"What constitutes the bulwark of our ^USA own liberty and independence?

It is not our ^USA frowning battlements, our ^USA bristling seacoasts, the guns of our ^USA war steamers, or the strength of our ^USA gallant + disciplined army.

These are not our ^USA reliance against a resumption of tyranny in our ^USA fair land.

All of them may be turned against our ^USA liberties, without making us stronger or weaker for the struggle.

our ^USA reliance is in the love of liberty which God has planted in our ^USA bosoms.

our ^USA defense is in the preservation of the spirit which prizes liberty as the heritage of all men, in all lands, everywhere.

Destroy this spirit + you have planted the seeds of despotism around your ^USA own doors.

Familiarize your USAselves with the chains of bondage, + you are preparing your ^USA own limbs to wear them.

Accustomed to trample on the rights of those around you, you have lost the genius of your ^USA own independence + become the fit subjects of the first cunning tyrant who rises." - Abraham Lincoln
in these days - What afflicts the people of the ^USA that they have developed the capacity not only to tolerate, but even to cherish +the blatant lies + hypocrisies + the injustices + the evasions + of course the invasions perpetrated by George W Bush + his neo-conservative cabal?

How can even conservatives themselves stomach this internationalist, interventionist, activist-court-packing, states'-rights-suppressing cat's-paw of the transnational culture of control that is the only heartfelt homeland of the corporate elite?

"Fascism should more properly be called corporatism, since it is the merger of state and corporate power."_{Mussolini—Benito}

But the overriding question of that original group of pilots was:

If we are at war, who is the enemy?

The group determined that the enemy is within the gates, that he has infiltrated into the highest policy-making positions at the federal level + has absolute control, not only of the purse strings, but of the troop buildup + deployment of our military forces, including active, reserve + National Guard units.

A more recent example is the conspiracy to assassinate Martin Luther King Jr. as described in detail by Attorney William Peppers in his book Act of State (2001).

00.000.1999 -after seventy witnesses provided unimpeachable evidence it took the jury only one hour to determine that J. Edgar Hoover + USA FBI + Richard Helms + USA CIA + USA military + USA local Memphis police + organized crime figures from New Orleans + Memphis plotted to murder King.

The very fact of the trial itself was buried by corporate media. URL: https://www.trytolive.com/bri01.htm

18.Dec.2004 Gehirn-Modell: Hält jeder Wissenschaftler den Schlüssel zur Genialität in den eigenen Händen? _URL:_{https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/mensch/0,1518,druck-333347,00.html}

18.Dec.2004 Eine Eigenheit kreativer Menschen konnten die Wissenschaftler aber doch identifizieren:

In ihren Gehirnen gibt es viel mehr verschiedene Assoziationen zu jedem Gedanken als bei weniger Begabten.

Das liegt einerseits daran, dass viele erfolgreiche und innovative Menschen sehr kontaktfreudig sind und sich im Gespräch mit anderen immer wieder neue Ideen und Anregungen holen.
Andererseits kann das Unterbewusstsein kreativer Menschen häufig sehr schlecht Wichtiges von Unwichtigem unterscheiden - ihr Gehirn nimmt einfach alles nahezu ungefiltert auf.

Dadurch haben diese Menschen viel mehr Informationen zur Verfügung, aus denen sich neue und fruchtbare Gedankenkombinationen bilden können.

Im Gegenzug sind ihre Gehirne durch den fehlenden Filter aber auch sehr viel schneller überlastet.

Die Folge können psychische Störungen wie beispielsweise Schizophrenie sein - eine Krankheit, die ebenfalls durch schlechtere Reizfilter gekennzeichnet ist. _URL:_{https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/mensch/0,1518,druck-333347,00.html}
18.Dec.2004 Eine Portion Eigensinn dagegen ist nötig, damit ein Wissenschaftler festgefahrene Gedankenwege überhaupt verlassen und alte Vorstellungen über Bord werfen kann._URL:_{https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/mensch/0,1518,druck-333347,00.html}
18.Dec.2004 Der Zufall. Der bestimmt schließlich schon, welchen Ideen, Theorien und Gedankenmodellen ein Wissenschaftler während seines Studiums begegnet.

Wenn diese Ideen dann im Kopf herumschwirren, ist es ebenfalls Zufall, welcher Gedanke auf welchen stößt.

Bildet sich dabei die richtige Kombination, kann daraus eine neue geniale Idee entstehen. _URL:_{https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/mensch/0,1518,druck-333347,00.html}
18.Dec.2004 Auch heute noch beschäftigen sich Wissenschaftler mit der Frage, warum bestimmten Menschen Dinge einfallen und anderen nicht.

