Sam Shane on MSNBC was rocking!

[NightOwwl]

He interviewed 2 people about potential problems with Diebold. His final questions was "Do you think we should be using electronic voting machine that don't give you a receipt." Easy question, right?

Guest1: (Republican) starts blabbing about states right.
Shane: "You aren't answering my question, yes or no?"
Guest1: I believe everyone should have a fair...
Shane: (cuts him off) "I want a yes or no."
Guest1: Again starts blabbing about states rights.
Shane: (cuts him off) OK, you aren't going to answer my question. Guest2, can you answer yes or no?
Guest2: (Democrat) Answers no and explains why.
Shane: Guest #1, I'll give you one more chance. Yes or no.
Guest1: With the potential of Democrats stealing the election
Shane: (angry, interrupts with smack down) We are NOT going to get into stealing elections...that was not my question.

Ouch! On a side not, Sam Shane used to be a local reporter in Sacramento. I liked him back then, too.

1. Saw that. He was hammering.

And closed: "well I doubt our viewers feel any more secure about the voting machines after this 4 minutes."

2. Do Conservatives really believe State rights trump individual voting right

That don't sound like the get the government off my personal rights to me...it don't sound conservative at-all.

3. They support states' rights until those states go for a Democrat.

Funny how Florida's state courts got the heave-ho, once upon a time, when they wanted the vote-counters to keep working...

4. Sam Shane is a good guy but

he is basically a news reader there. Like all news readers they repeat what the producer wants said.
