Voting machine company invested in by who?

Hart InterCivic makes the voting machines being used in Hamilton County, population 833,00. *

Hart’s five corporate board members are executives of HIG Capital, a global private equity firm that made what it called a “significant” investment in Hart last year. Four HIG executives (Tony Tamer, John Bolduc, Douglas Berman and Brian D. Schwartz) have been identified as Romney bundlers by independent watchdog groups such as the Sunlight Foundation. HIG employees as a whole have donated $338,000 to the Romney campaign this year, according to Open Secrets.

And an investor in the company that invests in voting machines? Tagg Romney!! (reality stranger than fiction?)

Couldn't be a problem there could there? sigh.

Murder by health care greed

October 1, 2013 at 2:11pm US Congressman Pat Tiberi is a lying son of a bitch. There in NOT broad bi-partisan support repeal of the medical device tax. If he thinks there is, let him introduce a bill and see where it goes. A one year shutdown is NOT a compromise on defunding the program. It's still a gun to the head power play that would have them back again making an end runaround how we pass laws. There will never be a clean funding bill again if we concede to this. And the delay in law given to businesses with more than 50employees is a concession given them, and the laws administrators, more time to get ready to meet reporting rules. And now for them say “what’s good for big business is should be good for all Americans” is the reward the administration gets for yielding to pressure from big business. For t...

Attached to the USS Handcock

I guess you could say I was attached in a way because my dad flew off the Hancock during this time. His jacket has that emblem on the back of it. Until recently I thought when he said he was among the first Pilots to take off with steam catapults that he was talking about World War II. But recently I discovered that the Randolph was the first carrier to use steam catapults. Maybe they use some different kind of catapult in late World War. But you can see in the footage here is of the Catapult test sleds. You also see that in some of the footage here the Skyraider being launched by the catapult off a different carrier and it's wheels are in the air before they hit in the end of the deck. There's footage from the Randolph that shows F9F cougars being catapult launched and tipping down towards the sea as they gained airspeed followed by an unassisted Skyraiders rumbling down the deck with its wheels in the air before it gets to the end. LOL maybe you could let let a Skyraider Lum...

To all Apollo moon landing hoaxers, deniers, and cranks.

Used to be that if you needed information first you went to periodical publications like newspapers or magazines then your only other choice was libraries where you found drawers full of 3” by 5” index cards you had to slog through to find what you’re looking for. Or you go to the research desk where the person there would either know off the top of their head where to find it, or they would slog through the catalogs for you. It was hard for average people to check the accuracy of things they read. Then through the mid to late 1990’s libraries and other just about every other thing in the world became networked. From then if you really wanted to know the facts all you had to do was point click and type into search engines. That’s it. Virtually everyone born after 1985 or so has had all the information in the world at their fingertips. And yet through seemingly pure laziness many or most have squandered it!!! The world can be made safe from misinformed people and purpos...