Für Gerd Graßhoff, Professor für Wissenschaftstheorie von der Universität Bern, ist die Sache klar:

Fleiß, Geduld und Zeit - mehr braucht es nicht, um eine geniale Entdeckung zu machen. _URL:_{https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/mensch/0,1518,druck-333347,00.html}
18.Dec.2004 Graßhoffs These: Wenn alle möglichen Lösungen eines Problems systematisch getestet und ausprobiert werden, führt das automatisch zum Durchbruch.

Um das zu beweisen, hat der Wissenschaftler sogar ein Computerprogramm entwickelt, das nach diesem Prinzip wissenschaftliche Entdeckungen nachvollziehen kann,

berichtet das Magazin "Bild der Wissenschaft" in seiner Januar-Ausgabe.
Computern fehlt das Zufalls-Prinzip
Glaubt man dagegen anderen Wissenschaftlern wie dem amerikanischen Kreativitätsforscher Dean Simonton, kann ein Computer niemals eigene kreative Ideen entwickeln.

Dazu fehlt ihm nämlich das nach Ansicht von Simonton wichtigste Moment - der Zufall. _URL:_{https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/mensch/0,1518,druck-333347,00.html}
18.Dec.2004 Kreativitätsforschung
Macht nur Fleiß das Genie zum Genie?
Fleiß, Geduld und Zeit - mehr braucht es nicht für eine geniale Erfindung.

Das behauptet ein Forscher der Universität Bern.

Andere Wissenschaftler machen vor allem mangelhafte Selektionsmechanismen im Hirn für die Geistesblitze verantwortlich.

Für sie steht das Genie wortwörtlich an der Grenze zum Wahnsinn. _URL:_{https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/mensch/0,1518,druck-333347,00.html}

18.Dec.2004 Richard Hayes Phillips, Ph.D. has more on vote inflation and vote switching in various areas of Ohio.
Machine politics. Mathematician Tom Lohrentz, in a piece that I should have cited earlier, absolutely nails the long-heard allegation that voting machines were deliberately withheld from African-American neighborhoods. Republicans crow about their get-out-the-vote efforts, when all focus should stay on their keep-the-vote-low efforts:
The level of crowdedness did make a difference. Overall, voter turnout (% voting of active voters) was 12.5 % higher in precincts that were not crowded compared to precincts that were extremely crowded. Using these differences, the analysis calculated an estimate of the number of disenfranchised voters, assuming that each precinct had sufficient voting machines, i.e. was not crowded. All told, over 22,000 voters were likely kept from voting due to long lines at the polling stations. Of these, about 70 % or over 15,000 were in heavily Democratic precincts. Because Democratic voters are more vulnerable to long lines than Republican voters, an even higher %age of these 22,000 votes would likely have been cast for the Democratic candidate. The Republicans must be a political price for this racist behavior.

18.Dec.2004 So let's get this straight: If you are a Republican election worker in a Democratic-leaning district, you need merely arrange for the "erroneous" disposal of a load of ballots. Even if the error is later discovered, it cannot be rectified. So ruleth Judge Stephanie.
URL: https://cannonfire.blogspot.com/
18.Dec.2004 several advantages:
1. We have no idea how events will break. As I write, there are rumors -- just rumors -- of "insiders" willing to confess all. A last-minute confession could make the election of Kerry (or better still, a revote) possible. So could a belated revelation of some other type of Bushian malfeasance.
2. Carrying the fight into Congress will create (pardon the expression) a shit-storm. The resultant discussion will focus national attention on the G.O.P.'s undeniable efforts to disenfranchise blacks. Each day that discussion continues will make more people aware that the party of "Christian virtue" is actually the party of filthy electoral tactics. The odor of manipulation may rob Bush of his domestic "political capital," not to mention whatever may be left of his overseas credibility.
3. Even if Bush takes the oath, public outrage over the abuses of November 2 may force the Republicans to play a cleaner game next time.
4. Emphasizing the efforts to target blacks will undercut long-term Republican efforts to woo minorities.
5. Everyone knew that the Republicans did not have the votes to impeach and remove President Clinton, but they nevertheless fought to the bitter end. Do we want it said that we, unlike our enemies, lack the belly for battle?
URL: https://cannonfire.blogspot.com/
18.Dec.2004 ...a few simple questions -- damned good questions.
Are there exit poll results for the races for governor, senator, representative, whatever? Did those poll results consistently undervalue the Republican vote, or is that phenomenon restricted to the presidential contest?
Mind you -- if the exits predicted a margin of victory differing from the actuals in races for lesser office, we should not discount the possibility of vote fraud in those instances as well. Just ask Tom Feeney. He knows all about that sort of thing.
Speaking of Feeney... The congressman's hometown newspaper, the Seminole Chronicle, has written a terrific piece on the Clint Curtis allegations:
Curtis said he has been trying to get attention drawn to his claims since shortly after leaving Yang Enterprises, but has had difficulty until this year. After watching a news report about voting machines in Florida being installed at precincts without having their software inspected, he said he redoubled his effort to get public attention.
"People finally care," Curtis told the Chronicle. "Coming forward isn't the problem, it's people caring."
The Democrats are listening, as is a non-partisan government watchdog group called Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington. The group, which began working with Curtis in early December, is working to verify elements of his story. You know that if Feeney were a Democrat, Curtis' claims would have long since created headlines in the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Times, and beyond...

