4. The only thing I can remember
was that he was suprised a person in Illinois would be so aware of the voting machines in Georgia. If he only knew how many people were aware of his voting machines.

24. I really wish I had more time to phrase the question better
but I was afraid I would have been cut off if I had been too radical. I tried to interupt him and ask how he intended to secure those machines but I think they had cut me. I wanted to ask what job he was going to look for after he was thrown out of office because of vote fraud. Wish C-SPAN had gotten to the reply. Talking on the phone is my favorite thing to do very nervous on TV. I also was the one who got Bev's named mentioned awhile back with Brian Lamb.

8. I heard you!!!
You did good! His answer was a fluff standard (corporatist) answer without any substance. It looked to me as if you blind sided him. However, I do think he knows about those voting machines he just doesn't give the people of this country enough credit for being smart and paying attention and to think I almost turned him off.

Good job!

16. Great job.. I also noticed that they had that little troll, Kyle on
I busted him last week, on-air about his "memos" from the energy meeting..

That's what we have to do.. Hit them hard about the thing they do NOT want to talk about.. I just wish more hosts were like Pedro.. He lets the caller stay on for a rebuttal..


oh my...THIS is odd.. I went to look for the 8/5/03 WJ when I called him, and that and the 4th are the only ones missing from their video line-ep that goes back MONTHS...

8/4 & 8/5 sre totally not there ...

18. I heard you!
Congratulations, you did great!

I also noticed he said "Hey, how do you know about those machines when you don't even live in our state?" They think it's a secret. Hah.

His answer was such a non-answer. Well, people like using the machines because they are so easy to use! But people need to know the machines can't be tampered with. Right. Like he informs the citizens of Georgia when there are questions about the integrity of the machines?

20. Heard ya, too.
He seemed to miss the implications of your question, mainly "Your Governorship is illegitimate." Oh, well.

Tip: If you ask this again, hammer home "Auditable paper trail." That's really all we're asking.
