A dose of cold water reality - will voting machines cheat us on Tuesday?

[Bozos for Bush]

The super-secret neo-con/religious right organization, Council for National Policy (CNP), has strong connections to all major voting machine companies that will calculate millions and millions of votes this year.

"It turns out that Diebold Election Systems’ CEO is Bob Urosevich. His brother Todd founded “rival” ES&S. Together, these two companies will tally around 80% of votes cast next November.

Howard Ahmanson bankrolled the Urosevich brothers in the vote-counting business. Ahmanson is also a member of the Council for National Policy, a right-wing “steering group” that whispers into Dubya’s other ear.

SEQUOIA
Sequoia is also supplying electronic voting machines in this fall’s follies. Sequoia featured prominently in a massive corruption court case that sent top Louisiana state officials to jail for taking bribes funneled through Mob-connected “front” firms. Sequoia’s parent company, Madison Dearborn is – wait for it – a partner in the Carlyle Group.

SAIC
Run by Admiral Bill Owens, former military aide to Dick Cheney; Carlyle crony Frank Carlucci, and ex-CIA chief Robert Gates, weapons contractor SAIC aims to become a major player in the vote-counting roulette now going global in places like England, Latin America, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, India, and Asia."

1. voting is the weak point of the American political system

If a simple act of Congress can force voting to be done by machines controlled by their friends, then the right has won - forever.

2. Wrong - we must never, ever, let them win

This election is important, yet it is merely one of many battles that honest, ethical people must wage to take this country back from the brink.

After the election, we need to start class-action lawsuits against a whole shitload of dishonest corporations and 527s.

We need to dig for evidence that will convict every single one of them.

Gary Jarmin, the Ridenours, Response Dynamics, Scaife, Bozell, Harlan Crow, and hundreds others...remember their names!

3. Of Course They Are Going to Try To Steal It

     We Make Democracy DIE


The only thing that might be able to stop them is
the biggest landslide in history for Kerry.