18.Dec.2004 Another strange behavior from the local police: As you probably know, volunteers have been watching the Greene County BOE 24 hours a day since the mysterious "unlocked door" last Saturday morning. I have several audio recordings of the local Sheriff stopping by the BOE and talking very politely with Katrina while she watched the building Saturday night and Sunday morning.
Those that volunteered for watching the building on Sunday and Monday night also had polite conversations with the local law enforcement when they stopped by during the night to check the building.
However, on Tuesday night, before the recounts were to start in Greene County on Wednesday, Katrina says that the "police did everything possible to make sure there would be no one there". Katrina stopped by the BOE on Tuesday night to find that several Police cars had "surrounded" the volunteers watching the building and that "police were threatening to jail this person".
Katrina was also pulled over in Greene County because her license place was "crooked" and the tint on her window was too dark.
Katrina is not working directly with Joan and Eve right now so she can't speak to the details they have provided in interviews. She does say they are working in the same County. We've all heard the phrase "driving while black." Perhaps now we can recognize a new term: "Driving while Democratic."

18.Dec.2004 A house divided: David Cobb of the Green party blasts John Kerry for not contributing to the recount effort. Cobb alleges that Kerry retains $51 million of leftover campaign money. The vast majority of that money, however, was given to the DNC for the financing of future campaigns for lower offices.

13.Dec.2004 20:3 Gary Webb, exposer of CIA complicity in cocaine trade, found dead at home

From the open publishing newswire: Gary Webb, whose work exposed CIA facillitated and protected drug-smuggling, was found dead in his home this Friday morning. His death has been called a suicide, as he apparently died from a gunshot to the head. Given the nature of his most contraversial work, one can forgive this writer for being suspicious as to whether or not Mr. Webb actually took his own life. The CIA, which was deeply embarrassed by Webb's series in the San Jose Mercury News back in 1996 is known for assassinating political opponents. With the Passage of the ^USA PATRIOT act, the CIA is now able to conduct such dirty business inside our borders.

Regardless of the circumstances of Mr. Webb's death, authentic, muckraking journalism has lost a true champion. read more >>

18.Dec.2004 An outstanding name of the list, Zuenir Ventura, 64, 40 years experience in the profession, pattern maker, author of "1968 - The year which did not finish"

took advantage of the fact to write the article "Loss and Damage", published by "Jornal do Brasil" in May 27, including some reflections about the methods of the press.

"The power of press is arbitrary + its damages are irreparable" he declared.

"The recantation never has the same force of the accusation.

The justice has at least one code to define what crime is;

in the press there are no rules , even to define news, or ethics" (we can apply this lesson to Globo’s lack of appetite in relation to Arrieta).
However, the outstanding point of Zuenir Ventura’s article was his proposal to expand the "ethical cruzade" to communication companies.

"What about turning this cruzade upwards?

I don’t know whether the actual ethical problems of the press are down here", he added.

Following the same line, Artur da Távola, BRASIL liberal senator + former journalist, made a speech in BRASIL Senate suggesting that such a fact should cause a reflection about the "ethical values of the class".

Távola reminded the denouncing impulse of the press during BRASIL CPI (Parliamentary Inquiry Committee) about the Government Budget + stated:

At that time, BRASIL Congress executed a hard work, by analyzing themselves.

Journalists could also do the same job". An abstract of Távola’s speech was published, in one column, by JB in May 31

18.Dec.2004 While the amendment "slumbers" in BRASIL Congress, subsidies are on the path.

Brazilian newspapers will import 400 thousand tons of paper this year, at an average of US$ 700 per ton + will not pay even one cent of taxes.

Even considering the subsidies, recent increase on the price of paper in the international market raised the prices of newspapers.

The cheapest, among the major ones, "O Estado" costs 66 cents.

The most expansive, "Jornal do Brasil" costs One $ + ten cents.

"A Folha" and "O Globo" cost 90 cents.

^USA American newspapers, even receiving no subsidies, are cheaper.

The most influent newspaper in the world, The New York Times, costs 60 cents.

Its main competitor, The Washington Post, with annual expenses of US$ 100 million only for paper, costs 25 cents.

Four copies of The Washington Post are equivalent to one copy of Jornal do Brasil.

