M. Taylor says she doesnt intend to testify cause Bush claimed executive privilege. But Mr.Cheney said hes no part of the executive. Wheres the court to imrison these assholes?

John,

The article you linked to had some positive news:

The Brennan Center for Justice, to cite just one example, stopped the disenfranchisement of some 300-700,000 voters, with lawsuits and advocacy.

(Waldman at Huffpo, emphasis added). Once upon a time on this blog I had a disagreement with Bev Harris, who was posting advocating abandonment of legal actions as a form of remedy for voting issues.

And yesterday I was chided by Agent 99 and Floridiot for asking RFK, Jr. how the qui tam was going. I can understand those two good Bradbloggers are frustrated with the courts and why.

Evidently, according to them, RFK was advocating the abandonment of such efforts, as Bev Harris once did.

As your link shows, it would be the apex of folly to abandon any method or means of fixing the election system.

The courts are still worth fighting for and fighting in IMO.

Honestly, after musing on this issue for a while, I've come to the conclusion that truly secret ballots have, at best, mixed effects on election integrity.

If there is really a constitutional guarantee of secret ballots in Washington state, then, obviously, it's necessary to take appropriate practical steps there. However, the vote-by-mail process with its intrinsic delays and authentication issues is quite vulnerable, and ballot serial numbers represent a powerful tool for auditing and testing election integrity.

Considering that vote-by-mail fails to ensure voting boot privacy, the argument that ballot secrecy is somehow more important that process verifiability is preposterous.

Speaking of voting to fix election problems, another vote is added to HRes 333:

On Tuesday, a northern Virginia Democrat decided to add his support to a growing movement in the House of Representatives to impeach Vice President Dick Cheney.

(Raw Story).

Damn DREDD your a fsckin dictionary!!
