Haley Barbor on FAUX: "Arn-nold is bringing CA back into the fold".

[Joanne98]

They're going to STEAL California. I know alot of people laugh at this but I really believe this is the plan. Look what's happening to Shelly. He fights the machines, he gets investigated for campaign fraud and now his budget is frozen by ARN-NOLD.
This is what I think is going to happen. I so pissed off I can't see.

1. Can you imagine if California goes bushie on election day

You thought you saw some protests over the week-end. I don't think it will happen, they might try, but I don't see them getting away with anything. Kerry has a huge lead here in the polls ( I know I know take polls with a grain of salt )

If California goes red on election day, watch out for the lawsuits, protests, recalls. Californians will make a statement.

14. After what Bush and Co. did to CA during the energy crisis?

If they go for Bush, they deserve to get him. I am just too through!!

3. A lot of Californian's that I know are voting absentee

They're afraid of the electronic machines and want to make sure their votes are counted. I don't know the law in CA as far as the absentee votes getting counted though.

Yes, it is scary and my friends are absolutely convinced they are going to manipulate things so CA goes to Bush. They're thinking it will be made to look close, but with winner takes all that the 55 electoral will be handed to Bush.

5. Republicans try this gambit every year

Remember 2000 when Bush kept goin out there trying to make it look like the Republicans had a chance, and Rove was on TV saying they wre going to take it. It's a ploy...all about demoralizing the enemy. Rather than trying to take California, they outta be concerned about losing Virginia and Missouri.

13. We should be worried about all three!

In 2000 CA did not have paperless e-voting. No way will * win CA unless its stolen for him.

6. Here's the article

SF Chronicle, today:

SACRAMENTO
State freezes $17.5 million in voter funds
Finance director awaits audit of Shelley's spending

The Schwarzenegger administration said Friday it would freeze spending authorization for $17.5 million in federal voter funds until an audit determines if Secretary of State Kevin Shelley has properly spent previously distributed funds.

...

Schwarzenegger's finance department said it would allow for spending of $17.6 million to modernize voting machines and "buy out" old punch-card systems, but that it would withhold the remaining $17.5 million for so-called "discretionary" purposes -- including election office and poll worker training, disability and language access and electoral system mandates.

8. The central tabulator

Consumer Report Part 1: Look at this -- the Diebold GEMS central tabulator contains a stunning security hole
Submitted by Bev Harris on Thu, 08/26/2004 - 11:43. Investigations
Issue: Manipulation technique found in the Diebold central tabulator -- 1,000 of these systems are in place, and they count up to two million votes at a time.
By entering a 2-digit code in a hidden location, a second set of votes is created. This set of votes can be changed, so that it no longer matches the correct votes. The voting system will then read the totals from the bogus vote set. It takes only seconds to change the votes, and to date not a single location in the U.S. has implemented security measures to fully mitigate the risks.

10. Arnold Bobblehead :

Let's Nazify this country !

[henslee]

12. If only America could see Carnival in Rio, a travel doc. with Arnie...

Availble online on VHS. In it, Arnold talks how how Americans like breasts but that he is an ass man and that he is fond of mullattos. He dances the bump and grind, wears makeup and teaches a native Brazillian girl English words like "suck" and "bite" while sticking a carrot stick in and out of her mouth. No I am not making this up. It is unfuckingreal and available in VHS online.

11. If the Pukes succeed in keeping the machines paperless,

CA will be stolen.