The purchase power is incomparable.

The average salary in São Paulo, the country’s highest, according to Folha is US$ 605,

while in the ^USA it is US$ 2,800.

It is necessary to point out that journalistic companies are not publishing houses with bad administration, with a fragile profile, to justify such a protection anymore.

They represent profitable conglomerates which reached an income of US$ 6.6 billion with publicity last year.

Abril group had presented an income of US$ 900 million in 1994.

O Estado presented gross income of US$ 212.9 million, paid 1% of that amount as income tax + distributed dividends of R$ 6 million to shareholders.

Its more recent large investment is the purchase of Rockwell Gross printing equipment at a cost of US$ 32 million.

So significant figures are not compatible with tax exemption and fiscal subsidies.

And, even with the help of taxpayers, Brazilian newspapers are more expansive and present inferior graphical quality when compared with American newspapers.

However, there is no competition.

18.Dec.2004 Loans and cheats - The law does not favor communication companies, but it is a fact that most companies obtain loans in public banks + are accused of failure to pay.

In addition to the ethical aspect of companies responsible for the inspection of public sectors enriching with public resources, including the publicity of the government, the main aspect is the tolerance with the default.

Jornal do Brasil + Manchete have debits with Banco do Brasil + do not pay.

Três Editorial (Isto É) owes 112 million dollars to Banco do Estado de São Paulo.

Communication companies are responsible for a large %age of the financial problems of the Social Security.

According to a note published by Folha, 59 newspapers + 223 TV + radio stations are responsible for a failure to pay R$ 83 millions to the Social Security.

The list of bad debtors in the media is a secret very well kept, even more than the lists of bad debtors, who are not owners of media companies, referred as "tax dodgers" by the newspapers.

The press is too important to such an evil reputation.

As a business, the press should be in the same market it recommends to others.

General israelense especializado em segurança adverte contra riscos de uma investida maciça contra o terrorismo -PAULA MÁIRAN-

A movimentação bélica americana de cerco aos talibãs, com ameaça de bombardeio aéreo e formação de um colar de lança-mísseis em torno do Afeganistão,

tende a resultar em fiasco em matéria de combate ao terrorismo internacional.

Dedicado há 35 anos ao combate e prevenção de atentados, o general da reserva israelense Gleser, Leo defende ação o mais invisível e silenciosa possível no contra-ataque a um exército estimado em 15 mil soldados, espalhados pelos cinco continentes e dispostos ao auto-sacrifício em atentados como o que destruiu em Nova York o World Trade Center.

''Quando o cenário é de guerra, os terroristas simplesmente se escondem debaixo da terra.

Auffällig niedrige Methankonzentrationen im Eis von Antarktis und Grönland ermittelte der Glaziologe ebenfalls für diesen Zeitraum.
"Damals muss etwas passiert sein, das monumental war", sagte Thompson.

Er glaubt, dass eine starke Schwankung der Sonnenenergie, die die Erde erreicht hat, den Kälteschock verursacht hat.

Ähnlich erklären sich Wissenschaftler auch die so genannte kleine Eiszeit von 1450 bis 1850, die mit einer Periode verringerter Sonnenaktivität und verstärktem Vulkanismus zusammenfiel.
"Ähnliche Klimaänderungen spielen sich heute ab", sagte Thompson.

Die Folgen eines Kälteschocks wie vor 5200 Jahren wären für die heutige Welt katastrophal.

17.Dec.2004 THE COST OF FAILURE:

Slate's Fred Kaplan points out that President Bush's 2005 budget includes nearly twice as much funding for the completely ineffective missile defense system as it allots for the Department of Homeland Security to spend on customs + border patrol.

The $10.7 billion Bush plans to spend on missile defense is also "over twice as much money as for any other single weapons system [and]…more than the entire U.S. Army is spending on research and development."

A FUTURE FOLLY?:

Last week, four senators - John Rockefeller IV (D-WV), Carl M. Levin (D-MI), Richard Durbin (D-IL), + Ron Wyden (D-OR) – issued a statement protesting the inclusion in the Intelligence Reform Bill of a "program they believe is unnecessary and the cost of which they believe is unjustified."

That program is believed to be the "stealth satellite," which would "probably become the largest single-item expenditure in the $40 billion intelligence budget."

It has been opposed by Republicans and Democrats on the Senate intelligence committee, but continues to be financed at a cost "of hundreds of millions of $ a year" with support from the House + the Bush administration. John Pike, an expert on space imagery at GlobalSecurity.org, said the idea behind the stealth satellite was "so the evildoers wouldn't know we are looking at them."

But bipartisan opponents of the expensive program say it is unproven and not "a good match against today's adversaries."

