4th Madsen Article:White House-linked operation paid for "vote switching"
Edited on Mon Dec-06-04 04:59 AM by jamboi
A very long, detailed and very damning article. Especially enjoyable are the last few paragraphs discussing what Madsen terms "high crimes" that he alleges the Bush folks have committed. This article focuses primarily on past elections, that lead back to the White House and the Florida governor.

Texas to Florida: White House-linked clandestine operation paid for "vote switching" software

By Wayne Madsen
Online Journal Contributing Writer

December 6, 2004—The manipulation of computer voting machines in the recent presidential election and the funding of programmers who were involved in the operation are tied to an intricate web of shady off-shore financial trusts and companies, shady espionage operatives, Republican Party politicians close to the Bush family, and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) contract vehicles.

An exhaustive investigation has turned up a link between current Florida Republican Representative Tom Feeney, a customized Windows-based program to suppress Democratic votes on touch screen voting machines, a Florida computer services company with whom Feeney worked as a general counsel and registered lobbyist while he was Speaker of the Florida House of Representatives, and top level officials of the Bush administration.

According to a notarized affidavit signed by Clint Curtis, while he was employed by the NASA Kennedy Space Center contractor, Yang Enterprises, Inc., during 2000, Feeney solicited him to write a program to "control the vote." At the time, Curtis was of the opinion that the program was to be used for preventing fraud in the in the 2002 election in Palm Beach County, Florida. His mind was changed, however, when the true intentions of Feeney became clear: the computer program was going to be used to suppress the Democratic vote in counties with large Democratic registrations.

According to Curtis, Feeney and other top brass at Yang Enterprises, a company located in a three-story building in Oviedo, Florida, wanted the program, written in Visual Basic 5 (VB.5) and designed to operate in Windows and be portable to Unix-based vote tabulation systems, to be "undetectable" to voters and election supervisors.

8. Jamboi -- Please read this
I saw your post early this morning and came over to give it a kick ... saw Monkie's post below, so I visited the site s/he mentioned.

http://www.justaflyonthewall.com

Not much there, except for the index page, which has the complete story on it, in detail. Check it out.

But here's the weird thing. I did a google site search to find all the pages on the website. You can go to google and enter "site:justaflyonthewall.com" in the search box.

Here's what you get:
http://www.google.com/search?q=site:justaflyonthewall.com&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&safe=off&filter=0

Now this is important. If you click on the primary link to each page, you'll find that they all come up as the SAME index page. Pretty much the entire website has been deleted and replaced with that long story.

BUT ... the original pages are still archived, so if you click on the "Cached" link under each google entry, you can visit the entire site as it is, and it's very strange. As far as I can tell, this guy Clint Curtis is writing a book ... "Just A Fly On The Wall: An Eyewitness Account - Is the Bush administration involved in lies, corruption and coverup?" ... which he has for sale on the (old) site, cached here.

http://64.233.161.104/search?q=cache:gEilPG540CkJ:www.justaflyonthewall.com/Purchase.htm+site:justaflyonthewall.com&hl=en&ie=UTF-8

It looks like the other pages are excerpts, or possibly chapter sketches from the book, like this. Reads like a CHEAP dime novel.

Does Madsen know about this website? Is this guy Curtis on the up and up? Man ... I'd hate for this to blow up in Madsen's face if this guy is just some nut trying to sell a book.

.rog.

Here are a couple of the cached pages. Again ... don't forget to click on the "CACHED" link at the bottom of each google entry in the link above.

Emily Is Dead

Since the coincidences began, I always carry a 32 automatic. I took it out and snapped in a round. The larger guns are kept inside but even if someone had gained entrance they are each protected with individual combination locks. I wasn’t immediately worried about the rifles being compromised since I was standing in an open clearing in the middle of the woods. Blocked on all sides from the view of anyone else. If someone had planned on shooting me with a rifle, they would have surely already done so.

My concern was for the dogs. Since Champ was external and Emily could be anywhere, I went to his yard first. I found him laying in one of his many sleeping holes taking a nap. When I called him he immediately looked up. He seemed groggy as he climbed to his feet, but he still immediately came over as if to say " I’m thrilled to see you, what would you like to do". I gave Champ an ear scratch and went inside. Maybe everyone was just sleepy today.

When I opened the door I found Emily. Emily was lying in her bed next to my chair. Her front legs dangling over the edge. Her head was partially out of the bed and a pinkish colored foam surrounded her mouth. Drops were also on the floor between her doggy door and her bed. Even from across the room it was clear me that my angel was dead.

Here's another one:

They Know About The Book

I submitted to slightly less than 150 agents out of the literally thousands, when on July 5th I received the following e-mail.

---------------------------------------

From: john smith <?????????11111111111@yahoo.com>

To: MyAddress@juno.com

Subject: They know about the book!!!!

Date: Mon, 5 Jul 2004 08:53:07 -0700 (PDT)



They know about the book. You should not have sent it to a bush supporter. They are going crazy...like they weren't after you already.

So I get to warn you AGAIN. They will do everything they can to keep it from getting published. They are also going to try to take you out again. Don't be alone. They specifically want to limit casualties to just you. As long as they can't catch you alone they won't touch you. You are such a loser.........

Moi

-------------------------------

Even more disturbing was the fact that this e-mail was received so close to the one-year anniversary of the mysterious death of Ray Lenke. He was the investigator that had been secretly working with me to expose the corruption that had taken over our government.

Now my genetic makeup in regards to death threats have always been tempered by large part of ignorance mixed with a good measure of arrogance. As silly as it seems, I have always felt that they just couldn’t get to me. I was on a noble mission. By providing the truthful information to the public. I could help prevent the disastrous results that this country will most surely face if Bush or any of Bush’s group remain in power. I could save lives of America’s children, who would be sent into various meat-grinders around the world in an effort to steal those Countries oil reserves.

10. try googling yang enterprises/feeney or feeney conflict of interest
i agree his site looks pretty simple
and he IS/was selling a book..
i dont know if thats the point though..
i was much more interested in that there ARE reporters out there that know about this story from another angle..it was covered as a campaign conflict of interest
yang enterprises got government contracts..
feeney lobbied for yang enterprises (10+ years?),
feeney used yang offices as campaign headquarters
feeney is EXTREMELY close to jeb bush (was runningmate etc)...
this is from MSM
there were 2 whistleblowers at the time (2000-2002)
one seems to be curtis and the other one was a guy working for the florida department of transport (DOT)
both were fired as far as i can tell..
even if it turns out to be tinfoilhat stuff it seems easier to check than some of theories flying around...and it connects straight to the ""right" people..ie...bush

11. re: documentation
I know ... that's what makes this so interesting. Curtis actually has scans of many of those articles archived on his (original) website. Take a look at this ... the links to html pages do not work, but the links to the jpg image files will give you the scans and screen shots.

http://64.233.161.104/search?q=cache:feeQlsJkRvkJ:www.justaflyonthewall.com/Documentation.htm+site:justaflyonthewall.com&hl=en&ie=UTF-8

And it's interesting that a possible relative ... Henry Curtis ... is on the staff at the Orlando Sentinel.

Check this out.

Add the "http://www." in front of this ... the image is so huge I didn't want to actually link it. Don't know how to give a link for an image w/o it actually appearing.

justaflyonthewall.com/docs/HenrySpy.jpg

Anyhow, "Henry Pierson Curtis, Sentinel staff writer"
