Young Turks: Interview with Steve Levy about unreliable voting machines
Check out this Young Turks interview with Steve Levy of Newsweek. Levy is the author of a recent article on security problems associated with Diebold touch screen voting technology. The most important point he makes in the interview and in the article is that the voting public will never trust touch screen technology. He also makes a great point about the need to maintain public control of public elections.
I teach Communication Studies (First Amendment, Classical Rhetoric, Civic Engagement, Rhetoric of Rock Music) at UW Oshkosh. Served two terms on Oshkosh City Council. Originally from Brooklyn, NY.

Wow. I never got to the thing you suggested - I was side-tracked by he "Gay Cure" thing. The guy beating up his "mom" is really scary. What am I talking about, the whole hing is sick.
So though unrelated to your post the Marriage Ban Circus will be starting up and it's good to take a look at the wackos driving the movement.
