asking how we could not have paper ballots. Saying it seems ridiculous that we can't have this by November.

1. Man, Lou has found his voice!
Stay away from small planes and unscreened windows over 50 feet above hard surfaces, Lou.

4. Memo to Lou: The GOP has been taken over by fascists.
I'm sorry...it's not the GOP you thought you belonged to.

9. Lou is having the same moment of epiphany all the BBV folks had
What Bev and others have uncovered concerning flawed Diebold equipment is shocking, but what's more shocking is that the problems have not been addressed in an election year.

10. Exactly....
Lou was baffled as to why the voter verification securities, in some states, were not required until 2006! Well DUH Lou, welcome to BFEE Amurika!!

7. What's with Lou?
I can understand him being on the protectionist side wrt job outsourcing, but BBV is our issue. THis is wierd. First a Special Ops career soldier comes on board http://www.buzzflash.com/farrell/04/03/far04006.html, now a devout supply-sider. Fishy?

11. Might need to take the comma off the end of that link, Doc.
I wish Farrell had linked to more of that soldier's comments.

Thanks for the info.

8. I saw Lou for the first time yesterday--he was clearly pissed!
the rest of the tv media was too stunningly airhead-ish to believe.

tv wasteland.

14. "they expect to fix the problem by 2006"
that's what Ron Brownstein of the LA Times said ... what was so incredible was how matter-of-factly he said it ...

Dobbs really got on his case about how absurd this was ...

It seems to me that something has finally hit the fan on this issue ... we'll see ...
