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.

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...

Yes, stupid poor white bigots did get Trump elected

Many are trying to claim that relatively uneducated, largly poor, most rural, almost entirely lilly white people aren't responsible for trumps election. They often claim that a broad spectrum of people who hated immigration and had overblown terrorism fears weren't addressed by Hillary so they went to trump. There right in that Hillary didn't run a campaign run on fear mongering. They also often try to make number jump through hoops. The median income of trump voters was $72,000/year The median income of all Americans is $56,000/year. Tell me what you think that means? Some are claiming it means that large numbers of voters who were not poor voted for Trump. To me it just means he did get almost all the votes above $250k and the poor white and rural votes pull he number downward to $72k . Of course everyone in the investor class voted for Trump. The investor class votes Republican all the time. But there are not enough of them to win an election. it IS the poor wh...

Inside the last minute of zero hour, Republicans tap out and cry "UNCLE!" on Obama care repleal!!

   By Jack Warner The fifteen million Americans that got insurance they didn't have before, and the ten million more that would have been kicked off plans, should be giving the sigh of relief heard round the world. What a thrill it was when watching C-Span this afternoon headed for that 3:30 vote when I saw someone walk to the speaker dais and hand a note to the Pro tempore at 2:29 and I realized they were pulling the bill and Republicans were spared being forced to vote and having an opponent run against that vote no matter which way it went. Their greatest fears would have been Republican primary challengers. Now they get to crawl back in there dark dank cave or holes in the ground waiting until Trump's "no amount of money is enough money" greedmongers call them out again to shill a "Tax Reform" bill. I've heard that in  some obscure ancient language "Tax" means "New" and "reform" means "Gulfstream G600" (N...
