Reports of votes flipping on the 100% unverifiable ES&S iVotronic touch-screen voting machines used in Carroll County, Arkansas, have led to a call for removal of the machines. Who could have predicted it?
Vote-Flipping on ES&S Touch-Screens in Carroll County, AR, Reported by County Clerk Candidate, Circuit Court Judge
The mix of states holding elections offer a mix of electoral systems --- from a majority of voters using 100% unverifiable touch-screen machines in use in KY and PA, to a compilation of touch-screen and paper ballot systems run by a company with a disastrous reliability record in AR, to the black hole of all mail-in voting in OR (and in HI).

Republican senator blocks higher liability cap on oil spills
Democrats' move to increase the maximum fine for oil spills to $10 billion is foiled by Sen. James M. Inhofe.
President Obama denounced Republicans on Tuesday for "playing special-interest politics" after a GOP senator thwarted a Democratic effort to raise the liability cap for oil spills to $10 billion.
Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) was seeking the unanimous consent of the Senate to move forward on the Big Oil Bailout Prevention Act, which would retroactively boost the legal cap of $75 million on how much companies must pay for economic damages.

But Sen. James M. Inhofe (R-Okla.) blocked the effort, saying it would make drilling too expensive for smaller companies. "Big Oil would love to have these caps there so they can shut out all the independents," he said, echoing the argument of Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), who halted an identical move last week.
The legislative maneuvering came as federal officials expanded the no-fishing zone to nearly a fifth of the Gulf of Mexico. The closure now totals 45,728 square miles, extending southeast from the blowout site.

Sounds as though it's confirmed that Allen Stanford was the CIA's Shadow Bankster for their black ops - and they have him as drugged-up as need be to ensure he is never sane enough to testify against them.

ReplyDeleteAllen Stanford was a frequent VIP visitor to "Stanford Field," the name purchased for the naming rights to the International Polo Club, Palm Beach. He was a buddy of the owner of that facility, John Goodman, who made his own news today:

"When CBS News tried to reach the beach, covered in oil, a boat of BP contractors with two Coast Guard officers on board told us to turn around under threat of arrest."
Apparently the sleazy media won't take this one too easily:

Would anyone care to argue whether or not this represents fascism?
No,.. no,.. this is Democratic/Hyper Capitalism at its very best,....
We must be very careful here! There is nothing the establishment would like better then to divide police officers and the public. They wish to divide EVERYBODY because it works to their advantage. The police usually try to do their jobs, which usually involves lying, cheating and obfuscation. We've all done it to protect our jobs.
ReplyDeleteThat being said, there were some damned obvious violations of common decency.
Always remember:
ReplyDeleteThe cops don't make the rules, the congress does. Unconstitutional laws are the result of the mighty pen of the corrupt and unconstitutional congresspeople who are now above the law and can retroactively revoke lawbreaking.
