The Hillary-McCain-Diebold connection

Mark Penn’s client, United Technologies, is now trying to buy Diebold.

From BusinessWeek:

“United Technologies Corp. on Wednesday said it is committed to its $40-per-share bid for Diebold Inc. and is prepared to begin due diligence immediately, despite the company’s rejection of the offer.

On Sunday, United Technologies… made the unsolicited bid to acquire Diebold, a manufacturer of ATMs and voting machines. The offer was a 66 percent premium over the North Canton, Ohio, company’s closing price Friday.”

United Technologies, from its origins in 1925 as Pratt & Whitney Aircraft, has consistently relied on the beneficence of those in power. Like other military contractors, UT has accrued private profits at public expense; so much so during WW2 that then-United Technologies president Eugene Wilson described the company’s fortunes as “unconscionable profits”.

I wonder why United Technologies would be interested in owning Diebold’s hackable voting machines. Hmmm.

Tony, in a lear jet.

Well, Obama is supposed to be the new Blair.

Heh.

So many blanks in the resume, and no one is answering any questions.

Do we need to depend on Larry Sinclair?

It makes me think they’re trying to hide something incredibly damaging in regard to Obama’s past, and it is naive for his handlers, and the stupid “democratic party leaders” to pretend it won’t be an issue. TPTB know.

It’s simply a matter of when it will be released.

And btw, this is why the democrats lose elections.

As opposed to facing up to Obama’s weaknesses as a candidate,(he’s toast, he will not win) and the fact republicans are starting to clean the floor with him, as they planned, the democratic leaders spin themselves into further chaos, by defending a weak and fatally flawed Obama, trying to cover up, denying the reality of what is happening.

Why?

Did their teen age kids tell them to?

It won’t get better.

Where is experienced Hillary on this “Telecom Immunity” issue? Well, she has talked about a fillibuster to stop them getting immunity but in the senate she skipped the vote

Agreed, and this is something that needs to be examined, too.

But it still does not negate the arguments against Obama, and Auchi, and Rezko, the corruption, and the damage, horrifying in scope.

Clinton is not implicated, as least at this juncture.

Finger pointing doesn’t cure the problem, as you partisans know damn well you’re not going to stop them. The hypocrisy involved of playing with dead bodies like chess pieces, is UGLY, INSULTING, and BARBARIC.

Well, no, Chris, it has to be stopped because it is politically destabilizing, not in the better interests of anyone, despite what they may think.

In addition, it is morally repugnant, why wasn’t anything done?

Let’s find out, and make sure it doesn’t happen again.

That’s the whole point of Congressional hearings, improving the system, for the long term.

That’s why the 9.11 commission was such a sham, nothing was really done to improve the system, assign blame to the RIGHTFUL parties, hold Bush responsible for not reacting to the PDB, finding out why he and Cheney failed to protect the country.

It was the UN pushing that no genocide was occurring, and like the Jewish Holocaust FDR ignored (remember???), without that public acknowledgment little could be done.

The same was played out in Palestine. Bosnia. Somalia, and now the Dafur crisis.

Finger pointing doesn’t cure the problem, as you partisans know damn well you’re not going to stop them. The hypocrisy involved of playing with dead bodies like chess pieces, is UGLY, INSULTING, and BARBARIC.

For shame!! >:(

The Sun-Times gets it after Susan! I’ll put this on the Powers thread too.