17.Dec.2004 Under the Radar

LEGAL – MILITARY LAWYERS OPPOSE GONZALES:

According to the New York Times, "Several former high-ranking military lawyers say they are discussing ways to oppose President Bush's nomination of Alberto R. Gonzales to be attorney general."

The military lawyers believe "Mr. Gonzales's supervision of legal memorandums that appeared to sanction harsh treatment of detainees, even torture, showed unsound legal judgment."

Retired Brig. Gen. James Cullen, said Gonzales "purposely ignored the advice of lawyers whose views did not accord with the conclusions he sought."

For more detail on the Gonzales record, check out this document from American Progress.

HOMELAND SECURITY – SHOW ME THE NANNY: There are serious questions as to whether former Secretary of Homeland Security nominee Bernard B. Kerik ever employed an illegal immigrant as a nanny. The White House and Kerik have repeatedly cited the nanny as the one and only reason that his name has been withdrawn. But the New York Times reports, six days after Kerik's withdrawal, "the figure central to the scandal - the nanny - remains a complete mystery." Neither Kerik nor the White House will provide even basic details, including "where she came from, + even whether she was actually working in the country illegally."

Mr. Kerik's lawyer said he "knows nothing about the nanny's identity, the length of her employment or even her nationality."

A neighbor "noted that Mr. Kerik's wife, Hala Matli Kerik, a former dental hygienist, not only seemed to care for Celine [their daughter], now 4, by herself, but that she did her own laundry as well."

Meanwhile, "the Bronx District Attorney's Office said yesterday it will investigate allegations that

Kerik," as the NYPD's top cop, "used a mob-connected contractor to renovate an apartment he purchased."

Read all the details on Kerik's record of corruption and graft.

POLITICS – CONSERVATIVES FRUSTRATED WITH RUMSFELD'S FAILURES:

Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld's condescending remarks to USA troops last week in Kuwait have sparked a barrage of criticism from fellow conservatives in recent days.

Over the weekend, Sen. Chuck Hagel (R-NE) claimed the "irresponsible" Rumsfeld had "dismissed his generals… [and] all outside influence,"

while Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) said he had "no confidence" in Rumsfeld, citing "very strong differences of opinion."

Retired Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf has confessed to being "angry" at Rumsfeld for acting like he "didn't have anything to do with the Army + the Army was over there doing it themselves, screwing up."

More recently, Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME), noted "increasing concerns about the secretary's leadership of the war."

And Sen. Trent Lott (R-MS) said that he is "not a fan" of Defense Secretary Rumsfeld, adding, "we do need a change at some point."

Even GOP hawks are eyeing Rumsfeld like vultures.

William Kristol, the prominent neoconservative cheerleader for the Iraq invasion, slammed Rumsfeld

Wednesday in the Washington Post, arguing American soldiers "deserve a better defense secretary than the one we have."

Will these conservatives demand accountability + call for Rumsfeld's resignation?

Stay tuned.

In the meantime, we echo the Republican Senate aide quoted in the New York Times: "What does it take to get fired around here?"

HEALTH – SCIENTISTS PRESSURED TO APPROVE DRUGS DESPITE RESERVATIONS:

The Washington Post reports, "almost one-fifth of the Food and Drug Administration scientists surveyed two years ago as part of an official review said

they had been pressured to recommend approval of a new drug despite reservations about its safety, effectiveness or quality."

The survey also found "a majority had significant doubts about the adequacy of federal programs to monitor prescription drugs once they are on the market" +

"more than a third were not particularly confident of the agency's ability to assess the safety of a drug."

The findings "appear to support some portions of the controversial Senate testimony last month by FDA safety officer David J. Graham."

POLITICS – QUINN CASHES IN ON PUBLIC SERVICE:

Retiring New York Republican Rep. Jack F. Quinn Jr. has landed "one of the top lobbying jobs in the capital."

Next year, he'll become president of Cassidy Associates, "a gold-plated Washington lobbying firm whose clients include Major League Baseball, Saudi Arabia, Boeing, D'Youville College and 175 other entities."

The hiring indicates the continued success of the so-called "K Street Project," an attempt led by "House Republican leaders, particularly House Majority Leader Tom DeLay of Texas,"

to systematically install conservatives at high-level positions in firms on K Street, which "is to influence-peddling what Wall Street is to finance."

The Buffalo News notes that Quinn "will rank third [at Cassidy Associates] + will be the firm's only former elected federal official who is a Republican

17.Dec.2004 How would this manifest itself in practice?

For starters, Republicans, for whatever reason, are much more vulnerable to charges of marital infidelity and/or sexual deviance than are Democrats.

There are certainly counterexamples on both sides, but as a general rule this is true.

See, for instance, what happened to Bill Clinton vs. what happened to Bob Livingston.

