Guest Blogged by John Gideon of VotersUnite.org

Today is a hodge-podge of news and editorials. More on the for or against discussion of HR-811 and today Senator Feinstein announced the filing of her version of Holt’s bill. We also have editorials from two Utah papers that, of course, like HAVA just the way it is and more on the New Jersey lawsuit. All of those stories and more, are linked below.

Other than all of that, this is it for a week. The ‘Daily Voting News” staff (me) is taking a well deserved vacation. See you next Friday…

      John, enjoy your rest.

      If you worked for Halliburton, guess where your vacation would take place:

      Halliburton will shift some 70 percent of its capital investment over the next five years to the Eastern Hemisphere, which includes oil and gas zones in the Middle East, Russia, Africa, the North Sea and East Asia, the company’s chief said Tuesday from his new headquarters in Dubai.

      (Halliburton Cuts And Runs, emphasis added). Perhaps they had to do that to work the end against the middle. Iran and Iraq signed a deal for an oil pipline from Iraq to Iran:

      Iraq oil minister Hussein Al Shahristani and Hasan Kazemi Qomi, the Iranian ambassador to Iraq, struck the deal, according to a top ministry spokesman.

      (Iran – Iraq Oil Pipeline). Does anyone think Cheney was over there threatening Iran for no reason? Was this oil pipeline deal a cause for war … the false flag being the nuclear issue?
