Wow - Lou Dobbs is on the CASE !!! Election Machines No Paper Trail
We must write him !! He said, after a report on the lack of security on electronic machines - "Democracy at Risk", "What are they thinking, this is scary? What about the companies who make machines, what do they say?"

He obviously needs a DU lesson on election security !

1. He doesn't understand the crap either
When I worked at a bank, we had two paper register receipts along with our computer reciepts... Now I think my vote is more important that money, so it is worth recording....

2. Right, but you know how he is like a dog when something
bothers him - i.e. immigration. If we could send him material on election fraud potential - maybe he would get on the bandwagon. If you think BFEE was on his case, trying to get him fired for his stance on immigration - you ain't seen nothing yet.

3. It would be great if he would switch from immigration to election reform.
He has been harping on immigration for so long it's wearing thin. I think election reform is much more important anyway, and I would love to have Lou go after these phony Republican voting machines.

4. He's been covering election fraud for the last 6 to 7 days.
I think it is his new cause.

5. Interesting. But why then did he not seem to know that the
machine vendors were in kahoots with Bush?

6. So when the Dem's sweep
in November will all the fraudsters still be on the Lou "pump and Dump " Dobbs bandwagon when he and the rest of the whore media uses the same unsubstantiated allegations and innuendo some in the 'reform' movement have for the past four years?

Or, will they join the chorus that has been demanding proof.

Dobb's is no working class hero.

7. Dobbs said that the voting machines can be programmed to ERASE
your vote. Isn't that enough to outrage every voter?

8. Any mention of exit polls?
We need more than one form of check and balance.

Paper trail is number one!

9. Dobbs covers the election machines issue only as a
backdrop to demonizing the Mexicans and Mexico.

And, with a lot less passion. His outrage looks almost feigned.

Also, I believe all of his poll questions are on the oft repeated and emphazized "ILLEGAL" immigration.
Where are the guest to analyze something as important as election fraud? :shrug:
