His ideology is like yours though. That's his downfall, his only flaw. Still, he was a formidable adversary to debate with. He wasn't a political hack like those who spout the leftist venom here now. He believed in the things that you do as strongly as you do, only he was far better at posting his arguments.

When this board was young, he was one of the first to moderate. He never let his ideology get in the way of doing his job. That is to say, he didn't simply pick on those users who supported conservative views. He was very fair.

The above example was how he used his intellect. You try to think up a name to call Bush and you come up with Dumba$$. His name for Bush was Chimpy McFlightsuit. Even you admitted you liked it. I do too. It's not as trite or mundane as yours.

He was as contrarian as you are about Bush, he was just better at it.

Hey, to get us back on topic... I have this question for you or the rest of the poll weasels on this thread:

You've got all your eggs in this basket and sitting pretty as long as the poll stays low, right? So, what happens if it gets better? Does the poll suddenly become meaningless?

If the polls flip and that's what the American people want, so be it. It's not gonna happen though. It might uptick a little, but Bush has done too much damage to this country to totally flip in his favor.

My stance stays the same regardless of the polls, Bush is a lousy president. I live in an area were the majority of the people are Bush supporters and that hasn't influenced my opinion about Bush either. That's why your sheeple theory is ridiculous.

TB,
Nice to see you again!

Tell me, did Brokeback mountain remind you of the good old days back in the UK or something?

So now that you're here, maybe you care to settle the bet we had where you bet that Bush wouldn't beat Kerry in the election.

..now, about those inpenetrable and infallable Diebold machines, hacked one yet?

Bush has proven one of his fellow dictators absolutely correct. I believe it was Josef Stalin who said something to the effect that voters don't decide elections, those that count the votes do....Nothing could be more true about bush, diebold and the selection in 2004...

Nice to see you too!! Not

Posted on Tuesday, December 13, 2005 - 03:42 pm:
UPDATE Dec. 16: Volusia County (FL) joins Leon in dumping Diebold. Due to contractual non-performance and security design issues, Leon County (Florida) supervisor of elections Ion Sancho has announced that he will never again use Diebold in an election. He has requested funds to replace the Diebold system from the county. On Tuesday, the most serious “hack” demonstration to date took place in Leon County. The Diebold machines succumbed quickly to alteration of the votes. This comes on the heels of the resignation of Diebold CEO Wally O'Dell, and the announcement that stockholder's class action suits and related actions have been filed against Diebold by four separate law firms. Further “hack” testing on additional vulnerabilities is tentatively scheduled before Christmas in the state of California.

Finnish security expert Harri Hursti, together with Black Box Voting, demonstrated that Diebold made misrepresentations to Secretaries of State across the nation when Diebold claimed votes could not be changed on the “memory card” (the credit-card-sized ballot box used by computerized voting machines.

A test election was run in Leon County on Tuesday with a total of eight ballots. Six ballots voted "no" on a ballot question as to whether Diebold voting machines can be hacked or not. Two ballots, cast by Dr. Herbert Thompson and by Harri Hursti voted "yes" indicating a belief that the Diebold machines could be hacked.

At the beginning of the test election the memory card programmed by Harri Hursti was inserted into an Optical Scan Diebold voting machine. A "zero report" was run indicating zero votes on the memory card. In fact, however, Hursti had pre-loaded the memory card with plus and minus votes.

The eight ballots were run through the optical scan machine. The standard Diebold-supplied "ender card" was run through as is normal procedure ending the election. A results tape was run from the voting machine.

Correct results should have been: Yes:2 ; No:6

However, just as Hursti had planned, the results tape read: Yes:7 ; No:1

The results were then uploaded from the optical scan voting machine into the GEMS central tabulator, a step cited by Diebold as a protection against memory card hacking. The central tabulator is the "mother ship" that pulls in all votes from voting machines. However, the GEMS central tabulator failed to notice that the voting machines had been hacked.
The results in the central tabulator read:

Yes:7 ; No:1
