am ready to prove it." (Clinton, Albright, and Berger should be suing ABC for the lies in Path to 911 for the same reason.)

Perhaps there is a lawyer out there who would be willing to file a suit against Feeney pro bono?
