Diebold

Today pity posted this story (if you're not a registered Sun user, you can logon using gel44 as the Username and dottie as the Password). My reaction was to picture some Oliver Stone scenario with made guys and freelance hackers and CIA-trained anti-Castro Cubans all conspiring to pull the guts out of these machines and reverse-engineer them to automatically vote W. in every precinct. Once they've figured out their fiendish plan they chuck the machines out the back of a seedy Chevy van near some backalley dive in Charm City before heading down to Fort Meade for a victory celebration at NSA headquarters.

I love the fact you can "buy one on Ebay." Holy fucking shit. As if it weren't bad enough that Diebold is financially tied into the Bush syndicate and the big cheese of the company loves him some W.
