Critics of the Diebold touch-screen voting machines turned their attention Wednesday from the machines themselves to the computers that will tally the final vote, saying the outcome is so easy to manipulate that even a monkey could do it.
And they showed video of a monkey hacking the system to prove it.
In the minute-long video produced by Black Box Voting [ http://www.blackboxvoting.org/ ], Baxter the chimp is shown deleting the audit log that is supposed to keep track of changes in the Diebold central tabulator, the computer and program that keeps track of county vote totals.
Black Box Voting founder Bev Harris said the demonstration shows that the system — which will be used in more than 30 states, including Maryland — is dangerously inadequate when it comes to stopping election fraud.
President Bush and his surrogates are taking their re-election campaign into dangerous territory. Mr. Bush is running as the man best equipped to keep America safe from terrorists - that was to be expected. We did not, however, anticipate that those on the Bush team would dare to argue that a vote for John Kerry would be a vote for Al Qaeda. Yet that is the message they are delivering - with a repetition that makes it clear this is an organized effort to paint the Democratic candidate as a friend to terrorists.
When Vice President Dick Cheney declared that electing Mr. Kerry would create a danger "that we'll get hit again," his supporters attributed that appalling language to a rhetorical slip. But Mr. Cheney is still delivering that message. Meanwhile, as Dana Milbank detailed so chillingly in The Washington Post yesterday, the House speaker, Dennis Hastert, said recently on television that Al Qaeda would do better under a Kerry presidency, and Senator Orrin Hatch, the chairman of the Judiciary Committee, has announced that the terrorists are going to do everything they can between now and November "to try and elect Kerry."
This is despicable politics.

Fuelled by Coke and Tennessee sippin' whiskey, George will fall off the sofa onto the sleeping dog below. The dog, startled, bites his face.
Having 'taken-out' that Pretzel factory (imminent threat) he announces that spousal rape 'should only be used as a last resort' - Laura has that hunted, far-away look again.
In the last debate he will take the body of a dead dog from behind the podium and slap Kerry across the face with it, saying, 'Now, who's tough'.
This action will endear him to the millions of Americans watching. A landslide.
In an attempt to make the American people feel uneasy about a transition of leadership in the midst of war, Bush and co. will probably announce an invasion of Iran or North Korea and simultaneously perpetuate the illusion of fear by suggesting through a manipulative, hypnotic and well marketed campaign that Americans are in grave danger from terrorists.
...or something to that extent....I imagine.
...peace out...

Apart from the arrest/death of old Osama or some of the other Bush bogeymen the most important announcement will be that Donald Rumsfeld is actually a woman and should henceforth be known as Donnaleeza.
This attempt to show that beneath the hideous megalomaniacal murderous facade lies a somewhat softer (although quite ugly) side will be a sure vote winner for those who actually get the opportunity to vote.
will be that Indymedia will predict something correctly.
It will be discovered that the real reason Dick Cheney opposes abortion is that, as a Satanist, he needs a constant supply of babies for sacrificial and snacking purposes.
The october surprise will be,George Bush will announce he will take the fight to the hurricanes overseas so americans don't have to fight them at home.
sadly, this aint no joke....
