Vote scam

December 9, I posted a link sent by Jay to an article about a computer programmer who said Republican Congressman Tom Feeney approached him to create a program that could "switch" votes in electronic voting machines in Florida (which he did create). At the time, Bev Harris of Black Box Voting was calling it disinformation. Last week, the story took a more serious turn. The programmer "Clint Curtis made the claim Monday in sworn testimony to Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee investigating allegations of voter fraud" in Ohio.

I sure would like to see this bear fruit. Not that Bush's Red State minions wouldn't excuse His Hinee from the scandal, but maybe we could at least get some attention to the criminals running this show we pretend is democracy. It could be more likely, however, that the messenger, the computer programmer (who has proven himself to be willing to be a party to fraud - is vote tampering treasonous?), will be excoriated, Feeney drummed out of politics for a time (a la crook Nixon and the Watergate burglars), and then, their blood lust having been slaked, the American public will go right on with their willfully ignorant lives, suckered and manipulated by gangsters posing as civil servants.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
