Of Course They Did

I remember people telling me I was crazy to think the election was stolen. I have never wavered from that conviction, and the more I learn, the more convinced I am:
A leading cyber-security expert and former adviser to Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) says he has fresh evidence regarding election fraud on Diebold electronic voting machines during the 2002 Georgia gubernatorial and senatorial elections.
Stephen Spoonamore is the founder and until recently the CEO of Cybrinth LLC, an information technology policy and security firm that serves Fortune 100 companies. At a little noticed press conference in Columbus, Ohio Thursday, he discussed his investigation of a computer patch that was applied to Diebold Election Systems voting machines in Georgia right before that state’s November 2002 election.
Spoonamore is one of the most prominent cyber-security experts in the country. He has appeared on CNN’s Lou Dobbs and ABC’s World News Tonight, and has security clearances from his work with the intelligence community and other government agencies, as well as the Department of Defense, and is one of the world’s leading authorities on hacking and cyber-espionage.
In 1995, Spoonamore received a civilian citation for his work with the Department of Defense. He was again recognized for his contributions in 2004 by the Department of Homeland Security. Spoonamore is also a registered Republican and until recently was advising the McCain campaign.
Spoonamore received the Diebold patch from a whistleblower close to the office of Cathy Cox, Georgia’s then-Secretary of State. In discussions with RAW STORY, the whistleblower — who wishes to remain anonymous for fear of retaliation — said that he became suspicious of Diebold’s actions in Georgia for two reasons. The first red flag went up when the computer patch was installed in person by Diebold CEO Bob Urosevich, who flew in from Texas and applied it in just two counties, DeKalb and Fulton, both Democratic strongholds. The source states that Cox was not privy to these changes until after the election and that she became particularly concerned over the patch being installed in just those two counties.
When I used to teach non-traditional students, having been a non-traditional student, I would always admonish them before exams (community college computer science, though the advice covers all bases) to never second guess your answers. Go with what you know.
We have not had a legitimately elected government in this country for the last 7.5 years, and no one seems very interested in doing anything about it.
Yes, I will write-in Hillary no matter what the ballot will look like on the Election day. Please go on, Hillary!
Didn’t really get who the “fraud” was to support. McCain or Obama. I hardly think Obama would have needed unjust methods to win. McCain however would have needed that, or an act of God.
America is changing again, to meet the circumstances of the evolving world around her! This metamorphosis will include a transfer of American Wealth to Asian markets, Already well underway, with huge amounts of American dollars exchanged for “Yuan” and invested in the Shanghai stock market. For these former Old Southern Families, and a few New York Jewish families and Yankee Doodle dynasties it is less important for them that the republicans have control in the now raped and dying America they once exploited with great skill. They, like the whites of South Africa, of Rhodesia, the uber-rich Brits, some of Austria’s finest families and a few less know concentrations of wealth in the world, have moved on to greener pastures, to China, where slavery is still legal, and they are in familiar territory. We, the American people, the shoes on the ground, so to speak, have been sold out! We have become a “White Elephant” to these Uber-rich folk! and will suffer grave consequences for that! The fact that money influences elections in America is not new or shocking, not as new or shocking as what is to come! Detroit City, a desolate ruin! Atlanta, drying up and facing catastrophe without great rains! New Orleans, devastated, first by Katrina, then by and uncaring republican government, now facing cash crises, and not rebuilt, but neglected! California, considering going into the dope business, just to pay their taxes, Goddamn! New York, smirking at the rest of America after the Wall Street bail-out, expecting the same in the near future to save its ass, not likely, China won’t lend it again! We now have an upper-middle class, driving imported BMW’s Mercedes, Honda’s and the like, eating imported foods, drinking imported wines, and living very high on the hog! Who in hell are they? Where do they get the huge salaries they spend? Why do they have so much, when hoards of common folk starve? Why in the so-called - greatest democracy on earth, is there such a gap? Why does crime pay better than factory work? Where did the factory work go? Only after the great republican depression, far from over, and still undermining American life, is over, and the dust has settled, will we know what this time of change brings to us, the proletariat, the shoes on the pave, the bones in the beds of working America.