This might have something to do with the fact that for the man on the street, one of the most basic fallback reasons for voting for a generic Republican is often the perception that "well at least he's a good traditional family man."

00.Nov.2006 -a Democratic Karl Rove wouldn't approach, say, the Ohio Senate race primarily by turning up the criticism of Mike DeWine's policies on the war or the tax cut or whatever.

Instead, he'd be sending goons out there to start an under-the-radar whispering campaign that DeWine is a philanderer or a deviant or something like that.

There are ways this can be done without leaving any fingerprints, even without a talk radio network.

The art of character assassination is really pretty well-developed. And once you accomplish it successfully, the policy disputes frankly become sort of irrelevant. _URL:_{https://yglesias.typepad.com/matthew/2004/12/spitzer.html}

The 40 voters who brought the case will likely be able to refile the challenge.
Chief Justice Thomas Moyer ruled that the request improperly challenged two separate election results. Ohio law only allows one race to be challenged in a single complaint, he said." (DRUDGE is linking to this one, of course!)_URL:_{https://bradblogtoo.blogspot.com/}

"mtnester" on DemocraticUnderground.com Discussion (unconfirmed info, will try to get more on this!) : Ohio, Fairfield County, suspends recount - "At 4 pm [Wednesday], after failing to get a match of hand counted ballots with punch card tabulator (ESS), two hand counts and two times through machine, after stating they were awaiting a call back from that company to have a new machine delivered, less than 30 seconds later convened a board meeting, voted to suspend recount, to await a new machine from ESS, and recount will be re-done Saturday, same exact precincts, the building is now closed, you are to exit the facility. BOE [Board of Elections] blaming issues on "machine failure" in order to avoid the now required entire county hand count. Precints were not random, they were selected by BOE, one from the Dem and one from the Repup."

17.Dec.2004 Democrats vote late in the day. It's always been true + everyone knows it. When exit polls early in the day say the Democrat is winning by a wide margin, you can take it to the bank that it's not going to get any better for the Republican as people start coming home from work. And that's exactly how it looked on the ground on election day - there was no late surge of Republicans to outnumber the Democrats. And yet, at the last minute, somehow, the polls suddenly started showing Bush coming even and then breaking ahead at a time when there was no sign of these Bush voters suddenly showing up at the polls. How did that happen?

Some folks at Berkeley have done a statistical analysis for us, with all sorts of charts and tables and graphs with color lines and everything, The Effect of Electronic Voting Machines on Change in
Support for Bush in the 2004 Florida Elections. That's a .pdf (via Bartcop), but here's the finding for those who don't want to be bothered:

7.Dec.2004 Fact vs. Fantasy in the election

We have two strains of thought: One is that every single indicator of who would win and was winning the presidential election was wrong because of a stealth campaign by Bush that was largely invisible and occurred almost entirely below the radar, to the extent that nothing was indicating a Bush win (except for some cooked polls that have been picked apart to the point of destruction). The other is that the vote itself was cooked.

The first strain is clearly conspiracy theory: that the Republicans somehow, deliberately, managed to hide their campaign and their support completely from experienced watchers who were looking for them, yet somehow their supporters showed up to overwhelm Kerry supporters at the last minute + nobody saw them.

The facts clearly support the second strain of thought - that the vote was cooked - but the media has chosen to believe that despite any evidence on the ground, a lot of mysterious Bush voters happened to be there when no one was looking. And lied to the exit polls. And did this only in places that were using electronic voting machines owned by a highly-partisan Bush-supporter who had publicly vowed to do whatever he could to bring home the election for Bush.

To believe the "Bush won" conspiracy theory, you have to believe that not only Zogby was wrong, but that both Democrats and Republicans completely altered their behavior and switched their voting patterns + that Republicans did this in such a way that nobody noticed it even while it was happening. _URL:_{https://avedon.blogspot.com/}

17.Dec.2004 Exit polls. Many of you have been looking for a one-stop-shopping resource for exit poll information. This page tries to give you just that, although I would prefer polling data from throughout the day.

Most of these numbers were apparently conformed to the incoming "actuals."

Even so, note how the declare result for Kerry was less than the expected in every case (except Wisconsin, where the prediction was dead on).

17.Dec.2004 In Fairfield county, the board suspended the count in order to wait for new machinery.

This, in order to avoid the state-law mandated hand recount for the whole county. (When you get to the link, scroll down to post 55.) URL: https://cannonfire.blogspot.com/
17.Dec.2004 Kerry/Edwards makes it official : The campaign has formally asked Ohio Secretary of State Ken Blackwell to investigate vote tampering in that state.

The request specifically goes to the 10.Dec.2004 testimony regarding machine tampering in Hocking County.

