Lou Dobbs keeps talking about the threat from e-voting machines.
He, or his surrogates, have a long segment about it almost every night. It's called The Threat to Our Democracy.

Knock, knock, is anybody home?

Some officials in Ohio are encouraging people to vote absentee. But this isn't a real solution! What's going on around the country to combat this threat? Imo, these machines should all be banned, yesterday. It's not like there isn't an immediately available alternative, i.e. individual hand ballots.

:wtf::banghead:

1. I thought Lou Dobbs was a freeper.
Why would he be bringing up Diebold?

2. FREEPER?? LOL. He's a patriot.
He was a Republican, but I'm not sure about now. Regardless of past or present party affiliation, he's one of the most outspoken media critics of the BFEE (on television, probably second only to Keith Olberman). Plus, he's about the only t.v. host who is exposing the e-voting fraud, and doing it on a daily basis.

10. Well, I would hardly equate Lou Dobbs with that group.
I know many on DU don't like him, but any commentator who speaks up against voter fraud, and the BFEE has got a lot going for him, imcpo.

13. That 's my point
They have had 2 years (almost) to fix the problem. Now here we are 65 days away form the election and very little has been done and very few if any Democrats has acknowledged there is a problem with these machines.

8. Dobbs is hated by many here at DU
I think for his stance on Illegal Immigration. And he gets little credit for being the only voice I know of who speaks out against the Phony Elections from the Machines...

11. I know. I just ignore the illegal immigration stuff.
I honestly don't have a solid opinion about it one way or the other. What Dobbs contributes in terms of exposing the * cabal's criminality, and the electoral fraud going on in this country, is priceless. He a jewel. Like Olberman.

9. Thanks Lou Dobbs
but I'm sure you will soon start being dismissed as a senile old man by your current/former beloved party...

I do think Lou is very outspoken and I applaud him for that. Too bad he just doesn't come out and say Bush is a stupid asshole.

12. "Too bad he just doesn't come out and say Bush is a stupid asshole."
He's come about as close as you can get. I doubt if he actually said that he could survive.
