Does The U.S. Use Torture?

The Administration says “we do not torture”. So why veto a bill prohibiting torture? After years of lying to the entire world that the Guantanamo prison contained “774 of the worlds most dangerous terrorists”, they are now just bringing 6 of the victims to trial! The large majority of the rest have been quietly released. The media has been silent, of course lawsuits will follow, probably in International Courts also. If any more proof is needed that they have no case against any of the Gitmo detainees, the following news report from February 12, 2008 should suffice, “The Bush Administration asked the Supreme Court on Thursday to limit judges authority to view evidence against detainees at Guantanamo Bay”. The reason Bush doesn’t want judges to see the evidence is because it consists of a few confessions obtained under torture. In the former U.S system of justice, no longer honored, confessions obtained by torture is self-incrimination and used to be impermissible as evidence under the Constitution. We have come a long, wrong way……

Sequoia Voting Systems Fraudulent Machines

According to a book called “Hacked:High Tech Election Theft in America”, the electronic voting machines are a “crooked system of computer vote fraud in America”. On Super Tuesday, 2008, no less than the governor of New Jersey himself, was forced to wait 45 minutes before he could cast his vote, due to some computer malfunction. Then it gave his vote to someone else other than the candidate of his choice! He was upset enough to appoint a couple of Princeton University professors, Ed Felton and Andrew Appel, to investigate Sequoia Voting Systems and its failing machines, which was later found to misreport voter turnouts. In March, Sequoia, which is one of the largest e-voting machines manufactures in the United States, retaliated by threatening to sue Felton if he didn’t back off. They claimed that an inspection of their product would violate their agreement with the counties. In April, the courts ordered the questionable machines impounded.
