A Great New 50 Second E-Voting Video

50 seconds well spent…Click play on the video at left.

That terrific video is just out from CountAllVotes.com.

The FL House is currently in the throes of either adding poison pills to, or otherwise trying to fend off Gov. Charlie Crist’s long-overdue and responsible plan to bring paper ballots to the beleaguered voters of the Sunshine State. His courageous plan would do away with all of the state’s horrible, disenfranchising, touch-screen DRE voting machines in time for 2008, something which even Democrats in the U.S. House, so far, have been shamefully afraid to do.

Please go visit the site and take action — whether you’re from Florida or not, you can help their campaign…which will help us all.

    When the vote is the only connection between the people and their government, and it isn’t counted, the government opperates without representing the people: corporate oligarchy.

    Terse and to the point
    Exactly what we need. People get tired of being harangued at, we know it’s screwed up, so it’s good to be entertained and pointed in the right direction.
    I have to wonder if Rudy knows where his campaign dollars are going and if he’s aware it’s a colossal waste of time and money, like we’re really going to elect another George W. Bush. But as Janice Joplin advised us, “…get it while you can.” Every dollar because it may be a while before that kind of money, you know, Republican Monopoly money, comes this way again.

    Chuck #4 said: “…like we’re really going to elect another George W. Bush.” That’s just the point. We never did elect George W. Bush so, unless we get rid of these machines and stop the Rethuglicans other machinations to corrupt the voting process, we just might get another George W. Bush.

    Not that I disagree with your sentiments: great commercial, horrible administration!!

    The “they are afraid canard” is the mythical mantra of the ad hominem realm.

    For those who really want to know, the real fact is that “they don’t have enough votes”.

    The Kuchinich impeachment bill is but one example. Since the republicans have enough votes to stop it in the House and prevent the required 67 votes in the Senate (the republicans “remain faithful” to the 11th commandment), the dems “are afraid” to file Articles of Impeachment (even tho they already have) according to this ad hominem realm.

    Here is some more evidence in support of the Kuchinich bill.

    However, since the republicans are in a stay the course trance I can already hear “dems are afraid to Convict on Impeachment”.

    The overall truth is that the republicans are afraid to break ranks with the neoCon infestation and they are putting party over country.

    MSMishNess is spreading … all infections do … as long as there are carriers.

    I hope folks that were outside Florida, sent the email, and made something creative up like I did.

    Awesome video, I love the disappearing smoke!

    Links Time, Steve #5 said “That’s just the point. We never did elect George W. Bush so, unless we get rid of these machines and stop the Rethuglican’s other machinations to corrupt the voting process, we just might get another George W. Bush.” Exactly! Spot On! What I shoulda’ said and didn’t. And from PHIL #8 said “I hope folks that were outside Florida, sent the email, and made something creative up like I did.” I didn’t, because I’m not all that creative, but I did send a link to Nancy Tobi’s website, , and , and there are others, but those folks in Florida need all of our support we can give.
