Republican vs. democrat

Remember how I said, oh, all of two days ago, that overturning black-box voting should be non-partisan ? Well, a lot of things should be non-partisan. The bill is stalled in committee .

Although the bill has attracted 61 cosponsors — all Democrats — it is still in the House Administration Committee. The bill has yet to attract any Republican support, according to Holt’s staff.

Coincidentally, the voting machine companies are Republican owned and donate to Republican campaigns.

Chris Floyd wrote in the Moscow Times :

It’s dangerously naive to believe that such a gang, coming to power in such a fashion, will allow a legitimate electoral contest to take place next year. They have too much to lose. They haven’t expended so much effort — and so many thousands of innocent lives — to build this vast engine of repression and profit only to turn it over to Howard Dean or John Kerry, just because the stupid American people say so.

Jeez, what a raving paranoid loon. Why does he hate America so much?

Say, remember when Bush said :

If this were a dictatorship, it’d be a heck of a lot easier, just so long as I’m the dictator.
