FLORIDA VOTERS CLAIM MACHINES 'BROKEN', VOTED FOR MCBRIDE, MARKED IT AS AS BUSH

"I voted for McBride, but the machine counted it as Bush. It did this three times. The polling worker finally said, 'We have to reprogram this machine. Another person was having the same trouble while I was there.'"

So claimed a caller to Southern Florida's WQAM-AM and the highly-rated radio talkprogram NEIL ROGERS SHOW.

"I'll tell you right now, this election is fixed!" roared Rogers, who has been in the Miami-Ft. Lauderdale market for more than 30 years. "Based on a few early calls, it is going to be a wild, wild time!"

Touch-screen and other high-tech voting machines make their full-scale debut Tuesday.

"The rest of the nation makes fun of Florida, but if we're so "stupid" then why the hell do millions of these people keep moving here?????????"

Maybe because you are stupid enough to let them in? (Humor...don't flame!)

It is when the Radio show in question is The Neil Rogers Show, the same man who plays "Kiss a Nigger Good Morning".

The tawdry campaign against African-Americans in the Bush White House is set to turn uglier in the coming weeks with the release of a new music CD featuring a cover photograph of President Bush greeting National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice with a social kiss - and a track inside titled, "Kiss a N-----r Good Morning."

"Kiss a N----r Good Morning" is performed by "Boca Brian," a South Florida singer whose parodies are regular features on The Neil Rogers Radio Show, heard weekdays on stations in Miami Beach, Ft. Lauderdale and Ft. Myers.

Mr. Rogers, who is white, has a Web site that features an array of anti-Bush material, such as harsh biographies by former Clinton aide Paul Begala and acerbic Texas critic Molly Ivins, as well as links to reports like, "Smoking Gun: The 9/11 Evidence That May Hang George W. Bush."

The CD featuring the Bush-Rice photograph is being sold on Rogers' Web site, which links to an online store called "Radio Holes Audio Comedy Service."

The blurb next to the Bush-Rice cover art includes the line: "A whopping 40 tracks, featuring the hit single, "Kiss a N----r Good Morning."

Radio host Rogers could not be reached for comment. But a spokesman for Radio Holes told NewsMax Wednesday that the Boca cut is a parody about "black people in general," not Ms. Rice in particular, despite the picture of Bush kissing Rice on the cover.

However, another song parody regularly featured on Rogers' show, he said, was indeed directed at the Bush National Security Advisor.

Rogers just happened to play the song - titled "Condoleezza" and sung to the music of Nat King Cole's "Mona Lisa" - on his Wednesday show.

Performed in vocal mannerisms reminiscent of "Amos 'n' Andy," the lyrics expand the attack on Rice delivered last week by washed-up calypso singer Harry Belafonte, who painted the Bush national security chief as a "house slave" in an interview with CNN.

Some lyric excerpts:

"Condoleezza, Condoleezza, what you be doin'?
That neo-facist black-haired token schwartza dog.

"Is you there 'cause you a high-toned public Negro?
Is you their black-haired answer-mammy who be smart?
Does they like how you shine their shoes, Condoleezza?
Or the way you wash and park the whitey's cars.

Thread here.

I wholeheartedly agree! This "crap" was cooked up weeks ago by the dems. I have a sneaky suspicion, if this report is true, the scheme will be exposed - there is just too much scrutiny in Florida right now for it not to be.

You mean, NY, CA, MA, NJ, PA, MD, OH, MI, IL, WI, MN, SD, OR, AR, TN, AL, MS, and GA don't have the same records??? Damn, we do lead in something. That's good to know. I forgot the Northeast and Midwest never, ever have vote fraud problems.

Anyone here seen the old movie, "The Great McGinty"? Hero is a bum who gets his start in politics (eventually becoming governor) by voting 25 times in one day for the machine candidate. If they re-made it today, I suppose it would be set in Florida.

"You've got the same problem in Florida as we have in AZ ... once conservative, and now with relocated socialists and illegals..."

You're right, G, I've watched the state change with you and it's disheartening. Praying the votes for Salmon will be there in the end.

BTW, all of FL is not stupid. Just two or so counties. Have family near Ft. Walton and it's conservative up there.

I really doubt it's a computer code problem.
So that leaves two other possiblities:
The Voter is a DemIdiot OR
It's a Demloser scam.

"I would put the Cubans up against any other immigrant group as far as productivity, strong family units, God fearing, and conservative."

Amen brother.

Hey - you haven't mobilized your militias to deport the carpetbaggers, so you are tarred with the same brush to a small extent.

Isn't Neil Rogers the guy who wouldn't give the results of his last gun related poll on the air because he didn't like the numbers? He sure knows an awful lot about fixing things.

Did you see the piece on O'Reilly last night about the Good Samaritans who are patroling the border, looking for illegals to help with food, water, and TRANSPORTATION inside the US???? I am so outraged. Helping is one thing. But breaking the law by aiding an illegal into the country is sickening. They claim to be doing God's work.

If these dogooders can do this, then why can't another group form to capture illegals and bring them to border patrol- or, just chase them back across?