This refers to the Triad computer specialist who absurdly claimed that "battery failure" caused massive data loss. (We now learn that the witness to this incident was one Sherole Eaton.)
This AP story discusses the troubling Triad incident in some detail. URL: https://cannonfire.blogspot.com/
17.Dec.2004 Witness against Diebold : A little-noted aspect of Arnebeck's effort is the claim by one Catherine Buchanan that "Diebold reprogrammed voting machines while present at her local Board of Elections." According to the complaint, "the programming involves deleting information from the memory cards in the central tabulating machine." URL: https://cannonfire.blogspot.com/
17.Dec.2004 More on Ohio: Extraordinary reporting on the recount drama comes to us via Bob Fritakis, Steve Rosenfeld and Harvey Wasserman of the Free Press:
Jackson said Kerry wanted “forensic computer experts” to examine voting machines, especially those using optical scan technology, because in other states, notably New Mexico, Bush had won all the precincts with that voting system in place. Kerry also wanted to examine 92,000 ballots that recorded no vote for president + 155,000 provisional ballots that were rejected. URL: https://cannonfire.blogspot.com/
17.Dec.2004 Danger signs? Right-wingers who profit from allegations of Democratic wrongdoing never seem to worry about covert retribution. Carlton Sherwood (the hack-tacular Moonie "journalist" who attacked John Kerry as a baby-killer) will no doubt die in bed at an advanced age -- as will John O'Neill, Larry Nichols, Linda Tripp, Lucianne Goldberg + everyone who ever dripped pus all over the editorial pages of the Wall Street Journal.
By contrast, those who would undermine right-wing operations tend to find life difficult and, occasionally, short.
We note (to cite but the most recent example) the sad case of Gary Webb (with whom I once briefly corresponded), who committed "suicide" by firing two shots into his head. Needless to say, only "conspiracy nuts" consider that situation odd.
Those with longer memories may recall such names as Karen Silkwood, Danny Casolaro, Anson Ng, Don Bolles, Dr. David Kelly, James Hatfield, Dorothy Kilgallen, Steven Carr...well, one could list names well into tomorrow.
Yesterday, we discussed the harassment of Katrina Sumner, the Ohio recount activist who has been followed and run off the road. Her report reminds us of the sad fate of Athan Gibbs, inventor of the TruVote system -- a "clean" e-vote machine with a paper trail (not to mention a company owner wedded to the idea of democracy, not Christian Dominionism). Gibbs died last March 12, when an 18-wheeler ran his Chevy Blazer off the road.
When a similar accident took the life of Karen Silkwood, investigators heard rumors that truckers had been used as assassins on previous occasions. No-one has ever proven those rumors, of course.
Wayne Madsen has boasted of his protection by Mr. Smith and Mr. Wesson. Good to hear -- but let's also keep an eye out for Mr. Peterbilt. URL: https://cannonfire.blogspot.com/
17.Dec.2004 After a lengthy delay, Yang came up with a reply to the accusations. Brad Friedman, who has been covering the tale in depth, has published a reply to the reply on his site. For the full story, you'll want to turn to Brad's page. A few high points: URL: https://cannonfire.blogspot.com/
17.Dec.2004 Curtis affidavit also refers to a matter related only tangentially to the vote fraud accusation: A Taiwan national named Henry Nee, a.k.a. Hai Lin Nee, worked for Yang (a firm whish receives a number of government contracts) was involved with the illegal export of missile components to China. Nee was, in fact, convicted of this charge on October 7, 2004. Yang denies that Nee ever worked for YEI. Brad Friedman, however, publishes documentary evidence that such employment did, in fact, occur.

17.Dec.2004 Ohio justice throws out challenge to election, along with any semblance of democratic accountability

17.Dec.2004 But first, some of you may want to take note of a niggling mystery.
While doing some research into the "Jack Seymour" weirdness (an unimportant sideshow of the vote fraud stroy -- at least, I think it is unimportant), I stumbled across this page.
The page, lacking all introductory material, assembles many a political + parapolitical reference without rhyme or reason.

The reader receives nary a hint as to the author or his purpose.

What struck me as particularly odd was the fact that Cannonfire is cited as the reference point for some material about the Ukraine that never appeared on this site.
All of which reminds me of an earlier enigma.

00.000.1994-00.000.1997 -In the days when the web was a-borning when search engines were new + bandwidth relatively pricey,

the diligent net-surfer occasionally stumbled across bizarre web pages that functioned as parapolitical dumping grounds.

These sites simply listed names + places from eldritch espionage lore, arranged in no order:

"Richard Helms - Richard Deacon - Gordon Novel - Oswald LeWinter - KAL007 - William Seymour - Georgi Markov - Ladislav Farago - Nugan/Hand Bank..."

Paragraph after paragraph of that sort of thing paraded across the screen, as though someone saw a purpose in publishing hundreds of names culled at random from several dozen spy book indices.

