    CLAMORING?

    http://content.usatoday.com/communities/theoval/post/2012/07/poll-only-half-say-obama-is-a-christian/1?csp=Dailybriefing#.gmail

    I WANT TO KNOW - WHY THERE CONTINUES TO BE SUCH A "CLAMORING" ABOUT "THIS" - WHEN THERE ARE SO MANY, MANY, MANY "OTHER" THINGS TO "FIX"?

    PERHAPS?

    http://content.usatoday.com/communities/gameon/post/2012/07/voula-papachristou-olympic-ban/1?csp=sports#.gmail

    There seems to be a more rapid "concern" about many things, in our Earth Planet - perhaps, "we" are getting tired of the "same old thing", and want "us" to "try better", PERHAPS!

    No Wanting - No Seeing!

    Papa Foote Belleville, MI http://www.nytimes.com/2012/07/27/science/earth/strong-storms-threaten-ozone-layer-over-us-study-says.html?_r=1&nl=todaysheadlines&emc=edit_th_20120727

    Good Morning,

    The "Weather" seems much more interesting to our Earth Planet, as we find our scientific ability growing with bigger "jumps" - I love this stuff, even if it is concerning, because if we don't "want" to "see", we wont be able to try to make it better!

    ABSENT VOTING - Use Only The US Postal Sevice!

    ABSENT VOTING - BE SURE TO ONLY USE THE US POSTAL SERVICE - NOTHING ELSE, INCLUDING E-MAIL, MAY NOT BE COUNTED FOR YOU!

    By Paul B. Southerland, AP

    "...A lone voter marks her ballot at Precinct 111 in Oklahoma City, Okla., on June 26...".

    By Martha T. Moore, USA TODAY

    Updated: 07/25/2012 12:21am

    States trying to make it easier for troops overseas to vote have set up voting systems that are vulnerable to hacking when they allow voters to return ballots online, via e-mail, or Internet fax, says a state-by-state report to be released today.

    The report, Counting Votes 2012, by the Verified Voting Foundation and Common Cause Education Fund, says all states should require overseas ballots to be mailed because even faxed ballots can't be independently audited. "They're trying to do a calculus and make it easy for the voter, and they may not realize the great risk they're putting those votes at," says Pam Smith of the Verified Voting Foundation, a group that advocates accuracy and verifiability of election returns.

    The report also rates states on their ability to accurately count votes, and it warns that progress away from paperless voting ”which leaves nothing to recount in a dispute” has been halted by the lagging economy. That's a concern as the nation heads for what is likely to be a very close presidential election in November.

    The report, an update of a 2008 study, says the least-prepared states to handle voting system problems are Colorado, Delaware, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and South Carolina. Top marks for preparedness go to Minnesota, New Hampshire, Ohio, Vermont and Wisconsin.

    The Power Within Us!

    http://www.thedailybeast.com/cheats/2012/07/23/holmes-lawyer-family-supports-him.gmail

    I have been thinking about "this", and the other "earlier" moments in "history" - some, single "events", some much longer, that are terribly bad for many folks in our Earth Planet!

    Now, we usually think for a while, then settle back into our own little pathway, focusing on our own daily things - saying something like "...I guess we were lucky this time..." or something else!

    So, perhaps, not just the "leaders" will try again for something better - but all those other folks (like you and me) will also "try again" for something better!

    The "Power" is always within ourselves - to TRY AGAIN FOR SOMETHING BETTER if "we" want to!

    Contracts-Federal/State!

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/robert-samuelson-the-medicaid-albatross/2012/07/22/gJQAAgp42W_story.html?wpisrc=nl_opinions

    Yes, "contracts" between the States and the Federal governments - what a wonderful day it could be, instead of "hate", "anger", and "feuding" that is everywhere now!

    Hello, Yes, thinking about "this" history - it seems that each person needs to understand these "choices" (arm yourself, when you need to - or always look for Pacifistic alternatives, if there are any), and let each person decide, and let each go there own way, and STOP ARGUING! -- Take care, Papa Foote, The Old Goat
