Kennedy, meanwhile, is preparing to up the ante on those he believes abetted the GOP's electoral theft. In July, the outspoken attorney plans to file "whistle-blower" lawsuits against two leading manufacturers of electronic voting machines. According to Kennedy, company insiders are prepared to testify that the firms knowingly made false claims when they sold their voting systems to the government -- misrepresenting the accuracy, reliability and security of machines that will be used by 72 million voters this November.

well, black clouds rolling in from the southwest...more rain and thunder.
wheee.
"This is a unique way to try and stop these vendors," Kennedy tells Rolling Stone. "In both cases, our whistle-blowers are familiar with security problems that were well known by the vendors but concealed from election officials during the bidding process. Because we're relying on 'inside' knowledge, it is a far more frightening prospect to the company than a traditional lawsuit might be. And if we prove our case, we will hit the corporations the only place they feel it: in their pocketbooks."

Hmm - things to do in Denver when you're fat- you may have noticed the radio station sponsoring it was KYGO, the redneck country station. From a recent article regarding the new Dixie Chicks album:
In Denver, KYGO program director Joel Burke also was bothered by the lyrics. KYGO tested the song, and while Burke said listeners reacted favorably, he isn't ready to add it to the playlist.
"The ticked-off factor is beginning to subside," Burke said. "There is an appetite that I'm beginning to see for the first time in nearly three years that people are interested in the Dixie Chicks again.

Banned Bands
Posted by: quinnskylark on May 18, 2006 1:50 PM [Report this comment]
Back in the very early 90s, before the band Chumbawumba was a one-hit-wonder, they expressed strong anarchist/anticommercial beliefs. Believe it or not, their politics were so overt, that the U.S. govt denied them the opportunity to enter country as a band. So they came in as tourists, individually...and then toured the country borrowing other people's instruments and playing in strange and unusual venues. I saw two of their shows in L.A. And still remember them as one of the best bands I've ever seen.
I'm sorry, but who the hell is Star Jones and why should I care?
