1. Rat bastards!

These monsters never quit, do they?

[ThomCat]

2. You knew this was going to be the case.

Security is expensive. It's cheaper to talk about security than to actually provide it.

Besides, who actually believes that they want these machines to be secure?

3. sounds like the job is right up my alley..

I used to run a loading dock and shipped and received computers and their components daily. Too bad I don't live in San Francisco. I've also been told that I'm areally horrible driver, especially backing up. I took out a group of my neighbors' mailboxes recently, I don't imagine voting machines would be much harder.

18. Hmm..lots of "accidents" in shipping/delivery? What a lovely thought.

I'm not advocating vandalism, mind you. But if bunches of Diebold machines just happened to get dropped off a forklift, I wouldn't shed any tears.

4. 5th nomination. This madness must stop.

[movonne]

5. People in California should demand that paper ballots be available...

[elehhhhna]

6. I don't think they actually drive the machines around--it's an ad for

warehouse workers. I think they probably work at a central warehouse loading & unloading the machines from whatever vehicles transport them to polling places.

Still room for some tricky naughtiness there, though.

[dalaigh lllama]

11. Ah, you're being too charitable

The ad says dropping the machines off and picking them up -- that's got to refer to delivery.
Hmm. Maybe some of the more computer literate here could volunteer for the job and hoist them on their own petard. }(

[mod mom]

7. Now they can blame someone when the machines are hacked. nt

[InkAddict]

8. Thinking about big gaussers, hmmmm eom

[Mythsaje]

9. Can you say "industrial accident?"

I knew you could.

In a fight between a forklift and a voting machine, which do you think would win?

;)

[roseBudd]

10. Kelly is the temp agency Nathan Sproul used for voter registration

malfeasance.

[mod mom]

12. Hmmh...ulterior motives? Inquiring minds want to know.

[elehhhhna]

13. perhaps. scary though. i ran a temp co (high dollar staff)

and WTH will voters do if the temps no show (20% will be, guaranteed.)

[Roland99]

14. Let's get some DUers in there posing as Repugs!

[nicknameless]

15. If they release custody of the machines to someone else,

they can claim that others are responsible for any tampering.

[hunter]

16. Damn, I thought you said "scuttle."

:shrug:

17. Christ on a cracker.! . . . WTF's wrong with these people /. . . n/t
