A smoking gun?

If this story is true (and I believe it is), in a just world, it would turn this government upside down and everyone in the Bush campaign would be led out of the White House in handcuffs. Of course, we don't live in a just world, we live in a country in that world that's run by jingoistic, theocratic freaks, one in which people who think that voting machines should record votes as they were cast and that votes should be counted accurately as "sore losermans."

An exhaustive investigation has turned up a link between current Florida Republican Representative Tom Feeney, a customized Windows-based program to suppress Democratic votes on touch screen voting machines, a Florida computer services company with whom Feeney worked as a general counsel and registered lobbyist while he was Speaker of the Florida House of Representatives, and top level officials of the Bush administration.

According to a notarized affidavit signed by Clint Curtis, while he was employed by the NASA Kennedy Space Center contractor, Yang Enterprises, Inc., during 2000, Feeney solicited him to write a program to "control the vote." At the time, Curtis was of the opinion that the program was to be used for preventing fraud in the in the 2002 election in Palm Beach County, Florida. His mind was changed, however, when the true intentions of Feeney became clear: the computer program was going to be used to suppress the Democratic vote in counties with large Democratic registrations.
