To the person that stated Romney's son and the voting machines


Posted: Nov 2, 2012

You stated, "I'm slowly resigning myself to the possibility that the voting machines (that one of his sons has a financial interest in) will be rigged"

 from this message:

http://general.mtstars.com/324027.html

 

Guess you're bummed out now? It's been debunked by snopes.com. 

http://www.snopes.com/politics/romney/votingmachines.asp

In fact, the voting machines in Ohio are having trouble.

Pick any article.Now, who's "rigging" (according to you) the voting machines? Really - nobody. It's coming down to voter error and/or calibration error in most cases, but this is why paper ballots are safer..old-fashioned but safer.

Aha! So, you Do know you can check Snopes. Excellent. - Good for you, BackwardsTypist. NM

mostly on emails but when I did a search for the message about Romney's son and the voting machines, Snopes was the first thing that came up to debunk that crap. Not like others on here that refuse to believe serious stories and/or fail to research on their own.

I also know those of you who hit the "dislike" button no matter what I post (and will do so after they read this post) would not be able to dislike my first post unless they are truly stalking me and in doing so are just proving my stalking point.

Have a nice day.:-)

Well, good. More respect for people's time would - plummet those "dislikes," BT. nm

sites. I don't have to defend the links but just to prove you won't read links posted by some of us because you have a one-sided mind, here's just a few links I use when posting:
NBC, CBS, ABC, MSNBC, Forbes, Bloomberg, the AP, Reuters, CNBC, Politico, FactCheck, USA Today, Youtube, CSpan, and newspapers from the city or state where the news is happening. I even posted an article from Sports Illustrated today.

I do post some Fox STATIONS but NOT FOX NEWS. Betcha don't know the difference. Let me clear that up for you. Fox STATIONS are usually local stations and have regular programming just like other networks. They don't have Cavuto, O'Reilly, Hannity, Greta, or Stossel to name a few. Guess you didn't know that.

Evidently you think above sites are all conservative and evidently you think places like Moveon.org, Mother Jones, and Media Matters are THE honest-to-goodness truthful spots and they don't lie. LOL

You can easily verify the above sites that I post from by checking my former messages but I know you won't because you'd rather just put me down as you do other posters that don't agree with you. In fact, don't know why I bothered with this message 'cause you won't read it, just hit dislike and move on to the next message I post.

Romney Rocked! Even CNN Stated Oct 03, 2012

Would Like Some Advice Regarding My Son Voting SmNov 02, 2010

Because Voting In Ohio Just Isn't Hard Enough..smAug 10, 2012
Ohio voting just got a little harder, not because early voting has been cut down, and not because of new ID restrictions. That's right. Republicans are doing everything in their power to ensure a win in Ohio. The latest tactic works on a county by county basis. County by county it is decided whether or not to extend hours at the voting sites. Each county has a commission comprised of two dems and two pubs. You would think this would be a good thing to extend hours in this state right? ...

In Response To Below Re: Why Are You Voting For TrumpJul 24, 2016
It is painfully obvious that President Obama used the tools he had available in order to do something. Unfortunately, the only thing republicans (the ones in control of congress) know is dictatorship - they know nothing about real life and how one has to compromise. I do it all day, every day in my life or I would not have a job let alone a husband or relationships. When you lose at a game or an election, you then have to play fair. They have acted like spoiled little losers and it makes me asha ...
