John Bolton sure gets around

Nobody disputes that the Bush Administration is a tight knit affair with all participants belonging to neo-con, or new neoconservatives. Florida 2000 voting was a fiasco with recount showing graphicly how punching voting system was inadequate. There is a iconic picture of John Bolton, he of UN fame, who is checking the voting staff doing recount. It was a complete and VERY public spectacle. Of course other systems worked perfectly well. But the hype facilitated lots of money being made available for voting reform. The result is manipulators dream. The Diebolt company produced voting machines that do away with paper ballot. Hence there is no audit trail. On top of that they can be hacked into almost at will. Buying an election will become so much cheaper!
