McCain Shirt Gets Man Arrested

A big celebration in south Philadelphia over the election of President Obama led to the arrest of a man for wearing a McCain / Palin Shirt in the middle of a crowd that was cheering for the Obama victory.
While it does appear to be a gross violation of the freedom of speech I also think the cops were trying to avoid a breakout of violence against this man.

Princeton Report Says Voting Machines Easily Hacked

With a few days to go before the presidential election, a report has been released by Princeton University and other groups that sharply criticizes the e-voting machines used in New Jersey and elsewhere as unreliable and potentially prone to hacking.

The 158-page report, which was ordered by a New Jersey judge as part of an ongoing four-year legal fight over the machines, says the e-voting machines can be “easily hacked” in about seven minutes by anyone with basic computer knowledge. Such hacking activity could enable fraudulent firmware to steal votes from one candidate and give them to another, the report said.

The controversy involves the Sequoia AVC Advantage 9.00H direct-recording electronic (DRE) touch-screen voting machines made by Oakland, Calif.-based Sequoia Voting Systems.

The report comes amid news stories in at least three states - West Virginia, Texas and Tennessee — where voters have told local election officials that they believe the e-voting machines they used tried to switch their votes to other candidates.

The AVC machines can be hacked by installing fraudulent software contained in a replacement chip that can be installed on the main circuit board, according to the report. Such a part replacement is very difficult to detect, it noted.

Andrew Appel, a Princeton University computer science professor who is one of the authors of the report, said that such security vulnerabilities cause doubts about the accuracy and reliability of the machines.

The plaintiffs, a group of public interest organizations, argue in their lawsuit against the state of New Jersey that the machines should be discarded because they can’t meet state election law requirements for security and accuracy. State officials who back the machines argue that the machines are adequate for the job.

The lawsuit is expected to go to trial in January, but in the meantime, the court allowed the Princeton report to be released to the public.

The report gives details on how the machines could be manipulated by someone who wanted to change the results of the election, and it strongly criticizes the designs and security of the devices.

At the same time, Appel said that while such a scenario is possible, “it doesn’t mean that somebody is dishonest enough to do it.”

“Even so, it’s an unpleasant place to be in to have to use these machines that are so hackable,” Appel said. “Early next week, I’m going to have to go out and cast my vote on one of these machines.”

The problem, according to the report, is that there are many opportunities in the storage, distribution and deployment of the DRE machines where an unauthorized person could manipulate them and not be detected.

“Somebody could have hacked it at any time” during those stages before an election, Appel said.

Michelle Shafer, a spokeswoman for Sequoia Voting Systems, said in an e-mailed response that the company emphatically denies the conclusions of the Princeton report.

In a 19-page response posted on Sequoia’s Web site, the company argues that the researchers who contributed to the report removed factory security hardware from the tested machine before they performed their analyses. The Sequoia response also says that an operator panel cover was not in place when the testing was conducted, which would have made a potential attack “far less likely to succeed before they are stopped, or at minimum, detected.”

The Sequoia response also harshly criticizes the researchers as having an “inflammatory tone” about the company’s DRE machines, while “editorializing on the wonders of paper ballots and optical scanning” as an alternative and more trusted method of voting. The company said the Princeton report includes “numerous factual errors and cases of intellectual dishonesty.”

Appel defended the report’s conclusions.

“There’s no perfect technology for e-voting, but I think the consensus of computer scientists is that precinct-counted, optically scanned paper ballots is the best method” in terms of reliability and accurate recount auditing, Appel said. “The voter fills out a paper ballot that is scanned and counted in their precinct. You have your numbers right at the close of the polls, with two independent records — the computerized numbers and the pile of paper ballots in the sealed ballot box.”

Can Diebold Voting Machines be Trusted

This incredible and inexcusable garbage about the possibility that the Diebold voting machines may be dropping votes, or that they are in any way faliable enough to make the difference between a win and a loss of an election has been going on for years now.
Diebold should have been thrown out of the contract immediately after their second strike, especially considering the importance of the very serious “game” of voting.

A voting system used in 34 states contains a critical programming error that can cause votes to be dropped while being electronically transferred from memory cards to a central tallying point, the manufacturer acknowledges.

Is Barack Obama an Islamic Sympathizer

Conspiracy theories make for interesting novels when the storyline is not so absurd that it can grasp our attention. ‘The Manchurian Candidate’ and ‘Seven Days in May’ are examples of plausible chains of events that captures the reader’s imagination at best-seller level. ‘What if’ has always been the solid grist of fiction.

Get yourself something cool to drink, find a relaxing position, but before you continue, visualize the television photos of two jet airliners smashing into the Twin Towers in lower Manhattan and remind yourself this cowardly act of muslim terror was planned for eight years.

How long did it take Islam and their oil money to find a candidate for President of the United States? As long as it took them to place a Senator from Illinois and Minnesota? The same amount of time to create a large Muslim enclave in Detroit? The time it took them to build over 2,000 mosques in America? The same amount of time required to place radical Wahabbist clerics in our military and prisons as ‘chaplains’?

