   Maybe some people have forgotten, but GWB and his admin will receive their pensions, for life I believe, unless they are removed from office prior to a new admin coming into office. This would be one way to get some of our tax $ back for more important uses.

    Brad – any idea what’s about to go down with Gov Blunt in MO? Fired UP calls it a “blockbuster” story.

    Hey, that piece about clips is RIGHT ON!

    I’m getting darn sick of people using clips to smear opponents. Liberals do that shit even more than the right wing smear machine.

    Cut it out!

    Right on everyone! Do not know how to use blogs but am wearing Obama buttons, volunteering at local Democratic headquarters.

    Your program is powerful beyond belief. More people need to hear these facts and arguments.

    Paul Yarrow of Peter, Paul and Mary was on Thom Hartmann this week and expressed powerful emotion about this being a time of change that he had dreamed of.

    Bring it on!

    I agree with Agent 99, A whole hour of green news or a tag team of Brad and Desi for the whole show one day would be great. Why you two sound so good together that you wouldn’t even need any guests.

    It’s UNANIMOUS! Green News Every Day All The Time!

    And, stick with that Impeach Scalia question, Brad. The Supremes can be impeached. It’s hard, but… er… it’s worth it with this one.

    ES&S Voting machines stink,
    they never run like you think,
    they flip everyone’s vote,
    yet, never called broke,
    But everyone here, knows they’re crap.

    They’re very easy to hack
    But impossible to ever take back
    costing so much
    our whole country and such
    The people that buy em`, are wack.

    Every election has been cracked
    To send all our kids to Iraq
    They’ve sold our soul
    Not to Rock and Roll
    Instead we’ve been stabbed in the back

    Time for these machines to go
    Paper Ballots are not THAT slow
    We can’t allow votes
    On machines that smoke dope
    While every damn election gets stole.

    Why would a code change the vote outcome …
    that makes no sense at all ???

    There was a young man named Phil
    Whose rhymes often flowed uphill
    He worked so hard as a poet
    You never would know it
    But those words were all products of will

    My sentiments exactly with your music pick at the beginning of your segment. They are more powerful than the (Godfathers) because they create their own law while in absolute power. Only by the written word of our (forefathers) can they be tried, sentenced.

    Bamboo Harvester

    In digital logic there’s

    Basic Logic, which is the foundation for all logic.

    Basic Logic breaks down to

    AND OR NOT NOR XOR

    With these you can make a pentium, or print numbers to a screen.

    Bamboo Harvester, I am not the best teacher.
    But there are those who have gone before me.

    http://www.ee.surrey.ac.uk/Proj...unc/index.html

    I would remind you that, not only can a “code” flip an election so can a specially crafted chip.

    Bamboo Harvester,

    Codes are software, digital logic is hardware; both are exploitable, while one “might” be audited (Software) the other can’t because the signals (electronic logic) are invisible to human sight.
