Freeps suddenly concerned about voting machines...LOL!!
For those who don't dare to tread over to the dark side, here are a few highlights...

Here's part of the article that was posted in Freeperville...

Diebold reveals 'key' to e-voting?
CNET ^ | January 25, 2007 | Anne Broache


Posted on 01/25/2007 1:55:46 PM PST by antiRepublicrat


Imagine if all it took to get inside widely-used Diebold electronic voting machines--perhaps with malicious intentions, such as installing tally-altering software on its memory card--was a photograph of the key to the system's physical lock.

Thanks to a little help from the e-voting outfit itself, it may actually be that simple, a security researcher from Princeton University suggested this week.

<snip>

And the responses...

Does anyone really think Diebold has a clue about security?

e-Voting sucks. I refuse to use an e-vote machine.

I read about this yesterday, certainly reminds you of watching Keystone Cops or the Three Stooges. How does a company so inept, manage to make billions of $$$$$$$$$$$$??????

Death penalty for those convicted of conspiracy to commit vote fraud would do a lot to prevent such attempts.

I'm happy with my fill in the oval, paper ballot.

And this one I put in just for laughs....

To: NonValueAdded
The real fraud is in hand counted ballots that democrats have been committing fraud with for decades. (For example, Florida 2000 and Cuyahoga County Ohio just recently). This whole Diebold thing is a red herring. Also did you noticed that for years the dems have claimed fraud, with the exception of 2006, when they won?

8. I guess I should have been more clear.
7 years too late to see that there's a problem.

3. As soon as Republicans think they
could be the victims of fraud those machines will be instantly gone.

4. We DID claim fraud in 2006.
There were at least two Congressional races stolen. As for the others, we just got out and voted in such great numbers that we overwhelmed their theft attempt.

5. The Repugs and Freepers never seem to get it.
Swords can cut both ways or what can make you can also break you.

7. It's one thing all "true believers" can support...
If you honestly think that your worldview will "carry the day" you MUST support honest vote counting.

And this is true no matter how screwy your worldview is.
