I was joined today by The Nation’s Ari Berman on my KPFK/Pacifica Radio show to discuss his new article today in Rolling Stone on “The GOP War on Voting”. See my report on his article from earlier in the day right here.
This was an important discussion about an important article about one of the most important issues to directly effect the outcome of virtually every election in the nation in 2012. None of that, apparently, given what the rest of the MSM decided to cover today, is any where near as important as whether John Boehner will allow the President to speak to a joint session of Congress on Sept 7th or or whether it’ll have to be on Sept 8th, and whether Christine O’Donnell or Sarah Palin will appear at a “Tea Party” event this weekend in Iowa.
And you wonder why we’re in the mess we’re in.

My conversation on “The GOP War on Voting” with Ari Berman today follows…
When you say that, you must have meant “War on Voting”
If democrats or republicans wanted voting machines gone, or public oversight of elections, it would be done. You wouldn’t have to bitch about if for seven years
They want them there.
They may legally be two parties, but it’s one party who makes sure those bloody machines are there.
To describe the situation another way (Like you did saying GOP ) isn’t journalism, it’s deception
Baaad, makes me wonder about your Green BS motivations.
