Brad mentions the:

GOP voter suppression scam/assault on your democracy and Constitution ... This November is gonna be a nightmare. Big time.

And some of the worse, worser, and worst live near you Brad. Can they hack evoting machines too. Well, the Haas boyz leader in San Diego has been a primo hacker or over twenty years.

Yes, the San Diego GOP chair (acquaintance of the election official Haas there) went to one of those in late 1987 or 1988 ... today it would be called a 'hacker convention' ... they called them 'copy parties' two decades ago. They would get together and hack computers of various sorts.

Yes, the GOP has one of the world's best "hackers" (a.k.a. "cracker") who could crack computer codes.

Here are A TINY FEW of the 'notches on his belt' as far back as 20 years ago:

Let's not forget this either guys.

Morton Blackwell's Leadership Institute

The basic training school on how to rig elections

I think it deserves a rerun Brad.

I wonder if they do Software training there?

And I like to call this one Our Chickens Coming Home to Roost

The home of President John McCain and J Kenneth Blackwell.

I wonder if they do Software training there?

This is a hoot, I wonder when this will be scrubbed

John McCain:
The Manchurian Candidate connection:

McCain was subjected to 5 ½ years of Soviet driven "brain perversion techniques."
Is he fit to be President and Commander in Chief of the military?

Well after troubleshooting a DNS problem...
I loaded up slashdot. Who has an article today:

IT: DARPA Sponsors a Hunt For Malware In Microchips

Which links here:
http://spectrum.ieee.org/may08/6171

I hereby lay pressure back on electronic vote tabulation devices.

The OS don't matter it's the hardware that will make you never know.

It's an abusive use of technology because it can not and will not be destructively reverse-engineered under an electron microscope every time a recount is needed.

I lay on you ONE QUOTE...

"According to a U.S. defense contractor who spoke on condition of anonymity, a “European chip maker” recently built into its microprocessors a kill switch that could be accessed remotely."

So if a kill switch can go in, so can any other logic-bomb that some tweaker can imagine.

This should be de-facto evidence that this abusive use of electronics must be banned. Although, bla bla bla some pro machine shiz will say something about "defense contractor who spoke on condition of...." FUD bla bla bla .

Remember, the Pro machine shiz will say anything. Don't blame the maggots for eatin the decayed flesh.

Also, a big wave to Christine Craft. We still ain't forgot you out here in the Capitol City.

with the #4 link above and Schecters recent piece on his new book "The Real McCain", this gets kinda freaky.

[...] a former AP reporter who recounted to me seeing John McCain wander off into the Red Light District of Hanoi in 1996 when he was there to normalize relations with the Vietnamese. Or that it was known among reporters that he used to disappear into that part of town alone at night.

Almost like the movie isnt it? oooo-weeee-oooo

Kscrew it, one more QUOTE

"“You don't check for the infinite possible things that are not specified,” says electrical engineering professor Ruby Lee, a cryptography expert at Princeton. “You could check the obvious possibilities, but can you test for every unspecified function?”

Nor can chip makers afford to test every chip. From a batch of thousands, technicians select a single chip for physical inspection, assuming that the manufacturing process has yielded essentially identical devices. They then laboriously grind away a thin layer of the chip, put the chip into a scanning electron microscope, and then take a picture of it, repeating the process until every layer of the chip has been imaged. Even here, spotting a tiny discrepancy amid a chip's many layers and millions or billions of transistors is a fantastically difficult task, and the chip is destroyed in the process."

why do I have a boatload of Motorola tech data books? could it be I wanted to be an engineer at one point in time?

Note that they say, "DESTROY THE CHIP IN THE PROCESS"

By the way for those that are wondering, I have been having one bad thing happen after another bad thing. Back in the 70's I was always able to find a rational way to "fix" things when "sht happens" but that is not the case right now.

Life is sucking more and more, health sux, wealth is about to suck and prosperity.... don't make me laugh. Or DO..

Hey Phil,

I can tell that you have seen the light. We all have. They are so able to do it that we can't stop it by fighting them on their terms.

We will take them down on American principles. Those principles are rock solid.

That article is so friggin radical, by vets, that I wonder why they have not been branded "turrists".

If McCain is elected we will enter the very, very dark ages acording to their prognostications.

The vet dudes impressed me an Camp Casey.

I completely agree that this is a problem, but we should not be focusing on this problem. There is problem in politics today that disenfranchises many many more people than this photo ID problem. The biggest problem facing voters is the caucus system. Most people can't be at a certain place at a certain time. With primaries at least you can vote by absentee ballot, with caucuses you must be at the caucus. Approximately 50,000 Jewish people in my home state (Washington) would not have been able to vote because the caucus was held on a Saturday. Another problem is a lot of people can't get off work for an hour or two to go vote. So while I agree the photo ID is a problem it is very small compared to the huge problem of the caucus system.

Welll then, just drink another Bad Frog ... and send money to the Brad Blog dudes and dudettes ...

Matt #12 -

So while I agree the photo ID is a problem it is very small compared to the huge problem of the caucus system.

The caucus system is part of your private Democratic and/or Republican parties. Have a problem with it? Take it to them and change it.

Blocking voters from voting, however, is a Constitutional matter, resulting in Constitutional rights being stripped from Americans by fiat of a horrible, Dred Scott-like decision from the Supreme Court.

Two completely different concerns. You can take your worries to the Democratic and/or Republican Parties re: caucus. I answer only to a higher power: the U.S. Constitution.

Pfeh! Dinosaur!

Nobody in the government is doing it! That's so pre-20-January-2001!
