ROVE NAMED IN ELECTION FRAUD CONSPIRACY by Mark Crispin Miller

'Daily Voting News' For July 18, 2008

Also, a whistleblower has stepped forward and stated that a patch was installed in two Georgia counties in 2002 before the Governor and Senatorial elections. He says, in part, that a "computer patch was installed in person by Diebold CEO Bob Urosevich, who flew in from Texas and applied it in just two counties, DeKalb and Fulton, both Democratic strongholds. The source states that Cox [then Georgia Secretary of State Cathy Cox] was not privy to these changes until after the election and that she became particularly concerned over the patch being installed in just those two counties."

LOVELAND, OHIO – Lieutenant Colonel David Volkman, who teaches at Loveland High School and himself a veteran of the war in Afghanistan, has sent Loveland Magazine a list of ten, sailors, soldiers, and marines who are currently serving in war zones. He asked if there was interest in people in the community “adopting a troop” and sending along care packages to these Loveland High School graduates.

If you are interested in sending along some food, snakes, and everyday comforts of home (Loveland), please send an e-mail and you will receive a list of suggested items for a care package, shipping instructions, and a name and military address of a deserving hometown boy or girl.

Editor's note: Col. Volkman says, "Please make sure people send snacks, not snakes? (maybe you better counsel your copy editor). '...some food, snakes, and everyday comforts of home...' Funny....."

Gore Calls for Carbon-Free Electric Power

WASHINGTON — Former Vice President Al Gore said on Thursday that Americans must abandon electricity generated by fossil fuels within a decade and rely on the sun, the winds and other environmentally friendly sources of power, or risk losing their national security as well as their creature comforts.

“The survival of the United States of America as we know it is at risk,” Mr. Gore said in a speech to an energy conference here. “The future of human civilization is at stake.”

Mr. Gore called for the kind of concerted national effort that enabled Americans to walk on the moon 39 years ago this month, just eight years after President John F. Kennedy famously embraced that goal. He said the goal of producing all of the nation’s electricity from “renewable energy and truly clean, carbon-free sources” within 10 years is not some farfetched vision, although he said it would require fundamental changes in political thinking and personal expectations.

“This goal is achievable, affordable and transformative,” Mr. Gore said in his remarks at the conference. “It represents a challenge to all Americans, in every walk of life — to our political leaders, entrepreneurs, innovators, engineers, and to every citizen.” Read on...

Advance fee loan warning

OHIO DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE WARNS OHIOANS
TO BE ON GUARD AGAINST ADVANCE FEE LOAN ADVERTISEMENTS

The Ohio Department of Commerce’s Division of Financial Institutions is warning Ohioans to be on guard against newspaper advertisements that promote the availability of loans but fail to identify the name of the company and its location.  The ads only provide a toll-free telephone number.

Advertisements have recently been placed in the Cincinnati Enquirer and possibly other newspapers throughout Ohio promoting the ability to borrow up to $50,000 at eight percent interest for personal, auto and debt consolidation loans.  The ad, which contains a fictitious Ohio registration number, says, “[b]ad credit is ok” and provides a toll free number.