Find a candidate who can get away with lying about their father being a ‘freedom fighter’ when he was actually part of the most corrupt and violent government in Kenya’s history. Find a candidate with close ties to The Nation of islam and the violent muslim overthrow in Africa, a candidate who is educated among white infidel Americans but hides his bitterness and anger behind a superficial toothy smile. Find a candidate who changes his American name of Barry to the muslim name of Barak Hussein Obama, and dares anyone to question his true ties under the banner of ‘racism’. Nurture this candidate in an atmosphere of anti-white American teaching and surround him with islamic teachers. Provide him with a bier, racist, anti-white, anti-American wife, and supply him with muslim middle east connections and islamic monies.

Allow him to be clever enough to get away with his anti-white rhetoric and proclaim he will give $834 billion taxpayer dollars to the muslim controlled United Nations for use in Africa.

Install your candidate in an atmosphere of deception because questioning him on any issue involving Africa or islam would be seen as ‘bigoted racism’; two words too powerful to allow the citizenry to be informed of facts. Allow your candidate to employ several black racist Nation of islam Louis Farrakhan followers as members of his Illinois Senatorial and campaign staffs.

Where is the bloodhound American ‘free press’ who doggedly overturned every stone in the Watergate case? Where are our nation’s reporters that have placed every Presidential candidate under the microscope of detailed scrutiny; the same press who pursue Bush’s ‘Skull and Bones’ club or ran other candidates off with persistent detective and research work? Why haven’t ‘newsmen’ pursued the 65 blatant lies told by this candidate during the Presidential primaries? Where are the stories about this candidate’s cousin and the Muslim butchery in Africa? Since when did our national press corps become weak, timid, and silent? Why haven’t they regaled us with the long list of socialists and communists who have surrounded this ‘out of nowhere’ Democrat candidate or that his church re-printed the Hamas Manesto in their bulletin, and that his ‘close pastor friend and mentor’ met with Middle East terrorist Moammar Gaddafi, (Guide of the First of September Great Revolution of the Socialist People’s Libyan Arab Jamahiriya)? Why isn’t the American press telling us this candidate is supported by every Muslim organization in the world?

As an ultimate slap in the face, be blatant in the fact your candidate has ZERO interest in traditional American values and has the most liberal voting record in U.S. Senate history. Why has the American main stream media clammed-up on any negative reporting on Barak Hussein Obama? Why will they print Hillary Rodham Clinton’s name but never write his middle name? Is it not his name? Why, suddenly, is ANY information about this candidate not coming from main stream media, but from the blogosphere by citizens seeking facts and the truth? Why isn’t our media connecting the dots with islam? Why do they focus on ‘those bad American soldiers’ while Islam slaughters non muslims daily in 44 countries around the globe? Why does our media refer to Darfur as ‘ethnic cleansing’ instead of what it really is; slims killing non muslims! There is enough strange, anti-American activity surrounding Barak Hussein Obama to peek the curiosity of any reporter.

WHERE IS OUR INVESTIGATIVE MEDIA!?

A formal plan for targeting America was devised three years after the Iranian revolution in 1982. The plan was summarized in a 1991 memorandum by Mohamed Akram, an operative of the global Muslim Brotherhood. ‘The process of settlement’ of Muslims in America, Akram explained, ‘is a civilization jihad process.’ This means that members of the Brotherhood must understand that their work in ‘America is a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and sabotaging its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God’s religion is made victorious over all other religions.

There is terrorism we can see, smell and fear, but there is a new kind of terror invading The United States in the form of Sharia law and finance.

Condoning it is civilization suicide. Middle East Muslims are coming to America in record numbers and building hate infidel mosques, buying our corporations, suing us for our traditions, but they and the whole subject of Islam is white noise leaving uninformed Americans about who and what is really peaceful. Where is our investigative press? Any criticism of Islam or their intentions, even though islamic leaders state their intentions daily around the globe, brings-forth a volley of ‘racist’ from the left-wing Democrat crowd.

Lies and deception behind a master plan - the ingredients for ‘The Manchurian Candidate’ or the placement of an anti-American President in our nation’s White House? Is it mere coincidence that an anti-capitalist run for President at the same time islamic sharia finance and law is trying to make advancing strides into the United States? Is it mere coincidence this same candidate wants to dis-arm our nuclear capability at a time when terrorist muslim nations are expanding their nuclear weapons capability? Is it mere coincidence this candidate wants to reduce our military at a time of global jihad from muslim nations?

Change for America? What change? To become another ‘nation of islam’?

Wake up!!! Any person in this country who votes for “muslim Barak Hussein Obama”, has got to have more wrong with them than a loose screw.

You have heard his comments. He would not wear a United States Flag pin, because he did not want to be on the side of the United States. He refused to honor the United States flag as it passed by. ( I’m sure you have seen the picture.) He left the black “So called Church” that teaches HATE AMERICA” only because he was pressured by his campaign supporters. He wants to destroy our military, so it can’t protect us from muslim terrorists. He does not want America to drill for oil, because it will compete with the muslim countries.

If you claim to be an American, and you vote for “muslim Barak Hussein Obama”, I truly hope and trust that you live long enough to see the damage you will be doing to this country, and get to personally feel the Islamic knife on your throat.

YOU WILL HAVE EARNED IT!

IF YOU STAY AT HOME ON ELECTION DAY, IT WILL BE A VOTE FOR “THE JIHAD CANDIDATE”