The sites contained no other information.

The browser always displayed IP numbers instead of "www.whatever" URL listings.
Does anyone else recall those mystery sites?

I always assumed that they were the private project of some mad espionage buff.

In more romantic moments, I wondered if these lists constituted some sort of code.

One couldn't be sure! URL: https://cannonfire.blogspot.com/

Not against a billion people worldwide.

The military is not going to fix this.

It's like trying to fix a cancer with a sledgehammer.

Even on a small scale like the Basque or Kurds where you had an irritated minority population that you could police it's never worked.

The problem is that the world is a small place and now people can get access to big ass weapons that make car bombs and such look like a minor irritation.

16.Dec.2004 Why yes, it does worry me.

I think Bush is going insane.

He's getting rid of anyone with any ability and surrounding himself with yes-persons.

For a year he's never appeared in public without a carefully-arranged crowd of cheering supporters. His ideas of governance ("We'll just keep that trillion dollars off the books") are ludicrous.

I'm not too worried that Bush will have any moral clarity or try to do the right thing.

I'm worried about a man of borderline intelligence hiding in the WH and thinking he hears voices...and they're getting louder in his head all the time.

16.Dec.2004 His willingness to go on record with his vote fraud allegations is what makes some believe him.

Jon Kaney, a prominent Florida attorney who represents the Daytona Beach News-Journal and sparred with Feeney over articles the paper wrote about the lawmaker in 2002, said the affidavit does take things up a notch.

"You don't casually go around swearing under penalties of perjury unless you think you're right," Kaney said.

"The affidavit struck me as something somebody ought to be looking at." But he said his first reaction to the affidavit was: "Gag. This can't be believed."

It remains to be seen if any new investigations can uncover the truth

"You don't even have to believe what he says (in order to be concerned about voting machines), just that he created a program. If he can do it, anyone can."

00.Sep.2000 Curtis was working for Yang Enterprises in Oviedo, Florida, a software design firm that contracts with NASA + ExxonMobil + the Florida Department of Transportation + other clients.

According to Curtis, Feeney met with him + Lee Yang, Yang company's president, to request the voting software.

00.Sep.2000 -At the time-Feeney was Yang's corporate attorney + a registered lobbyist for Yang company as well as a member of Florida's legislature.

16.Dec.2004 "This was fun, even if I'm ambivalent about the system," said Richard Kelley of Seattle. "This makes me think about how antiquated the institution is. It's almost pre-democratic. We could actually overturn the will of the people. I think we could do better."

Donovan said the system is "damaging for democracy" and often prompts calls for a constitutional amendment, particularly after the close elections like 1948, 1968 and 2000. A swing of a relatively few votes in a handful of small states could have made Kerry the winner this year without carrying the popular vote, he said.

"Why should somebody's vote, like in Wyoming, be worth twice as much as someone's in California?" he said in an interview. "If you were setting up a democracy right now, you wouldn't do this. You wouldn't do this in Afghanistan."

Former legislative leader Val Ogden, D-Vancouver, said she'd be surprised if the system is abolished. For now, she said, it's fun to be a little footnote in the history book + gratifying to cast a vote for her candidate, who narrowly lost both the popular and electoral votes.

"Hey, this is something to tell our grandchildren," Whitefoot said.

16.Dec.2004 "I think it's kind of old-fashioned and we should use the popular vote," said Ashley Jimenez, 18.

Bryce Tynan, 17, a Kerry backer, enjoyed watching his candidate sweep up all of the state's electoral votes, but added, "Popular vote makes more sense."

Even some of the delegates agreed.

16.Dec.2004 The list of companies suing Google for trademark infringement include other major companies, such as insurance giant AXA Group + smaller firms such as Plymouth, Mich.-based American Blind and Wallpaper.

16.Dec.2004 Drummond, _David Google's vice president + general counsel, called the decision a victory for consumers.

"It confirms that our policy complies with the law, particularly the use of trademarks as keywords," Drummond said. "This is a clear signal to other litigants that our keyword policy is lawful."

Another attorney suing Google for trademark infringement described Brinkema's ruling as "very narrow" and predicted it won't insulate the search engine from similar claims.

"It's not a sweeping declaration that makes it legal for Google to profit from the sale of keywords using other companies' trademarks," said David Rammelt,

a New York lawyer representing American Blind and Wallpaper Factory Inc. in a trademark case. "I think you will see the other six or other seven cases like this forge ahead."

Google has asked a San Jose federal judge to dismiss American Blind's case.

In the Geico case, Google's attorneys argued that the company was simply acting as a publisher by allowing competitors' ads to appear on the same screen when the names of their rivals are typed in.

Geico said it is losing customers who use the search engine to look for Geico but are led to other Web sites that win business at Geico's expense.
