John Gideon covered the mess for us as things unfolded last Tuesday. Johns Hopkins computer science professor Avi Rubin was, once again, a poll worker on Election Day during last Tuesday’s primary in the state. As BRAD BLOG readers know, Maryland was/is one of Diebold’s original “showcase states” along with Georgia.
Rubin’s post, detailing his experiences at his one polling place alone last Tuesday, gives a crystal clear picture of what a fucking mess we’ve got on our hands. A. Fucking. Mess.
Train wreck ahead. Big time. Please don’t say you weren’t warned.
I wasn’t warned.
Just kidding!
– Tom 🙂
Nice to see you back blogging Brad.
Reading Rubin’s post I keep “screaming” inside. Please fight for paper ballots. As a commenter said, with all the time it takes to set up and fix mistakes paper ballots would be faster and less money AND all votes should be counted.
I don’t recall who said this on Crooks and Liars. “Live Free or Diebold”
want some blunt truth?
America dont give a shit about maryland.
It should but it don’t!!
Wow…that Ney news is big…BUT
WAKEY WAKEY PEEPS
Remember Mike McCormack? The man who found the flag at ground zero?
Major Mike McCormack ““ Medic; specialist in collapsed infrastructure rescue and hazmat
Major Mike McCormick, at the time holding the rank of Captain with the U.S. Air Force Auxiliary Patrol, arrived at Ground Zero about three hours after both towers had collapsed. He worked throughout the first six days of the rescue effort, until it changed from search and recovery to recovery only. While engaged in this work, he found the World Trade Center towers’ flag, which was later displayed at the Olympics. Major McCormick now suffers from respiratory illness and gastro-esophageal reflux disease. He was awarded a Congressional Certificate, a thank you letter from the President, and a commendation from Governor Pataki. He was denied coverage by the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund because it asserted that he had not proved that he was there.

Well….Major McCormack YESTERDAY publicly stated that the US has turned into nazi Germany.
The reason for this is that in his fight to receive his rightful compensation being denied him, he became “the enemy” in the eyes of OUR government. He was one of the key people to uncover the documents that showed the White House directed the lies about air quality in NYC after 9/11.
A few days ago, after these documents became public, a group of heavily armed law enforcement officers arrived at his apartment building and told a tennant they were there to search the building “for a tennant” but had no warrant. What they had was a consent form. This tennant let them in. Of course, most people would since they’re “the good guys”.
A FEDERAL SWAT team then blew in surrounding Major McCormack armed with MP5 machine guns and 9 mm handguns pointed at his head.
HELLO!!!!!
Would OUR government do this???

Can you understand what “OUR” government is now? For one thing, it’s not ours at all at this point. It’s time to stop watching all the pretty, sparkly “politics” and tune in to the thread of events that is ongoing and accelerating towards the worst possible outcome for this country.

WASHINGTON – Nonlethal weapons such as high-power microwave devices should be used on American citizens in crowd-control situations before they are used on the battlefield, the Air Force secretary said Tuesday.

HELLOOOOOO!!! Wartime weapons TESTED ON US CITIZENS????

How about chemical and biological weapons?

It’s legal for the US govt. to use WMDs on the US public.
(war on terror inspired all kinds of wonderful “protections” for us)
So maybe it’s legal for them to send all those New Yorkers into poisoned air. Could they spin it into a rationale that sending them in was related to a law enforcement purpose?
a vote should be counted.
